Chapter 109: Overnight Success

"Chill out, don't shout okay?—— relax and let the past be a thing of the past - if you can go with the flow - you'll find - I like you - when we drive away-"

Seemingly simple melodies and guitar rhythms, but they can't help but grab your ears, and as the first single to promote the album, this "Complicated" quickly won the number one music chart in Ireland, Australia, Austria, France, and New Zealand.

And on the North American billboard, it is also rapidly elevating its position.

As previously said, Avril's rapid rise coincides with the inner needs of Generation Y's teenage rebellion, and Sid used this demand market to successfully create the "Youth Singing and Dancing Film Project" represented by "Youth Musical", laying a solid foundation for the rise of Fire Lion Pictures.

Although TeenPop, represented by Britney Spears, has been winning a lot of profits and markets for Fire Lion Records.

But Sid and Max Martin have always been well aware that sooner or later the TeenPop trend will pass, and that fresher, sharper, and more personalized music needs will surely appear.

That's why Fire Lion Records will invest heavily in hip-hop singers led by 50Cent, and at the same time, whether it is the transformation of Britney Spears or the transformation of Fire Lion Records, it has never stopped secretly.

If in the first half of the year, the "hurried" release of two albums for Sid was a quick digestion of the TeenPop music craze, then the layout of 50Cent and Avril represents the future direction of Fire Lion Records.

Although "Complicated" was the first promotional song for Avril's debut album, and "Losing Grip" with a bit of heavy metal was the album's title song, it was "Sk8er Boi" that really made her popular.

"He's a boy - she's a girl - let me make it clear?——"

"He plays punk - she dances ballet - what else can I say?——"

"He wanted her—and she was ashamed to say it—never made it clear that she wanted him, too—"

Compared to the sophistication and professionalism of the first two title songs, "Sk8er Boi" is more like a rebellious hip-hop song, and rock is just one element of the operation.

And unbridled catharsis and hearty rock 'n' roll, there is nothing more than this to impress restless and restless teenagers!

Frost, just one word!

Allmusic, a well-known music website, commented that when she made an album like "Let Go", 17-year-old Avril really couldn't think about being "extraordinary", although sooner or later she would have to be more mature.

But luckily, she's still young and has a lot of talent. She unreservedly shares all of her 17-year-old life on this album, showing her youth with some naïve lyrics, showing her confusion about the world.

And Stylus Music's video review website also says that maybe Avril is not the most brilliant singer-songwriter, and she doesn't have a staggering voice, and even her childish attitude sometimes seems ridiculous. Despite this, she is undoubtedly one of the most refreshing and exciting female singers today.

In contrast to the rave reviews from the media, Avril Lavigne has risen rapidly among the public, and the originally unknown small town girl has her own fan club in the blink of an eye.

"I think everyone knows who our guest is today! A little rock princess from Canada, she is only 17 years old, but she already has her own debut album, and her singles have won the championship in five countries, and our guest today is Avril Lavigne——!!

As "Let Go" became a hit this year, Avril immediately became a hot superstar in the entire entertainment industry, and invitations to major talk shows continued one after another, even the "Ellen Show" and "Jimmy Canmore's Late Night Show" within Fire Lion almost almost "fought" in order to compete for Avril's priority on the show.

In the end, it was the late-night show "Jimmy Chicken Feather Show" that preemptively got Avril on the show, and with Jimmy Canmore's introduction, Avril Lavigne, who was wearing a T-shirt and tie, walked out of the backstage actively.

"Avril-Avril-" "I love you-" "Oh yes-"

Although the Jimmy Chicken Feather Show, which is a late-night show, has always been dominated by adults, today it is rarely occupied by teenagers, and most of the audience is young men and women.

Seeing the idol in their hearts appear, they immediately raised the sign in their hands excitedly and shouted one by one.

"Wow, hello, Avril. Jimmy Canmore shook hands with the petite blonde girl with a smile.

"Hello, Alan. Avril Lavigne, who had just become famous, still had a shy smile, and the cheers of the audience continued, so much so that Jimmy Canmore, who provoked her, couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"I said you've had enough—" Jimmy Canmore's words drew laughter from the audience, and she looked at Avril, "Welcome to the Ellen Show." ”

"Thank you. Avril said with a smile.

Looking at Avril on TV, Sid with a faint smile, now Avril has finally taken the first step, although the current popularity seems to be abrupt, but behind it is not the efforts of Avril and Max Martin and other staff in front of and behind the scenes, it is natural to get today's results.

On TV, Jimmy Canmore plays some games with Avril and asks her to talk about some interesting stories from her childhood and when she made her debut album in the form of interviews.

For example, when she was a child in school, she was ridiculed by the boys in her class for not knowing how to catch fish, and in order to slap her face, she called a group of girls to go to the river and catch 78 fish in one go.

"Haha, what did you do with the fish then?" Jimmy Canmore burst into tears.

"Well, nothing. Avril shrugged disapprovingly, "We threw all those fish on the school playground, and when the boys went to gym class the next day, the smell and the effect were just stunned—"

"Ahh

Compared with those idol singers with perfect images and sweet singing voices, Avril is rebellious and full of personality, obviously with a cute and sweet face, but she is dressed like a tomboy, which is completely refreshing.

Whether she is chatting or talking, she is completely worthy of the experienced Jimmy Canmore. Although she is still a little young in front of the camera, Avril has quickly adapted to the transformation from ordinary person to celebrity.

"The rest may make you embarrassed, but I still have to read some media reviews of your album, I don't know if you've seen it. Jimmy Canmore pulled out a note and read it.
