Zach said it on Bandaids

I only need a west coast streaming channel to watch it live in Italy in the morning

This is Avril's first work right? Taylor Swift worked this sound later.

Naw, she just sang this for some dude's Christian album.

Why are most of you guys so impatient?

Because we've been waiting for too long!

We are unapologetic when it comes to her charting because we waited for too damn long for this single and will wait even more for the album that was supposed to come out last year already. They had enough and more time to arrange the whole era.
Also there was a hope, the new label would treat her right, unlike RCA, especially if she is the biggest artist in that label.

I'm sad the album is delayed until September but at least I have Ciara to look forward to!

For what? She has been outselling nearly everybody since 16 and you guys have no confidence in her?

This isn't going to be GL 2.0. The label fully supports her and she has a ton of excitement for this album. Lets put it this way, No offense to other artists, but look at Epic's roster. What do you see? Avril is clearly Epic's golden goose and they will fully back her up to guarantee some sort of profit.

Since this thread needs some positivity, HTNGU has now become my favorite song Avril has ever recorded and WILL BECOME A HIT

I think the reason for the delays and everything was strictly because of L.A Reid. He was focused and dedicated to X Factor and knew it. I think he purposely delayed both Avril & Ciara so that he would actually have the time to do things right.

Avril even said that HTNGU was recorded only a few months ago, clearly she decided to record more. Epic will treat her much better than RCA did without a doubt.

All this negativity though..

I second that. HTNGU is one of the best songs of 2013 in my opinion. I'm sure it will smash.

I don't think LA Reid's appearance on X-Factor had him busy so much. Like he was just a judge. Ciara finally got a release date because she finally got a minor hit, not a complete flop.

I think there was again a problem with picking the "radio friendly" lead single so they got Avril to record more and more, got her working with Kesha writer and eventually settled on HTNGU (that's why it was recorded only a few months ago). They are doing the same mistake RCA did with WTH

Back to #56 on iTunes.

No offense to you at all but you got your facts mixed up. L.A wasn't "just a judge" he was also a mentor. He worked a lot with his contestants and I'm sure he was plenty busy. I'll post his quote again: ( L.A's answer when asked why he was leaving X Factor)

"I have a company to run that I've kind of neglected. I have a huge responsibility to a roster of artists and it’s kind of time for me to stop doing the ‘me’ show."

He even admits to neglected his artists. He screwed up Ciara by trying to do X Factor and start her era at the same time. The result? Every song failed and the album kept getting delayed. Now he is done X Factor and she happened to get a hit. (compared to her other songs) It wasn't a coincidence...

As for them picking HTNGU because it was "radio friendly"? I don't think so. When WTH released, Avril stated multiple times that it was the least personal song on the album and blamed RCA for the albums content delays. Obviously, Avril wasn't happy at all with RCA or she wouldn't of left to begin with. Avril said in the interview with Ryan that she picked HTNGU as the lead single and she was very excited that L.A agreed with her decision. This is the exact opposite of the GL situation.

I believe you guys are just looking for someone to blame for HTNGU's "failure" Epic hasn't done anything wrong yet and the promo schedule looks great so far.
