It’s about damn time Head Above Water got the respect it deserves. Standout tracks: Head Above Water, Birdie, It Was in Me As Yara Sofia told Mimi Imfurst on the first season of Drag Race All Stars, “they need someone to go home first” – just like this list needs a last place. Despite its ranking, this is by no means a bad album. The record marked a bold step forward for Avril in terms of its mix of genres, conceptual music videos ( especially Here’s to Never Growing Up and Rock ‘N’ Roll) and the carefree attitude that defined most of its songs. The self-titled effort was also the first of her albums to include featured artists, one of which was her husband at the time, Chad Kroeger. It saw her experiment with new sounds, most notably on the electronic Hello Kitty – something which eventually became one of the most defining moments of the era thanks to its viral video.
Standout tracks: Give You What You Like, 17, Hush HushĪvril’s fifth album was packed with radio-friendly pop-rock songs, representing a departure from the more mellow sound of Goodbye Lullaby. Did fan favourite Let Go make it all the way? Maybe The Best Damn Thing reached number one just like Girlfriend did all over the world? Or perhaps Head Above Water managed to swim to the top? To celebrate the release of her seventh studio album, Love Sux, GAY TIMES ranked Avril’s discography from worst to best. Her impact can still be felt today, as artists like Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo credit the singer-songwriter as a major influence of theirs. She is the third-best-selling Canadian female artist of all time, behind only Celine Dion and Shania Twain, and is widely seen as one of defining artists of the 2000s alongside the likes of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and P!nk. Her album sales exceed 40 million worldwide, with her singles racking up 10 million more than that. Since the release of her debut album Let Go in 2002, Avril Lavigne has seen an unfathomable amount of success.
