Avril Lavigne – Complicated (Official Video)

For a teenage birthday, I’m gifting Avril Lavigne’s debut song.

It was groundbreaking that a 17-year-old girl, with her unique T-shirt-and-tie fashion, led the girls’ rock scene.

She’s still active today, and she gives us courage.

Selena Gomez & The Scene – Love You Like A Love Song

This is the one best love song chosen by teens! The song is called “I Love You Like a Love Song.” In the music video, a tone-deaf, mysterious man suddenly starts singing, and then a Chinese person speaks Japanese.

The MV makes no sense at all, but that’s exactly what makes it interesting—definitely worth watching!
