And if the songs from GL were simply demos that leaked on the way to fleshing them out into full songs, maybe I'd give them the occasional listen, too.
The only songs that really sound anything like Avril had done ON AN ALBUM before were WTH and Alice.

Smile, WYWH and most of the Max stuff would have fit right on TBDT.
Darlin' could have been on Let Go - and was probably considered for it seeing as she wrote it over a decade ago.
4 Real, Everybody Hurts would have fit on UMS.
The only songs I can't imagine fitting perfectly on any of her past efforts are the ballads since they aren't bleak enough for UMS or fluffy enough for TBDT
Avril's recorded and sung acoustic material from the very beginning and she's stated that she wanted to make a very acoustic, raw sounding album for a long time. Just because it isn't your cup of tea doesn't make it bad - especially seeing as how most of her fanbase quite enjoyed it.
