THE REVIEW

Checking the review database, I noticed the absence of this record, which, despite not being a full-length, includes audio CD and DVD for a comprehensive and certainly interesting total playing time, as it contains songs and covers entirely recorded live during Avril's various tours. Additionally, there is the entire Buffalo concert dated 2003 ending with videos, backstage, and photos. So, I would say that this is anything but a purely commercial operation.

Let's start with the audio CD which begins with 'Fuel', a Metallica cover with excellent sound quality, slightly lightened compared to the original, and with an Avril Lavigne in dazzling form; followed by 'Basketcase' a Green Day cover, more suited to the singer's notes; followed by 'Unwanted' and 'Sk8er boy' from Avril's debut, up to the very popular 'Knocking on heaven's door' (here recorded for humanitarian purposes) ending with 'Why', an unreleased track except in particular editions.

Let's move on to the 'main plate', which is the DVD, anything but marginal on an artistic level: in fact, we have good direction, good video quality; while the audio quality, as I have already mentioned about the CD, is truly exceptional: of course, the mixing might not have been very challenging as pop scores are orderly in themselves, but still, the audio challenges studio quality (also for this reason Avril or the producers have deemed it appropriate, in various remasterings, to add several live tracks).

In the live performance, Avril delights us with her excellent range, her sweetness, the excellent low notes and the high notes with a brilliant timbre (not the country), also playing the guitar and encouraging the crowd, with which she directly interacts on several occasions (unfortunately I wasn't there and missed the opportunity for a nice duet!!). I'm not going to mention the songs because they are Avril's various hits and the same covers as the audio CD, except for 'I don't give' which I don't know. Even the 'outtakes' are interesting, despite not having any connection to the music: more like funny sketches of Avril with the band.

Going back to the introduction with the recommendation of this CD + DVD to anyone who loves this singer, as Avril live performs as much as if not more than in the studio.

Why... do you always do this to me
Why... couldn't you just see it through me
How come
You act like this, like you just don't care at all

Do you expect me to believe
I was the only one to fall

I can feel, I can feel you near me
Even though you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby
Why...

It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day...
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you

Tell me
Are you and me still together?
Tell me
D'you think we could last forever?
Tell me... why

Hey...
Listen to what we're not saying
Let's play...
A different game than what we're playing
Try...
To look at me and really see my heart

Do you expect me to believe
I'm gonna let us fall apart

I can feel, I can feel you near me
Even when you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby
Why...

It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day...
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you

Tell me
Are you and me still together
Tell me
D'you think we could last forever
Tell me... why

So go on and think about
Whatever you need to think about
Go on and dream about
Whatever you need to dream about
And come back to me when you know just how you feel, you feel...

I can feel, I can feel you near me
Even though you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby
Why...

It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day...
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me

It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you

Tell me
Are you and me still together
Tell me
Do you think we could last forever
Tell me... why
