Editorial Reviews :
There's a rule in commercial pop: don't bite the hand that feeds you. Translation? If you're getting love on TRL, it's best leaving well enough alone and tinkering only slightly with the sound that pays your bills. So you have to give Pink a whole heap of credit. The Philly-raised songbird may have made her rep with infectious and rugged pop-R&B hits like 'There You Go' and the remake of 'Lady Marmalade,' but like the fuchsia coif she once sported, that sound is gone. In its place is a more driving alt-rock attack, liberally laced with some late-night blues and heartfelt lyrics that, while they sometimes come off like diary entries (the simplistic bon mot 'Your pain is painful' in 'Family Portrait'), are clearly Pink's thoughts, as opposed to words someone put in her mouth. Helping Pink express her inner Alanis are Dallas Austin, who produced the insistent rocker '18 Wheeler,' and former 4 Non Blonde Linda Perry, who Pink has resurrected from one-hit-wonder status. Mixing up thumping beats, ('Get the Party Started'), with folksy confessionals, Pink's potent vocals and her honest determination make this a risk worth hearing.
Buyer Reviews :
'Missundaztood' may have meant that if you heard her debut album, you'd have no idea how good P!nk can really be. Clearly given more control to be herself this time around, P!nk takes hold and showcases her strong voice with emotion and passion that somehow escapes the Britney clones. And, since P!nk calls this her 'real' album, who can argue?
Give her credit, she stands toe to toe with Aerosmith's Steven Tyler and Four Non-Blonde's Linda Perry on duets and comes off sounding every bit as good. The writing, while minimalist and hook laden, holds extraordinary depth. Especially on tracks such as 'Family Portrait' and 'Dear Diary.'
I haven't stopped listening to this CD for a week. Which for me is amazing. Especially when you consider I barely made it through her first CD once.
