I think Avril's new cd is more raw than her first one. I think i like Under My Skin better than the Let Go and i Loved Let Go.

Same here!

That's really good

I read that UMS is #1 on Billboard

[Fallen From Above]

Hey everyone!

I used to post a bit at the Avril board but haven't been on fanforum lately so I haven't had a chance to visit you all over here! I love UMS, it is just completely what I wanted to hear from Avril. You can tell that she had a lot more impact and the sound is defiantely more raw. It's going to do amazingly and it's just proving she is more than a one trick pony. I love all of the songs and I can just listen to the whole thing without skipping a single track. On Let Go I only skipped Sk8r Boi and thats only because it got *so* overplayed here in England. However my favourite track on UMS is definately Fall to Pieces. I just adore it. I could listen to it all day without getting sick of it. It's just beautiful.

finally got to hear the cd today. it's completely awsome and lived up to all my expections and then some.

Originally posted by Mapledonuts I really hate "He Wasn't", though which sucks 'cause Raine Maida (lead singer of Our Lady Peace) produced it. It just seems way too poppy for me.

He Wasn't is definitely the most poppy song, but i like it anyway. except that the "hey hey" part is retarded.

i love UMS! just got it last night and i haven't stopped listening to it. my fave is My Happy Ending. it's really different from Let Go, i think. you can just tell how much she's grown. i can't relate alot to her new songs, but that's okay cos they're good songs. Nobody's Home is really deep. the only songs i would skip are Forgetten and Slipped Away.

"Fall to Pieces" is your song! You're an
inspirational person to everyone you catch eyes
with. You have great feelings for someone and
that's all there is to it. You have faith in
yourself and everyone around you. Life's
keeping right in unison with you.

I already didn't like the song but the "Hey, hey, hey!" part just killed it for me! I felt like I was listening to liveonrelease or something!

The rest of the album is all good, though. It amazes me how she sounds like Chantal Kreviazuk in some of her songs!

[TakeMeAway]

yeah you can definately tell that chantel did some of the writing, which is awesome since ive always been a fan of her music

[last beautiful girl]

I heard 'my happy ending' in a fan video, and loved it, plus if Chantal's doing the writing, it's got to be good. I might pick it up the next time I go out if I hear more songs from it.

[hardlove]

sorry to be dim, but can someone tell me who exactly Chantal is? i mean, i know she wrote alot of songs with Avril, but who is she?

listening to Fall to Pieces.

[*Joie*]

Chantal Kreviazuk (spell?) (Canadian singer)
Shes raine Maida's wife (from Our Lady Peace)

[hardlove]

oh okay. thanks!

[Jordan23]

I have her new CD and it's really good. I like alot of the songs but one that sticks out for me is Together. I can so relate to that one.

[~*Carrie*~]

I Raine from OLP! OLP is one of my favorite bands! I love all the songs on her new CD. The only one I'm not crazy about is "Who Knows" I don't hate it or anything. I just don't love it. I can relate A LOT to "My Happy Ending" and "Forgotten" I can't listen to "Slipped Away" without getting tears in my eyes.
