I usually start the album with I Can Do Better. I just love the intro, it gets me so pumped. I love the acoustic version too.

I realize how Avril had the power to not be controlled by Luke. I think Avril knew he is a very controlling producer so she came with "The Best Damn Thing" behind the scene to show how much she involved

Wow I wasn't a fan back then but I was loving the song. I remember asking my cousin to burn it for me. I was judged back then too lmao. I think Glamorous is an iconic song too. It makes me think of Gossip Girl lol

Girlfriend came out in 2007 and I was in 5th grade, was around 10 years old I think. A dance group in my school used this song and I remember thinking that it was the coolest thing ever. Ahh, memories.

I bought a digital copy of "Avril Lavigne: The Best Damn Tour - Live In Toronto" on Amazon. I'm surprised at how High Quality the video is compared to the videos on Avril's Youtube channel. It's especially noticeable on my 1440p monitor. Some of the best damn vocals I've ever heard. She also looks hot as fuck.  |

So, that's how it was initially released. It's native resolution was only 480p, with a 4:5 aspect ratio. While everything was being recorded in HD, not everything was being released in HD. Blu ray had just become the industry standard HD disc format, winning out over the competing HD DVD format. And, not everyone had one yet. At some point, you will look back on 1080p and say, "Can you believe how crappy videos were, back in the old days?" I agree. I really think she did a good job. |

Unfortunately, I think 1080p will be the norm for a VERY long time so that "point" might not come for another decade or two. Even my Computer Science and gaming friends(even the ones that are really into either) don't really bother with anything above 1080p. A lot of people simply cannot afford the hardware or think that 1080p is good enough. A lot of shooter gamers also don't want to lose frames per second so they stick with 1080p. |

I was 19 when TBDT came out, I already was a huge Avril fan since day 1 and I must say the album had to grow on me a little since I was so used to her UMS sound but I overplayed it so much cause if the hiatus between TBDT and GL. I don't play the album very often anymore but I must say when the weather is good (read: sunshine) after a long winter or something I'd like to blast this cd in my car  |

I think at the time I saw it announced online and that’s how I knew, but I remember somehow hearing that a radio station was going to play Girlfriend for the very first time. I stayed up late at night with my radio on just to hear it. I remember the first time listening to it and feeling like Girlfriend was going to be a HUGE song.
I was in 8th grade at the time but my sister was older and could drive. So when the album TBDT came out I gave my sister the money for the album and talked her into stopping at the store to buy it for me. When she got home and gave me the CD, I sat down, put it in my CD player, and listened start to finish. On the first listen I was a little shocked at the whole album being more girly and peppy, but I also kind of expected it after hearing Girlfriend. I did love it though and ended up listening to TBDT all the time.

Is it true that there was a rumor/talk about putting out "Runaway" as a single from TBDT?

I remember hearing about that rumor, but I don't have much to say on it as the fact that it was a rumor is the extent to what I know. On that note though, did Avril do a fan poll (similar to Smile vs. Push) to determine one of the singles for The Best Damn Thing? I could've sworn there was one with I Can Do Better being an option. |
