[Edit this paragraph] Debut history
Avril Lavigne was born in the small town of Napanee, Canada in 1984. She has loved singing and performing since she was a child. He most likes to create music with the guitar. He was later discovered by Arista Records and has since embarked on the career of a singer. Different from the ever-changing styles of idols such as Britney, Avril Lavigne, who loves skateboarding, emphasizes being her own straightforward self and always likes to wear a vest, baggy pants and a black tie to attend concerts. "Let Go", which was first released, can be said to be an instant hit. The debut album, which aims to have a full rock flavor, has been well-received in terms of quality and sales volume.
No ordinary! This is already a mild adjective for Avril Lavigne. She is a woman who leads pop culture, an explosive soul, and a wild and uninhibited girl. She was one of those weirdos who could arouse people's admiration for her voice at the age of about two.
She is the kind of small-town girl who cannot sit obediently in class, but is full of confidence and determination, and travels to New York and Los Angeles to hone her creative skills. She is the kind of rebellious seventeen-year-old youth who relies entirely on her own strength to succeed at any cost and has forward-thinking ideas. "I just debuted. I want to be myself clearly. I write about my feelings and never care about what other people think," Avril said frankly. "I want to wear my true colors, act my true colors, and sing my true colors."
Obviously, Avril was born to do these crazy things. As the middle child, a child who "always wants to be the center of attention", she is destined to leave Napanee, a small town with a population of only 5,000 people in Ontario, Canada. "I remember when I was very young, I would stand on my bed as if it were a stage and I would sing at the top of my lungs, imagining thousands of people surrounding me." Starting from the bedroom, she would sing wherever and whenever she wanted. She could sing, singing hymns in church or attending music festivals, then performing country music at fairs and singing competitions until she was discovered by Arista Records.
After sending out videos of her singing performances to various record companies, she received a reply from Nettwerk Records and informed her that they hoped to sign her a contract as a demo singer, which she had been waiting for for a long time. It was a great opportunity for her to leave this small town. "Later, they also asked me to help write lyrics, which attracted me very much, so I moved to New York because I wanted to create with them for a period of time."
This development sounds simple, but the development of fate changed Avril from then on. “One day, a person from Arista came to the studio and heard me recording, and then he immediately invited “LA” Red (Arista’s boss) to come and listen,” she continued: “I sang two songs for him, and the result was He's about to sign me, and I haven't had a chance to talk to other labels yet, but that's really rare, I mean, it takes 10 years for someone to talk about a contract, so I'm very, very, very lucky!"
What excites "LA" Rhett and all the staff is Avril's vibrant personality and innocent charm, as well as her sweet pop voice, which is similar to Natalie and Lisa Lopp, and Alani. The wildness of Smolissette and Courtney Love. "Even if someone says this to me, it won't make me change," she said. "I don't care what others say. I just want to be myself. I won't imitate others. I'm not a bad boy. I just want to be high every day." Just live happily and be yourself honestly, I really hope everyone can see this."
At the age of sixteen, she moved to Manhattan to work on her debut album. Avril is immersed in the creative process. “I love creating,” she explains. "When I'm in a bad mood or really need to get out of that mood, I pick up the guitar. Sometimes I feel like my guitar is my therapist."
Despite the restrictions in New York During this period, Avril actually lived in the recording studio, but her efforts did not pay off at first. "I got to work with these incredibly talented people, but I just didn't feel that way; those songs didn't represent me," she admits. "Then they started talking about finding someone to write songs for me to sing, but I had to write them myself. I had to make my own music. It was really stressful at the time, but I never thought about giving up." On the contrary. Land, she flew to the west coast. Los Angeles gave her the fresh start she needed.
That's where she met producer and creator Clif Magness, "and I was like, 'Yeah! I've found my guy!'" she says. Got enthusiastic. 'We just hit it off so well because he just lets me be the boss, he really understands me and lets me do my own thing. ’ Under the helm of Magness and later the production group The Matrix, the songs written for “Let Go” began to be released one after another. Soon, Avril also worked with the "online agent" who once popularized Sarah McLachlan, Dido, Coldplay and Sum 41. Company” (Nettwerk Management) got on the line.
Avril is very excited about the results of the record. “Over the past year, I’ve really transformed into a creator.
"Complicated" does not describe a particular person. Basically it's a song about life, people in disguise and relationships. As for one of her favorite songs, "Losing Grip," she says, "It's about an ex-boyfriend of mine who wasn't emotionally meeting my needs." Avril said with a smile, "But it doesn't matter now, at least I wrote a good song because of it." "
Avril Lavigne's music is enough to move both girls and boys, as well as some adventurous adults, and she is working hard in this direction. "I can't wait to appear. I want to rock the world! I want people to know that my music is real and honest and comes from the heart. I just want to stay true to myself.

[edit This paragraph] Album introduction
First album
Let GoAvril always hoped that one day she could stand on the stage and sing, but she did it. When the record company heard her singing, she signed a contract immediately, while some people would take 10 years to negotiate a contract, so even she considers herself very lucky!
After moving to New York, Avril Lavigne immediately started creating records. When she got her first album CD in 2002, she embarked on a completely different life path. After releasing his first album, he immediately became popular and became a popular idol singer. And she is not yet 18 years old. Probably even she herself didn't expect that she would be so successful.
The album titled "Let Go" sold 9.6 million copies worldwide, and her hairless style quickly gained support from a large number of music fans. Rolling Stone magazine selected Avril Lavigne as the 2002 winner of the year. People of the Year, and Newsweek even announced in advance that Avril Lavigne would be the Artist of the Year in 2003.
In the "Let Go" album, her ostentatious singing voice is full of energy, her voice is as clear as crystal, and her lyrics reveal a pure feminine style. "Anything But Ordinary" is an ode to individual uniqueness; the guitar-driven first single "Complicated" is a concise song that hits the mark on Love Hustlers; and the string-tinged "I'm With You" reflects The softer side of Avril is revealed: songs such as "Losing Grip" and "Unwanted" bravely face the heaviness and sadness required to deal with the themes of rejection and betrayal; and the following "My World" and the metaphorical "Mobile" ” perfectly expands Avril’s life experience.
“I had this awe-inspiring opportunity to live my dream. I traveled all over the place, flew here and there, and encountered different things every day,” she explained. . "This is my lifestyle, but I don't want to live a normal life, otherwise I will feel bored." In short, this is an "absolutely extraordinary" album. We are also looking forward to Avril's next album and hope she will do better!
Second Album
Under My Skin Lavigne's first album "Spread Your Wings" released in 2002 has established a unique and unique album in the minds of fans around the world. With a clear impression of being independent, Avril was elected as the most representative female voice and appearance of the new generation in one fell swoop. After achieving astonishing sales of nearly 15 million albums worldwide and being nominated for eight Grammy Awards, this Canadian rock girl is about to take the world by storm with her new masterpiece "Under My Skin".
If you expect that this time Avril Lavigne will bring the same style of songs to the world as her last album, then you are totally wrong. Because just because Avril is Avril, she is definitely not an artist who will rest under the shining halo of awards and countless rock laurels. The album "Under My Skin" opens with the very dramatic songs "Take Me Away" and "Together", which are intended to serve as an excellent setting for the first wave of hit songs "Don't Tell Me" Emotional setting. The single "Don`t Tell Me" is full of heavy rhythmic guitar accompaniment and is definitely a best-selling single popular on the radio. At the same time, this song is full of female power and asserts the awareness of female sovereignty. It extends the artistic conception of the single "Super Complex Complicated" from the album "Flying High" and continues its deeper meaning.
In addition, if music fans around the world hear the single "He Wasn`t", they will definitely scream at the guitar lead in it. In addition, the song "Who Knows" makes people can't help but shake their heads along and blend into the rhythm. The single "Freak Out" makes the audience spin, and its violent pop power is guaranteed to keep everyone hooked. Some of the more slow, emotional and slightly worrying singles, such as "Forgotten" and "Nobody's Home", also use the notes and their meanings to nakedly present the deep melancholy and sad side of Avril's heart. In front of everyone.
Avril Lavigne said: "I have grown a lot in the past two years. I have experienced many things and experienced many ups and downs in life. My songs are my experience and expression of the things around me. , for me, every song is a very private personal experience and the most real life experience.
"This time *** the producers who also participated in Avril Lavigne's new album include: Butch Walker (producer of the Marvelous 3), Raine Maida (producer of Our Lady Peace), Tang Gilmore (Don Gilmore, producer of Linkin Park and Pearl Jam)
Avril also co-wrote 12 songs on the "Under My Skin" album. And these songs are all about true stories that happened to Avril Lavigne.
The third album
The Best Damn Thing "The Best Damn Thing" is a dazzling, improvised song. The guitar accompaniment comes in the form of an instantly memorable melody, a chorus and an unchanging rebellious rock attitude that marks her departure from darkness, and the tone seems to be a reflection on "Under My Skin" and Avril also enjoys it. To create some context for her lyrics, which, as she says, are not directly from her diary, we now hear a series of her works that show how she slowly developed as a songwriter and singer from that song. From the funky debut "I Can Do Better" (one of Avril's personal favorites) to the irresistible lead single "Girlfriend" (an unexpected hip-hop twist on a punk rock melody) rhythm, driving harmonies, handclaps and rap-like girl group harmonies); to the touching love song "Keep Holding On," recorded for 20th Century Fox's legendary film "Eragon."
As a well-trained artist with a keen sense of pop music, Avril devoted her passion to all aspects of the production of "The Best Damn Thing" album: from independently composing her own songs (she emphasized: 'In the production of this record There was no company A&R involved in the process, I knew exactly what I wanted to do, right down to choosing the producer and musical partners, and she went back and forth in the studio to adjust the guitar tone and drum beats almost harshly. All the hard work culminated in her best album to date. "I never thought it would be that much fun to make a record," she said. Tech, including Dr. Luke (Pink, Lady Sovereign), Butch Walker (Avril's old friend who worked on "Under My Skin"), Rob Cavallo (Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Goo Goo Dolls), and Avril Lavigne Husband of Deryck Whibley (Sum 41 member). Regarding cooperating again with Dr. Luke, who had already created several outstanding songs for her previous album ***, she said: "Luke and I have great communication and chemistry." Their production in the studio There's a light-hearted vibe throughout: You can hear Avril laughing on "I Can Do Better," and she says you can even hear a beer bottle blowing during the last few harmonies of "Girlfriend."
There are four songs on the album "The Best Damn Thing" that Avril wrote with her former bandmate Evan Taubenfeld, namely "Innocence", "Hot", and "One of Those Girls" ” and “Contagious”, “Evan is one of my best friends in the world”, she said very affectionately, “He has been by my side from day one”. Of course, all these upbeat and energetic songs will come to life in live performances planned for later this year, for which Avril has not only organized a new band but also recruited two backup dancers ('I even Being asked to dance for the first time', she said with a smile, 'this will definitely be a highlight').
