She stays true to the ebbs and flows of the original, with simple guitar and a subdued delivery leading into the belted-out chorus and jammy guitars.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>WATCH | The audio for Lavigne&#8217;s cover of Ironic:<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not the first time Lavigne has shown her love for the enduring hit song. In 2005, she <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=E5WUJlLxfH0&amp;t=3s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">performed the song with Morissette<\/a>, during the encore of Morissette\u2019s set at the House of Blues in Los Angeles.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mile End Kicks is set in 2011, during Montreal\u2019s indie rock boom, and also features original music by local band Tops, and a live performance by Islands.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>WATCH | The official trailer for Mile End Kicks:<\/p>\n<p>Morissette is currently on a world tour, hitting Mexico and the U.S. before heading to the U.K, Ireland and the Netherlands in June and July.
