Avril Lavigne - Greatest Hits [2LP]

Avril Lavigne's Greatest Hits gathers more than two decades of pop-punk anthems and big-hearted ballads onto two LPs.

Released in 2024 alongside her Greatest Hits Tour, the collection runs from her 2002 debut right through the pop-punk revival she helped inspire. It maps the whole arc, from the skater-girl attitude that made her a teenage icon to the more reflective material of her later records, plus recent collaborations with YUNGBLUD, mgk and blackbear.

The opening stretch is a near-perfect run of singles. "Sk8er Boi" is still a three-minute story everyone knows by heart, "Girlfriend" is pure cheerleader-chant swagger, and "Complicated" remains one of the sharpest debut singles of its era. Later on, "I'm with You" slows things down to reveal the open-hearted songwriter underneath the eyeliner.

Hearing these songs side by side underlines how consistent her instincts have been. The guitars crunch, the hooks keep coming, and her voice moves easily between sneer and vulnerability without ever sounding forced.

A whole generation of younger artists now openly cites her as an influence, and this set makes it easy to hear why. It works as the definitive overview of the Canadian star's career so far, ready for loud, nostalgic singalongs with friends who still know every word.
