Initially I thought Avril a talented singer in her own right, but in her latest work she's sounds like a mini-Chantal, which I'm sure Chantal finds grating. Stick to your own style Avril! And Avril should have known better than to title her piece the exact same as Chantal's. There's no excuse for poor memory (i.e. "oops - it was sent to me so long ago, i forgot.") She could have selected another single word to capture the meaning of her song...but obviously took the easy route. Any listener can hear that Avril mimics Chantal’s singing style.

Lyrically and musically Avril's "Contagious" shares nothing with Chantal's submission, only the titles are the same. Nobody, not even the mighty Chantal Kreviazuk, has sole ownership of a single word title. That's the real reason why she doesn't sue, there's nothing to sue about and she knows it.
