Luis Limo Dávila well no, as much as she deserves it, she wont get it. Just like Kesha was snubbed with « Praying » they will hand the award to some talentless rapper like Drake or someone
Of course she deserves it: she deserves hundred of Grammies for her whole career ! But, unfortunately, the Grammy will be given to another so-called artist we can see at this ceremony every year... This is pretty disgusting tbh !
I keep coming back to this song. It’s such an incredible return after facing a toxic illness. The fact she gives God the Glory for all of it. It never fails to give me goosebumps
Somewhere on a christian radio station they are playing this song, because it poped up on Christian Airplay Billboard Charts this week, so I guess she is getting support of this song?
Yea something is so weird about that haha... she dont look as she did awhile ago and now all of a sudden she looks like the old avril from the face. So weird...🤔 ruclips.net/video/zPzfDp-Ul24/видео.html
Yes ! According to a vocal coach she knew where to release the power and to hold back, she knew the notes and keys, she knew all music genres. For me, maybe because of her ability to play instruments right ?
Because she's crying out to The God. Secular record labels don't have the guts to promote it like they should because, God forbid, someone might get offended or something.
Iron man Sorry but not everyone believes in god, and record labels and radio companies don’t want to alienate a bunch of potential customers/listeners by spraying out Christian hymns. It’s just how the world is. Religion is too touchy a subject to be mainstream. Countless wars have been fought over it. It surely has the power to destroy a company.
Those Rejects though we all wanted her to go back to those tomboy days, respect who she is now, she is a woman, and she’s gonna fuck our brains inside out with those vibes
Avril is iconic, legendary. This is pure talent. No need to perform in a uber fancy stage and with super fancy outfit. No need to do shit things to be noticed. Avril never cease to give us real art. Her talent, presence, and attitude make her shine brighter. I love her since 2002, Let Go. ❤
I'm a 33 year old guy and I'm not afraid to admit that I love Avril Lavigne. She blew up when I was in Jr High in the early 2000's so it's nostalgic for cats my age as well as great music...All these years later still killin it.
i don't get how some people still harass her with "bring the old avril back" when she's clearly matured, vocals even more consistent and on point, and overall just better. punk avril was truly iconic but some of y'all should not just disregard this amazing, a continuous working progress avril lavigne bc of nostalgia. love both, she's still ungodly serving us with every bit of her talent and being
Most people just found it really strange how she changed a lot from her 2nd to 3rd album, both in the looks and sound department. There's a short MTV documentary that portraits the whole change REALLY well, especially with her interviews across the years. But we got used to it, and only silly people expect her to put out music like the one she had on her debut album, hehe. She's doing fine now.
I love the old and the new Avril. Sk8er boy was my preteen anthem, but this amazing too. I love the vocal control she has now--judging by the way sounds you would think this was take 100 in a studio.
I will conclude that Grammy 2019 is a non-prestigious trash event if this lady will not be acknowledged nor nominated. Give her a chance people. Do not screw up this time Grammy
I actually not believe in grammy trash, Kendrick lamar won politzar, Jay Z got one of the highest selling album previous year yet bruno won the best album.
@@wehttamaloveschicken7916 Honestly, are you so insecurr about their fame that you have to mention them? This is about Avril. I am a huge Demi fan myself but I would be really stupid if I commented everything here with "but Demi is awesome too" and "yeah watch Shania Twains performance she can sing too"
Shes not underrated. Its just shes fighting with her disease. Im her fan ever since i was young and up to now. 15 years ago i always sing her song in karaoke. Hehehe
Isa C - she's def not underrated. she's taken time off because she's been sick but she was popular from at least 2000-2014 then had to stop music bc of her lyme disease.
She was actually at the peak of her fame (especially during the 2000's) til 2012 then she took a long break ....then new people arrived & she just got shunned but she'll get back stronger I believe in her & her music
Avril Lavigne can beat her own studio recording live! Chuck Norris stuff. Jokes aside, this is amazing. Her voice is so beutiful. This is music! So happy that my teenage love is ok and back. We missed you, Avril! We needed you! Music industry needed you! I send you all my love from Serbia!
Avril said she was working on 20+ songs for her next album and she said she'll have a lot of songs in this style and she'll also have some rock style songs so don't worry she'll please everyone , can't wait for it :) (btw those asking for proof just search her live stream from november 2017 , and her interview earlier this year )
No, wait. Let's get that stratight. Back in November 2017, there was a Facebook Live where she said she had recorded 20+ songs, no one ever mentioned them all ending up on the album. She NEVER said that there will be more songs like this on the album neither "a lot". (Or give me a source.) There was an IG story waaaay back, I don't even remember when, where she said that she was working on punk rock songs to rock out on stage to.
In 2002 in found Avril. Her songs often helped me when storms came to my life. Than came a big storm to her life. I prayed sometimes for her. And God keeped her head above water. I`m so happy she is back. Yes, and she is matured and stronger than before! Thank you God! :)
I hate to break it to you but shes using live auto tune. She also avoiding riffs in this performance because of the autune distortions that can be obvious.
This is the kind of performance we need more nowadays in music industry. Listen to the vocal and tye back-up team. This is flawless , fresh and energetic. We need more of this not a syntetic sound.
I like how human this video comes across. She adjusts her sound control box behind her mid song and later looks down to the song sheet. Also Avril is dressed casual and that's very cool. The human side is so important and something we all need to see sometimes. Very good stuff. Keep up the good work Avril.
@@jessbenton3152 Yes I think Avril Lavigne comes from her own mold. If you watch documentrys about her from the early 2000s she was kind of the artist for the common people. I am glad to see Avril is getting back to the basics of what made her music so popular in the beginning and that is powerful honest real life songs, sung by a brave, and upfront person that regular people can identify with. At least, that's what I think😉😊. Thanks for your comment Lauren B.
You too huh? 1:32 - when she sings the chorus in harmony with the background vocals... total chill spike. I've followed Avril since I heard 'I'm with you' 16 years ago. This song is so powerful and deep. It really is an achievement for her.
It really shows that she was classically trained as a child and teenager. Just the longevity and quality of her live vocals vs studio. She has flawless technique and she’s been able to maintain her tone and range over a pretty amazing career so far. Congrats on making another amazing album Avril!
Now days there is no studio and live almost every singer now days travels with $100k+ in studio equipment that stuff you see off the side of the stage flashing is not guitar or amp stuff and the guy in the back on the sound board is not just working the lights and volume they are working the studio items to make them sound allmost the same as a cd live. The mishaps at things like grammys and vma's show that when the singers are sounding like them self and they say it is a mic mishap or somthing in those line. Real singers that sound the same are like cheap trick,Alice Cooper and others from a time when that stuff was not out there you will find sound same on a LP and a stage are the same even now. Dont get me wrong I love Avril but saying she is like an artist from the past on and off stage with out all the equipment is not correct.
@@x2xtreme360 yeah in younger years she had that natural 3-dimensional tone where she could just speak into the mic and sound great. Her voice isn't exactly 3-dimensional anymore but her technique has certainly improved with age
As someone who has Lyme, this song resonated with me so much. I am a musician and a singer. The first time I heard this I started crying and then after I listened to an interview of talking about how Head Above Water was inspired by her battle with Lyme I completely broke down. The song touched me because I could relate to crying out God because I felt like it would never end and and I would never be able to sing again. I was so scared. I was 15 when I was diagnosed in 2017 and that was one of the darkest moments of my life. The treatment made me extremely sick and my body didn’t handle it well, on top of the Lyme, most days I though I was going to die and could hardly get out of bed. It was my relationship with Jesus, music, and my family and friends who got me through. I can only imagine how hard this song was to write. Singing raw lyrics like those is extremely hard on an emotional level. I commend you for your bravery, for being and inspiration, and showing others to keep pushing forward no matter what stands in there way. Avril you are an incredible vocalist and an even more incredible human being!
"I commend you for your bravery, for being and inspiration, and showing others to keep pushing forward no matter what stands in there way. Avril you are an incredible vocalist and an even more incredible human being"
I'm glad that you're here today to tell your story. Keep the faith, whichever that may be for you. It's amazing how music easily translates our feelings into sounds and words and how relatable people's situations can be. Chin up, always. Hugs from a stranger on the interwebs.
Lucy P beautiful words. I have a terminal Disease an i understand that life goes on, and dosent look at its people as Mich as it should, but with posts like this i hope we can all win together!!! ❤️🤗
Yesterday I sang this song for my deceased mother. I started to really break while singing for her with this song. "Mom, keep my head head above water, don't let me drown drown drown, don't let me drown drown drown"
Jeff The Shrimp what I meant is that the talent that Avril has is beyond amazing and this song is so beautiful and even more the way she performs it. That’s why she deserved a Grammy... hope ppl appreciate her songs and voice. I know what a song needs to have for win a Grammy tho, just saying that this deserves it and beyond.
Jeff The Shrimp and also, I’m saying DESERVES as a comment to Avril’s talent and to her song. It’s just an opinion, if you don’t like her that’s not my problem but you’re and id1ot if you don’t. No hurt feeling tho.
When I first heard this song I had to hold back my emotions because I was at a course. I came home, rolled up and went for a smoke with my headphones. When the bridge and final chorus came in I broke down in tears, just the way she pleads ‘don’t let me drown’ like please don’t let me die just yet and that hit me so hard. This song can also be a reference to depression as well as her fight for Lyme disease so Thankyou Avril, this song made me feel much stronger!
I can relate...I’ve been dealing with health problems since August of feeling a lot of pressure on my head sometimes and being woozy a lot. I’ve been to like 4 doctors and I’m still not 100% sure what it is. Sometimes I hear this song and it just makes me want to breakdown...I hate what I’ve been going through and sometimes I just don’t know how to deal with it. This song calms me a lot...and I always pray to God to release me from this hell I’m going through.
I like this more than the music video. It has that MTV unplugged feel. Makes it more intimate and raw as opposed to watching her in front of the green screen. Killer vocals. Go Canada.
Ya'll sound like old farts when you say shit like this lmfao. All I hear is, "I used to be with 'it." but then they changed what 'it' was... now what i'm with isn't 'it.' and what's 'it' is seems weird and scary to me. it'll happen to youuuuuu!!"
Now that was a flawless and powerful performance. I literally got goosebumps. It’s so great to hear her voice again and it's amazing that this is just her lead single from the album which has got me even more excited to hear the rest of her album. We just covered “Head Above Water” on my channel, hope you will watch it. Avril is back and stronger than ever and the emotion you hear in her voice during this performance is breathtaking. I'm blown away.
tenorbuds I love how you slipped a little self-promo in there, but you actually wrote a very sweet comment about the video around it. Very tastefully done, I will definitely check out your cover.
This. This is real talent. She sounds incredible live..... why? Because she isn’t a fabricated act. She can sing and write. We need more of this in the industry. Not these bs artists who are a size 0, have no talent at all........ and will do whatever the label wants.
0% autotune, 100% pure talent!
A lot of live performances have it and belueve me this performance has a bit of it

If it does win a Grammy, it would go to the songwriters who are Stephan Moccio and Travis Clark.
That song is life but... She has to achieve global success to win a grammy. That song couldn't hit the charts. Sorry she won't. :(

For sure bro
Her voice is so underrated, it's much more special than people realise

She sounded almost perfect, and the message is so powerful. It's not fair that this song hasn't blown up already.

Pilar Martinez same
Mavi Rose trueeee😍
OMG!!! Her voice sound better than audio!! Her voice is so amazing!!!
I had never seen this before. She killed it. That was beautiful.
The live vocals, it's rare that singers sound the same when they sing live nowadays
She sounds better than the recording I think, this has a lot more feeling. Glad she's back better than ever!
She actually sounds BETTER!!!!
For now days? The first is ariana grande
Lady Gaga pls
I hate to break it to you but shes using live auto tune. She also avoiding riffs in this performance because of the autune distortions that can be obvious.
Avril is a vampire, this explain everything, cause i'm sixteen AND SHE LOOK YOUNGER THAN ME
I would let she bite me...
@@stifmaister1992 her*
Lmao same, I'm 15 but i look older than her
Cole Sprouse's Wife YES, the life is so unfair
Not really. 😂
Her voice is still so beautiful!
She deserves more recognition!
This is the kind of performance we need more nowadays in music industry. Listen to the vocal and tye back-up team. This is flawless , fresh and energetic. We need more of this not a syntetic sound.
I like how human this video comes across. She adjusts her sound control box behind her mid song and later looks down to the song sheet. Also Avril is dressed casual and that's very cool. The human side is so important and something we all need to see sometimes. Very good stuff. Keep up the good work Avril.
Caleb Gilbert I like this comment. And it’s true, it feels more personal seeing her dress casual and even with the song sheet. Loved it
@@jessbenton3152 Yes I think Avril Lavigne comes from her own mold. If you watch documentrys about her from the early 2000s she was kind of the artist for the common people. I am glad to see Avril is getting back to the basics of what made her music so popular in the beginning and that is powerful honest real life songs, sung by a brave, and upfront person that regular people can identify with. At least, that's what I think😉😊. Thanks for your comment Lauren B.
I get chills from this performance!!
You too huh? 1:32 - when she sings the chorus in harmony with the background vocals... total chill spike.
I've followed Avril since I heard 'I'm with you' 16 years ago. This song is so powerful and deep. It really is an achievement for her.
You don't need to be subbed to a channel to enjoy the content lol!!
@Justin Justin is troll
@@SuzyLuOfficial yess 💯 Agree
@@SuzyLuOfficial your here too that's awesome!!
It really shows that she was classically trained as a child and teenager. Just the longevity and quality of her live vocals vs studio. She has flawless technique and she’s been able to maintain her tone and range over a pretty amazing career so far. Congrats on making another amazing album Avril!
She was most likely trained as an adult. She couldn't sing like this back in the days of under my skin and let go
Now days there is no studio and live almost every singer now days travels with $100k+ in studio equipment that stuff you see off the side of the stage flashing is not guitar or amp stuff and the guy in the back on the sound board is not just working the lights and volume they are working the studio items to make them sound allmost the same as a cd live. The mishaps at things like grammys and vma's show that when the singers are sounding like them self and they say it is a mic mishap or somthing in those line. Real singers that sound the same are like cheap trick,Alice Cooper and others from a time when that stuff was not out there you will find sound same on a LP and a stage are the same even now. Dont get me wrong I love Avril but saying she is like an artist from the past on and off stage with out all the equipment is not correct.
It helps that she alternates with the real AL! Way to perform, MV!
Yup.. almost 20 years now
@@x2xtreme360 yeah in younger years she had that natural 3-dimensional tone where she could just speak into the mic and sound great. Her voice isn't exactly 3-dimensional anymore but her technique has certainly improved with age
I hope your song hits 100M viewers soon!!! *Our Queen is back* ❤️
The angel is back!!!!
Valaki Valaki only 100 m she deserves 100 b. Views
at this rate seems like ain't gonna happen. but i am hoping for the impossible
She is so underrated 😭
As someone who has Lyme, this song resonated with me so much. I am a musician and a singer. The first time I heard this I started crying and then after I listened to an interview of talking about how Head Above Water was inspired by her battle with Lyme I completely broke down. The song touched me because I could relate to crying out God because I felt like it would never end and and I would never be able to sing again. I was so scared. I was 15 when I was diagnosed in 2017 and that was one of the darkest moments of my life. The treatment made me extremely sick and my body didn’t handle it well, on top of the Lyme, most days I though I was going to die and could hardly get out of bed. It was my relationship with Jesus, music, and my family and friends who got me through. I can only imagine how hard this song was to write. Singing raw lyrics like those is extremely hard on an emotional level. I commend you for your bravery, for being and inspiration, and showing others to keep pushing forward no matter what stands in there way. Avril you are an incredible vocalist and an even more incredible human being!

NeverKnew Masquerade So true!
I'm glad that you're here today to tell your story. Keep the faith, whichever that may be for you. It's amazing how music easily translates our feelings into sounds and words and how relatable people's situations can be. Chin up, always. Hugs from a stranger on the interwebs.
Lucy P beautiful words. I have a terminal Disease an i understand that life goes on, and dosent look at its people as Mich as it should, but with posts like this i hope we can all win together!!! ❤️🤗
marco3055 thank you so much
This shows the level of Grammys. Grammy doesn't deserve Avril. She is too much for them...
GRAMMY IS ABOUT MONEY NOT ABOUT TALENT SO GRAMMY WTF
Yesterday I sang this song for my deceased mother. I started to really break while singing for her with this song. "Mom, keep my head head above water, don't let me drown drown drown, don't let me drown drown drown"
This song deserves a Grammy for sure and Avril too
Avril doesn't need a grammy... she's so much thing
If we gonna talk about talent and awesome song, then YASSSSSS! I hope people will listen to her more.
Jeff The Shrimp what I meant is that the talent that Avril has is beyond amazing and this song is so beautiful and even more the way she performs it. That’s why she deserved a Grammy... hope ppl appreciate her songs and voice. I know what a song needs to have for win a Grammy tho, just saying that this deserves it and beyond.
Jeff The Shrimp and also, I’m saying DESERVES as a comment to Avril’s talent and to her song. It’s just an opinion, if you don’t like her that’s not my problem but you’re and id1ot if you don’t.
No hurt feeling tho.
When I first heard this song I had to hold back my emotions because I was at a course. I came home, rolled up and went for a smoke with my headphones. When the bridge and final chorus came in I broke down in tears, just the way she pleads ‘don’t let me drown’ like please don’t let me die just yet and that hit me so hard. This song can also be a reference to depression as well as her fight for Lyme disease so Thankyou Avril, this song made me feel much stronger!
Praise God! That's awesome dude :)
same thoughts. but i dont smoke ^^
Same here. This song really hits me! #KeepinTheFaith
I can relate...I’ve been dealing with health problems since August of feeling a lot of pressure on my head sometimes and being woozy a lot. I’ve been to like 4 doctors and I’m still not 100% sure what it is. Sometimes I hear this song and it just makes me want to breakdown...I hate what I’ve been going through and sometimes I just don’t know how to deal with it. This song calms me a lot...and I always pray to God to release me from this hell I’m going through.
@@tomasgarcia7499 stay the fuck strong OK mate?
Avril the most beautiful voice on earth. Reminds me of those school days.
So beautiful ❤️🥰💯
SOCORRO QUE MULHER MAIS LINDA
She put her heart and soul into this performance 😭❤️
Like she always does! 💞
Definite Grammy for Avril!!!!! This is so moving!!!!! Not too mention Powerful!!!
I think she can only get into the nominees next year,or not ? She deserves
She proved that age is just a number, she still the same Avril I've known when I was 15
Thanks God for keeping this angel around us, her voice will always be the immortal one
Her fucking voice .... is so beautiful 😍
Bella G. That’s because she’s so cute
@@danielgartin6993I have met more cute girls with a terrible singing voice than those who can actually sing.
Thank God for Avril, I'm so happy that she's back!!!
You who like Avril Lavigne watch this video, do not forget the like ;)

One of the most Beautiful and strong vocals in music. She is amazing.
I like this more than the music video. It has that MTV unplugged feel. Makes it more intimate and raw as opposed to watching her in front of the green screen. Killer vocals. Go Canada.

Its been a decade since I’ve heard REAL music And REAL singing
Meh2
Ya'll sound like old farts when you say shit like this lmfao. All I hear is, "I used to be with 'it." but then they changed what 'it' was... now what i'm with isn't 'it.' and what's 'it' is seems weird and scary to me. it'll happen to youuuuuu!!"
SelphieFairy ...so, you're saying young foolish teens can't recognize good music? Probably true. Enjoy your Selena Gomez fluff songs.
Agreed
@@SelphieFairy Because much of todays stuff is pure prefab junk. Too much auto tuning and digital tweaking.
This deserves a Grammy for sure
your best song in my point of view
Now that was a flawless and powerful performance. I literally got goosebumps. It’s so great to hear her voice again and it's amazing that this is just her lead single from the album which has got me even more excited to hear the rest of her album. We just covered “Head Above Water” on my channel, hope you will watch it. Avril is back and stronger than ever and the emotion you hear in her voice during this performance is breathtaking. I'm blown away.
I literally cried after watching her performance.
Finished your cover and it was really good. Love your harmonies.
Lol I see you guys everywhere 😂😂 such dedication
tenorbuds I love how you slipped a little self-promo in there, but you actually wrote a very sweet comment about the video around it. Very tastefully done, I will definitely check out your cover.
This. This is real talent. She sounds incredible live..... why? Because she isn’t a fabricated act. She can sing and write. We need more of this in the industry. Not these bs artists who are a size 0, have no talent at all........ and will do whatever the label wants.
I feel like Taylor Swift is a good example of a great singer and writer as well
@@perdasche taylors voice is ok. Nothing special. Her writing is very good though in my opinion.
