I still don't like his voice or vocals. He is not that great and for me his voice is too girly.
For me, this is what a man sounds like:
Anyway, back to topic, it would be awesome if there would be an Avril-only version. It's easy for her to sing this as a piece of cake.

The song is #10 on iTunes. I'm starting to think that Avril didn't want to release this internationally because the lead single is coming "soon" and she didn't want this song to steal the comeback song title.

Avril's this kinda funny attitude to get a boost from media on songs she (her team) didn't suppose she would/can get

I just wanna share my thought about Taka's voice, I'd been to their concert in Manila last year and he is definitely a good vocalist. You can feel the rock inside the arena, after the show everyone outside just like, "OMG! They are so good" "The vocals of Taka is superb" take a listen, this is more rock and also in Yokohama

There's a difference between not liking someone's voice and saying they can't sing. Some people may dislike his voice and that's a purely subjective thing, but it doesn't mean he actually can't sing. I haven't heard enough of him to really form much of an opinion, but I listened to the version of Listen without Avril and when he sang her part "I want you to know" he does this high note in a screaming rock voice that's not easy to achieve. I'd say he definitely knows how to sing.

If there's this much hype over a Japan exclusive feature from an emo rock band imagine the press when she releases her actual single. It didn't seem like she got this much attention when HTNGU came out.

Some fans even mailed publications like Rolling Stone and MTV in 2013 to write about HTNGU.

I think that the industry is awaiting Avril's next project after her illness. It seems like her story kind of gained her sympathy and I think it's making people eager to see what direction she will go in next. People love a good comeback story, like after Britney's meltdown in 2007 everyone was so eager and cheering her on when she came back in 2008 with Circus and it was a huge success for her. I think that's kind of what's happening here with Avril, that people want to see her come back and succeed after going through such a hard time. It seems like she is also bringing back a lot of nostalgia for people. I think in the last few years people forgot about her and her music wasn't anything super special and so it got lost in the shuffle of other artists, but now that she is coming back with music with real meaning again and doing what people loved her for in the first place, it's reminding people of how awesome she was back in the day and they're like "Oh yeah I remember her, I'm so excited she's releasing something new."

The album sold 215k copies in Japan in 5 days. Avril definitely got some huge promo in Japan before even starting the new era. I really hope she can do at least 70k in the first week there when the album is released.
