Wow...she sounds Amazing!!! Country songs really suit her voice! I love how "Let Go" sounded country a bit. I Loved her passion she put in her songs!! She belongs on stage!

She performed Shania's "No one needs to know" in 2022 and sounded amazing. Was cool to see especially because of her early link performing with her after winning a radio contest.

....... I feel like once someone likes a singer/actor or whatever, they'll blindly be like omg it's the beeeeest!....even when/especially when it's just not....and not even better than a random person from your neighborhood doing karaoke. It kind of shows you who a person is if they'll fib to defend who they like. Same as an American Idol tryout when they're like "Everyone i know tells me I should be a singer " and they're like omg who lied to you!..... that's all I'm seeing here.

@@maxxh5331 The producer of the Napanee gospel project that Avril participated back in 98-2000 posted these specific infos and videos on his KZbin channel. His name is Stephen Medd.

Hermosa princesa. Se nota claramente en su trabajo la influencia del country, esos agudos y esa tonalidad especial.

[@rebeldiamond601]

So weird hearing her sing country. She still sounds amazing, though!

[@whitepouch0904]

She's really into country music. But I think her management transformed her into a rock star since the genre was popular that time.

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

I am from a town (Greater Naepanee) that is close to her hometown. My dad is from a small town near Malone NY but we moved to Greater Napanee cause my dad got a job at the heritage loyalist museum I can say for a fact that suburban/rural Ontario and Quebec, upstate New York, Illinois, Indiana, etc, that whole region is country through and through. In fact most of Canada and America are country, away from the big urban areas like Detroit, Chicago, NYC, Toronto, where life and people are still more pure and innocent, haven't been corrupted by capitalism

[@therealbrendanc9905]

you guys just shut up with the issue about that melissa thing?!!..she was like 15 when she started her career and 16 when she signed the contract for a deal about being an awesome singer and no she is just 32 !other people in 30+ still looks young! same to her ..so pls dont make any taboo issues about her..lets just pray for her about her being ill😢😍

[@nereitaammc_99]

Rip Avril

[@aizat27]

that was fantastic.. this video is proof that avril can sing so good

[@SempiternalScientist]

This explains why I like her older songs better...they're basically country mixed with a bit of heavy metal and some power ballads. Those are the songs I enjoyed in her first two albums...when she became a bubble pop princess, I was like, 'What the heck happened??' Really miss her old voice but oh well...people change.

[@mizzysparrots4874]

I've been to that Chapters! 7 months ago, the night before my 20th birthday, we stayed overnight at a hotel in Kingston, and on our way onward to Montreal, we went to breakfast at the Smitty's restaurant, and the Chapters where this was filmed was right next door! My parents took my picture in front of it. We also went to the pizza place in Napanee where she hung out in high school.

Check out her Shania Twain tribute at the ACM awards in 2022. She could easily have gone into country instead of pop.

She rides 4-wheelers for fun in her spare time. What did you expect? A full-on Bieber belieber?

So was swift, mylee, etc. I don't know why these girls get so raunchy. LADY G and Beyonce are going the other way to country !

Well, if you listen to country music lyrics, they're usually really degenerate anyways. Remember, the wh*re's name was Fancy, but we call her Reba. Must've been a schism. @@cut--

Im not trying to be offensive to you and your opinions. But from what i've read online, or in bios, or in magazines, It said that Avril was raised listening to country and gospel music. When she moved to NewYork to pursue her music career, she heard rock, and fell in love with it. And decided to pursue her music career in rock/pop rock.

[@amyaajones]

I remember my uncle telling me he was working on legal contracts for a new - the next big singer - bigger than Alanis Morisette / coming out in the next couple of months. Watch for her. He just kept saying. Wouldn’t say her name. He’s great that way. When she came out I knew immediately who he was talking about. He remained helping her legally for quite a while. His son would even go to her parents house and fix their computers for a while around that time. This was the days of Sam the Record man when you would still go to the store to get the latest CDs! All good things were always said about her. Such a sweet connection to a piece of Canadian history.
