Two of pop-punk’s biggest names have just unveiled their musical team-up. Avril Lavigne and YungBlud join forces on the emo-tastic new tune, ‘I’m A Mess’.
The angsty, acoustic guitar fuelled ballad about missing a lost love was co-written by the pair alongside pop-punk power producers Travis Barker and John Feldmann.

The song is primarily Lavigne’s, her first single since releasing her seventh album Love Sux back in February. It comes with a Sid and Nancy-style music video, directed by P Tracy and filmed on location in both London and Los Angeles.
The pair began teasing the collab on socials a few days ago, sending fans into meltdown. As Yungblud put it, “The song we’re about to drop is full on lookin out the window of your parents car pretendin you’re in a music video vibes…” They also posted a video of Yungblud seemingly chopping Lavigne’s hair off:

‘I’m a Mess’ is Lavigne and Yungblud’s first studio single together, but it’s not the first time the duo have collaborated. Last year, they teamed up for a live performance of Lavigne’s ballad ‘I’m With You’.
