The video for Avril Lavigne’s third Goodbye Lullaby single “Wish You Were Here” features the poor Canadian singer having a good cry in an empty room while lamenting, “Damn, damn, damn, what I’d do to have you here, here, here.” And what is it with this trend of the ladies of pop setting things on fire lately? First Skylar Grey immolates herself in the video for “Invisible,” and now Avril’s getting all pyro with a flower in her new clip. Watch the sob fest below.
Last night, before taking the stage in Turin, Italy, Avril tweeted, “My music video for ‘Wish You Were Here’ is coming out tomorrow (and the tears are real… no onions!!)”
There’s not really much to the Marc Webb-directed clip for the Max Martin/Shellback-co-produced “Wish You Were Here” — just Avril in a room, looking sad, lighting flora on fire and dunking her head underwater in a bathtub. But it all works given that the mournful song itself packs a strong emotional punch.
Overall, this is a nice way to end the Goodbye Lullaby era.
Are you feeling Avril’s emotional display in “Wish You Were Here”? Let us know below.

Avril Lavigne will always be a bitch and a loser, and I also agree this music video sucks balls because all she does is cry in it after she burnt a flower and before she soaked in a bathtub..
AVRIL LAVIGNE IS A BITCH AND THIS MUSIC VIDEO SUCKS BIG TIME!!!
YA’LL SUCK ASSS, it’s an awesome song, ya’ll just jealous cuz she’s pretty, and rich, and does have a bad-ass attitude!!
DO ANY OF YOU CRY??????
I THINK I AM CRYING NOW….because she’s so pretty, and a wonderful singer, i know i can’t sing like that.
AVRIL LAVIGNE DOSN’T LOOK PRETTY AT ALL, SHE LOOKS SO UGLY AND THIS MUSIC VIDEO LOOKS SO BORING AND PATHETIC!!!
Avril Lavigne is already 27 years-old and up to now all of the lyrics to all of her songs still sound so childish and so stupid. She needs to learn to move on and get on with her life because crying, “DAMN, DAMN, DAMN” in her music video looks and sounds so stupid. She is so scared to move on because she is so scared that she will lose all of her fans out there by stop listening to her music and watching her music videos. I always hated her music, music videos, and makeup. I don’t care if she is really crying because she is just a whore who is seeking for some attention and she is also a racist when it comes to black people.
Avril Lavigne’s, “Wish You Were Here” music video is nothing but pure crap with all of that fake crying that she did.
I was starting to enjoy this music video until Avril Lavigne started crying in it. She is such a baby and I’m not going to listen to her music and I’m not going to watch any of her music videos anymore.
Avril Lavigne’s, “Wish You Were Here” music videos sucks balls. She is an ugly whore and a stuck up bitch who sings and writes crappy music.
DAMN, DAMN, DAMN AVRIL LAVIGNE LOOKS SO DAMN UGLY IN THIS CRAPPY MUSIC VIDEO BECAUSE HER DAMN MAKEUP WAS SMEARING DOWN HER UGLY FACE WHILE SHE WAS BEING SO DRAMATIC ABOUT MISSING HER EX-HUSBAND, DERYCK WHIBLEY!!!
AVRIL LAVIGNE IS A BITCH AND AN IDIOT, AND THIS MUSIC VIDEO SUCKS ASS!!!
AVRIL LAVIGNE LOOKS SO UGLY WHEN SHE CRIES AND THIS MUSIC VIDEO IS BORING AND SO PATHETIC!!!
Avril Lavigne has got to be the most biggest drama queen and the most biggest poser in the music industry and this music video sucks balls.
in my opinion this video is awesome .. hey guys look ,
if this video is really stupid you wont waste your time leaving your ‘long” comment in here .and if you really hate avril , y watch the video in the first place ?? be real guyz u like her songs but you hate her cuz shes being herself .. kailan pa naging masama ang mag paka totoo ??
Nobody in here cares about your opinion about Avril Lavigne’s, “Wish You Were Here” music video because we are all entitled to our own opinion. We don’t hate her because she’s just being herself, we hate her because she is such a bitch and an attention whore who cries just to get some sympathy from all of her loser fans like you. You have your own opinion about her and her music and we have about own opinion about her and her music as well, so shut your Filpino mouth up and leave us alone because we weren’t ever talking to you.
SHUT THE HELL UP YOU UGLY BITCH, NOBODY WANTS TO SEE YOU CRY IN YOUR MUSIC VIDEOS. YOU ARE SUCH AN ATTENTION WHORE WHO NEEDS TO DO THE WORLD A FAVOR AND DROP DEAD. YOUR MUSIC SUCKS ASS AND I HOPE THAT YOUR, “GOODBYE LULLABY” ALBUM FLOPS!!!
I can’t stand this bitch and I can’t stand this music video. Pink Floyd’s, “Wish You Were Here” sounds a lot better than this garbage.
It’s one thing to write a reporting piece, another to write an opinion piece. This appears to be an opinion piece disguised as a reporting when you wrote “Dr. Dahlan have been able to appreciate the deeper political import and avant-garde nature of the resignations.” I, for one, disagree with his view and your opinion.
Avril Lavigne’s “Goodbye Lullaby” album should be nominated as one of the worst Pop albums of 2011 because she cried in her “Wish You Were Here” music video, and that just proves that she is just seeking for some attention.
Jeez! The girl has a talent for looking adorable. At least give her that! I can see a few people being annoyed with the tears, but it’s the most beautiful thing about the video, and it got me fascinated. I guess pretty girls crying does something to a male brain.
Is everyone serious? Look, I’m not really a fan of Avril Lavigne but I think this song is really cool. It’s the basic meaning that a love song is about when someone’s hurt, nothing more. I understand the opinions about the video, because it’s very simple, but the song doesn’t need an elaborate video, simple basic video for a simple basic song. I don’t really care if she’s a bitch or a drama queen or just wants some attention, although I respect everyone’s opinion, I think the song rocks and the video is perfect for it. Oh, and the tears were a very nice touch, added more feeling to the lyrics.
i hate every one who comments to avril that’s she’s a bitch, a drama queen and etc. she only expresses her own feelings who comments negative to her you are a bitch all negative words!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM A FAN OF AVRIL LAVIGNE
YOUR A STUPID TO!!!!
Avril Lavigne needs to do the world a really big favor and drop dead because she is a bitch who craves for a lot of attention by crying in her, “Wish You Were Here” music video. She looks so ugly when she cries because her heavy eyeliner and mascara smears. Waking up in her bra and underwear in her, “What The Hell” music video doesn’t make her hardcore at all like she claims she is. AVRIL LAVIGNE IS A BITCH!!!
I didn’t know that crying in a music video would make Avril Lavigne so Punk/Rock, I agree that she is an attention whore who thinks that she is so hardcore.
Congrats! Can’t wait for the recap (nudge, nudge).
The only reason why Avril Lavigne was crying in her, “Wish You Were Here” music video was because she is nothing but an attention seeking whore who always craves for a lot of attention from the whole world. She isn’t a “Rock chick” or a “Skater chick” who sings and writes Rock music like she claims she is.
Avril Lavigne is a stuck up girl who wants to cry in her “Wish You Were Here” music video because not only because she is seeking for a lot of attention from the whole world, also because she wants to make a lot of money. I’m so glad that she isn’t my daughter because if she was, I would give her something to cry about by getting out my black studded belt that I got at Hot Topic and beat the crap out of her with it because she deserves it. She is also a stupid girl.
Avril Lavigne looks very ugly when she cries and she looks ugly wearing glasses too!
CRYBABY AVRIL, STICK YOUR EYELINER UP YOUR ASS!!!
AVRIL LAVIGNE IS A DRAMA QUEEN AND AN ATTENTION WHORE WHO ALWAYS LIKES TO FAKE IT!!!
Wow, talk about being tough and being strong. Avril Lavigne is always faking it because she is begging for attention by crying in her “Wish You Were Here” music video and it shows that she isn’t a “tough chick” at all like she claims she is. She is just an annoying poser who doesn’t know how to play the guitar and skateboard.
Avril Lavigne said that she doesn’t want anymore drama after she called Lindsay Lohan a fake and a loser to her face for no reason, but her “Wish You Were Here” music video is so dramatic and so is she. She looks so ugly when she cries ans she looks so ugly with glasses on. She is also a stuck up bitch.
Avril Lavigne is fake and so are those tears in her, “Wish You Were Here” music video. I can’t stand her and I also can’t stand her music.
AVRIL LAVIGNE SUCKS AND SO DOES HER MUSIC!!!
I don’t like Avril Lavigne and I don’t like listening to her music at all because she is full of drama and so is her music.
I could never see what people saw in this person. To me… she looks like a vampire and when she talks for real… she sounds like a total twit.
Avril Lavigne is nothing but an attention whore who looks ugly when she wears glasses and when she cries in her, “Wish You Were Here” music video.
I love Avril. And on page one, why are most of the comments hate comments? It looks to me that some of you people have nothing better to do. On one page there are comments 1-3 minutes after each one, and even though different names are used, I think it’s the same person. Anyways, don’t you people have better stuff to do than put this girl down? THERE’S A BIG WORLD OUT THERE. EXCITING THINGS HAPPEN EVERYDAY. GO EXPLORE.
