"Keep Holding On" was a singe from the 'Eragon' sountrack, not from TBDT. unless if it had gotten huge and went to #1 like breakaway, people would suddenly count it as the lead single. lol but again, if KHO was huge and went #1, clive would surely change the CD to KEEP HOLDING ON, not TBDT. these 2 are in the same situation. a soundtrack in between album. breakaway got so big that clive changed the CD to breakaway from hear me. and suddenly people count breakaway as the 1st single. avril's KHO was a mild success, not even close to breakaway ... and people of course treats KHO as just a soundtrack Of course KHO would have been bigger if it had a video and was given a push and given time too. It started rising more once GF was announced at then one GF was getting ready to go for adds it killed KHO. lol

I also think people don't consider KHO the first single because its the last track on the album and is a "Bonus Track". I think. lol I am pretty sure its listed as a Bonus Track. I may be wrong, but still, its the final single and Girlfriend was promoted as the lead single for TBDT too. Breakaway was not only the title of the album, but the opening track. So that also kind of plays as to why its considered the lead single.

For those of you who weren't around a couple years ago, people here didn't always consider "Breakaway" the first single. In fact, there was a HUGE debate that literally went on for months about whether the first single off the CD was "Breakaway" or "Since U Been Gone" with the members here split almost 50/50 on it, lol. Now everyone considers it the lead single, and definitely part of the reason is that the CD shares the same name with it.
For my part, I'd also consider "Keep Holding On" as the first single off of TBDT, but that's more subjective.

I had no idea that Breakaway (the album) was originally titled Hear Me. Keep Holding On would definately NOT work as the title of Avril's album though, lol.
LOL at the big debate between Breakaway and SUBG as the lead single. I'd like to read some heated arguements over that lol.

Heh, I think there were at least a couple threads devoted exclusively to that topic. And other random threads got off-topic with people arguing about that. One of the most pointless debates we've had here, for sure. I'll see if I can dig up any of them.

I'm sorry I thought this was a place to discuss new and upcoming singles? I noticed no thread for this and thought some people would like to know that the next single was already confirmed. I wasn't questions YOU making the thread...Avril announced her third single..I see why the thread was made... I said why are THEY even thinking about the third single when WYG is doing so well on the charts and it could be months before they even need a new single.

This was a bad choice for the 3rd single, she should have went with Runaway.

Typical RCA formula... More than likely Runaway will be the 4th. GL Avril! This one isn't Girlfriend burnout is it lol? As for the KHO and Breakaway discussion. RCA officially made 'Breakaway' the lead single and the first track off Breakaway - labelled under them, therefore it was the lead single. KHO is a bonus soundtrack and not the first track on TBDT album, RCA featured 'Girlfriend' as the first lead single and didn't with 'Since U Been Gone', they featured it as the follow up to 'Breakaway'. End of discussion - simple as that really.. Missclarkson is right though, had KHO gone top 5 you know RCA woulda released TBDT with KHO has track 1 and call it the lead single

I listened to this song a couple times last night, and I think i like it. It reminded me of how good Avril's voice is, during the last half of the song.

Why are they making decisions on 3rd single already? WYG has barely even started! ??? I guess they are expecting this era to go like all the others. Kinda boring era if you ask me.

Ohhh ohhh. You're so good to me baby, baby.
I want to lock in my closet, when no one's around. I want to put your hand in my pocket, because you're allowed. I want to drive you into the corner, and kiss you without a sound. I want to stay this way forever, I'll say it loud.
Now you're in, you can't get out!
You make me so hot. Make me wanna drop. You're so ridiculous. I can barely stop. I can hardly breathe. You make me wanna scream. You're so fabolous. You're so good to me baby, baby. You're so good to me baby, baby.
I can make you feel all better, just take it in. And I can show you all the places, you've never been. And I can make you say everything, that you never said. And I'll let you do anything, again and again.
Now you're in, you can't get out!
You make me so hot. Make me wanna drop. You're so ridiculous. I can barely stop. I can hardly breathe. You make me wanna scream. You're so fabolous. You're so good to me baby, baby. You're so good to me baby, baby.
Kiss me gently. Always I know. Hold me, love me. Don't ever go.
You make me so hot. Make me wanna drop. You're so ridiculous. I can barely stop. I can hardly breathe. You make me wanna scream. You're so fabolous. You're so good to me.
You make me so hot. Make me wanna drop. You're so ridiculous. I can barely stop. I can hardly breathe. You make me wanna scream. You're so fabolous. You're so good to me baby, baby. You're so good to me baby, baby.
You're so good.

'Hot' was one of the best reviewed songs from the album. I think it will do good.
Most people thought GF was a total flop when it leaked but the song worked.

This the confirmed third single off of Avril's, The Best Damn Thing. Avril recently announced this in an interview which was featured on OHNOTHEYDIDNT today. I was hoping for "I Can Do Better" but this will do well. ICDB is really similar to Girlfriend anyway. I am kind of surprised they've announced this so soon, though. When You're Gone has barely scratched radio yet.

Avril's ballads this era have really sucked, especially in the way she's sung them... She better stick with uptempos after "When You're Gone." I don't like that song, or "Keep Holding On"...but I am still glad that "When You're Gone" is taking off. I want it to be a big hit, so that she can have more uptempos.
