Feb 16, 2019HAW is a mature album. She clearly evolved comparing to the last three of her career. The only frank point is Dumb Blonde that is different of the rest of the songs from this album.

Feb 16, 2019Lavigne passou 2 anos em sua cama certo? esse álbum retrata bem o que a mulher passou e viveu, enfrentou a morte e a derrotou e fez sua Vitória em um álbum surpreendentemente bonito, as mensagens que as músicas passam e claro o significado que cada uma tem para lavigne, uma de minhas favoritas foi birdie e tenho certeza que falo em nome dos fãs que ela poderia ser seu próximo single.

Feb 16, 2019Change is the only constant. I know this is a different Avril from the one I fell in love with, but I'm not 15 anymore. She has grown so much over the past decade. To the older me, this is by far her best work.

Feb 16, 2019Um álbum muito maduro, com uma sonoridade emocionante e letras profundas e inspiradoras. Que retorno!!! Valeu cada dia desses seis anos.

Feb 17, 2019This album is the real masterpiece of Avril's career. Intimate, personal, calm, profound. Dumb Blonde is the most pathetic song on the album, which does not match the rest of it. Could be discarded or taken advantage of another time. Head Above Water (Song) remains the best along with Tell Me It's Over.

Feb 19, 2019This album is such a emotional and insprirational, of course there are a couple of songs that don't connect with the drama and the feeling of the album, but the songs like it was in me, Birdie and I feel in love with the Devil are so deep and well done. Avril's voice is so clear that you can't feel the feeling of each balad song . congrats Avril , I'd love to give you a hug.

Feb 15, 2019The title of the album hints to the one and only good track on the album. Avril totally wasted a chance to make a good album since her last 2 were really disappointing. But this is just useless. 9/12 songs are so basic that if anybody out here sing them there would be no difference. What a pity.

Feb 15, 2019The title track is definitely a strong, empowering song which opens the album perfectly. The second single released is also a great and soulful balad that I really wish that it was emulated more throughout the album. The rest of the songs just feels very boring and unimpressive and fails to deliver a great tracklist.

Feb 20, 2019This is a masterpiece "It Was In me" it's my favorite. She's so mature right now, I love her so much
-
Mar 5, 2019A mediocre album, you can realize that is like she just lost her essence, there's nothing original in this album, it's not bad in every way but not what you would expect from Avril Lavigne, an album going nowhere.
-
Mar 5, 2019Although produced with good intentions, Lavigne's last album does not match the expectations of the general public after a powerful backstory and first single.

Feb 27, 2019She’s become her own worst nightmare – boring.
-
Feb 21, 2019The best tracks here are those which delve into the power ballads that we know Lavigne can produce so effectively. But other than the album's self-titled lead single and It Was In Me, with soaring orchestrals and subtle keys paving the way for her lung-bursting croons, it feels much like a lost Lavigne seeking a sound that’ll just keep her afloat.
-
Feb 20, 2019On every track, the mad-libs are paired with stylistically diverse arrangements--and invariably plodding tempos. The album’s lone sugar spike is “Dumb Blonde,” a rehashed “Girlfriend” that features a phoned-in Nicki Minaj guest verse midway through and, for some reason, a pre-chorus melody yanked from Lipps, Inc.’s “Funky Town.” In spite of everything, Head Above Water offers one brief moment where Lavigne’s emotional alchemy assumes a bolder musical form that’s properly befitting of her powerhouse vocals and enduring authenticity: the opening stunner of a title track.
