Description

Away from the record studio, Pink's life was also evolving. She married her boyfriend, Motocross star Carey Hart, in Costa Rica, after proposing to him during one of his races. But like her parents' marriage, Pink's union with Hart proved to be tumultuous, and just two years after they exchanged vows, the couple separated. Her fifth album, Funhouse (2008), drew from the raw emotions she was feeling from her separation. It also proved to be a huge commercial success, debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard chart, and inspiring a wild, worldwide tour that featured the artist performing blindfolded and—in some instances—singing upside-down on a trapeze.

I didn’t know much about Pink (Alecia Beth Moore), but I love biographies, so I was intrigued when I saw this ARC on NetGalley. I’m so glad I requested and was approved for an early review. This book is divided into chapters to cover specifics about her life based on her albums. The overall structure seems to be chronological, yet there are discrepancies that make reading more confusing. There are random facts thrown in that are related to the individuals being discussed, yet don’t fit chronologically. There is also more repetition of information than I would have cared for. Some of the same details about her life are shared in more than one chapter.

The song was released in October 2010. It was praised by critics who said it was a party anthem. It was successful commercially as well. It reached the Top 10 in several countries, including the United States. There it became Pink's second solo number one hit, following " So What," and her third overall.

Despite the newfound fame and success, Pink, who was never one to hide her true emotions, was far from satisfied. Fearful of being lumped in with the glut of pretty singers who dominated the market, Pink set her sights on a deeper, edgier sound. "There was no blood, sweat or tears on my first album," she told London's Daily Mail. "And no emotional exchange between me and the musicians. R&B is on a conveyor belt." 'Lady Marmalade,' 'M!ssundaztood'

Lyrically, “Raise Your Glass” takes delight in being “loud and nitty-gritty dirty little freaks,” but it never gets much more specific than that. Pink sings about being wrong in the right way, being an underdog, but she doesn’t say what that means. In the video, things become a little more clear. A lot of the clip is pure silliness — Pink pretending to be a bull who defeats a matador, Pink sumo-wrestling with the Monopoly guy. But Pink also poses as Rosie The Riveter, a clear pop-feminist statement, and director Dave Meyers shows Pink playing guitar at a gay wedding. The shot of two guys kissing is immediately followed by Pink dressing up as a cholo for the “call me up if you a gangsta” line, which probably wasn’t necessary, but that kiss is in there.Pink Wants You To “Raise Your Glass” For The Underdogs In Her New Video Idolator Retrieved 2010-11-23 Other efforts included recording cover versions of popular songs for movies and television, such as the Beatles’ “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” for the animated musical series Beat Bugs (2016) and “White Rabbit” for Tim Burton’s Through the Looking Glass (2016). 'What About Us,' 'Beautiful Trauma' I almost always like a song or two off of her albums, and I lean toward preferring her first few, but I admire her greatly as a person. Not sure where that places me on the fandom spectrum, but there it is. That is where I am coming from. This account of Pink’s life starts with her debut album and to the release of her single off of her 2023 album, which is being released 02-17-2023. The focus of this book is heavy on discography, focusing on the origins of songs, partnerships, and even including a complete discography at the end. Interspersed with beautiful photos of Pink on tour and with her family, it gives you a glimpse of the tough as nails woman the book is also portraying.
