Avril Lavigne: My World is the first live album/DVD by Canadian singer-songwriter Avril Lavigne, released on November 6, 2003. The DVD consists of 16 songs that Lavigne performed on her first live performance tour, the Try to Shut Me Up Tour at HSBC Arena in Buffalo, New York. Most of the tracks are taken from her debut album, Let Go, while two of the songs are covers. It also features one B-side song. On the live CD, three songs are covers and one is a single.

Critical reception

[edit]

Holly E. Ordway from DVD Talk website commented positively on Lavigne’s performance, stating that Lavigne “moves from one song to the next with minimal fuss, focusing her concert performance on her music rather than putting on an ‘act’ in general”. The audio quality of the DVD was assessed as unsatisfyingly monaural, less immersive than Lavigne's CDs. Ordway was critical of the bonus features on the DVD, believing that they would only interest a “devoted teenage fan”.[1]
