This is the first hit for the Canadian teen pop/faux-punk rock singer. When she came on to the scene, Avril was billed as the "anti-Britney", with a sound and an image that was very different from Britney Spears and the other teen pop singers that followed (notably, Christina, Jessica and Mandy).
"Complicated" still gets a considerable amount of airplay on CHR, hot AC and even AC. I do like it, but I do prefer other songs like "I With You", "Losing Grip" and "Don't Tell Me".

I remember when me and my 3 friends first heard this song like 7 months before it blew up huge. We loved it when we first heard it and it became our group anthem. We'd play it everywhere we went and one of our friends happened to be driving by and would look at us weird.
We'd request it at every school dance and people would look at us weird like we didn't know what the eff good music was.
Then the song blew up huge, and at our final school dance everyone was rocking out to this song.
I effing hate biterz.
But to this day, this is the ONLY avril song I like.

I really like this one, but think she has even better songs. Her two albums are amongst my favorite of the past few years.

I liked this song, as well as many others by her (like Sk8er Boi, I'm With You).
Wasn't this the #1 song of the year on Dees countdown?

One of my all-time favorites. The first time I heard it I knew it was going to be huge! Avril is the only artist whose CD's I've gotten on the release date.

I liked it at first but at the time, I knew she needed more than this to get on my good side. Unfortunately, 'Sk8or Boi' didn't help her. She was DAMN lucky the rest of her debut CD was as good as it is! Because I do love Avril! This is among my least favourites tho, even tho I DO like it.

I did like this -quite a bit, in fact- when it first came out. I couldn't care less if I never heard it again for rest of my life.

Funny thing about this song..my rock station originally added Sk8r Boi instead of this because they said this was too light. A couple weeks later, they added Complicated.

I remember an alternative station in San Diego (the former KFSD) played "Complicated" and they caught me by surprise by playing it because most of the music they played sounded closer to active rock and didn't play a lot of commercially successful songs.

I like it, but it's not one of my favorite songs/singles from Avril.

I recently rediscovered this song and I love it. Not on the same level as "I'm With You" but still great.

One of Avril's best. It takes me back to third grade listening to this. Crazy good song.

I used to be obsessed with this song and her back in 2002. This was a looong time ago. But in all seriousness I still enjoy early Avril even if I do find her to be extremely immature and arrogant now.
