Okay, I agree that everyone has 'off' days. Problem is, I've never heard her having an 'on' day. I've heard Jemini sound better live! Live on TOTP: appalling. Live on CD:UK: appalling. Live on Radio 1: appalling (I imagine the sound bites are still on the Radio 1 website somewhere). And though I hate to use the old "A friend told me" bollocks to argue a point, a friend who
did go and see Lavigne in concert said that she didn't sing a note in tune for the whole thing.
If you could point me in the direction of some decently-sang live tracks then I will be happy to rescind my argument, but I think some
serious filtering went on if it only took two takes to record Complicated.
