It's a good freshman CD that contains catchy songs that are pop/rock inspired. There are songs that contain deep lyrics and others that are just simple. But overall the CD is wonderful. But the best Avril Lavigne CD yet is her sophomore album named Under My Skin.

this is avril lavigne first album which i think is her best album when she came out with the music video complicated i was 11 in the 5th grade 2003 i thought it would be cool and fun to hang out with avril lavigne. i liked under my skin but the best damn thing was a bit disapointing i cant wait for when ever her next album comes out.

"Let Go" was quite a piece of work for a 17 year old kid. Don't know (or care) how Avril has amassed such a large group of "haters". As someone who was around when punk first came to be and was an active player on the Boston punk scene, I'd remind all those ranting about "fake punk", etc, should keep in mind that Johnny Rotten & crew (and most other "real punks" of the era) were, JUST LIKE AVRIL, middle-class kids from the 'burbs who were largely "acting out". I can't attest to Ms. Lavigne's "sk8er" cred, but as a professional musician, I can attest to the high quality of the songwriting and musical performances on this cd. Did she get assitence from "The Matrix" crew? Undoubtedly - as did EVERY OTHER ACT they produced. Having seen her perform, I have to agree that she sometimes has trouble w/ pitch, her voice is a bit thin, & it appears her guitar playing skills are quite limited (although contrary to one mis-informed reviewer, there is indeed a G chord in "Complicated") - but many singer-songwriters can't do much more than strum chords. All I can say to all the "haters" out there is I'd love to hear what you could come up with at 17 years old - I've spent literally years in the studio, as both a "hired gun" and recording my own material, and I'd be ecstatic if the results were half as good as this album. Hell, if I could write just one song as good as "Complicated", I'd be a happy man. Any of you ranting about her inability to sing/write/play ever actually been in a studio? I thought not. Were any of you there in the studio when "Let Go" was recorded to verify the claims you make re: her not writing any of the material, etc? Again, I thought not.

This album, in my opinion, is Avril Lavigne's best. There's just an honesty to it, in her voice and her lyrics, that made me respect her right off. Every song is good, there won't be many you skip over. I would recommend this album over her latest, hands down.
