There she began working on her debut album Let Go collaborating with a host of prime songwriters and producers For six months the label set up Lavigne with two cowriters who worked with her upon Aristas instructions Reid expected Lavigne to record folk songs because she auditioned to them in a balladic new country type However the collective failed to click with a girl whod just discovered guitarbased rock For a year nothing was working for Lavigne and was on the verge of getting dropped off Arista The management pitched her songs written by other songwriters but she declined insisting she wanted to write songs herself Lavigne relocated to Los Angeles where she collaborated with songwriterproducer who gave her ample creative control in the writing process Lavigne and Magness wrote Losing Grip and Unwanted songs that she deemed reflective of her vision for the entire album However Arista was not thrilled with the heavyguitar laden songs that Lavigne was writing prompting the label to look for other producers to match their demands Two years since she signed the deal Lavigne came to the attention of the threepiece production team Arista could not find the right direction for Lavigne so the teams manager Sandy Roberton suggested that they work together According to member Lauren Christy they had been listening to Lavignes early songs and felt they contained a Faith Hill kind of vibe As soon as they saw Lavigne coming into their studio The Matrix felt that her musical direction was incongruous to her image and attitude After talking to Lavigne for an hour the singer said she wanted songs with punk rock inclinations They told her to come back the following day and in the afternoon during that day they wrote a song that evolved into Complicated and another song called Falling Down They played it to Lavigne when she came back the following day inspiring her what path she should take When Josh Sarubin the AR executive who signed Lavigne to the imprint heard the song he knew it was right for her Lavigne presented the song to Reid who agreed the musical direction Lavigne and The Matrix were taking and set Complicated as the albums 編曲與歌詞 Composed in the key of F major Complicated is a song about how people can feign or pretend in front of others Lavigne said about the song People sometimes bother me how theyre not real and how theyre just like putting on a face and being twofaced Lavigne stated that she experienced this with both boyfriends and female friends 音樂錄影帶 The video directed by starts with Lavigne asking her bandmates if they want to crash the mall They respond with enthusiasm and skateboard there The video features Lavigne and the band harassing shoppers and employees generally causing havoc around the mall for example Lavigne watches her bandmates try on humorous clothing which is fittingly shown as Lavigne sings the line You come over unannounced dressed up like youre something else This is intercut with footage of
