Avril's all growns up

[aznboi9]

I have nothing useful to say here. I don't like her music or anything; but I just wanted to state for the record of how surprised I was when I saw Avril performing at the Olympic Closing Ceremony. I only remembered her as the little punk grunge-wannabe. But she cleaned up nice and looked pretty hot, like a woman instead of girl. At least in my opinion.

Ok, that was it. You can all go back to ignoring me now.

she did sure look good, i didn;t even know that was her at first cause she looked so diffrent

 

[mustangjoe]

I bid $300 to dink her.

...

Even seen the movie "Carrie" ?

I thought they shoulda had Sarah McLaughlin doin' a tune. Least she can fuckin' sing!

 

[wolverine]

At least she's dispensed with the phony punk-tart posturing.

 

[badwolfcgy]

She has definitely grown up. She looks good as a blonde.

I have one thing to say to this post, my pooning pockets are ready

I kind of miss her butt cheeks hanging out her jeans actually.

Amen to that, Fuzzy. Sarah Mc has a killer voice. Avril couldn't carry a tune in a fuckin' bucket.

I'm also a big kd lang fan, but I suspect she's a bit too butch for the stuffy Olympic crowd.

And what was Alanis doing that night? Couldn't they get Alanis????

And I'll bet your all glad I didn't bring up Celine's name....opps!

I personally i like Avril's music....I think she has good songs...also considering she has alot of say in her songwriting.
That's more than what alot of girls her age can say. Alot of their music is mostly written by silent songwriters... Avril is a growing girl musically...she'll be around for awhile...wait until she's in her early 30's....
she's good...

Cheers

I find her kind of whiney. A couple of her earlier tunes were very catchy and I can see why she is popular with young girls but I have to agree that she owes much of her 'voice' to good sound engineering.

On the other hand, her butt cheeks...

 

[LonelyGhost]

sarah's got a good voice but hasn't written anything decent for a while now ... and she's from Nova Scotia!

What about Nelly Furtado? Born and raised in Victoria and she can sing.

Or Diane Krall ... Nanaimo!

I'll give her credit for writing her own songs. Even if I don't like someone's music, I'll always give them respect for writing it themselves; that's more than what 90% of pop artists out there will do. Personally, I didn't think that she really did a bad job at the closing ceremonies.

She wouldn't be a bad choice; maybe they're saving her for the opening ceremonies. But she does a pretty whiney voice as well.

Are those her tits??


I think she still looks like a girl, not a woman.

What about Nelly Furtado

Man I can't stand that latest tune about equal races, with the ethno-banjo sound etc. It just sounds like naive save-the-world "world music" wanna-be mentally deficient stuff, and it sounds awful too. She was better off doing the hip hop shit with those Swollen Members rap guys a few years ago ("Breathe").

Still my fave young female singer is Natalie Imbruglia.... what a hot babe!!!

Really?
It was my understading that she's had a group of people write songs for her.
Hell, it took 4 people to write Sk8er Boi.

I'm glad that you didn't bring up Ann Murray or Nana Mouskouri.

Avril was supposed to be introduced to the pop world as the anti-Brittney.
Meaning that Avril was supposed to write her own songs, have an edge, have some street credibility, not care about changing into a dozen costumes per concert.
Avril was supposed to be real.

That's what I thought as well. I was just going off of Smother's post which gave me the impression that she wrote her own songs. I really don't know either way. If she write's her own songs, then good for her; if she doesn't, then whatever.
