Johnny Rzeznik of Goo Goo Dolls, Avril Lavigne - Iris (Live from Fashion Rocks 2004) 

2024 anyone?

One thing about Avril Lavigne is that when she sings other people's songs, she doesn't try to sound like them. She does it as if she made the song. Love that.

This song never get old...

Incredible nostalgia here!! Can’t believe this was 17 years ago. That was such a fun era of music and a better time.

This song and Avril's "I'm With You" would actually make an epic mashup.

I didn't think that Avril Lavigne and Johnny Rzenik's voices would work so well together. I'm happy that they do.

Goo Goo Dolls are such a criminally underrated band.

There is something about this song that it never gets old

This was great but nothing will ever touch the performance in the rain on Fourth of July 2004. That was magical.

I’ve seen Johnny perform Iris with other female artists but none of them can touch the magic performed between him & Avril, imo. Perfection right here & so beautifully done.

Ok, massive respect for Avril Lavigne, she didn't try try to over sing the song. That is class!!!

when u think about it “i’m with you” and “iris” are very similar if you sing these side by side: “i’m standing on the bridge, i’m waiting in the dark” + “and i’d give up forever to touch you, cause i know that u feel me somehow” “it’s a damn cold night” + “and i don’t want the world to see me”. plus the violins in the background!

To this day one of the most beautiful songs ever!

She has a very angelic pop punk voice 🤘🤘 And she can reach high notessss

I became aware of this duet, right here, this second... love it and appreciate it.

Anyone here after watched "Deadpool & Wolverine"?

Huh... better than the Taylor Swift duet.

Like if you're still jamming to this tune, 20 years later.

The lyrics, the meaning behind the lyrics (angel + love from the soundtrack City of Angels), the music and Avril and Johnny's voice all collide to make this song a most memorable one for me. It sends tears down my face - it's that impactful.

Avril’s voice is from another planet! Incredible!

2021??

2004 seems like a lifetime ago.... but this song and performance will live on even when we are all gone. This is perfection...

I've spent some time listening to cover after cover and this rendition with Avril is easily the best I can find - what an absolute treasure.

Some of best lyrics ever written in a song:)

This should have been released officially. It's so good. I can't listen to Goo Goo Dolls version alone anymore. I always need the one with Avril.

I got goosebumps I can't believe that I've never seen this performance

I never believed that clone Avril theory because there will never be another Avril. Even Billie Eillish can't compare to her.

No bells and whistles with Avril’s voice. She belts it out straight forward. Love it. She is tiny!!!

Two legends! This was the greatest duet of its time!

I love how Avril & Evan look quite nervous at first but then johnny gives them reassurance by playing with them, like playing guitar near Evan & bumped Avril playfully. After that evan plays guitar confidently & avril's tension eases a bit.

Sometimes you forget how young Avril used to be when she came on the scene! Oh man...2004 memories!

Wish we could hear Johnnys voice clearer here, his tone sounds phenomenal. Possibly one of his best jobs on the chorus ever

*_Iris_* Goo Goo Dolls Lyrics And I'd give up forever to touch you 'Cause I know that you feel me somehow You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be And I don't want to go home right now And all I can taste is this moment And all I can breathe is your life And sooner or later it's over I just don't wanna miss you tonight And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's meant to be broken I just want you to know who I am And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming Or the moment of truth in your lies When everything feels like the movies Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's meant to be broken I just want you to know who I am And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's meant to be broken I just want you to know who I am And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's meant to be broken I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am

3000 anyone? But I am already gone😅see you on other side❤

Its been 13 long years and everytime I hear or listen to this I see my mate Danny. It was his funeral song and its the last memory I have of him.

There are no words for this beautiful duet. 💖 Avril Lavigne and Johnny Rzenik's voices work so well together. I listen to this duet over and over again.

It's like watching a big brother and little sister perform together lol 👍

Avril can’t stay in tune, WTF

2025 ? Anyone

I vividly remember watching this performance on TV. 20 years ago. Still as lovely

Johnny has the best haircut of any bandmate on planet earth.

3:45 wrong bass note 😬

A beautiful song and a wonderful performance by Avril and Johnny. We can not go back in time. But at least we have this magical moment to enjoy.💫

2030 anyone?

I wasn't familiar with Avril Lavrigne's signing and choices until now. I was in the military at the time and she seemed kind of pop. Thank you for sharing this. In my humbled opinion she has a lot of talent and heart.

Essa música já é ótima e com a voz da Avril fica melhor ainda.

damn i’ve never seen this it’s simply incredible 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍

If this isn’t part of the Great American Songbook, it should be. Timeless and beloved by millions

This song will be always one of my favourite ones...but this duet is really touching my soul ✌🙌👏👏 Love you Avril!! 💖

Deadpool and Wolverine 💛♥️ LG GGD & AL

My dad used to love listening to this song and Foo Fighters by the Goo Goo Dolls. My dad used to love listening to Complicated, Mobile and Things I'll Never Say by Avril Lavigne. My dad and I used to be extremely close. We aren't as close anymore but that is alright. I have gotten used to that fact.

Great job Avril, this guy is genuine music man, long live this song.

We all know who you are Avril! ☆

Deadpool 2024

This is like if My Chemical Romance and Kurt Cobain came together

Glad avril Lavigne was around during my teens… grew up listening to her music and still growing up with her. I hope she never stops singing

What an amazing voice Avril has. Loved her since my childhood, shes never aged physically and still sounds as amazing as this 🙏 ❤️

Uma das melhores versões dessa música 🇧🇷

This versión should be in Spotify

Avril singing Iris

They both look like a brother and his younger sister on the stage

Wow, she did this song well. I was obsessed with this song back in the day lol

Her vocal are incredibely strong, I loved it

Way better duet than with Taylor Swift. I think Avril’s and John’s voices work better together.

Avril's voice is so beautiful that it matches magically with the Iris. Great collaboration.

August 24🎉

I am so very grateful that this was the music that was coming out in my impressionable years.

Still listening March 2023

Alguém em 2021?

My two favorite iconic groups that have shaped so much about my life are on stage together!?!?

Never seen this, they are awesome together. 😎👍

Nice photography great match up ❤😊

Adoro essa performance

And I'd give up forever to touch you 'Cause I know that you feel me somehow You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be And I don't want to go home right now And all I can taste is this moment And all I can breathe is your life And sooner or later, it's over I just don't wanna miss you tonight And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming Or the moment of truth in your lies When everything feels like the movies Yeah, you bleed just to know, you're alive And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am

Eu ouvia essa música ainda era uma menina e essas músicas fizeram parte da minha vida são bandas excelentes amoo demais cantam demais linda canção infelizemente não existe mais músicas boas como antes

Ladies and Gentlemen, before Taylor Swift there's Avril Lavigne.

Avril - Im With You Goo Goo dolls - Iris ❤

Listening 2024?

Who else had goosebumps listening to this?

20 anos atrás caraca

Avril is shockingly beautiful. These two together, on this song, hit me. Love the Goo Goo Dolls!!!

Little did she know that this would be her first dance song with her (now ex) husband at her wedding two years later ❤️

This song is so nostalgic. It's always on my playlist. ❤️

THIS SONG WILL BEAT LONGER THAN MY HEART EVER WILL!! 🙌🏻

This “Iris” song sang by Avril reminds me of her song “I’m With U.” Both songs have similar vibes.

Sheesh avril really just doesn’t age

I love you avril Lavigne 💚

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENED

É a coisa mais bela que eu já ouvi, meu deus eu tô num êxtase aqui que pqp mano

It’s weird. Like Reznik is the legend of this song, but Avril could have easily been the original. But when they sing it together it doesn’t mix. Still live the rendition though!

Amo este tema en todas sus versiones 😍😍😍

não creio que ela cantou essa música. ficou LINDOOOOOOOO

Great song already and Avril puts the icing on the cake.

i listened to this song for the 1st time a month ago, while i was at a coffee shop... i love the lyrics sm and appreciate all the versions, everything about this song is so beautiful and relatable

September 2024

Sh*t I'm old... 2004.... Avril was on the scene and this song was atleast 6 years old at the time... I was in college then...

This song will remain evergreen forever and when qe can hear this by avril makes it more special avril is❤️❤️😘😘😘

Incredible song! I can't believe that till this day it makes me so sad and nostalgic at the same time!!! 😭 Great performance both of them

Beautiful Avril sings and perform so great 👍🏼
