Life.Whatever.

Many musicians come and they go.  One hit wonders, pop princesses, and rappers.  One artist that continues to grow, both emotionally and lyrically, is P!nk.  She has had not only massive hits on the radio and has the title of two-time Grammy Award winner, but she’s been in the business for over 10 years, which is a difficult feat to achieve by today’s standards.

What makes P!nk different than other musicians is her uniqueness.  She has worked with megastars and continues to pump out meaningful songs that not only sound good, but deliver an uplifting and heartfelt message.  Take Dear Mr. President, for example.  It has such raw emotion and lyrics to it, that you can’t help but to shed a tear while listening to it. “How do you sleep while the rest of us cry? How do you dream, when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?  How do you walk with your head held high? Can you even look me in the eye?”

Then listen to a song like Fuckin’ Perfect.  An upbeat, contemporary track, which makes you feel good.  But then you listen to the lyrics and chuckle because the track is upbeat, but the lyrics convey a much different message.  And the video is not only disturbing and uncomfortable to watch, but it’s gutwrenching meaning behind it leaves you applaud P!nk for not fitting the generic Hollywood mould.  And then she goes and makes a track with Eminem, which is wicked cool.  Bloody awesome.

Kudos, P!nk.  Thank you for inspiring a generation of change and to just be yourself.

I heard that you're settled down,
That you found a girl and you're married now,
I heard that your dreams came true,
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you,
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light,

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah,

You know how the time flies,
Only yesterday was the time of our lives,
We were born and raised in a summer haze,
Bound by the surprise of our glory days,

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"

Nothing compares,
No worries or cares,
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made,
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead.
