Listen: Avril Lavigne shares elegant new rock cover of Adele’s Hello

Fresh from releasing an extended 20th anniversary edition of her iconic debut album Let Go, more new Avril Lavigne music has arrived courtesy of Spotify Singles.

The Canadian pop-punk has shared a new, acoustic version of the title-track to her 2022 album Love Sux, plus a really great cover of Adele’s mega ballad Hello, for the special two-song release.

"I love Adele’s song Hello and have been dying to do a cover of it," Avril says. "The Spotify Singles sessions were a fun opportunity to finally do this cover as well as reimagine my own song Love Sux as an acoustic version."

Speaking on her return to pop-punk, as well as the scene's resurgence in general, Avril said in a November interview with Zane Lowe that she felt it for "just time to rock again", and that, "I’m in a happy place in my life, and it’s fun and it reflects that."

The singer also enthused, "I'm stoked that pop-punk music, it's coming back around right now and people are falling back in love with it. And it's almost in a weird way, it feels bigger than ever right now."
