|| 01.01.2005. Happy New Year!!! We wish you all the best in 2005. :D

As for Av, let's check what she has acomplished in past year. Well, her second album "Under My Skin" has made huge success... not such on charts like the "Let Go", but it's certenly more mature and her music got deeper... Evan left the band and Devin came as a replacement, she did many great shows like the whole Mall tour, Bonez tour, and great performance on Fashion Rock show... Some of facts from 2004:

  • multiplatinum album (over 7 million copies)
  • My Happy Ending video on 4th postiton at Rolling Stone Top 20 and 1st on Much Music top list, 10th on most watching list at AOL.
  • Under My skin among 10 essential rock records of 2004 by Ultimate Guitar, in top 5 albums at iTunes
  • And many more... Some important top list info will come later.

|| 25.12. Marry Christmas everybody! Hope you are having great holidays!

|| 18.12. Music video for He Wasn't has been shot last week, as Avril recently said (Daily Download). She obviously decided that He Wasn't will be her next single of the record.

Shame because Under My Skin did/does well on the charts, it has been sold in 7 million copies and had 3 singles by now...

|| 02.12. Avril said that she wants to get into the studio again to make some music ;), probably in January.. She said that she made lots of new material on the recent tour and that she wants to record it... The new album could be out by the end of 2005. Too soon maybe? ;A) A few hits are still awaiting from Under My Skin.

Avril gave short interview for the Billboard.com commenting Ashlee Simpson's lip-synching... |here| And, here is great personal review of Avril's concert form Hampton Coliseum, by one of DSJ staff reporter... "So you see, I entered the concert an apathetic listener and left an ardent fan. Avril’s passionate voice and rocking sound won me over, and certainly didn’t do any damage to the millions of fans who already adore her. Now I understand why they do adore her. And now I’m ready to defend Avril Lavigne to anyone who assumes that she’s just another pop princess." |link|
