I understand completely, even though I've never seen her live I've seen the videos. I have always said that I'd love to see her perform in a club for like 1,000 people instead of a huge arena.

I think she's one of those musicians who sort of got pegged as a "pop artist" at the beginning and had all of the negative connotations about musicianship that went along with it. I think her second and her fourth records really set her apart as an artist. She's not writing intellectual songs, but she is a damn good songwriter who is damn good at what she does. I feel that like Kelly Clarkson, she also crossed that all important line from pop music package artist into a full fledged artist.

Hey,I'm with you.I discovered Pink as a real artist when I picked up and listened to I'm Not Dead on MLK Day or Presidents' Day,and Mizunderstood after it.I wheeled Street Sense,but had other stuff too,so made a small profit.I don't think he's a lock,but am inclined to play him and either Hard Spun or Curlin,but not both,each 1st and 2nd,with all in the tri,and hope a bomb comes in 3rd.But we'll see. P.S To show you how good Pink is,how broad her appeal is,I'm JF's (a college student's )dad(and his picks are usually better than mine,as he bet Street Sense straight and had the tri.

That's my favorite.

Can't stop listening to this song,it's near perfect.Try the Youtube videos of Pink Who Knew Croatia and NEC(somewhere in England).The song gets even better with an energetic crowd behind her,one of which doesn't speak English!.Also try the Pink Wembley Get The Party Started Video.It's not my favorite song(although I heard her say it's the song that really made her),but the acrobatics are one of a kind.Oh,and the tri?
