The Official P!nk thread

explodingbird · #1 26th November 2006, 04:11 AM

Yes, P!nk and not Pink. Don't ask me why her name is spelled like that - I have no clue.

Anyway! She debuted as an R&B artist around 2000, 2001, known back then for - of course - her pink hair. There You Go, You Make Me Sick, and ID; Peace B - er, sorry, Most Girls - were her known hits around then. Then she flipped around to become a rock chick with pop and R&B leanings, giving us Get the Party Started, Don't Let Me Get Me, Just Like A Pill, Family Portrait, Feel Good Time, Trouble, and God Is A DJ. Recently, she released her fourth album, I'm Not Dead, with the moderately successful Top 20 hit Stupid Girls. Subsequent singles Who Knew and U + Ur Hand failed to chart in the U.S. but found success elsewhere.

P!nk is known for her fiesty attitude, biting lyrics, and raspy, powerful voice.

(And her hair. Sometimes.)

I own I'm Not Dead and it's one damn good album. There are a few songs that aren't so wonderful, but for the most part, it's gold. My favorites are Stupid Girls, Who Knew, Long Way to Happy, Dear Mr. President, and U + Ur Hand. I love her older stuff too. Most Girls was a great song, Mizzundazstood (however you spell it) was a good change, with more poppy tunes, but I probably like Try This the least. The singles just weren't very strong on that one. Overall though, I think she's a brilliant artist and I hope her success continues for years to come.

Stupid Girls! Stupid Girls! ;D

I love P!nk, but only got into her because of my mother's addiction to Get The Party Started. I have to say that I'm Not Dead is her best album yet. (Although I've never heard her first one) I love every song on that album, whereas the Mizzunderstood songs got old relatively fast, and I didn't like most of the songs on Try This to begin with. (Except God Is a DJ...yes....)

Go P!nk!

I liked her song just like a pill, but other than that I think she's not that good. Her songs have turned really annoying lately and I can't stand them . =P

On a different note.. When she had a concert here there were a really large number of stereotype looking lesbians attending, is she considered to have a lot of such fans all over? I was quite surprised.

Well she is Pro-Gay Rights. I know that, as a gay fan myself, the line, "What kind of father would hate his own daughter if she were gay?", from "Dear Mr. President" was particulary appealing.

P!nk herself had a girlfriend at 13 who dumped her for her brother. I remember her saying that in an interview.

PS, She does look and act like a stereotypical lez.

U + Ur Hand is the only song I like

Get the party started and stupid girls rock!

Dawnie · #12 31st December 2006, 07:18 PM

I love P!nk, she is great, mixing rock with pop and RnB. I love stupid girls and respect and do what you do she is very inspiring and her lyrics are amazing.

Amazing woman, been a fan since her debut and finally got to meet her in December

Weslicious · #14 7th February 2007, 07:38 PM

I'm amazed she isn't big in the U.S. Like Anastacia aswell. Both huge in Europe but not so much in their homeland.

Try This is an amazing album. I saw her 'I'm Not Dead tour' and really enjoyed myself. Great artist.

It really is a shame she isnt as big in the US as everywhere else in the world!

I'd say that she's pretty well-known here in the US. If you ask anyone, they would probably AT LEAST know There You Go, Most Girls, Get the Party Started, God Is a DJ, and Stupid Girls. I was especially surprised when I was at a party and U + Ur Hand came on because everyone knew the words. I'd say she's pretty famous here.
