It's sad now she wants to work with the Darkness only. I was hoping that being with Raine Maida and his wife might a) teach her to actually write songs (rather than say.... modifying a couple of words of someone else and saying she wrote it), and b) sing.

Speaking of which, i've just seen Our Lady Peace Live DVD is out (I thought it was just on CD), so woot, i'm gonna get that. 35 sodding dollars from Amazon though. Why has pop stuff gotta be so expensive?

Thanx for the tip, but only use Ebay when I have to, like something really rare. At least I know it'll be a brand new copy, unscratched. Plus there's been problems, so I know I know if I get it on ebay i'll end up getting a dodgy one. It's not too bad I suppose, 20 quid, the price of a UK new release, it's just when you buy loads of punk ones for like $15, suddenly one at $35 makes you baulk a bit. Especially, when the band would probably end up getting the same amount of money anyway. Still thats major labels for ya. Such is life.

raine has been a producer on her album, his wife contributed towards half of the songs currently written, to be released later this month.

and she makes it no secret that chantel kreviazuk was an inspiration to her, as they spent many a hotel moment co-writing, they learn off each other.

im just listening to the new album and i will say..........

i had all the faith in the her and she has done me proud!!!!!!!

i can see this getting to number 1 in the album charts!

swoop101 · 11-05-2004, 21:55

Yes I have to agree, the new album is quite good.

Funny, but I PMed Kronas about the new album less than a minute before he posted. Must have known it was time for another of his Avril post's

kronas · 11-05-2004, 21:58

its more then good its breathtaking..........

heard the acoustic final track ?

how she has improved her voice ?

EDIT: she has no need to use 'auto tune' on the album

swoop101 · 11-05-2004, 22:06

It is a good track, her voice is improving as she is learning to relax and her voice is maturing quite nicely.
You never know, more people might start to like her.

i always knew she had it in her, 'freak out' makes me laugh, but its a great song, songs like 'togethor' are soothing, quality utter quality.......

swoop101 · 11-05-2004, 22:09
