First single from Avril's fourth album.
From Avril's Facebook:
Hey Everyone!
How's it going?? So... I just wanted to fill you guys in...I'm done with my 4th record!!! Well, actually I have been done for a year... and now my record company have finally decided to release it. OMG..How nice! Thanks guys.
I have been dying to get back out on the road and do what I love the most... PLAY MUSIC. I know you guys have been waiting for a long time.....and so have I, but not by choice. I have been sitting with this record for a year now. It's really special to me. I have produced a couple tracks alone for the first time, written solo, with friends, I have pushed myself and I feel proud.
In saying all that, this has been a really difficult record for me to create and to release. Not only is this the most meaningful and special record I have written, it is sincere, honest and close to my heart. But for the first time I experienced a bunch of bureaucratic BS. People do their best work when they are doing what they want, love and is natural for them, not when you are forcing them to be something that they are not.
From the beginning of my career my message has always been to be yourself and stand up for what you believe in. Follow your heart.
My first single off this record is called: "What The Hell". This song is the least personal song to me off this album. It's a fun and funny anthem. It has a broad message about personal freedom. It is the most pop track on the record.
I am shooting the video in 2 weeks and it will be out in January. I have been extremely busy designing Abbey Dawn and taking the line internationally for the first time, establishing "The Avril Lavigne Foundation" and focusing on my personal happiness and health. Balance!
Love you guys!
xo Avril

It's a fun and funny anthem. It has a broad message about personal freedom. Sounds like it will be in the vein of We R Who We R/ Raise Your Glass/ Firework/ Born This Way. |

Talking smack about your record label is always a good way to start an era. Bionic 2.0?

I love how she says the album is so personal and it seems a bit angry/dark and she's pushed and been so defiant...yet her first single is a pop song in the vein of every other big pop song right now.

^Doesn't that lead you to believe she didn't want it as the first single and she says it's the "least personal"

I feel as if she hinted that it's not what she wants to release, she made it a point to make it known that it's not "her" and the rest of her album is not like that. It might be the most radio/chart friendly song on her album and she's gotta get her name out there again to get the album sales. Can't wait for this :) |

Will this ever get released? lol. I'm not interested in her anymore cause she's taken way too long. And yes, she sounds very very bitter, and by the sounds of things the album for the most part wont be too poppy like TBDT was. What a fucking relief. lol. I really hope she didn't sell out and go electropop She already sold out last era so far as her original fanbase were concerned. lol. Expect a Dr. Luke Cali/Tik jam. |

Well obviously it will get released :) As far as Dr. Luke, from his twitter: People keep asking so here it is: I did not work on Avril's new record.. I did hear her stuff and there're really great songs though...  |

Talking smack about your record label is always a good way to start an era. Bionic 2.0? Probably not, her label is trying to avoid that and that's why they "made" her do this single. Because if her first single flops like Xtina then it's all over and they sure as hell spent alot of money on this effort already to take a chance. But I agree talking junk about your label is not a smart move. |

Does anyone think the single will be out in December?
Avril says: "I am shooting the video in 2 weeks and it will be out in January." She could be referring to the video, and the video always comes out after the song.
Also, I don't know how credible this article is but it says:

I brought this up in the Kesha thread and peopled freaked out on me lol. Female pop singers need to start not making the same song over and over and over and over again. I'm also surprised how candid she was about her label. I wonder what the hold up was? |

I wouldn't consider Born This Way in the same vein as those songs-- we've never heard it. An acoustic clip of it doesn't tell us the production, the rest of the lyrics or anything.

I don't think anyone really knows but I think her label was not too pleased with what she came up with which led to this single. Avril wants to do her music, they want to make money. And with flops by major artists like Cristina and Miley I can't blame them for the hold up assuming this single is a success.
