Need help with a song

[nlmcp]

My 8 year old is dying to get the song Complicated.

She has no clue who sings it, nor do I. Plus I have no idea if it is a "kid friendly" song. Any ideas?

There are days I feel old and this is one of them.

The song's by a girl called Avril Lavigne"Complicated".As for the song being kid friendly, here are the lyrics


Uh huh, life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh, that's the way it is
Cause life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh that's the way it is

Chill out whatcha yelling' for?
Lay back it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
you will see
I like you the way you are
When we're drivin' in your car
and you're talking to me one on one but you've become

Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're tryin' to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
and you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
and promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
no no no

You come over unannounced
dressed up like you're somethin' else
where you are and where it's at you see
you're making me
laugh out when you strike your pose
take off all your preppy clothes
you know you're not fooling anyone
when you've become

Somebody else round everyone else
Watching your back, like you can't relax
Trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
and You fall and you crawl and you break
and you take what you get and you turn it into
honesty
promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
no no no

Chill out whatcha yelling for?
Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see

Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back, like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool, you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
and you fall and you crawl and you break
and you take what you get and you turn it into
honesty
promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
no no no

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like your somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
You fall and you crawl and you break
and you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
promise me I'm never gonna find you fake this
no no no

ok........thank you.

guess we have to check it out (life was easier when all they listened to was Disney)

[Jewelsy]

Does anyone know what song was played at the beginning of 'Without a Trace' on 02/07/03??? It was a male singer, kinda sounded like Dave Matthews (hell, maybe it is...)??? Any help would be appreciated.

[nlmcp]

I recall the song, it was pretty good but I have no clue at all who sang it.

[John]

Sorry Jewelsy, I checked the press release from CBS for that episode, and it doesn't say. Hopefully someone here can help you.

[Jewelsy]

Thanks Nancy and John. I taped the show, but not the ending credits. I keep on listening to the song thinking that there will be some hint of recognition, but not yet.

Dont watch the show. But A singer who sounds like Dave Mathews whos getting alot of airplay is John Mayer he sings the song "your body is a wonderland"

[Paulie]

David Gray sometimes sounds like Dave Matthews, too. Can you give us some lyrics? That would help.

[Jewelsy]

I'll try to give you some lyrics, although they tone down the music alot while the actors are talking.

A few bars with simple piano:

Oh know, what's this?
a spider web and I'm caught in the middle
So I turn to ________
the thought of all the stupid things I've done

And I've never meant to cause you sorrow
and I've never meant to do you wrong
and _______ if I ever caused you trouble
oh, I never meant to do you harm

Then it goes back to the simple, pretty piano. I checked out Towerrecords.com and Amazon.com to listen to some of the tracks by John Mayer and David Gray, and although they both sound like the 'mystery' singer, nothing matched.

This is driving me nuts.
