A place for Avril Fans worldwide to discuss all things Avril, from her music to her dress sense to her fragrance's if its Avril related lets hear it

I was never a fan before this year; I mean I liked her and Sk8er Boi and Girlfriend and what have you but never a real fan. I randomly brought Goodbye Lullaby and it's an amazing album and it's a shame that after being such a megastar and so big she's returned with such little fanfare.

i will always have a soft spot for Avril, i think her live gigs are amazing! my two daughters have grown up with her, and the first two albums always still get played in here, the third one..not so much

Ouch.

You what?

Let Go is one of the best pop albums since 2000 And UMS is my favourite album by her.

TBDT was a mess and it's what ruined her in my opinion, alot of people asociate her with just 'Girlfriend' and this bratty music.

Goodbye Lullaby albeit the singles and the other Max Martin co-writes is a solid album, beautiful vocals and well written songs and it was good to see er go it alone in terms of writing and production.

Fantastic artist, one of the best over the last 10 years or so.

My Happy ending was one of the best rock songs over this period of time as well.

My Happy ending is such a great track isn't it? Love it.

Anyone else think Remember When and Everybody Hurts would make good singles?

Yeah the bridge in that song is awsume, she hits the high notes really well live.

IMO I think the album is sort of too diverse to really get any real hits off it, most of the songs are not your average pop chart pap so doubt they will really sell that well.

Yeah i meant by good singles as in for her reputation

I think any of the proper songs on the album would make a good single in terms of reputation as they will show off what a talent she is.

For me wish you were here is a great ballad.

by far one of the, if not the, best bridges/middle-eights I've heard!

Cant disagree, incredible bit of music, not sure if it was Avril or Butch who wrote the bridge but it sure was a classic bit of writing.

Butch wrote the verses and oh oh parts (those parts were already written before he took it to Avril as he was using them for a song of his own), not sure where i got that from but remember reading it a lng time ago.

Would guess it was mostly Butch, he is a good songwriter, some of avril's best songs she wrote with Butch.

A classic song and one of Avrils best wihtout a doubt.

I also love nobodys home which she wrote with Ben Moody ex Evanescence and fall to pieces, another underrated track.
Under my skin had some classics on

Nobody's Home remains my favourite Avril song - a modern classic that remains vastly underrated to me. Under My Skin is a great album, but overall Goodbye Lullaby is her best IMO as I like every song on it!

I love her music, have had Everything Back But You stuck in my head for days

This thread is dead.

Anyway I can't get enough of her new song 'Here's to Never Growing Up'

I love Avril's new song Here's to never growing up.

I do too! Do we have any album details yet?

Not that I know of. Did you watch her perform on the voice?

so do I

Comes out in September.

Next single is called 'Rock n Roll' but she hasn't described the song.

There's a song called 'Bad Girl' which has Marilyn Manson contributing vocals on.

'17' which she performed live a few weeks back:

'Hello Kitty' which is her first fully electronic song.
She described the album as a mixture of Heavier Rock, pop-rock, piano and string ballads and some fun pop like HTNGU. (Her descriptions are normally vague though)
