Singles
"Complicated" was the first single from the album. Its release had a major impact on Lavigne's career, and significantly increased sales of the album. It peaked at number two on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, number three on the UK chart, and number one in Canada. The single itself was certified double platinum in 2004. "Complicated" remains Lavigne's most successful song to date.
"Sk8er Boi" was second single, with a punkier edge. The song climbed to the top of the charts all around the world, but only peaked at number ten on the Hot 100. Nonetheless, it remains one of Lavigne's biggest songs to date. After the upbeat songs "Complicated" and "Sk8er Boi" had their runs globally, Lavigne decided to release a ballad from her album. "I'm with You" performed better than "Sk8er Boi", peaking at number four on the Billboard Hot 100, number seven in the UK, and number one in over ten other countries.
The alternative rock-influenced "Losing Grip" was the fourth single, and was Lavigne's weakest to date. It barely gained any airplay or video play in the U.S., peaking at number sixty-four on the Billboard Hot 100, more than fifty spots lower than its three predecessors. The song did make the top ten some places in the world, and even number one in Canada, but otherwise its release was unsuccessful. "Mobile" was the fifth single in Australia, and was released as a radio-only track. It was later used in the 2004 film Wimbledon with Kirsten Dunst.
All four of Avril's singles earned Grammy nominations though none have garnered her an award.[1]
