Rubinoos versus Avril
Category: News and Politics

As many of you may be aware, a band called The Rubinoos are suing Avril Lavigne, RCA Records, Apple and myself. They claim that we stole from their song "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend".

I have held back from addressing this matter publicly, but it is time for me to share my views.

Before this issue arose, I had never heard of this band and I had never heard of their song.

An independent and highly respected musicologist found no copyright infringement:

"When the various lyric and music elements of both Boyfriend and Girlfriend are examined it is readily apparent that although these compositions contain some similarity in one section of each work, they are overall distinctively different compositions. Furthermore, the lyric elements that are the same or similar are not protectable or original with "Boyfriend". Therefore any legal claim of infringement by "I Wanna Be You're Boyfriend" against "Girlfriend" would be unjustified."

I am also confused by the point of the contrived video clips of the chorus from "Girlfriend" followed by the chorus from the Rubinoos "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend" that have been posted on the internet. These have been radically digitally altered and transposed to make the songs sound more similar than they are. Playing the Rubinoos' song along with Avril's video, attempts to further confuse the public and connect two separate things. It is odd that if the songs are so close, they must be manipulated so much. When the songs are listened to in their entirety, it is evident that they are two very different songs with very different meanings.

I have come across thousands of songs that are similar. When I was 13 and learned to play "Wild Thing" on guitar, I soon realized I was playing the same power chords as "Louie Louie". Another example that you may be familiar with is: "Do You Love Me" by The Contours and "Twist and Shout" by The Isley Brothers.

All musical styles rely on melody, rhythm, harmony, and lyrics that are reused in an infinite variety of combinations. There are bound to be innocent similarities between compositions, especially within a given genre. An obvious example is the blues. There are thousands of songs with the same form, the same chords and many of the same lyric ideas. These elements define the genre.

Most importantly, I would like to address the hurtful and untrue
statements being made about Avril's songwriting. It is not possible for anyone to state what an artist contributes to the creative process unless they witness it themselves. I have written with Avril and know that she is a talented songwriter with great ideas. Don't take my word for it. Ask Butch Walker, Evan Taubenfeld or The Matrix. Her success remains undeniable.

Sincerely - Dr. Luke

you know, I'm not going to even bother arguing against that, because that is the worst argument I've ever seen in my life. At least Mugshot knew what they were talking about.

And of course. That lawsuit had almost nothing to go on. lol.

People are being so mean to Avril unfairly ... Girlfriend is just one song. Even *if she used that song as inspiration, it still doesnt make her any less of a songwriter.

[Shane!]

of course the remix sales counted as regular sales

[M Z N A]

They get the best damn cash. Of course they show LOVE!
