Even on the red carpet she looks truly joyful, not that forced look that often happens at awards shows. Maybe being drunk helps, we saw how much they were slamming down before the awards lol. But I still think she's feeling a fresh and new energy and enjoying breaking into the country scene. Why wouldn't she , I guess. Anyway even tho I'm not a fan of the new song, it's super cool to see so much from her and to see her happy. I think she looks incredible and even tho some of her antics are very immature as we've discussed it still gives me life and reminds me ...... fuck it, just do you. 💯

For me personally, judging by when she sang no one needs to know and now bulletproof, to me it's undeniable that she's happier singing country music. Yes she's always happier with someone else on stage, this is just a sense I have of feeling more vibrancy from her with this genre plus her performance of the Shania song was better than anything she's done in many years -- in my opinion of course. I think part of it is that she is more comfortable in a slightly lower register (you can even see here, she's quite pitchy in the beginning), but for whatever reason she always sings very high in her own music (particularly the fast-paced songs)... which i personally enjoy, but does not translate well in her live performances.

She sounded great! I only wish she had worn something different on top, the bell bottoms suit her, but the hoodie was too casual. Had she worn like a fitted jacket or denim jacket or a motorcycle jacket or something it would have elevated her look so much.
It did seem like she struggled with the higher harmonies on the chorus. Her solo verse sounded very solid and I LIVE for that low note she was doing after the bridge before they went into the chorus again. Her low register is underutilized IMO but she’s got a great low register. She sounds great singing country. Not a super big fan of this particular song but I hope this is her exploring and testing the waters to maybe go further.

The original song just reached top10 on US country radio today. The duet version probably had an impact on them playing it more (not sure if they are playing both tho)
#29 on US itunes #11 in Canada
The original it's doing good on radio in both of these markets (US #10 CAN #16)

The way she went from 100% to 0% energy level by the end of the performance after she realised she would have to go all Fake as Hell at the end, so she decided not to. LOL
she just sang the last chorus in his octave and kinda brought the energy down to me. Maybe it's bc she didn't practice much but i didn't see her comfortable at all (singing i mean). She looked happy tho.
It's obvious it's not her song or didn't had any input in it lol.

I've given the song a couple more listens, and I think I like it better now. It's still not really my vibe, but it is enjoyable for what it is. It's certainly very catchy, very radio-friendly in that regard. I also like how you can listen to it no matter what mood you're in. It's really just the pitch-correction that is the worst offender here. The live performance was fine imo. With so many performances being pitch-corrected before uploading, I was pleasantly surprised to find that this did NOT happen here (well, there doesn't seem to be an official upload (yet) except for a short, but that doesn't sound pitch-corrected to me either). Yay! ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) I liked that Avril went for the higher harmonies in the beginning, I hadn't expected that. She and Nate also seem to have really good chemistry; he seems to bring her out of her shell more (she generally appears a lot more energetic and relaxed when she gets to share the stage with another singer - maybe she should consider starting a band, or a musical duo?). However, I thought they both sounded quite out of breath throughout the performance. The backing track was too loud in the beginning (before Avril came on stage). And it's a bit of a shame that Avril dodged all the higher notes towards the ending. As for her outfit, I actually kinda like it. It has such cozy vibes. Nate wasn't wearing some fancy tuxedo either, so I don't really see the problem with Avril wearing something more relaxed.

Just wish she'd give it her all for us or for the country music scene or whatever reason she needs.... just give us what you got avril.

Thought she sounded great, particularly that low note as others have mentioned. Shows off her vocals so much better than a lot of her own music does.
Interested to see where this goes. Whilst this song isn’t exactly country, she’s definitely going out of her way to involve herself in that scene.

I do think it’s rather cool of her that she dropped tour rehearsals to come do this performance. A lot of artists who have worked with her seem to always speak highly of her and her willingness to work with them, I think that says a lot about her.

I agree, it's really cool of her to drop tour rehearsals for the performance. And I also think it's really nice how it seemed so important to Nate to mention that. I just love seeing them together, nothing but good, happy vibes. ![:cheerful:](//storage.proboards.com/6190366/images/qlOaODAsHXwiwlonbkEB.gif)

Another interview, nothing new in it but it's fun lol It’s so relieving to see her happy. She seemed so stressed and uncomfortable with Mod on any red carpet.

Appearing at an awards show and not only that but performing... also in a genre she seemingly wants to break into... Definitely worth missing a night of rehearsal
