It was pushed back several times, there was some shoehorned hitmakers songs (that weren't even really good), awful single choices, bad and forced image and blatant lack of promo and support from RCA, etc. It was a messy era altogether It will always remain as a underrated and under-appreciated album
OMG i was just coming in to say the same thing! my second favourite Avril album.. its such a shame it flopped!!! i will never EVER forgive RCA for how they screwed this over!!
Marina & the Diamonds - Electra Heart
Nicola Roberts - Cinderella's Eyes
Usher - Looking 4 Myself (it's not a great album, but it's really solid and catchy i didn't expect this to flop tbh)
No Doubt - Push & Shove
Ellie Goulding - Halcyon
We can't say Halcyon is a flop since it's been 2 months from the release. Let's talk about this after the era ends. I can see this album selling close to 2m worldwide.
