Just sat down and listened to the whole album in bed with headphones First impressions...

**** Like You and Walk of Shame are absolutely amazing, I adore them both for how fun they are haha!

I was expecting to like The Great Escape after all the hype in this thread but it's probably one of my least favourites

I love Is This Thing On and Run, my 2 favourite deluxe tracks.

Don't see the point in the Lily Allen feature as she's barely there at all.

How Come You're Not Here is also a song I really enjoyed.

Not a fan of Here Comes The Weekend.

/random thoughts from a fairly new Pink fan

Do we know whose voice it is at the end of "Run"?

I'm guessing the album booklet would tell us?

This is my only disappointment Should have been a duet instead of a 15secs featuring.

"Run" is slowly becoming one of my top three songs on this album.

Totally agreed, I would have loved to have heard Lily in a song like Just Give Me A Reason where the feature is much more obvious and actually adds to the song instead of just being 'put there' which is what Lily's part feels like to me right now.

Exactly I mean, I can understand Eminem because he's a rapper but Lilly deserved something similar to Nate's

I'm in a party mode right now and Here Comes the Weekend is giving me life. That could be a big hit.

That's the thing about this album.

I feel it's quite diverse and mixed that it's impossible to listen to the album in full and enjoy every song, 'cause each song fits different moods.

Hey guys, do we have Timebomb & Chaos and Piss yet?

Here is an old interview P!nk did over 10 years ago....It is actually interesting to see they were worried about M!zzunderstood

Posted 19 November 2001 - 01:01 PM
Today, Pink appears in yellow: Her hair, no longer fuchsia, is a
sunny blond, and she's wearing a straw-colored jacket. Two weeks ago, on Halloween, Pink appeared entirely in green. "I went to the Village parade and not a single person recognized me," smirks the singer, as she sits in an upper West Side penthouse. "I loved it."

She had better hope others like that sort of thing, too. The 22-year-old singer just recorded an album that none of the 2 million fans who purchased her first album will in any way recognize. For her 2000 debut, "Can't Take Me Home," the singer recorded rigidly commercial, Destiny's Child-ish R&B like no white girl had before. On "Missundaztood," to be released Nov. 20, Pink gunned her engines in a totally different direction, recording rock- and blues-tinged pop.

It's as if Beyonce Knowles suddenly ripped off a mask and announced "Guess what? I am actually Gwen Stefani."

"I had to do it," declares Pink, formerly Alicia Moore. "[In my past]
I was the lead singer of a punk-rock band. I sang gospel in black
churches. I sang opera. I love all music. And I've always had a big
problem with having to put it into categories."

So do a lot of people, but hardly any of them manage to convince their record company to let them turn their backs on a hit franchise after just one album. Normally, when a musician tries to make a break with his or her accepted sound to create something fresh, the company listens politely, pats them on the head, then tells them to go cut the "real" record.

Pink says that's just how L.A. Reid, her boss at Arista, reacted at
first. That's understandable, considering Reid himself remains relatively untested at Arista, having taken over from Clive Davis only in the last year.

"He said I was abandoning my fans and that there's no way" he would release it, Pink explains. "He said people are expecting another 'Can't Take Me Home.' I said, 'I refuse to live in fear. If everyone else lives in fear, I will live in love.' "

Pretty uppity stuff from a pipsqueak singer. But Pink says her
feistiness eventually wore Reid down. (The executive declined the Daily News' request for a comment.) "I know how to push buttons," she says with a triumphant smile. "I know it p--sed him off when I said, 'You're living in fear.' I said, 'You're f---ing scared.' He said
'I'm not scared. I released "Outkast." ' He kept bringing up that I
said he was scared. He thought about it and eventually said 'You're
right. You're an artist. Go ahead.' "

Making things riskier was Pink's choice of a writing and production
partner. She tracked down Linda Perry, an artist most music fans know only as the frontwoman of 4 Non-Blondes, one-hit-wonders from the '80s with "What's Going On?" Clearly, Pink saw more in Perry.

"I don't care what other people think. If you make a song that makes my day better, I have respect for you. I'll never forget being 13 years old and sitting on the corner with my only two friends who could play guitar and jamming to at least four of those [4 Non-Blondes] songs every night and getting arrested for disturbing the peace."

Pink got to pay back her hero by reviving Perry's fairly dead career.
"This brought her out of her bubble," she says with a beam. It also gave Pink a way to fully collaborate on her recordings, unlike on her debut, where the producers controlled things. The singer admits her first album was rife with cliches.

"It's a combination of where I was at the time and of having to crawl before you can walk," she says. "Yes, it was restraining. I think of singing to a [studio] DAT machine as karaoke. I've seen drag queens in Vegas do it better than I did. The best thing I can say was that I refused to lip-sync. I would sound terrible before I would do that."

Pink credits her defiance to her father. "I am my dad," she declares.
"He's a smart a——. We're not allowed to travel together. The label frowns on it because we get into trouble."
