4.0 out of 5 stars Dual Disc Disaster?, June 11, 2005

A Kid's Review

All dual disc problems aside, might I say that I love Avril Lavigne's music. She is a great and fresh addition to today's music realm. I was at first skeptical about her first album, "Let Go," but it captured my attention and devotion, and now, "Under My Skin" has strengthened my loyalty.

Anyway, the Dual Disc was a pricey investment. The original copy of the album came out in June of 2004. I had already purchased it the day it arrived in stores. Of course, now in 2005, the Dual Disc formatted version comes out and I'm left to pay for a second copy of the exact same album. This was only because I was interested in the music videos and behind-the-scenes footage. As for the "high quality" sound, you can't tell the difference. I suppose you would be able to if it was say, an acoustic or opera performance. I thought that the original version was already produced in enhanced stereo anyway... I only wish that Dual Disc had been available last year. Nevertheless, it IS nice to have a back-up copy of the original. I also noticed some differences between the two versions. On the original, the album cover art is a clear, black/gray/white and a clear image. On the Dual Disc version, the album cover art is a more sepia/old-photograph style with a soft, blurred image. I'm not sure if this is coincidental, but maybe it will lead to something in the future.

All in all, the bonus videos and behind-the-scenes footage is a nice addition to an Avril fan's collection. It is well worth the extra $14.00 if you already have the original copy.

Always keep rockin' on...

5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Format, May 6, 2005

By	Sam Trinh (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This hybrid disc is certainly amazing in terms of flexibility. However, it is prone to scractches on both sides of the disc. The audio segment of the DVD is actually PCM. This quality does not equate to dolby digital and/or DTS surround sound. The CD layer sounds just like any other CD. Nevertheless, if you don't care about the technical specifications then I highly recommended such a wonderful album. This kind of format may become obsolete in the future anyway as they are always coming up with new,improved, and innovative ways such as a HD-DVD using blue laser. Despite all of this however, those factors do not distort the power and intensity of Avril lavigne's voice. One who enjoys her music should get this one as it contains many bonus features including popular music videos I found very intrigued. Very energized album that is highly appealing. If you have bought the original album, only get this one if you really want the videos and other extra features.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this album n the bonuses, October 10, 2005

By	Jade Sable "Kat" (Leesport, PA) - See all my reviews

I love this album as much as her first one. Avril Lavigne is a talented musician and a great songwriter. My absolute favorite song on the album is "My happy ending" she really hits the nail on the head with bad breakups and dumping a guy too chicken s*** to stand up to his friends. "I also have the habit of hitting the repeat button for "Don't tell me" "He wasn't" and "Nobody's home" The rest of her songs send strong messages about not giving into the pressure to have sex, not having to be perfect and getting the courage to stick up for yourself. If I ever had a daughter, I would be happy if she listened and dressed like Avril. Rather her than certain artists out there. This CD is a breath of fresh air from the nauseating unoriginal songs on the radio (see my scathing review on Britney n Jessica)

I was thrilled to see her music videos on the 2nd Cd. They were done really well n the whole reason I bought this dualdisc. I haven't really gotten to take a look at all the extras but when I do, I'll be back to give an update!

Conclusion: Both CD's: addicting
Britney backlash as a result of this album's popularity: priceless!
