Time to rethink about the setlist and the concert. No more: Bad Reputation Video (2008, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2022) Song 2 (Avril on drums) (2004, 2005, 2014) Airplanes intro (2011, 2012, 2019, 2022)
Up-Down thing (2005, 2008, 2011, 2014) The Airplanes intro was only for the BSTour, it was a slightly different variation from the one we are used to. The MHE intro is a reinterpretation of Innocence.

Fun fact: the game actually started on the Bonez Tour, but it was her more doing "up, down, up, down, up, down" a lot faster and only for a little, and then it evolved to what we saw on TBDTour. I think she could pull it off but make it a lot shorter than usual, maybe 30 seconds and get the song going. And the outro is the best part of this live performance. GL tour was when it was super long too but also found that really fun. Idk about AL tour or if she even performs he wasn’t. HAW she did up down again and it was fairly shorter too like only 20-30 seconds (and LS she didn’t perform it obv) so I hope she nbeings it back and do that hand up and down again it’s so fun and interactive I also love when she sit the guitar and tries to get the crones ton go quiet and then just rocks out it’s so awesome and fun Yeah, she played HW on all tours since 2004, up to the HAW tour. She hasn't played it since then. The nice bit about the HAW tour was that we could actually hear her playing the guitar by herself, with no band member backing her up. It would be just her playing during the whole intro.

I’d love HW on her setlist but she’d need to drop that hands up hands down thing lol that was incredibly annoying (potentially an unpopular opinion) Agree, it was fun for TBDTour when it was a new concept but there’s no need to keep bringing it back. It’s a fun way for her to play with the audience but it eats up so much time that she could easily play another song in the amount of time she spends on this. Fun fact: the game actually started on the Bonez Tour, but it was her more doing "up, down, up, down, up, down" a lot faster and only for a little, and then it evolved to what we saw on TBDTour.

To be honest I would be so happy if she did 3 new songs, it's fine for me. Just not to witness the same identical show we've seen already this year. And it makes sense having new music out, cause she will sing in front of people who are not necessarily her fans, and after singing her banger hits, she can introduce "her new single from her new album coming out (or already out)". She needs to do some promo otherwise it's a wasted opportunity! She'll probably add "Don't Tell Me" and "HW" on the setlist... I'd actually be happy if she did that. HW is such an underrated banger, and was always one of her most energetic performances onstage.

I don't think it necessarily means she scrapped the album. She's constantly writing, whether she's between eras or about to start a new one. So maybe music is done, she just isn't sure if she'll release it before or after the festivals tour. I think it's interesting she said "new music, then tour", so I'm guessing it will for sure be out before June.

I would like more songs in the vein of Eyes Wide Shut. It was a well written, well produced track with some lyrical and emotional depth beyond her usual, and her voice was produced without the annoying chipmunk effect. It was an alternative song that managed to sound modern and not like something out of 2004. Completely agree with this. It was my most played song of the year for a reason. The production is on point, and the lyrics are deeper than probably anything on the LS album, with the exception of Avalanche maybe.

I want a proper follow-up to Love Sux I'm not done with that era yet Me neither, glad someone feels the same! Me too. And I'd say most of the people I've talked to have loved the album and era. By far her most acclaimed album since TBDT. I hope she sticks to the sound of the album, keep the heavy guitars, live drums, and make a 180 degree turn on the lyrics and subject matter. Yes, she can talk about relationships, but I'd love to hear more than "you suck, go to hell motherfucker", and get a more reflective and introspective side to her. I want lyrics that are cleverer and that keep you thinking, and take you on a journey. I also want her to add more ballads and mid tempos this time around. As good as LS is, it does get a bit tiring once you get to a third or fourth fast-paced song in a row. That's where I think the diversity should be. Other than that, she was born to be an alternative artist and LS proved that once again. It's where she shines best and her place to be. I hope these festivals are a sign she's keeping her alternative, more pop/punk rock sound and she'll now try to win some followers from there.

With all these upcoming tour dates next year, she'll 100% have new music out by then. Maybe not the album, but two or three singles I'd say is more than likely. It would be great if the album came out before these dates, but unless the lead single is coming Jan or Feb, I don't see it happening.

When they catalogued the Love Sux clear vinyl as a deluxe edition, only to then change it and pretend it was the standard edition all along.

Avril and Simple Plan together again? They’re among my top 5 favorite bands, so I’m in. Plus, it’s a great excuse to go back to the UK lol!

I understand what you're saying. However, I still believe she could be more considerate with her wording given that she had a legal problem with Avril related to this same issue. That's all I'm saying. I'm not saying she should be like "I wrote this with Queen Avril and I bow to her", just maybe say "songs I co-wrote with Avril". She probably didn't mean to be shady in the end, but she should be more careful when referring to her and the music they created together.
True, let's keep it directly related to AL8. The original comment should've been posted on the Random Discussion thread lol.

Hopefully they have both moved on and she’s got no hard feelings towards her (even though she does credit herself as a cowriter on her other videos except this one, weird), but ok. Let’s choose to believe she didn’t throw shade at her. Just compare these to Lauren’s videos. She seems much more respectful towards Avril even though Avril probably wrote two or three lines on the entirety of LG. Just remember how Avril herself took pride in being a heavy writer on UMS, so I would be more careful if I was Chantal with what she says. She’s literally making it seem as if she wrote these songs FOR Avril, not with her.
I agree this is an old beef and both should have made peace with it, but given how she acts and expresses herself, I feel she hasn't quite done that tbh.
