Avril Lavigne & Goo Goo Dolls - Iris [Live]

[tearoutyoursoul]

avril's singing is too flat....

[Weenybean]

No feeling, no emotion, just trying to stay in tune... sorry Avril

[p95humbucker]

Avril Fail..

[TheNumetalrocker]

this song is one of the most amazingly written songs of all time!

[javius1220]

great singer, songwriter and guitarist. his BIGGEST mistake was naming themselves the "goo goo dolls" what a bummer and a disappointment

[chrissoccerkilla]

@javius1220 The Goo Goo Dolls were originally called The Sex Maggots... They had to change it for a promoter, otherwise no one may know about them, dumbass...

[wayla711MJ829]

I don't know what all of you are talking about..I think they sound so good together :)

[rickyboom00]

Its awesome !!!!!

[ValaBlake]

Johnny's always amazing and I love watching him play guitar. He's a great overall musician, songwriter and singer.  =)

[mabunisensei]

she's horrible !!!!! puaaaah, learn how to sing !!

[dasczwo]

wow, my feet got numb...

[WayneM70]

I think Avril is singing with passion... But John is just the natural element of the song... John really is the song

[warriorfire8103]

People are in love with the original so it is difficult to appreciate this new take.

[gab23000]

love you  avril

[oldmanscave]

I'll agree on that!!

[oldmanscave]

I think John sings it better!

[wolfladydonna]

@oldmanscave SO DO I  He IS VERRY GOOD LOOKING TOO!!

[gitano71]

Geez.

No damn passion with this song on Avril's part!

[montizak]

so bad avril 

[Zlyzer]

@montizak I disagree. She's taken a different approach to the song but it's enchanting

[shinshin1000]

@rhodestar Well said!

[mattgirl90]

I love Avril to death...but she could've done better. John was amazing as usual <3

[riffster007]

Anyone else notice how the crowd actually get excited when John starts singing?? It was a nice idea but she sings this like a bad karaoke singer!!

[LazyRay87]

why must that be? What did the dolls get to bear this accidential voice

But her make up is pefect anyway... :/

[AJCH100]

She's kinda screaming out

[ctnazira]

the lead guitarist is hot!

[rhodestar]

Ive figured the reason why it sounds like 'there's no passion' is because she's singing in the same octave the whole song, making the chorus seem to have no impact. She probobly can't sing well in lower octaves

[lassiefan97]

Well i like avril lavigne shes good, but this song.... SHE CANT SING.! LOL. Love the orignal tho. Best song ever.

[moneylover19]

SHE PLAYED THIS SONG AT HER WEDDING

[BrunaaMatos]

she is very nervous :s

she can't sing this song ! but she has a great voice :)

[rovigne]

maybe she's too nervous

[poisonblack83]

she sings like she's afraid to forget the lyrics.. with no passion :( esp. at the part when she says '' and i dont want the world to see me... ''

[lucrativefiction]

can avril just please stop mucking up such an amazing song. God, she has no feelings up there. If you dont have a great voice, at least have the presence and passion to back it up!

[pattylovelost1]

i actually like how she sings it... idk why lol

[happyface011000]

@pattylovelost1

haha me too!=)

[sean022]

she's better to look at than to listen to....

[hardlines4]

What the hell??!!

[mayah695]

simplesmente maravilhosa essa música...amo avril, adoro goo goo dolls...

os dois juntos...ficooou perfeitooo (L³

[Aline26rzt]

Essa moça conseguiu estragar uma música linda!

[surkillotupac]

one word: karaoke!

[blurch]

I thought she would destroy the song but she gave it her spin but stayed true to the original song which is incredibly gorgeous...

[riaa]

avril butchered the song in my opinion...

however she is standing up there singing with john rzeznik himself so there's not much to say

[TochaPL]

Let's mute her!

[jhaosui]

this song is related to a special som1,,,i knw we will see each other... in time

WEN EVRYTHNGS MADE 2 BE BROKEN,,, I JUST WNT U 2 KNW HU i AM

[unorthodoxmuse]

blechk avril yum Johnny

[Pigoito3]

I love this music! And Avril is amazing!! It's amazing! Avril with Goo Goo dolls singing Iris...amazing! She sign with passion! she's brilliant

[eufhrex]

she was just standing there looking so bored!!! damn!!! and she sang it really bad... straight tone... no emotions... plain singing like she's with her friends doing karaoke or something... there really is no passion... i can't see it... she really is just a plank of wood...

[MySuicideBoy]

she sounds like she's putting absolutely NO meaning into the song. :| .

She's like a plank of wood :/

[blackness1747]

Butchered.

[hit3007]

avril is good to watch only with the sound muted ! .. on the other hand, goo goo dolls are awsome !

[ditzydeezy]

it's nice when they sing together but i don't really like it when she sings solo

[avazagorath]

wow, avril.. i luv ds song ever, just goo goo dolls..!-jenroz-

[orochireckless]

she sings wrong. "coz ı know that you feel me somehow." correct one .she sings".....feel you somehow" lol :D

[silentbutdeadly003]

avril is a lil nervous singing this song can you tell

but she did a wonderful performance she is a beautiful singer i wish she stayed her style instead of having fame take over if you know what im talking about avril is beautiful and sings like an angel

[2loveYou16]

he's getting so old but he's still FINE! xD

[euoula91]

ouou they are great....

[ladani67]

geez you killed the song way to go avril!

[guypineapple]

idk why people are criticizing avril so much, this is the type of song that she used to sing 4 years ago, and I think she has a beautiful voice, obviously the goo goo dolls believed that to, otherwise they wouldn't be singing with her

[adidashoodyman]

she cant sing tho :L

[adidashoodyman]

avril lavign is fit

[hekkie55]

she doesn't sing with passion, to bad...

[smintastic]

she screwed up one of the best songs of all time!!!!!!

[Riss313]

Agree, i mean I like avril but this song just isn't right for her.

[nawercensura]

Avril is just studio work. No passion. Please someone recomend me something good of her to change my mind.

[Tommclane]

they could have harmonised each other in the chorus. doesnt sound very good both singin the same notes. just sounds like fans singing along,

[meepmeep0sydney]

omg....ive lost all my respect for avril lavigne....she ruined one of the greatest songs of all time

[cetinsid]

i literally can not understand how this lady's record have been sold millions of copies....terrible

[josefino72]

i guess we all agree

[josefino72]

she sounds horrible

[dleifnekgirl]

I wanted to like it, but it was one of the worst things I've ever heard...

[onlymes]

avril stop ruining others' great songs...srsly...sigh

[esoramle]

at 3:49, John had the wrong note!!! lol

[turbostapler12]

ya but john messes up 2 on guitar but still his face was pricless after she messed up lol

[scotster92391]

she killed it big time

[blink182scotty]

yer but shes hot! lol

[scotster92391]

lol tru very tru

[pandasquirl]

lol look at john when avril messes up XD

[xxPooperScooper94xx]

where does she mess up?

It probably very obvious.. just couldn't spot it xD

thanks :)

[RankielShenanigans]

she didn't messed up

[pandasquirl]

oki she said "cuz i kno tht I feel u somehow" its suppose to be cuz i kno tht u feel me somehow

[RankielShenanigans]

ah yeah...

[UnleashthePhury]

Re-arranging a song to actually make it seem like two people are talking to each other isn't exactly uncommon; she didn't make a mistake, they re-worked the song.

[pandasquirl]

if they re-arranged it y did jo they glance a look at her when she said a wrong lyric

[armandmadewnus5]

i think in the original one is from boy to a girl

i think in this version it's from a girl to a boy

:)

[stormkid198]

it was supposed to be cuz i know that you feel me somehow. she did mess up

[cloudyskies15]

i like avril and i love the goo goo dolls and this song. but avril just messes it up :-( not only the lyrics, but also...she seems like falling asleep while singing it :-( such a shame...

[X0RoXStaR0X]

Totaly agree with you man...

[cloudyskies15]

thanks ;-)

[jibica7]

I agree! Shame on her...

[lylatina91]

ugh she had NO emotion >=|

[monster10123]

Im surprised that johnny went the octavie higher

[Slacktoo]

U can tell he struggled, same as with Raine Maida from Our Lady Peace, he can't sing high notes like he used to

[Rowina18]

And you can hear he does it not perfectly.

I bet he did sing in the original octave just to cover her voice :D

But I'm glad he did, whatever the way.

[OldAndOutofTune]

I'm like the only one who Adoresss Avril singing this. I don't really like the original. I also love Sam Koster's cover.

[sherwintio]

OldAndOutofTune, you suck!!!!!!!!!

cover is nothing compared to the original... Original is the BEST..

oAK69o and ferowitch are right...

[metaldevil49]

everyone went crazy when john started singing :D

[nativetongue00]

failed

[greenadrenaline6405]

The original will always be the best

usually Avril sucks on a cover of famous songs

but this one i can tolerate....strange

[egle757]

o man shes killin the song

[ferowitch]

oAK69o... You are totaly right! She's a good singer but not for this song!

[oAK69o]

She is not suited for this song; his vocals express the emotion in of the lyrics as opposed to her young voice that sounds as though they read instead of felt.

[ShifulChoudhury]

awesome song, love it. Had to have a go at singing it. Its on my youtube page.

[grixxxx]

beautiful..so classic the song even listen to it many years later..still love it..Avril's performance was alright;original version 's till the best.

[pelitosduros18]

Avril Lavigne ke Hermosa esta niña.. siempre me ah gustado .. y pucha ke dupla con Goo Goo Dolls .. y ke algo mas mejor que ambos cantar este lindo tema Iris..

[jlcg11]

=S this is not possible! avril sucks!!!!

[12ifeveryonecared]

Avril Lavigne & GooGoo Dolls?!?!

avril is perfect but to old for me =b... she is beautiful...ugh... but she is married >:\

lol

Iris.......is the name of the girl i felt in love when i was living in Mexico........i miss her....i wonder if she remembers me we were both very young...

[Adurama]

i think she ruined my favorite song

[efectocelestia]

sadly I think that too, I guess the key is too low for her voice.

[itrust2006]

NO WAY!

[dannyj28601]

she may be flat, but keep into consideration how much she was prolly singing that night..her voice was prolly a wee bit tired

[UltimateDud]

She's a bit flat on this song, I think it may be a low for her.

[SlappytheNinja]

I'm not a big fan of the vocal melody in this song.

[smilesonmonday]

They sound terrible together.

[MillaLi22]

lol... they zap her a look at 0:41 when she uses the rong line. hahaha. good lawd, doesnt she kno she shud just stick to her little girl teeny boppin songs?????? she's pretty though..

[nzifini]

Oh, damn, she should make the waiter :s

P.S.: normally the female voices covers the male voice in high notes...

Why here it doesn't happen?

she can't cover neither a whisper...

sucks...

[darkpunkguy1984]

She really sucks at singing this one!

[rahkeys]

Avril suxx...y da hell did she have to mess up with this beautiful song?--*

[ingridkjeee]

avril lavigne sucks live !

thats it !

[swizzle88711]

she is really pretty

[slappingbelly]

Bum Note! 3:49

Oh, Doctor!

[Germanscrub]

yah you're right^^

[VEGETRONKS]

when was that ???????

[willmolinar]

That was nice of him to let her do it. Go Goo Goo Dolls!

[metallica001]

She messed up the second line~!

[HIKO91]

Damnit....she screwed the pooch O.o maybe she shouldn't played the guitar hell....

[liveovercome]

is this a karaoke bar?

[zero5177]

her voice doesn't sounds good in live performance... :<

[heesung]

thanks avril for ruining this performance.

[LadyRidell]

It could have been worse... Maybe she's just nervous?

After all, she IS up there with JOHNNY RZEZNIK!!!

<3 <3 <3 HE'S SO HOT!!! <3 <3 <3

[itsyourboygreg]

actually celine dion should do it. i would love that. but this is decent.

[aequitas99]

shes a terribleee singer

[Lukianne]

the song is much better off without her

[AmyCali00]

yea she ruined it....

[brezovc]

i dont like her to sing other songs she cant sing very good :/

[RKsaygoes]

She has talent, but all of her new stuff sucks. Her old stuff was pretty good. This is okay, but not even close to the original.

[aneeshrokz]

epic fail

[LolipopSuicide]

You Can Honestly Tell He REALLY Didn't Want Her To Be Ruining..I Mean Singing This Song o.o

[Pills526]

I know she totally ruined this song, she has too much of a punk girl voice

[alexagra123456789]

musica podre..

vao todos vcs pra puta qeu os pariram seus merda!

[rockgod20000]

she can sing but she doesnt have the right tone or feel for the song! stick with girlfriend

[DonaGata]

Pronto. Estragou tudo.

[candysweet434]

uggggggggh my ears, my ears.

[anatinoni]

Johnny was probably thinking.."fuck this chick is messing up my song..I shouldn't have accepted to sing with her"..hahah

[sephioth5]

omfg Avril sucks live...She sings well but she doesn´t move...

[astrosfan887]

avril lavigne aint a good singer but at least she has a good taste in music

[aerofann90]

god i wished that the goo goo dolls could've performed it on their own, they sound sooooooooooooooo much better without her

[auspunk79]

Fuck off Avril

[gassyfartypoop]

i dont care if she cant sing.. she is cute as hell

[Pills526]

yeah if you're emo

[xhaleyxx]

wow i can't even listen to this, she just wrecked that song...

i absolutly adore the Goo Goo Dolls and i love this song, but oh my god, get her off that stage.

[laurenhakala]

oh my god. i saw avril live once and crap she was bad, but i forgot just how bad. she totally killed that song. poor johnny, he shoulda just done it by himself. thats the best song ever written and avril killed it.

LOVE YOU JOHNNY AND THE GOOS!

[lorcanfurey111]

I know... its quite sad..... she killed one of my favorite songs!

[imprezka7]

i can listen this all the time

[yutinggo]

so love the song:)

they are both awesome.

[residentemojacob]

i thought it was really good.

she seemed nervous though.

but honestly, how many chances are you gonna get to perform with a band as epic as the goo goo dolls?

[telerocker25]

okay not only did she suck in my eyes, she blew the lyrics.. i believe the lyrics are "and i'd give up forever to touch you, cause i know that you'd feel me somehow.".. NOT "and i'd give up forever to touch you, cause i know that i'd feel you somehow." okay and i think i seen the rzez eyeing her funny for it.

[mikemusicman]

SHE wasnt as gd as she cud of made it but hse stilla gd singer

[MartijnFoF]

wow avril doesn't sing very well at this performance, I like her but this isn't very good

[crustifer]

I love Avril, but she could have done a better job, :^/

[poknut2008]

go avril roCk oN! \m/

[anuls]

uh oh when john took his vesre everyone cheered and when avril was up there everyone was quite hehe

[live2lovegoo4ever]

HAHAHAHAHHAHA

I know

[ArthurKatz]

Whey does she always say 'ch' instead of 't' ?

Nice cover, I think it's better without avril.

[PrisonBreakGirl87]

avril couldnt pull it off

[stepxunit]

very nice song but avril isnt singing really good : (

[lolrofllool]

I agree.
