I'd much rather she released and new album, I'm not the biggest fan of greatest hits compilations. But of course, some new songs would be mandatory if she and/or Epic don't plan to release a new album in some time. It would be great if some unreleased songs were officially released, especially those from GL or AL that were discarded to include "hitmaker" songs.

I don't like Greatest Hits albums. And to be honest I would consider it as a joke if they really release one with songs like Rock n Roll, Let Me Go etc. Most of her single material isn't Greatest Hits worthy in my opinion.

Avril has ten songs that have reached the top 40 technically making them all hits. She also has others such as Smile, Nobody's Home and Losing Grip which have been certified Gold. Throw in two new songs and Bad Reputation (since we all know she would ) and you have sixteen songs right there. I think it'd make for a good tracklist, at least for the U.S.

I just doubt it'd sell well, sure it'd be cool but I think it's too early for a GH album, at least in her case. She's always been an album artist which is why it probably wouldn't work Like a few others have said, she needs to release a new album first before a GH, since AL kind flopped it'd be extremely awkward to release a GH album after.

At this point, I'd rather she just release a new album. A Greatest Hits album wouldn't be a good idea in my opinion and I doubt it would sell much. Unless she releases a few new songs that are included on it. However at this point, I find it a better idea if album #6 is released first and then, if she wants, she can release a Greatest Hits album with a couple of new songs or unheard B-sides.

Maybe a while after this 2017 album, hell yeah! I would love a greatest hits record. She has so many hits & as usually with greatest hits records there's a new song or two! Plus she expressed interest in doing a Christmas album. This all could very well be possible!! Haha, I know I'm getting way ahead of myself here but think of the possibilities.

I don't know if she has enough hits. She alot of hits among her fans definitely. But her only real hits are Complicated, Skater Boi, I'm With You and Girlfriend are the only ones I can think of at the top of my head so doubt she'll ever out a greatest hits album.

Maybe if this 2017 album does well it would be good to release a christmas and/or greatest hits album while she makes the next studio album to keep her name out there and so the next album isn't too rushed. BUT that's us getting way ahead of ourselves

Unless she's signed to a record label, I doubt it's going to happen. Greatest Hits are usually made by and for the record label to profit off of. Without a record label, there's not really a point to them.

GH always have new songs if the artist is still around to promote them so that fans will buy them even though they already have most of the songs. She could make it more of a singles collection than a greatest hits because she has plenty of singles even if they haven't all been big hits. 1. Complicated 2. Sk8er Boi 3. I'm With You 4. Losing Grip 5. Don't Tell Me 6. My Happy Ending 7. Nobody's Home 8.He Wasn't 9. Girlfriend 10. When You're Gone 11. Hot 12. The Best Damn Thing 13. What The Hell 14. Smile 15. Wish You Were Here 16. Here's To Never Growing Up 17. Rock N Roll 18. Let Me Go 19. Fly 20. New track 21. New track And then they could add KHO in the American version for example since it was released there and Alice in the Japanese version since it was more successful there. Even just taking her biggest singles from each album she could have a fairly substantial GH. BUT I don't know how well it would sell amongst the general public right now since she's not well known any more. That seems right All her single in order and then 2 new songs

All of the songs in order would just be an expensive Spotify playlist. This could only be mildly interesting if she maybe did what Alanis did with the Jagged Little Pill anniversary- rerecorded all of the songs in an acoustic format- if she made a Greatest Hits: Reworked. Maybe kinda like the Roxy theatre show arrangements.

I think the perfect time for this if it were to happen would be sometime after the 6th album.

I think it would depend on how good AL6 does. If it's a big success I could see a greatest hits album with 1 or 2 new songs on it as well
