Avril Lavigne Girlfriend Lyrics

Songwriters: Lavigne, Avril

“Girlfriend” a song by Canadian singer Avril Lavigne, is the lead single from her third album, The Best Damn Thing (2007). It was produced by Lukasz Gottwald. “Girlfriend” became Lavigne’s biggest hit in the United States, where it reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.

The song involves Lavigne proclaiming a crush on a boy currently with his girlfriend and features the typical 80′s pop-punk influence and power pop of her earlier songs. Lavigne said on the DVD side of the deluxe edition of The Best Damn Thing that in the bridge when the listener hears hand clapping, the accompanying giggling was created by Lavigne and Gottwald, despite it sounding like a girl.
