I miss her playing Nobody's Home acoustic solo, with the band coming in towards the end.

I miss her playing guitar at all. NH, HW, MHE, DTM, WK. Then piano or guitar for together and just piano for forgotten. But after that no more guitar..I think. At least not for new songs. Just piano for WYG, innocence, IFILWTD. Btw this is just off the top of my head so correct if I'm wrong.

Yes but I kind of mean by songs where she plays guitar from the start and all the time. MHE, DTM, HW, NH...I think it only happened on UMS. Some people say she doesn't plug in her guitar when she performs most of the time so maybe that's why.

Unpopular opinion (maybe):
Strong album concept and production wise, but her weakest in themes and lyrics. With the exception of Take Me Away and How Does It Feels where I think she pushed herself to something less literal, most of the album has really bland lyrics (Together, Forgotten, Slipped Away) and revolves around the angst of "You hurt me, I hate you" or "I'm sad". I think it is a perfect album for a teenager, as it much feels like a teenagers diary, but I can't relate too much into it in my 30s.
Still one of my favorites. Don't tell me has a strong message. I love NH even if she rhymes home with home. And MHE will always be one of her strongest singles. Part of me would wish for her to recapture the music and production of UMS with the vocals and lyric composition of HAW.

Right that’s exactly my issue with this album. It’s too much of the same thing for me to really love it and want to listen on repeat, plus it’s probably lyrically her weakest album.

^^ Theme of all UMS songs worked well with me in my teens. I was all those songs in a nutshell 😂

Rhymed dead with dead on MHE. What else are y'all gonna point out next? 😂 Leave "My Happy Ending" alone! It's still one of the best songs ever!  "All this time you were pretending, so much for my happy ending" and "It's nice to know that you were there. Thanks for acting like you cared" are some of the most relatable lyrics to almost any person ever, in my opinion. It doesn't even have to be about teenage romance. It can apply to marriage, friends, family, etc. I guess I like it so much because I'm even more angsty/edgy/emo than I was as a teenager. |

I think Freak Out could have had better verses, but I'm not too critical of this album; it's one of my favourites and the era where I first saw her live.

I can still relate to the album and I'm in my 20s. It's a theme that will follow me until I die.

It does not make sense to me that I Always Get What I Want and He Wasn't are on Under My Skin and they are not on The Best Damn Thing.

It does not make sense to me that I Always Get What I Want and He Wasn't are on Under My Skin and they are not on The Best Damn Thing. Simply because UMS came out first and TBDT was not conceptualized that time. Both of the songs could fit in TBDT and LS. |
