 I just fell back in love with P!nk.  
 
I kinda fell off after I heard Blow, but then I've been hearing Try and JGMAR like crazy on radio and had to re-check out the album. Planning to buy it later.

Are you a fan of her older work?

 Yes, Funhouse is my favorite album. And Mean is my favorite P!nk song, it sounds like such a classic rock song your parents would have on a vinyl.

 Mean is an amazing song. One of her best for sure and one of the few songs where the album version is better than her live one.

 All this talk of Mean live (fantastic) makes me yearn for a full video/audio of the Funhouse Summer Carnival.    
[This is not a request BTW]

 Are the Target bonus tracks for The Truth About Love good? I'm thinking of picking that version because its the only deluxe version available for CD.

 Get the iTunes bonus tracks instead (Chaos & Piss + Timebomb)

 Is it me or do the older fans don't like "pop" P!nk? They seem to want the more acoustic, rock chick.  
But do they realize that if P!nk does another Try This she won't be commercial anymore? Her sales would decline and she, most probably, would lose her radio support once again.
 
Maybe I haven't been a stan long enough to understand people like Braz who prefer the "old" P!nk. But I just want her to come out with great music. And I want her to be commercially successful.   
And yes, I still think Braz overreacted.

 I've read about a hundred reviews, and so far the reception of True Love's video has been generally positive.

 I'm guessing the carrots tie into her cooking obsession.

 I understand people not liking this commercial side of her, but this IS the house that built her. Her songs may not resonate with you, but they still do with me. She writes about her life and where she's at. I LOVE this happier side of Pink. I don't understand some of the comments that sound like they want her and Carey to get divorced so she can be angry again? Like wtf? Why? Because you're jaded and alone? I do NOT care if you're "over her" as a stan because she's happy. That's ridiculous and selfish. That's not a real fan anyways. She's always been herself and always stays true to who she is at every point in her life. If this is her happy, dancey, poppy, commercial album, then so be it! I love every song on the album. If you're wanting songs like Lonely Girl, Runaway, Dear Diary, 
etc, then buy a Demi Lovato album. No shade. Just truth! Pink is almost 34 years old. She's grown up. She's not an angry girl anymore. She's a mother who is happy and in love with her daughter and her husband. Here's to never growing up? No! Here's to Pink growing up, loving every minute of it and not giving 2 ****s.  
 
I don't want another Try This, or Missudaztood, or whatever. I want a NEW album, and while her last 3 may have a lot of similar sounds, they are clearly 3 different albums with different messages and a few different sounds. I am more than excited to see what her next album brings because I am a fan of her. I enjoy what she gives me because its honest. It may be weird and it may be "just alright" at times, but it's never really trying to be anything. It just is what it is. Even when it's a message like Stupid Girls, it just is Pink. That's all I want and that's what she gives. She's not the same girl she was 10 years ago. If that upsets you as a fan, then I'm sorry, but she can't please everyone. She wouldn't be happy doing something she hated or didn't believe in just to please a bunch of pressed dated fans. It's just not who she is. You would think people would know that by now.  
 
Family Portait was written 12 years ago. Stupid Girls was written almost 8 years ago. She isn't going to be the same person all the time. She's human. Not a robot.

Excellent post Dperkins!   
Hope Braz reads! And Michael too.  And anyone who has been complaining.

 What's wrong with being critical? Why are we even here on Pop music discussion forum then if we're supposed to blindly worship everything she does? P!nk has said so several times that she appreciates the honesty and constructive criticism from her fans. Why so seriouuuuuuuuuuuuus? 
And mess @ David thinking Demi can compare to Lonely Girl, Runaway, Dear Diary

 Wait what. The video is cute! I mean, it might not have been as good as Try, or her previous works, but I think it suits the song. It's supposed to be carefree, lively and fun. The cameo from her family is a representation of true love, her running around with the carrot and other vegetables is weird but kinda hilarious too. The only thing I don't like is the tour thingy which I've never liked in every other artist's videography.

 She wouldn't be able to touch the political masterpiece that is Dear Mr. President either.   
The criticism should be welcomed. It actually stimulates conversation in base. Although lately I've been seen one too many people wishing bad break ups on their faves so they can get a more darker album. That's over the top, tbh.

 I never said "blindly worship". My point was that she has grown up and she's not the same person she was 12 years ago or even 6 years ago. I just don't understand the concept of wanting your fave to not grow up or change. She's human and it's natural for her to change. I can get the criticism of being annoyed by her being "too commercial" now, but I don't think it's right to want her to be the girl from Missundaztood or I'm Not Dead because she's not. She's older, wiser, happier and busier now. So her music has changed with that attitude change as well. I just don't want her to force anything for the sake of pleasing the people who want her to be that 23 year old pissed off rebel again. My point is, she's not going to be that, so expecting that from her is just going to lead to disappointment. You can criticize all you want, but there is a difference between criticism and whining. 
 
And I only referenced Demi because that's the only close pop artist in this day to having that "rebel yet wise and I'm gonna write a song about it" type girl. Lol. She could write a song like Lonely Girl or Family Portrait, but I don't think it would happen in today's music climate.
