I was mildly disappointed that Avril and Mod did not take the opportunity to perform IAM together when she was on tour in Japan. I would have much preferred performances of HER newest single as a duo with her significant other rather than hear that they performed 'Flames' for the 10,000th time.
Now, I can understand why Avril may have been reluctant to perform it with Mod in public BEFORE having the opportunity to sing it with the song's feature, Yungblud, before a live audience. I get that. But, moving forward, should Avril perform IAM at all with Mod? I say yes. Thematically it works PERFECT for them. THAT IS their couple's situation much of the time with both on their separate tours or apart from each other for the sake of their respective careers. Avril mentioned that she had that specifically in mind when she wrote the lyrics. And it would be another of HER songs they could do live together instead of one of his where she was the featured performer.
I don't want to make this intro too long so I'll leave it at that for now.
What say you?

I don’t really mind either way. It’d be weird to do it before she’s performed the song with YB imo. But I’m happy with Flames on the setlist and Avril doing IAM on her own tbh. I’d imagine she’ll sing it with YB on at least one of the dates in the U.K. next year anyway.

I thought of this too but I get why they did Flames. I don’t think they should do it until after she’s performed it with YB at least once, since it’s sort of his song too. Maybe Avril doesn’t want to sing it with Mod because technically Flames is “their” song, and maybe Mod doesn’t want to slight YB or something.

They won't sing it together because it's not their song.They shouldn't sing it together because their voices don't match like Yungblud's does with Avril.

Nope. Well who knows maybe in a couple years and she wants to perform it. Yungblud is not there and they do it organically. Yeah.. but it's not his song so why would they

Yeah.. but it's not his song so why would they Because it’s Avril’s song and she can sing it with whoever she wants to, regardless of who the original collaborator was. Would you have complained if Avril had performed it in Japan with Mod, bridge and all, simply because it wasn’t Yungblud on stage with her? Or would you simply have evaluated it on the quality of the performance? To be honest I’d just like to see Avril get in shit from her fans for once for performing the right song with the wrong person instead of the wrong song with the right person. It’d make for a change at least. But beyond that, as I outlined above, IAM works perfectly thematically for Avril & Mod to perform together. It is literally ABOUT an aspect of their relationship that is very real to them. Other than Yungblud Mod is the ONLY person who COULD get away with performing it with Avril and have it come off sounding authentic. |

I know it's her song and she could sing it with whoever she wants, regardless of who the original collaborator was. I can give a fair review of the performance and still be like "why did she perform this with Mod Sun???" At the same freaking time. Because it is a brand new song and she hasn't performed it with Yungblud yet. There has barely been any real promo for it too. It would take away from the experience for me personally. Even though it wasn't at the top of my list, I am excited for this collab and can't wait for them to perform it together. I don't want Mod in this because you know a comparison in performance would be inevitable. Among other shit from fans that I'm sick of, I really can't relate to you there tbh. Also, the performance may be more charged with Mod because of the theme but it I don't care 😬 like that's nice for them but a performance of Flames can also be just as charged. |

It's least she could do for a single, although I'm worried that this song end up like up being the new "Flames" at her concerts.

I don't think he is a vocal performer so better not.

Nah, it would be a bit weird since it's Avril and Yungblud. Even if he can pull it off it's not a collab between Mod and Avril so I voted no.
