What did she say? I don't know why there's no sound on my phone Omg... I just can't believe it or allow myself to completely believe it tho there aren't label issues now I think so should I be excited? YES but... scary but "I'm releasing a new album in 2023..." ?!?!?! Like GIRL..... I would be so f*cking proud because it would be an album in 2022 and 2023..?! WTH?! I really hope it is a different vibe than Love Sux, I'm in for everything but I'm really down for some jazzy pop-rock or some country rock (whatever genre that it) songs she mentiones before. But considering she's in the studio with Feldy I don't know and we might get a sort of sister album from Love Sux..

I agree regarding her lyrical quality we probably can’t expect much to improve at this point unless she works with some different writers (though her self writtens on Love Sux are actually I think some of the strongest lyrics on the whole album), but I think we all want to at least see some different topics than breakups. I feel like that’s her “go to” topic because it’s easy and relatable but we don’t really need 2 albums in a row of it, especially not when she’s now happy and in love. I know she made TBDT while married, so it’s still possible for her to write breakup songs, but I’m hoping she moves in another direction.

Yeah some other topics would be a warm welcome! It doesn't have to be super cheesy but I liked she tried some new topic with MIR for example. She's kinda into astrology so that was nice to have a different topic. Teenage Nightmare the same. The boy bashing was fun again but if she does it again it would be a bit boring.

80% of artists write about breakup songs, take Dua Lipa for example, her latest record Is huge success and most of the songs are break up songs.
She can write about love or write about a breakup, only if it's not in a childish way.

I like to think that in some kind of Adele fansite they're also hoping she could write about anything else than break up songs 🤣 But yeah, Avril could sing about other topics. It could be about challenges she faced in life, about how lost one can get with all the traveling and touring, how even though everyone sees her but doesn't really know her, or even a song about our last day on earth afrer a cataclysm... there's plenty of topics.
But I also fear we're stuck at heartache forever.

I would like some more songs like Keep Holding On, Avalanche and Nobody’s Home, all very good songs with non relationship lyrics ci and well written. They don’t need to be ballad-y/slower, could even be more mid tempo like Who Knows or Mobile for example

I think, like a lot of artists, she uses writing to process her emotions and breakups cause lots of strong emotions that need working through. She can, and has, written songs on other topics though and being that she hadn't broken up with anyone for a while it would be great if she wrote about other things. A few break up songs would be fine imo, especially if she looks at them from a new angle, but the majority exploring a wider selection of topics would be great.

You guys keep saying that and I agree but all I can think of is then we'll get the other side: Corny in love Avril. Songs like Goddess, LMI, WYWH, Smile. I prefer the break up songs tbh. Just stop being so aggressive. I wouldn't mind some more instrospective songs (crush, avalanche) with less generic lyrics.

I never particularly liked Nobody's Home as a song but I like how for once she sang about someone other than herself or a boyfriend. I suspect the problem is that she may have a lot of stories like that to share which are affecting her and she'd like to process them through songs but feels like they aren't hers to tell and worries that those people would recognise that the song is talking about them and get upset. It's safer to talk about yourself. And even then she is really quite secretive and private.

Just stop being so aggressive. I wouldn't mind some more instrospective songs (crush, avalanche) with less generic lyrics. Yeah or songs like WYG with super cheesy simple lyrics, YASNY too. I actually really like Goddess since it's so Avril to sing something really lame like: 'He goes bananas' lol I do like break-up songs but they doesn't have to be all like 'You're stupid, I hate you, You're narcissistic, You're lame. Even if it wasn't her own written song I really loved the lyrics from Lucky Ones. It's written from such a different angle and it connects more than a simple: 'I hate you, you did me wrong' lyric. Lights Out is a song you can connect with since it can be about a lover, friendship, God or whatever you feel like. And an upbeat fun song with a nice topic would be cool too! I would love her to sing a bit about all her travelling/touring life for example. I'm curious tho what we will get for AL8! Seems so weird to already write and mention AL8!

She can write about love or write about a breakup, only if it's not in a childish way. I agree, the problem is that she cannot talk about it in a more mature way, so we're damned to hear childish break up songs. Let Go and UMS had more writers, more concepts ... and even if some lyrics are clearly not hers, at least they were more serious and she was also taken more seriously. Some songs like "Take me Away" and "Together" can be considered break up songs right? How amazing they are if you compare them to "You make me siiickk bleahhh don't invite me to your pity party bleahhh" She should just accept the idea of having help by a serious writer, because she clearly has good ideas, but doesn't have the skills (we often comment in this form how some of her interviews are a pain to watch), maybe it's also because she didn't finish school and when she was attending she didn't study much, but it's not a problem, she should just accept a serious writer's help, it's their job and some writers hardly find a job while they are incredibly talented.

Didn't she learn French? I doubt she just pick up a word for apple and called it a day. Still she had to remember a lot in her native language and certainly awakened her ability about that. While 'Falling Fast' and 'I Fell In Love With The Devil' exist, jumping into conclusion for her songwriting skills is a bit rush. Although I have no idea how much did MOD SUN help with the lyrics for 'Love Sux' (they are incredibly rhyming, just so not Avril?), it significantly improves even there still is shadow of teenager or juvenile, like "You're an a**hole living in a castle", "Tired of being cautious cutting all my loses, you make me nauseous". Instead, just nothing really pushes the pursuing of greater extent.

I think she has had some help for AL8 too. Mod and that guy from All Time Low, and there was another one, right?

Andrew Goldstein I’m actually not sure if Mod is involved this time or not since I don’t think he’s appeared in any of her studio pics. I’d find it hard to believe he’s not involved but at the same time he is working on his own album right now so maybe he wanted to focus on that. Don’t forget we have Tommee Profitt too. And Yungblud.

We definitely need a mid-tempo anthem like MHE in this album, just not let it live as an album track that won't ever get attention from the GP and only fans will know of. They should make it a lead single or 2nd single. It would be such a good move.
