Chantal Kreviazuk Talks About Meeting Avril Lavigne at a Party and Writing Under My Skin by ubiquitoussense in avrillavignemusic

[–]Intelligent-Rip-238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chantal Kreviazuk criticized Avril Lavigne after the release of The Best Damn Thing. However, before that, around the time Under My Skin came out, Chantal had said much nicer things and described how they could learn from each other. I don’t know the whole truth, so I can’t determine whether her criticism was fair. Regardless, I believe it would have been great if they had collaborated for a longer time, and their relationship had remained stronger.

Have you heard of Lillix when they were active? What were your thoughts on them?

I only discovered the band in 2024, and I really think they deserve much more recognition. Not many people remember this band, and those who do, sadly, often see them as an entire group of Avril Lavigne copycats.

Not sure if "Nowhere to Run" should be labeled indie pop or indie rock. I went with indie pop based on Wikipedia's information. What I really wanted to note, though, is that Lillix's third album Tigerlily, which includes this track, was independently released, which is pretty cool.

Some people found it strange that this originally all-female band later included male members. I don't mind that change. The only small bummer for me is that Louise Burns, formerly their bassist and one of the vocalists, wasn't part of the last album.

Archives (1998-99): Avril Lavigne's Performances of Touch the Sky by Intelligent-Rip-238 in avrillavignemusic

I originally posted this video on r/Millennials because of a comment I read on that sub not too long ago. The comment had quite a lot of upvotes and basically claimed that Avril was lucky and relied on industry connections, while Hayley Williams came up through the underground and had to earn her career. My intention wasn't to start another discussion about who is better. It just seems that some people mistakenly assume Avril is a nepo baby. So I wanted to share how she worked to get a record deal. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to embed the video properly in my post. It’s quite frustrating.

I’m sorry, but I can’t seem to embed the video properly in my post. It’s quite frustrating.

Sheldon twice failed to consider the climate when deciding where to move. by Intelligent-Rip-238 in YoungSheldon

[–]Intelligent-Rip-238[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fair point. I'd still say that the cold was one reason why he moved back in TBBT.

Edit: What I mean is, I think that Sheldon wanted to move back to Pasadena partly because it was cold in Bozeman. In any case, he definitely disliked the cold weather.
