Alecia
Beth Moore(born September 8, 1979), known professionally as Pink (stylized as P!nk),
is an American singer, songwriter, dancer, actress, record producer,
spokesperson, and model. She
was originally a member of the girl group Choice. In 1995, LaFace
Records saw potential in P!nk and offered her a solo recording contract. Her R&B-influenced
debut studio album Can't Take Me Home (2000) was certified double-platinum in
the United States and spawned two Billboard Hot 100 top-ten songs: "There
You Go" and "Most Girls". She gained further recognition with
the collaborative single "Lady Marmalade" from the Moulin Rouge! soundtrack,
which topped many charts worldwide. Refocusing her sound to pop rock with her
second studio album Missundaztood (2001), the album sold more than 13 million
copies worldwide and yielded the international number-one songs "Get the
Party Started", "Don't Let Me Get Me", and "Just Like a
Pill".
While
P!nk's third studio album, Try This(2003), sold fewer copies than her previous
work, it earned her the Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance for
the single "Trouble". She returned to the top of record charts with
her fourth and fifth studio albums, I'm Not Dead(2006) and Funhouse(2008),
which generated the top-ten entries "Who Knew" and "U + Ur Hand",
as well as the number-one single "So What". Pink's sixth studio
album, The Truth About Love (2012), was her first album to debut atop the Billboard
200 chart and spawned her fourth number-one single, "Just Give Me a Reason".
In 2014, Pink recorded a collaborative album, Rose Ave., with Canadian musician
Dallas Green under a folk music duo named You+Me. Her seventh studio album, Beautiful
Trauma (2017), became the third best-selling album of the year and saw the
success of its lead single, "What About Us".
Recognized
for her distinctive, raspy voice and acrobatic stage presence, Pink has sold
over 90 million records worldwide, making her one of the world's best-selling
music artists. Her career accolades include three Grammy Awards, two Brit
Awards, a Daytime Emmy Award and seven MTV Video Music Awards, including the Michael
Jackson Video Vanguard Award. In 2009, Billboard named Pink the Pop Songs
Artist of the Decade. Pink was also the second most-played female solo artist
in the United Kingdom, during the 2000s decade, behind Madonna. VH1 ranked her
number 10 on their list of the 100 Greatest Women in Music, while Billboard awarded
her the Woman of the Year award in 2013. At the 63rd annual BMI Pop Awards, she
received the BMI President's Award for "her outstanding achievement in
songwriting and global impact on pop culture and the entertainment
industry."
"What's
Up?" is a song by American rock group 4 Non Blondes from their 1992 debut
album, Bigger, Better, Faster, More! It was released as the album's second
single in 1993. It was successful in the United States and in several European
countries, peaking at number one in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Germany,
Iceland, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Sweden and Switzerland.
Twenty-five years
and my life is still
Trying to get up
the great big hill of hope
For a destination
I realized quickly
when I knew I should
That the world was
never this brotherhood of man
For whatever that
means
And so I cry
sometimes
When I'm lying in
bed Just to get it all out
What's in my head
And I, I am feeling
a little peculiar.
And so I wake in
the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep
breath and I get real high
And I scream at the
top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say: HEY!
yeah yeaaah, HEY yeah yea
I said hey, what's
going on?
And I say: HEY!
yeah yeaaah, HEY yeah yea
I said hey, what's
going on?
ooh, ooh ooh
and I try, oh my
god do I try
I try all the time,
in these institutions
And I pray, oh my
god do I pray
I pray every single
day
For a revolution.
And so I cry
sometimes
When I'm lying bed
Just to get it all
out
What's in my head
And I, I am feeling
a little peculiar
And so I wake in
the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath
and I get real high
And I scream at the
top of my lungs
What's going on?
And I say, hey hey
hey hey
I said hey, what's
going on?
Twenty-five years
and my life is still
Trying to get up
that great big hill of hope
for a destination.
