This single is the last one for her album debut "Let Go". It contains three songs: the first is "Losing Grip", which is amazing!! This girl can rock out! It says "Why should I care/ Cause you weren't there when I was scared/ I was so alone..." This is my favourite song! Then, the live versions of "I'm With You" (this song is beautiful) and "Unwanted" (showing her "serious" side) and the video of "Losing Grip". If you are a big fan, I recommend you this single because you have to get it!

The fourth single to be released from Lavigne's multi-platinum debut 'Let Go', 'Losing Grip' is undoubtedly one of the strongest songs in her ever-growing back catalogue. A harder more aggressive exchange between a distorted drum machine and live guitars, Avril wails a strong and catchy melody telling her boy off for not paying enough attention to her.

Rowr.

This single is an Australian import, essentially the same as the European 'I'm With You' single simply exchanging the title track for 'Losing Grip' and thus the video of the track as well. The two B-sides, 'I'm With You' and 'Unwanted' live from Mexico, are the same. Great cover design (an arty photo of Avril live in concert lit up by gorgeous blood-red lighting), but unless you're a big collector you're better off opting for the Aussie tour edition of 'Let Go'. It has all the tracks on this single, including the video clip, plus loads more.

Hey, I want to say that as the 4th. single from "Let Go", this shows the "rocker" and "heavy" side of Avril, as last single "I'm With You" showed the lyrical, poetic and sensitive Avril, this one shows us the other face, Avril's side wich is she want us to know, the rocker Avril. Also the B-Sides show us how can potential can be the real live voice of Avril, I'm from México and I was that October 28th. in the Mexico City concert, she really surprised me with her voice and show all of us what she can do on stage. As in "I'm With You", these are the 2 live versions of two of the best songs of "Let Go", even I have to say i like the whole album. Anyway, I have the 4 singles and I recomend 'em. Cheer up Avril!

"Let Go" is hands-down, one of my favorite albums of all time. Comes from that, is a fun rock song called "Losing Grip". It's a little rougher from what Avril usually releases as CD singles. Yes, it's a fun, very catchy, teen-rock-somewhat-pop-but-not-really-considered-pop song.

Here's the problem with this single. Pop radio (which is where her songs are mainly played) will not play this song often, because it's too rock for pop radio.

Yes, it did get some spins on pop radio, and maybe (on some) alternative rock stations played it, but radio didn't like it, because it's too hard for pop, but it's too soft for rock.

Avril has pulled off an amzing song and I really like this song I love it and the album that it comes off "Let Go". This really is a great song.

This is by far my favorite song on the album, she rocks!!!

I would not even have given this a one but since you have to rate it to write a review well....SHE SUCKS A*S. Please dont waste your money. If you like pop then go right ahead and throw your money down the drain. But dont let her cheap facade fool you. There is nothing even remotely rock about this chick. I was so disappointed to see men giving her 4 stars for this album. I would think girls might like this BS( hell i'm a girl and i dont like it).

Her lyrics sound like they were written by a 10 year old. There is just no depth to her song. First thing you learn as a writer of any kind is write what you know about and this girl just has no idea about relationships so what is she whining about. She probably doesn't even dress herself. She is a poser who pretends to sing punk rock but believe me she doesn't. Her music is so shallow and there is just no emotion. And to think that she has somebody who co-writes her music....! Now Britney Spears sucks but at least AT LEAST she doesn't pretend to sing something else and she doesn't pretend to have any talent (which she doesnt0 unlike Lavigne who criticizes pop princesses when she is just like them. She is like Kelly Osbourne. Pop chicks pretending to be something they're not.

Avril has got to be THE worst singer out there! She can't even play guitar! I better I'M a better guitarist than her, and i'm still taking lessons! Listen to Dream Theater, Van Halen, Sepultura(old), Slayer, and Megadeth if ya wanna hear great guitar work!
