I’m listening to Avril Lavigne’s album Under My Skin right now.
I’ve always liked her music (yes, even Sk8r Boy). I went and bought the CD after I heard the first single from this album, My Happy Ending.
For me, one of the good songs is Track 4 (”He Wasn’t”). This song reminds me of the old Avril. You know, the angry little Canadian rock singer. “Freak Out” is another song that reflects her rebellious side.
I like “My Happy Ending” because it reminds me how we all have our dreams shattered with an ended relationship. “How Does It Feel” is written with a very nice chord progression.
The songs in this album speak about deeper issues such as the longing for love, broken relationships and failed relationships. Perfect if you’ve just broken up with someone.
My version of the CD came with four bonus tracks. In the song “Tomorrow” she sings accompanied by an acoustic guitar. I like this song also because she showcases her ability to blend with the backing instrument and to add dynamics to the song using only her voice.
Oh look, here’s a link to her CD on Amazon. *looks innocent* What a co-incidence.
