She's wearing the flame sweatshirt again. I wonder if that will be a theme for her tour style.

"It's so real to me and now it's real to somebody else"...That's an interesting way to look at it. I wonder how many writers think about it like that while working on their projects.

That was great! Very enjoyable and relaxed interview. We learned a little more about IFILWTD and DB (same guy...but she really doesn't want to say who) and got to hear her talk about the album and her upcoming tour (maybe a lot of older songs with maybe half or less new songs). Bigger Wow is still just Bigger Wow...hoping she doesn't break something before the tour with all the fun she's been having lately.

I've seen Zach's interviews before and I always enjoy how in-depth they are and you can tell he researches the artists he interviews and genuinely enjoys their music. I love that neither he or his cohost let Avril off the hook anytime she tried to get out of answering questions (which she seemed to do kind of a lot here).
I like that we gained some more insight into her writing process for this album, I think we can finally confirm now that she really did help write IWIM and for whatever reason Lauren did the demo. But she made it sound as though they wrote it together. And she basically confirmed it will be the next single.
Some interesting info about the tour as well and more tidbits about Devil and DB guy. Funny questions finally asking what the hell Bigger Wow is supposed to mean and even she didn't know lol
I wish they had talked a little more about some of the other tracks on the album besides the singles. Would have loved to hear more about Birdie, the jazz/soul influenced songs on this album like TMIO, Crush, and LMI, Souvenir, Goddess (only mentioned briefly). Would have liked to hear more about Warrior as well, even though she touched on it. Overall definitely one of her better interviews this era though and we got to hear some stuff we didn't already know before.

Nice interview. Worth waiting for. However, I wish some questions were more in depth. Not the Devil / DB because we already know.
I liked that he asked her about pop punk. Because I feel like she is a huge part of it but doesn't get the credit she deserves. But she didn't look interested in conversing about it. It felt awkward.
It's nice to know that she at least knows that the next batch of songs are going to be upbeat or energetic (forgot her words). Honestly, I need that from her with a few ballads sprinkled in. I hope she doesn't take as long and that she eventually tells us what sound she is going for.
Overall, good interview, Zach knows what he's doing and got her to not be as closed off as she usually gets. Hopefully, they keep the relationship going and there are future interviews.

We got some cool info: It Was In Me next single, 20 songs on Tour and she’s writing for AL7.
But at the same time I hate that the guy was more interested in talking about the Let Go era. She discussed more that than the HAW tracks, we only got a little more info about HAW, Warrior, Devil, Dumb Blonde, Goddess and Bigger Wow. What about Birdie, TMIO, Souvenir, Crush and Love Me Insane?
He could have asked why she picked those singles, what’s her plan for IWIM, I don’t know more about the HAW era. It was like 60% Let Go, 10% other eras and 30% HAW

What a cool interview, I've only seen the first half of it so far. But from what I've seen so far has been great. It has covered almost everything I was hoping for. Ever since they first mentioned a possible future interview during the first Zack Sang interview at the Grammys. As others have said, it has been worth the wait A couple of the highlights that I particularly enjoyed in the first half of this interview were, how it has changed her writing process. And that on this new album 'Head above water’, that it was like a whole new experience for her. Compared to her first album, etc. And that from in her bed all these song concepts came to her. And how taking this break was cool for her because she wasn't trying to write a record, but then all this inspiration came to her, and that now she's been on this writing kick ever since. I also liked that she explained that this album was special to her, and that you could tell by how much heart she put into it; and by her vocal performance and lyrics, etc. And that she really appreciates song writing more than ever before. And how her songwriting has helped her figure things out and move on from the bad stuff, etc. And that going through this process and these struggles has helped her heal. And that this album was very empowering to her and that she hoped it would be empowering for others too. And that she will be able to look back at this album be like I went through that I got through that because of her music, etc. As emerald pointed out, it was really nice how Zach got her to open up more than usual. I also think it helped a lot that Zach has been a fan boy of hers since the beginning of her career. I can't wait to see the second half

Some kind of random topics that didn’t necessarily need to be brought up, like what she thought about the state of pop punk music. It was so awkward to watch her try to answer because she clearly didn’t really know what to say. I think it was an ok question to ask because of how she kind of started that whole movement and to know her thoughts on it now, but she couldn’t really give a good answer so it just made it awkward to watch.

She is already writing new songs, and she has some concept for next album, that is great, About 20 songs on tour, that is great, that means a lot of new songs, and a lot of old songs, she also mentioned HTNGU, I guess this song will be on tour too, I think its good that she will sing at least one song from each album. My funniest part, also I feel little sorry for her when she talked about IFILWTD. Avril: "It was just like a 8 month thing, but it was just not good" Zach:"When do you write this record? Like is it is it recently, Is it after HAW out ? Is it while you are writing songs for that one, that album ? Avril: "uuummmmm no I had that devil I would written that during that time it was all going on, eehm and then there is some other songs on this album too like DB" " ........ Zach: "Back to DB. mm I mean the title, the record where does it..." Avril: "Should we go dark with this, do you really wanna know?" Zach and other guy: " Yes " Avril: "Same guy" All: Zach: "Really?" Avril: Called me ******* dumb blonde !" I can't mention them all, but there are a lot of funny situations in the interview

Thought that was a fab interview. The guy in the black hoody was asking some great questions lol. Occasionally she just does an interview where she comes over so well it reminds me why I still follow her 17 years later
