      I don´t like it at all!



    2. 102

      I like the song alot. BUT wtf is it with Avril? Is she too cool/whatever to fucking put some emotion in her face during a video? Seriously, I'd listen to the song on repeat but would never watch the video again. She was fucking useless. The only good part of the video were the clips of the actual movie, which I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS TO COME OUT! I've been waiting almost 2 years for this movie.



    3. 103

      Ahh! Her voice gives me a headache in this song. Im ashamed that this chick is from Canada.

      Re: fuzzybunnie – Totally agree 1000%



    5. 105

      how about i saw this like a month ago… maybe you should stay on tp of things instead of writing crappy books and making tv appearances nobody cares about



    6. 106

      The chorus is terrible :S
      I had to turn it down cause it was hurting me ears



    7. 107

      eh. i tink when it goes wth the movie it'll be better



    8. 108

      She has built her whole career on nothing songs, like Complicated. Her last two albums have been relative flops. Why in the world Tim Burton allowed her to be on the soundtrack? I am not sure. But, he is an amazing director so he must have seen something or been enticed somehow. This track is horrible. It is poorly sung and executed. It should not be on Alice in Wonderland, which might be the biggest new film of 2010. Avatar doesn't count because it debuted last year. I am still anxious to check out the film. I will just have to tune this horrible crap out of it finds itself anywhere in the presentation of the film.



    9. 109

      she looks like a fuckin`mask! hate her! WHY BURTON WHY?



    10. 110

      I really like it! Can't wait for the movie!



    11. 111

      not good at all.



    12. 112

      Awesome! I love Avril and Alice this is perfection! :)



    13. 113

      Her voice has always been mediocre at best, but she certainly screeches her way through this one. I think its hilarious how she always shows up all 'pseudo edgy' in her videos and PR gigs, but she wears chanel and dresses like every other rich 20-something year old in her real life. She is boring and ordinary and needs to stop existing already.



    14. 114

      a bit boring after the 1st minute all we are hearing are her screamings not lyrics



    15. 115

      Why is she screaming? The screaming ruins the whole song! Tim, bad music choice! And if it was Danny ( Elfman)'s decision then kick his arse!



    16. 116

      why didn't they hired a best ARTIST! I have in mind taylor swift but whatever i don't care, avril is just wrong



    17. 117

      I've always been blown away by her vocals she's a really talented singer and songwriter.



    18. 118

      Re: paulina=dan radcliffe fan #1 – Ok. I can get why people don't like this music,

      (I like it. But I love Avrils voice, so maybe I am biased. The video is boring I admit it - It is for promotional purposes on the movie - But it doesn't make me extra excited, so it's not her best music video…)

      BUT comparing AVRIL to Taylor Swift - who can't even sing live to save her live (yeah so she sang once or twice reasonably Ok - that doesn't prove that she's a good live singer) . Avril is amazing live, she is even better than on the record, her lyrics are much better than teen drama (and yes Avril also writtes about it, but she pulls it off much better with Taylor it's just like - "We don't care about the last poor guy you dated!") And to top it all has a better voice, no matter is she pulled it off here or not depending on opinions her voice is definitely better than Taylors!

      - i personally think Avril's voice suits the movie (i would not say no to hayley) but i do think Avril's voice brings what it needs to this particular song (again, opinions opinions …)



    19. 119

      *snores loudly*
      oh wait. i would snore because of its boring ness but that hurt my ears.



    20. 120

      Wow, she is singing out of her range…Awful!!



    21. 121

      avril needs to just die out already, i hate her music.
      always hated it since 'complicated'.



    22. 122

      love the video. hate her voice!!!!!!



    23. 123

      wow, those are some pretty fucking bad lyrics. i guess she got a rhyming dictionary for christmas.

      can't wait for the movie, can live without this song!



    24. 124

      Her voice sounds OK when she tries to sing normally, but all she's doing in this song is screaming and it sounds terrible.



    25. 125

      Mmm definitely not one of her best songs



    26. 126

      awful ugly over
      she needs to retire



    27. 127

      ALANIS COULD HAVE DONE IT SO MUCH BETTER

    28. @v@ says – reply to this

      Re: arkityp – Speak for yourself.
      I agree that she could work on her vocal dynamics over high register shrillness. A vocal coach wouldn't hurt her. As for the song, I like it; she's got something, and it helps contemporize Burton's Alice for today's moviegoers. It's a nice bit of slightly haunting songwriting.



    29. 129

      The tone/timbre of her voice is all wrong for this song. Too screechy/screaming for my tastes. I could see Tori Amos on this track…



    30. 130

      not bad but definitely not her best writing….



    31. 131

      UGH! dear god. i just lost my wood for this movie. thanks, april. you're a jerk.

    32. oandc says – reply to this


      132

      the chorus is annoying. weak.



    33. 133

      She just sort of screams…..



    34. 134

      It wasn't very good. Her "sing with force" efforts just sound like yelling. The lyrics are pretty bad too. All in all, this song if probably the worst choice they could have made for the theme song.



    35. 135

      That was terrible! I don't want to hear her yelling!!!



    36. 136

      What an odd choice. Avril, really?



    37. 137

      The original Alice in Wonderland will always be better than Burton's junk a dunk. I mean, we get it Tim, you're weird, make a GOOD movie now.. Plus, Jefferson Airplane's 'White Rabbit' is a way better Alice song. Avril should go die. Really.



    38. 138

      I mean Avril should die and come back as 5 years ago Avril. She could actually write back then..



    39. 139

      well you cant really expect much.. its april lavignay! i just wish she would stop with the whole angsty-hot-topic-scene thing and just go back to canada



    40. 140

      it doesnt look like she's actually "singing" it.



    41. 141

      Re: newfiechic – She's actually really gorgeous, but she's SUCH A CHILD.



    42. 142

      wow that was crap ha ha ha



    43. 143

      Curious when she will drop the 15 yr old angry at my parents and the world look and get a more updated mature look. Boring!



    44. 144

      I like it! The video is cool too, but why did she wear that shirt at the very end that makes her ass look way bigger than it really is?



    45. 145

      Re: Michiep21 – Yeahh! I tried to like it but is too anoying



    46. 146

      This song sucks. All her partying really destroyed her voice. Video is okay.



    47. 147

      No melody, terrible lyrics, still can't really sing, and she plays one chord on the piano.



    48. 148

      Like fingernails scraping on a blackboard.



    49. 149

      Nice visuals, but I'm sorry, her voice irritates me in the same manner one would find nails scratching on a chalkboard nauseating.



    50. 150

      horrible…the lyrics are so horrible for such an epic movie…boo…and a lot of those clips are narcissistic, but it's Avril so not surprising, the bitch def misses seeing her face in the last 5 yrs lol



    51. 151

      I like the IDEA of this more than I actually like it. Avril is as corny as she's always been. She's beautiful and has an exceptional voice, she just needs a better songwriter.



    52. 152

      love love love it!!!!



    53. 153

      Love Avril.. Such a great artist!



    54. 154

      B-O-R-I-N-G, !!!



    55. 155

      it's like she screams. something is wrong with that audio mix. Massive fail.



    56. 156

      the bits in which she isnt screeching are ok. the video is quite cool though.



    57. 157

      i loved it :)



    58. 158

      BRODY'S HITTING THAT…………



    59. 159

      My ears feel like they are bleeding….yep.. That's blood alright.



    60. 160

      She just sounds like she's whining through the whole thing! It's annoying as all hell.



    61. 161

      I wonder who she stole this song from? It's terrible.



    62. 162

      I love it. The song really sticks in your head.



    63. 163

      Boooooooooooo!



    64. 164

      her singing hurts my feelings



    65. 165

      I like it! Im super excited for the movie… although when she sings really high… it gets super pitchy… too high! but Love her! :D



    66. 166

      NAhh song suks



    67. 167

      na this song is terrible



    68. 168

      realllyy GOOOD:)
      love it.



    69. 169

      This was the worst piece of mediocre crap I have ever heard. I had to turn the volume down because her incessant wailing hurt my ears..

      She sucks.



    70. 170

      I LOVE THE VIDEO!!!
      def the best video of the year so far! she's soooo beautiful! it totally fits the movie!

      and why is fucking everyone just talking about the song! this is to talk about the VIDEO not the song!
      the song is good obviously NOT her best but it's ok for the soundtrack.

      LAVIGNE gettin back!!!



    71. 171

      i personally think that its really cool, i had it since it came out and i automatically loved it right away



    72. 172

      all i heard was "shrieeeeeeeeeeeek" the whole time -_-



    73. 173

      those lyrics…
      are fucking horrible. "i'm freaking out", "i'll get by, i'll survive". wow.



    74. 174

      Ahh, seriously? I don't liek Avril myself, but I actually kinda like this song..



    75. 175

      Not good but not terible eihter. I am still mad at you lavigne for your last album thoght, your like a bad Kelly Clarkson.



    76. 176

      I really liked it and Im happy tht Avril is getting bk to doing good music again



    77. 177

      Re: siberiansanguine – Oh yeah, she doesn't know how to play the piano, yet somehow she WROTE the music and lyrics to this song entirely by herself ON the piano. Of course she knows how to play. Ignorant dick.

      Re: Asia112 – You think Avril Lavigne is ugly? LOL, look at YOU. Avril's gorgeous, and someone's clearly jealous.
