Reviews Customer Reviews for Let Go One of the Best Rating: This is like one of the best CD I bought!! Its awesome! It isn't really, really good, but it made me listen to it at least two songs a day, I got addicted to it. You will only like this Cd if you like Avril Lavigne, and she friggin rocks!!!
Customer Reviews for Let Go Cd A great debut from a great artist... Rating: Before purchasing "Let Go," I actually had bought "Under My Skin," which I thought was a stunning album. With "Let Go," although not as good as her sophomore release, Avril still meets her audience's needs with a great collection of rock/pop hooks that are sure to be stuck in your head. Each song has it's own unique style, my personal favorite being "Anything But Ordinary," which has such a great melody! It's very fun and upbeat, as are most of the songs, with the exception of "Tomorrow," a very unique song with a haunting melody.
Some standouts on this album include "Anything But Ordinary," "Naked," "Complicated," "Loosing Grip," and "Unwanted," and "Sk8er Boi," just to name a few. Avril belts out several tunes, and all of the songs were written by her... showing her wonderful musicianship. She also plays the guitar... and can sing very well (obviously).
Of course, this album isn't perfect. Some of the songs can teeter on the edge of boring and monotonous, and although "Tomorrow" is very unique, it is very forgetabble. "Nobody's Fool" and "My World" are also pretty good songs, although they are also forgetabble and can linger on the verge of becoming boring, with their monotonous choruses.
All in all, despite some cons, Avril Lavigne has landed in the music industry with a great debut filled with some great songs with some great messages. And although some songs are weaker than others, "Let Go" shows Avril's talents very well... from her singing... to her songwriting... and to her musicianship. She is truly a star.
Editorial Reviews for Let Go Audio Cd Amazon.com Self-professed skate punk Avril Lavigne sings that she'd "rather be anything but ordinary" on her debut. While the fact that she had a record deal by the age of 16 separates her from the pack, too often Let Go's lyrical shortcomings drag the teenager's musically impressive recording entrée into the realm of the typical. The catchy choruses of Go are substantial, though, thanks to Lavigne's riff-driven melodies and powerful vocals, which at times adopt the unorthodox intonation quirks of fellow Canadian Alanis Morrissette. The nuanced, dynamic "Losing Grip," "My World" (which perfectly captures the ennui of suburbia), and the buoyant power-pop blast "Sk8er Boi" are the collection's highlights. But Lavigne's honest yet awkward words weigh down the likes of "Mobile," "I'm with You," and "Naked." "Nobody's Fool," which displays her Pink-like take-me-as-I-am credo, hints that someday Lavigne's lyrics will match the strength of her music. --Annie Zaleski
