I agree Theo! Avril's too Hot for the winter, it's a turnoff - that's why its stalling.
Hey, makes about as much sense as this songs run!

Like some songs arent peoples songs and her vocals annoy me and for some reason the lyrics really dont fit Avril. Yes people change, no problem with that, Im just stating that in my mind its odd and almost annoying hearing her sing this song.

It very well could if its not the right choice.. she needs to release the best track left. Something that gives you that feeling when you listen to it.

The quality of the track doesn't determine whether the song will be a radio hit. I know that, obviously. Great tracks have been ignored b4. And no "Hot" does not fit in to that category. lol And if youre going to tell someone theyre wrong you need to tell them whats correct or some will wait on other radio reaction. I know radio doesn't hand pick all their tracks but go by whats popular but when a new song comes out it has to leave an impression and it also HAS to be catchy and radio friendly for 2007 for them to start playing it. Why does she even bother doing things like that? She sounds like an idiot to me to be quite honest lol. Um to Japanese people she doesnt. Wow. I'm kinda shocked by your statement as to why shes doing it. Isn't it obvious?

Whether she sounds like an idiot or not lol, it's a smart move because her album sold 1 million copies just in Japan.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4usddEBJqEMandarin version. I couldn't even understand what she's singing, so I gave it a few listens. They direct translated it to Mandarin and it doesn't make sense at all LOL.

Wow those versions sound loud and annoying but how's that different from the original? (serious question) I'll give her props for knowing all those languages and attempting to sing it though ;) You know people from other languages can bash her foreign language versions all they want, it's still gonna translate too more sales for her. ;)
