"Sk8er Boi" (pronounced "skater boy") is a song by Canadian singer-songwriter Avril Lavigne, released as the second single from her debut album, Let Go (2002). It was written by Lavigne and the Matrix (Scott Spock, Lauren Christy, and Graham Edwards), and produced by the Matrix. The song combines punk rock, pop-punk, power pop, and alt-pop styles, which lyrically tells a story told from the singer's viewpoint about her rocker boyfriend and a girl he knew in high school who rejected him because he was a skateboarder and she did ballet.

Hiya Frank. So. I like my drum track. I think it's ok, except, I'm playing over the vocal track in the bridge. What do you about the track. I mean, I feel like I'm in the groove. What do you think?

@Carol Grand: Thanks. <3 u 2. We can keep it for now if you want but I think it should be redone after your vocal track comes in. It will sound ott with your vocal at the bridge, and it's not quite right. Also, the song is just a blast to play.

Also, is that intro count the right tempo? I start on 3, and I'm not there, start on four, not there either.
