Avril was a copycat of 1982 joan jett for Let Go and this sounds like the non ballad let go tracks which is runaways with joan jett before she went solo. UMS yes but I don't listen to LG and have not since 2010 and doubt i will ever listen to LG again except tracks on audience recording |

I agree Joan Jett was definitely first. Most people my age only know her for I Love Rock N Roll and Bad Reputation, which Avril covered. It definitely sounds a bit like Avril and the band. Especially the first song intro. So Avril wasn't the first to lead a rock band as a female or have the heavy guitars, but at the time LG came out, there wasn't anything being currently marketed that sounded like that (not that I know of anyway). We were getting a lot of pop type stuff. I think that's what made it work, that and the general quality of the songs (the ballads/slower stuff especially).

Avril was not molded after Joan Jett. No way.

I guess English is your 2nd language?
You seem to enjoy disagreeing and stirring shit up. Whatever.
I’ve heard a lot of music in my advanced age and Let Go is definitely a unique and original piece of work.
You know that.

And yet it altered the course of future pop music. Avril had more copycats then Chrissie Hynde, Blondie or Joan Jett ever did. Why is that?

Avril had so many copycats and made such an impact, that any young female artist making pop-rock music was compared to her. Have to say though that she had some really good copycats - Katy Rose, Skye Sweetnam and Lillix were all amazing artists, to just name a few. |

And noticing they have now been banned. Was wondering if it was going to happen since it seemed like they lurked and tended to be negative when they did post over the past few weeks. Glad Formerly H 57 noticed too. Oh well...Was hoping to have a difference of opinion conversation without it going down like that. Too bad. I think if they had just stated their opinions a bit differently...I really was not trying to start anything when I asked 632007a why they felt that way about LG (guessing you already knew, but just stating...). Just trying to hear their side. And now back to your regularly scheduled forums fellow Black Stars.

If anyone would like to debate other "unpopular" opinions with me I would be happy to do so in a respectful manner in the unpopular opinions thread. Thanks for assist in defending Avril in this topic. Could see how some bits sounded like Avril in LG but most sounded like 60s 70s rock, not LG. Glad to know others think the album is unique. BA members rock!
