Luis Limo Dávila well no, as much as she deserves it, she wont get it. Just like Kesha was snubbed with « Praying » they will hand the award to some talentless rapper like Drake or someone
Of course she deserves it: she deserves hundred of Grammies for her whole career ! But, unfortunately, the Grammy will be given to another so-called artist we can see at this ceremony every year... This is pretty disgusting tbh !
@@107ashrafulmasum5 I think he's just too used to listening to talentless artists... She's always been able to sing extremely will. She surfaced before most of todays pop singers
@@WiresConcept stop shitting up bullshits in every reply that mentions "autotune" in it. If you are that negetive of a person then you dont deserve this song.
Somewhere on a christian radio station they are playing this song, because it poped up on Christian Airplay Billboard Charts this week, so I guess she is getting support of this song?
I keep coming back to this song. It’s such an incredible return after facing a toxic illness. The fact she gives God the Glory for all of it. It never fails to give me goosebumps
Because she's crying out to The God. Secular record labels don't have the guts to promote it like they should because, God forbid, someone might get offended or something.
Iron man Sorry but not everyone believes in god, and record labels and radio companies don’t want to alienate a bunch of potential customers/listeners by spraying out Christian hymns. It’s just how the world is. Religion is too touchy a subject to be mainstream. Countless wars have been fought over it. It surely has the power to destroy a company.
Yea something is so weird about that haha... she dont look as she did awhile ago and now all of a sudden she looks like the old avril from the face. So weird...🤔 ua-cam.com/video/zPzfDp-Ul24/v-deo.html
Those Rejects though we all wanted her to go back to those tomboy days, respect who she is now, she is a woman, and she’s gonna fuck our brains inside out with those vibes
Yes ! According to a vocal coach she knew where to release the power and to hold back, she knew the notes and keys, she knew all music genres. For me, maybe because of her ability to play instruments right ?
i don't get how some people still harass her with "bring the old avril back" when she's clearly matured, vocals even more consistent and on point, and overall just better. punk avril was truly iconic but some of y'all should not just disregard this amazing, a continuous working progress avril lavigne bc of nostalgia. love both, she's still ungodly serving us with every bit of her talent and being
Most people just found it really strange how she changed a lot from her 2nd to 3rd album, both in the looks and sound department. There's a short MTV documentary that portraits the whole change REALLY well, especially with her interviews across the years. But we got used to it, and only silly people expect her to put out music like the one she had on her debut album, hehe. She's doing fine now.
I love the old and the new Avril. Sk8er boy was my preteen anthem, but this amazing too. I love the vocal control she has now--judging by the way sounds you would think this was take 100 in a studio.
Avril is iconic, legendary. This is pure talent. No need to perform in a uber fancy stage and with super fancy outfit. No need to do shit things to be noticed. Avril never cease to give us real art. Her talent, presence, and attitude make her shine brighter. I love her since 2002, Let Go. ❤
I will conclude that Grammy 2019 is a non-prestigious trash event if this lady will not be acknowledged nor nominated. Give her a chance people. Do not screw up this time Grammy
I actually not believe in grammy trash, Kendrick lamar won politzar, Jay Z got one of the highest selling album previous year yet bruno won the best album.
I'm a 33 year old guy and I'm not afraid to admit that I love Avril Lavigne. She blew up when I was in Jr High in the early 2000's so it's nostalgic for cats my age as well as great music...All these years later still killin it.
Shes not underrated. Its just shes fighting with her disease. Im her fan ever since i was young and up to now. 15 years ago i always sing her song in karaoke. Hehehe
Isa C - she's def not underrated. she's taken time off because she's been sick but she was popular from at least 2000-2014 then had to stop music bc of her lyme disease.
She was actually at the peak of her fame (especially during the 2000's) til 2012 then she took a long break ....then new people arrived & she just got shunned but she'll get back stronger I believe in her & her music
This world is dominated by shit mumble rappers and masterpiece like this goes unnoticed, sad reality. Thank you Avril Lavigne for the beautiful music that we've been really waiting to hear.
It really shows that she was classically trained as a child and teenager. Just the longevity and quality of her live vocals vs studio. She has flawless technique and she’s been able to maintain her tone and range over a pretty amazing career so far. Congrats on making another amazing album Avril!
Now days there is no studio and live almost every singer now days travels with $100k+ in studio equipment that stuff you see off the side of the stage flashing is not guitar or amp stuff and the guy in the back on the sound board is not just working the lights and volume they are working the studio items to make them sound allmost the same as a cd live. The mishaps at things like grammys and vma's show that when the singers are sounding like them self and they say it is a mic mishap or somthing in those line. Real singers that sound the same are like cheap trick,Alice Cooper and others from a time when that stuff was not out there you will find sound same on a LP and a stage are the same even now. Dont get me wrong I love Avril but saying she is like an artist from the past on and off stage with out all the equipment is not correct.
@@x2xtreme360 yeah in younger years she had that natural 3-dimensional tone where she could just speak into the mic and sound great. Her voice isn't exactly 3-dimensional anymore but her technique has certainly improved with age
@@wehttamaloveschicken7916 Honestly, are you so insecurr about their fame that you have to mention them? This is about Avril. I am a huge Demi fan myself but I would be really stupid if I commented everything here with "but Demi is awesome too" and "yeah watch Shania Twains performance she can sing too"
Avril Lavigne can beat her own studio recording live! Chuck Norris stuff. Jokes aside, this is amazing. Her voice is so beutiful. This is music! So happy that my teenage love is ok and back. We missed you, Avril! We needed you! Music industry needed you! I send you all my love from Serbia!
I don't like award shows... People like differently and we all have our own taste who even decide the winners? Fans, selected judges.. All of it are based on personal preferences one is not best from the other it is just not the song that you like but others do. Just sharing my opinion. 😁
This is the kind of performance we need more nowadays in music industry. Listen to the vocal and tye back-up team. This is flawless , fresh and energetic. We need more of this not a syntetic sound.
You too huh? 1:32 - when she sings the chorus in harmony with the background vocals... total chill spike. I've followed Avril since I heard 'I'm with you' 16 years ago. This song is so powerful and deep. It really is an achievement for her.
Avril said she was working on 20+ songs for her next album and she said she'll have a lot of songs in this style and she'll also have some rock style songs so don't worry she'll please everyone , can't wait for it :) (btw those asking for proof just search her live stream from november 2017 , and her interview earlier this year )
No, wait. Let's get that stratight. Back in November 2017, there was a Facebook Live where she said she had recorded 20+ songs, no one ever mentioned them all ending up on the album. She NEVER said that there will be more songs like this on the album neither "a lot". (Or give me a source.) There was an IG story waaaay back, I don't even remember when, where she said that she was working on punk rock songs to rock out on stage to.
When I first heard this song I had to hold back my emotions because I was at a course. I came home, rolled up and went for a smoke with my headphones. When the bridge and final chorus came in I broke down in tears, just the way she pleads ‘don’t let me drown’ like please don’t let me die just yet and that hit me so hard. This song can also be a reference to depression as well as her fight for Lyme disease so Thankyou Avril, this song made me feel much stronger!
I can relate...I’ve been dealing with health problems since August of feeling a lot of pressure on my head sometimes and being woozy a lot. I’ve been to like 4 doctors and I’m still not 100% sure what it is. Sometimes I hear this song and it just makes me want to breakdown...I hate what I’ve been going through and sometimes I just don’t know how to deal with it. This song calms me a lot...and I always pray to God to release me from this hell I’m going through.
I like how human this video comes across. She adjusts her sound control box behind her mid song and later looks down to the song sheet. Also Avril is dressed casual and that's very cool. The human side is so important and something we all need to see sometimes. Very good stuff. Keep up the good work Avril.
@@jessbenton3152 Yes I think Avril Lavigne comes from her own mold. If you watch documentrys about her from the early 2000s she was kind of the artist for the common people. I am glad to see Avril is getting back to the basics of what made her music so popular in the beginning and that is powerful honest real life songs, sung by a brave, and upfront person that regular people can identify with. At least, that's what I think😉😊. Thanks for your comment Lauren B.
In 2002 in found Avril. Her songs often helped me when storms came to my life. Than came a big storm to her life. I prayed sometimes for her. And God keeped her head above water. I`m so happy she is back. Yes, and she is matured and stronger than before! Thank you God! :)
It's four years later now. God how time flies. We were blessed with that latest album. She really came back stronger that ever. I hope to hear her again. I'm getting old at 31 but I can confidently speak for the voice of a generation that Avril was absolutely legendary.
As someone who has Lyme, this song resonated with me so much. I am a musician and a singer. The first time I heard this I started crying and then after I listened to an interview of talking about how Head Above Water was inspired by her battle with Lyme I completely broke down. The song touched me because I could relate to crying out God because I felt like it would never end and and I would never be able to sing again. I was so scared. I was 15 when I was diagnosed in 2017 and that was one of the darkest moments of my life. The treatment made me extremely sick and my body didn’t handle it well, on top of the Lyme, most days I though I was going to die and could hardly get out of bed. It was my relationship with Jesus, music, and my family and friends who got me through. I can only imagine how hard this song was to write. Singing raw lyrics like those is extremely hard on an emotional level. I commend you for your bravery, for being and inspiration, and showing others to keep pushing forward no matter what stands in there way. Avril you are an incredible vocalist and an even more incredible human being!
"I commend you for your bravery, for being and inspiration, and showing others to keep pushing forward no matter what stands in there way. Avril you are an incredible vocalist and an even more incredible human being"
I'm glad that you're here today to tell your story. Keep the faith, whichever that may be for you. It's amazing how music easily translates our feelings into sounds and words and how relatable people's situations can be. Chin up, always. Hugs from a stranger on the interwebs.
Lucy P beautiful words. I have a terminal Disease an i understand that life goes on, and dosent look at its people as Mich as it should, but with posts like this i hope we can all win together!!! ❤️🤗
I like this more than the music video. It has that MTV unplugged feel. Makes it more intimate and raw as opposed to watching her in front of the green screen. Killer vocals. Go Canada.
Her voice is edited and pimped- that‘s never her real voice which can be heard at the echo. The normal songs is much stronger autotuned for effects. It‘s better here but not raw.
mylifeisa mess Watched the 16:48 video and her voice cracks a lot. Only difficult to hear because quality is bad and instruments are too loud. This performance is definitely edited, could be in post production too, so it sounds more powerful and spectacular
Exactly. Her performances are the Best. Others can't sing so precisely; they can't nail every note 100% as she can. Only Avril can -- she always could -- ever since she was 8 y.o., even with something as difficult as a national anthem she was always capable of perfect rendition. As to the US anthem only Carry Underwood can give the anthem its due credit. As to Avril, she is the best singer there is (when it comes to feeling music). Period. Others need heavy autotuning, lip-syncing, etc. But Avril's feel outdoes them all. She can go without autotuning and still be perfect. Only she can pull that off because others won't be perfect without autotune like Avril. Yes, others can go without autotune too but, there's a large "but": Their music won't perfect.
Now that was a flawless and powerful performance. I literally got goosebumps. It’s so great to hear her voice again and it's amazing that this is just her lead single from the album which has got me even more excited to hear the rest of her album. We just covered “Head Above Water” on my channel, hope you will watch it. Avril is back and stronger than ever and the emotion you hear in her voice during this performance is breathtaking. I'm blown away.
tenorbuds I love how you slipped a little self-promo in there, but you actually wrote a very sweet comment about the video around it. Very tastefully done, I will definitely check out your cover.
She stand's tall once again! Her song has meaning and shows what it stand's for! Lyme disease is debilitating and Canada needs to improve there testing.....For sure with a Grammy!
This. This is real talent. She sounds incredible live..... why? Because she isn’t a fabricated act. She can sing and write. We need more of this in the industry. Not these bs artists who are a size 0, have no talent at all........ and will do whatever the label wants.
Amen. Dear Lord, don't let Avril drown. As she rises from the ocean floor by your grace, help her to become a life raft to help those who are sinking. Increase the strength of her voice to speak to a generation that needs to 'not fall asleep'.
This song has truly saved my life on multiple occasions. I have severe depression and anxiety and have attempted suicide a few times. I remember when I heard this song for the first time the day it came out and I literally bawled my eyes out. I couldn’t stop listening to it. Even now I still listen to this song a couple times a day. This song has helped me in so many ways and has given me hope. Even though I actually don’t believe in God, this song is so special to me and will always have a special place in my heart. Avril Lavigne also happens to be one of my all-time favorite singers so it makes it even more special. And I just absolutely love this live rendition. Thank you Avril so much for writing this song and keeping my head above water❣️
Sounds exactly like the studio version! This is real talent
She might be lip syncing then xD
Hell yeah!😍😍😍
@@killingstreak9641 jajaja... no 👍
That's not true
There are some parts she sings different (NO HATE)
“I’m too young to fall asleep”
This made me cry.
Me too

Exactly the part that made me cry when I first heard it
Mee too😭
Ditch Spaksch did you know the legendary lady herself actually cried when she was interviewed about her struggle with Lyme disease, poor Avril
THIS SONG DESERVES a GRAMMY in 4 months for sure. There is no doubt now.

She really is...
If it does win a Grammy, it would go to the songwriters who are Stephan Moccio and Travis Clark.
That song is life but... She has to achieve global success to win a grammy. That song couldn't hit the charts. Sorry she won't. :(
Avril is a queen, she's the voice of a generation and her vocals are just out of this world. She is incredible
Wrong Avril is the MOTHER FUCKING Princess.
@@hayatosymons8384 Omg, yes 👑👑👑

2002-2018....she looks young and sweet like before....
Vocal legend
This is the kind of performance we need more nowadays in music industry. Listen to the vocal and tye back-up team. This is flawless , fresh and energetic. We need more of this not a syntetic sound.
she sounds good live and on cd. Some artists totally stink when they sing live. She sings the same in both avenues.....she's an awesome singer.
True
Yes!
Fact🔥
Yes
thats y i love her
I get chills from this performance!!
You too huh? 1:32 - when she sings the chorus in harmony with the background vocals... total chill spike.
I've followed Avril since I heard 'I'm with you' 16 years ago. This song is so powerful and deep. It really is an achievement for her.
You don't need to be subbed to a channel to enjoy the content lol!!
@Justin Justin is troll
@@SuzyLuOfficial yess 💯 Agree
@@SuzyLuOfficial your here too that's awesome!!
"I'm too young to fall asleep" that's damn deeep

hi
@@pallabray7997 hey!
how r u
@@pallabray7997 ...good? You?
This was her encore song last night in Charlotte and it was just perfect 🩷☠️🩷
Her voice in this performance even better than her MV record 😍
avril, please change the category back to "Music" in the official music video!!!
yes, it is really important !! Please Avril !! We love you and we want to help you!!
What do you mean? :) Isn't the category already music, or am I wrong? :)
Why does categories matter?
.
@@rounman5583 because the youtube music
Avril said she was working on 20+ songs for her next album and she said she'll have a lot of songs in this style and she'll also have some rock style songs so don't worry she'll please everyone , can't wait for it :) (btw those asking for proof just search her live stream from november 2017 , and her interview earlier this year )
Are you sure? Omg thank God. I want to listen to her rock songs!
where did she say it?
Jay Sandler can't wait 20 songs is ❤❤
No, wait. Let's get that stratight. Back in November 2017, there was a Facebook Live where she said she had recorded 20+ songs, no one ever mentioned them all ending up on the album.
She NEVER said that there will be more songs like this on the album neither "a lot". (Or give me a source.)
There was an IG story waaaay back, I don't even remember when, where she said that she was working on punk rock songs to rock out on stage to.
Wait omg where did she say this?!
Her voice is still so beautiful!
She deserves more recognition!
This is the only comeback I was looking for!
Yeah me too
Keep streaming to support her comeback
Me too.
When I first heard this song I had to hold back my emotions because I was at a course. I came home, rolled up and went for a smoke with my headphones. When the bridge and final chorus came in I broke down in tears, just the way she pleads ‘don’t let me drown’ like please don’t let me die just yet and that hit me so hard. This song can also be a reference to depression as well as her fight for Lyme disease so Thankyou Avril, this song made me feel much stronger!
Praise God! That's awesome dude :)
same thoughts. but i dont smoke ^^
Same here. This song really hits me! #KeepinTheFaith
I can relate...I’ve been dealing with health problems since August of feeling a lot of pressure on my head sometimes and being woozy a lot. I’ve been to like 4 doctors and I’m still not 100% sure what it is. Sometimes I hear this song and it just makes me want to breakdown...I hate what I’ve been going through and sometimes I just don’t know how to deal with it. This song calms me a lot...and I always pray to God to release me from this hell I’m going through.
@@tomasgarcia7499 stay the fuck strong OK mate?
This song has saved my life numerous times just realizing it.
God communicates and works through music to me
I like how human this video comes across. She adjusts her sound control box behind her mid song and later looks down to the song sheet. Also Avril is dressed casual and that's very cool. The human side is so important and something we all need to see sometimes. Very good stuff. Keep up the good work Avril.
Caleb Gilbert I like this comment. And it’s true, it feels more personal seeing her dress casual and even with the song sheet. Loved it
@@jessbenton3152 Yes I think Avril Lavigne comes from her own mold. If you watch documentrys about her from the early 2000s she was kind of the artist for the common people. I am glad to see Avril is getting back to the basics of what made her music so popular in the beginning and that is powerful honest real life songs, sung by a brave, and upfront person that regular people can identify with. At least, that's what I think😉😊. Thanks for your comment Lauren B.
In 2002 in found Avril. Her songs often helped me when storms came to my life.
Than came a big storm to her life. I prayed sometimes for her. And God keeped her head above water. I`m so happy she is back. Yes, and she is matured and stronger than before! Thank you God! :)
What happended to her ?
she was diagnosed with Lyme disease (dunno if i spelled that right)
Storms are seasonal, but strength is forever. :)
Song of the year....
Spudly1234567 Lyme disease is transmitted through the bite of a tick.
This shows the level of Grammys. Grammy doesn't deserve Avril. She is too much for them...
GRAMMY IS ABOUT MONEY NOT ABOUT TALENT SO GRAMMY WTF
It's four years later now. God how time flies. We were blessed with that latest album. She really came back stronger that ever. I hope to hear her again. I'm getting old at 31 but I can confidently speak for the voice of a generation that Avril was absolutely legendary.
As someone who has Lyme, this song resonated with me so much. I am a musician and a singer. The first time I heard this I started crying and then after I listened to an interview of talking about how Head Above Water was inspired by her battle with Lyme I completely broke down. The song touched me because I could relate to crying out God because I felt like it would never end and and I would never be able to sing again. I was so scared. I was 15 when I was diagnosed in 2017 and that was one of the darkest moments of my life. The treatment made me extremely sick and my body didn’t handle it well, on top of the Lyme, most days I though I was going to die and could hardly get out of bed. It was my relationship with Jesus, music, and my family and friends who got me through. I can only imagine how hard this song was to write. Singing raw lyrics like those is extremely hard on an emotional level. I commend you for your bravery, for being and inspiration, and showing others to keep pushing forward no matter what stands in there way. Avril you are an incredible vocalist and an even more incredible human being!

NeverKnew Masquerade So true!
I'm glad that you're here today to tell your story. Keep the faith, whichever that may be for you. It's amazing how music easily translates our feelings into sounds and words and how relatable people's situations can be. Chin up, always. Hugs from a stranger on the interwebs.
Lucy P beautiful words. I have a terminal Disease an i understand that life goes on, and dosent look at its people as Mich as it should, but with posts like this i hope we can all win together!!! ❤️🤗
marco3055 thank you so much
I like this more than the music video. It has that MTV unplugged feel. Makes it more intimate and raw as opposed to watching her in front of the green screen. Killer vocals. Go Canada.

I hope there will be a James Corden Carpool with Avril Lavigne soon 😁
I hope so! That would be epic!
Muhammad Faisal Azmi yas me too
Yass
Yes this would be amazing!
pls
Never had enough of this performance. Avril is a Queen. ❤
I've never seen a live performance as best Avril did. So beautiful. You're surely talented! ❤️❤️❤️
Her voice is edited and pimped- that‘s never her real voice which can be heard at the echo. The normal songs is much stronger autotuned for effects. It‘s better here but not raw.
Check out zayn then
Check out P!nk then lol
mylifeisa mess Watched the 16:48 video and her voice cracks a lot. Only difficult to hear because quality is bad and instruments are too loud. This performance is definitely edited, could be in post production too, so it sounds more powerful and spectacular
Exactly. Her performances are the Best. Others can't sing so precisely; they can't nail every note 100% as she can. Only Avril can -- she always could -- ever since she was 8 y.o., even with something as difficult as a national anthem she was always capable of perfect rendition. As to the US anthem only Carry Underwood can give the anthem its due credit. As to Avril, she is the best singer there is (when it comes to feeling music). Period. Others need heavy autotuning, lip-syncing, etc. But Avril's feel outdoes them all. She can go without autotuning and still be perfect. Only she can pull that off because others won't be perfect without autotune like Avril. Yes, others can go without autotune too but, there's a large "but": Their music won't perfect.
Oh gosh, she's still so beautiful. Can't believe it. Her voice, her face... everything is perfect.
I know probably the most beautiful voice on earth
yeah😊😊
Forgot about the beautiful soul Rafael
Yeah👌🏼👏
why is she so gorgeous?
So beautiful ❤️🥰💯
She sounds better live 😍😍 love her voice
She always does since day one 😍
Pilar Martinez same
Mavi Rose trueeee😍
Thanks God for keeping this angel around us, her voice will always be the immortal one
An absolutely beautiful, stunning performer, her looks are like no other, her energy at her age is contagious!😮
As someone who's been battling Lyme for over five years now. I can fully relate. Thank you for bringing the battle with Lyme into the spot light.

IIIIII Looooove Youuuuuuuu!
Now that was a flawless and powerful performance. I literally got goosebumps. It’s so great to hear her voice again and it's amazing that this is just her lead single from the album which has got me even more excited to hear the rest of her album. We just covered “Head Above Water” on my channel, hope you will watch it. Avril is back and stronger than ever and the emotion you hear in her voice during this performance is breathtaking. I'm blown away.
I literally cried after watching her performance.
Finished your cover and it was really good. Love your harmonies.
Lol I see you guys everywhere 😂😂 such dedication
tenorbuds I love how you slipped a little self-promo in there, but you actually wrote a very sweet comment about the video around it. Very tastefully done, I will definitely check out your cover.
She stand's tall once again! Her song has meaning and shows what it stand's for! Lyme disease is debilitating and Canada needs to improve there testing.....For sure with a Grammy!
This. This is real talent. She sounds incredible live..... why? Because she isn’t a fabricated act. She can sing and write. We need more of this in the industry. Not these bs artists who are a size 0, have no talent at all........ and will do whatever the label wants.
I feel like Taylor Swift is a good example of a great singer and writer as well
@@perdasche taylors voice is ok. Nothing special. Her writing is very good though in my opinion.

Cilla M. imagine when she didn’t have that disease, she was even better, the lyme disease affects directly her vocals so she has to take care
@@sofiaolave6420 Actually,everybody has been pointing out that her singing voice is actually better.Stronger than ever.
Yeah!!
Weapons Of Warfare now is a little more noisy :/
Weapons Of Warfare watch her recent Girlfriend performance
OMG!!! Her voice sound better than audio!! Her voice is so amazing!!!
She put her heart and soul into this performance 😭❤️
Like she always does! 💞
Best gospel song I’ve heard in years Every time I hear this I feel closer to Christ Her song is inspired So glad she recovered from her illness
Amen. Dear Lord, don't let Avril drown. As she rises from the ocean floor by your grace, help her to become a life raft to help those who are sinking. Increase the strength of her voice to speak to a generation that needs to 'not fall asleep'.
Amen
Amen
Amen! God is truly a wonderful and almighty God. His love is the most amazing love that I've ever felt.
mydogspet Amen. That made me tear up. You took the words right out of my mouth :)
mydogspet Amen!
This song has truly saved my life on multiple occasions. I have severe depression and anxiety and have attempted suicide a few times. I remember when I heard this song for the first time the day it came out and I literally bawled my eyes out. I couldn’t stop listening to it. Even now I still listen to this song a couple times a day. This song has helped me in so many ways and has given me hope. Even though I actually don’t believe in God, this song is so special to me and will always have a special place in my heart. Avril Lavigne also happens to be one of my all-time favorite singers so it makes it even more special. And I just absolutely love this live rendition. Thank you Avril so much for writing this song and keeping my head above water❣️
Stay strong
I'll send best wishes to your heart.
Stay strong...
Dude, life is worth living
Stay strong bro, life is so precious
God is with you
