The Official Avril Lavigne Thread !

I have realized that nobody opened a thread for this punk princess! What a shame!
Her previous two albums , "Let's go!" and "Under my skin", are superb!

Recently, I have checked iTunes store and found her new songs, called "Keep Holding On". Finally, she is back!

I hope her third album is coming soon because she releases a new song!!!

I believe it's Let Go

I do love Avril though. I don't care if people say she's a punk-wannabe or crap like that; I think her music's wonderful and doesn't need to be labeled. Under My Skin was a fantastic album. It's rare that I like every song off a CD in English, but this is one of those cases. Every track is wonderful. Take Me Away very well may be my favorite.

Avril's voice is a little irritating at times, her lyrics kind iof suck, but I do like her. I'll excuse her lyrics because... she's young. Not all young people are these great, deep, introspective wordsmiths. Not all people in general are.

The whole "PUNK/POSEUR" crap just annoys the hell out of me, though. Move on, population. It doesn't matter anymore. Listen to the music for whether or not you enjoy it, not what genre it "properly" belongs to (when the hell did THEY create punk and decide what it should or shouldn't sound like anyway? That whole genre labeling game is obnoxious). Both her albums were really very good (although in the Under My Skin pictures, she looks... disgusting, like she needs a few showers), but I'll give Let Go the nod here for its poppiness, for having a lighter, mistier feel... basically for feeling fresher and more outdoors and colorful than Under My Skin.

Although... Nobody's Fool sucked (all because of her god-awful rapping).

Yes, she did look terrible in the Under My Skin promos. It's all gothic raccoon went paranoid.

I love a lot of her songs, mostly her singles.

There will never be a pop/rock song as truly great as My Happy Ending. It's just amazing. So damn replayable, it was played on my local radio until the start of this year frequently. Never bores me and my friends too, perfection.

Also worth mentioning is Mobile. Oh my GOD this song is great. It's almost as good os My Happy Ending. And then Slipped Away is very pretty and touching. He Wasn't was catchy but rather empty and not very appealing after a while.

Ah... Avril Lavigne really do deserve her own thread. I really like her and her music alot. Especially, when she finally startin' to doll up herself. Wooo... Pretty bird! Maybe i dun't like Beyonce anymore if Avril keep dollin' herself up as women.

I read on Wikipedia that she's gunna release a new album soon next year on April. I kinda doubt it's true though. Anyone know 'bout this?

I like Avril's music. Two of my favorite songs by her are Complicated and My Happy Ending.

I personally love Tomorrow, I'm With You, My World, and Things I'll Never Say (the way she sings the chorus is hilarious) the best.

God, I want more Let Go-type songs ;_;

I liked her more when other people wrote her songs and stuff. I mean it's nice to be original but she was really good when she was faker.

I love Avril, she has some really catchy songs, and some nice lyrics.
I went to her concert last year, and man, it was awesome, she was really nice to the audience!
I cant wait for her next album!
My favorite ones by her are: Fall to pieces, Don't tell me, Losing Grip and Mobile.

Me too, it was the first american album in which I liked all songs at first listen...Under My Skin was not as good imo, it took way too much time for some of the songs to grow on me. It does have my favorite song by her though: "Don't Tell Me"..there was a time I would listen to that song on repeat at exponential proportions. It's pretty rare for me to keep repeating a song on and on.

avril said 'keep holding on' was just written for the Aragorn movie, and the style of that song was nothing like the new album. she said her new album will suprise everyone. so i'm thinking she's trying a new sound.

Polka.

(I still need to hear Keep Holding On... and I want the new album. I want a more mature Avril who doesn't write sucky lyrics. Although those were excuseable given her age...)

Better Avril lyrics than JoJo lyrics, IMO.
