I wonder if the Robinoos should worry about the Rolling Stones suing them, You decide see the two video below:

So the Stones and the Rubinoos have the same chords in that chorus.. Avril chorus at least are different chords.

The following statement was released with permission at 7:05 am PT by Smash Records on behalf of Dr BLT and April Latrene and the Extremes:

In all fairness, I don't really believe she intentionally ripped off the song, and I also think she is a great performer, singer and entertainer. But hey, her controversy is grist for my parody mill, and so I have released this:

yeah but the Rubinoos didn't sing hey hey you you I wanna be your cloud or hey hey you you get off of my boyfriend.

Whoever printed this story is using the wrong line of Avrils song to compare. It is very misleading. What she does is a lot worse than that.

She actually has a line in the chorus where says hey hey you you I wanna be your girlfriend.

not simply, i don't LIKE your girlfriend. I will agree that line is different.

But the line used in Avril's chorus over and over is identical to the Rubinoos with the exception of the gender for obvious reasons.

Avril can't perform live, can't write her own music and I have no idea how she got a record deal.Not all of our generation is fooled by these so called artists these labels are signing. So her writer babysitter guy got caught stealing a song for her to sing.The songs are identical.He thought that no one would remember this band from the 70's and that they would not resurface to claim whats theirs.She's made herself look worse by denying it.She's not talented enough to write anything.Get a clue people.

Avril doesn t need to steal songs, because is a good songwriter. She got a record deal for her singing talent.
