P!NK

Alecia Beth Moore (born September 8, 1979), better known by her stage name, Pink (stylized as P!nk), is an American singer. She released her first single "There You Go", on her first album, the R&B-oriented Can't Take Me Home, in 2000 via LaFace Records, which garnered
commercial success. Her more pop rock-oriented second studio album,
Missundaztood, which began a marked shift in the sound of her music, was
released in 2001 and was a huge success worldwide.

Pink released her third album, Try This, in November 2003, which although less successful commercially than her previous release, still managed to sell around 3 million copies and earned her a Grammy for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance for the single Trouble. Her fourth album, called "I'm Not Dead", was released in April 2006. The album generated several hit singles, including "Stupid Girls", "U + Ur Hand" and "Who Knew". Both "U + Ur Hand" and "Who Knew" went to #1 on the pop chart. Her fifth album, Funhouse, was released in late October 2008 and was preceded by her first solo number one on the Hot 100, "So What". The album notched three other Top 20 hits: Sober", "Please Don't Leave Me" and "Glitter in the Air". On November 15, 2010, she released her first compilation, Greatest Hits... So Far!!!.According to Billboard, Pink was rated #13 on the list of Artists of the Decade and #1 Pop Song Artist of the Decade (2000–2009). She has also scored ten Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 US hits, including eight as a solo artist, and has won two Grammy Awards, 5 MTV Video Music Awards and 2 Brit Awards. The People's Chart, announced through BBC Radio 1, declared Pink as the 11th Most Played Artist on UK Radio of the decade 2000 to 2009. Pink has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide. Forbes Magazine in 2010 named Pink the 27th most powerful celebrity, with $44 million earned between June 2009 and June 2010.

Pink was born on September 8, 1979, in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, to Judith Moore, a nurse, and James Moore, Jr., a Vietnam veteran. Her father is Catholic and her mother is Jewish, and her ancestors emigrated from Ireland, Germany, and Lithuania. Pink grew up in Doylestown,
where she attended Kutz Elementary School, Lenape Middle School, and Central
Bucks High School West. Her father played guitar and sang songs for her, and
from an early age she aspired to be a rock star. Pink has a brother, Jason
Moore (born 1977). In high school, Moore joined her first band, Middleground,
the band folded upon losing a battle of the bands competition. Pink developed
her voice early in life. Although a healthy baby at birth, she quickly
developed asthma that plagued her through her early years. When she was a
teenager, she wrote lyrics as an outlet for her feelings, and her mother
commented, "Her initial writings were always very introspective. Some of
it was very black, and very deep, almost worrisome." She began performing
in Philadelphia clubs when she was 14 years old, and went through phases as a
skateboarder, hip-hopper and gymnast. At 16, together with two other teenage
girls, she formed the R&B group Choice. They landed a deal with L.A. Reid
and worked with various producers for two years, never releasing a record,
before Reid persuaded Moore to go solo. Her stage name "Pink" was
coined as a tribute to the character Mr. Pink from the film Reservoir Dogs.

Personal life

Pink met professional motocross racer Carey Hart at the 2001 X Games in Philadelphia. Hart had previously been screened in Pink's early music video clip "Just Like a Pill”. In 2005, Hart proposed to Pink during a Mammoth Lakes, California motocross race by holding up a
"Will you marry me?" sign on his pit board. Underneath was written "I'm serious!". They got married in Costa Rica on January 7, 2006.

After months of speculation, Pink announced on February 19, 2008, that she and Hart had separated. The video for her 2008 hit "So What", in which Hart appears, deals with her separation and pending divorce. During their separation, in August 2008, Pink was supportive of her estranged husband when Hart's brother died due to injuries sustained in a motocross competition. In March 2009, Hart said he and Pink were "dating". He also said the couple was attempting to work things out, stating, "Sometimes you have to take a couple of steps back to move forward". In April 2009, Pink said the couple had gone to marriage counselling and were never divorced. On February 5, 2010, Pink confirmed she and her husband were back together. She said the separation taught her not to try to change him and that she also had to work on herself in order to save her marriage.

On November 17, 2010, Pink announced during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that she is pregnant with her and Hart's first child. Pink stated that she has had a miscarriage in the past, and that her doctor believes the new baby is a girl.

P!nk – Raise Your Glass video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjVNlG5cZyQ

Lyrics

Right right, turn off the lights
We gonna lose our minds tonight
What's the dealio?

I love when it's all too much
5AM turn the radio up
Where's the rock and roll?

Party crasher, penny snatcher
Call me up if you are gangster
Don't be fancy
Just get dancey
Why so serious?
So raise your glass if you are wrong
In all the right ways
All my underdogs, we will never be, never be
Anything but loud
And nitty gritty dirty little freaks
Won't you come on, and come on, and
Raise your glass
Just come on and come and Raise Your Glass!

Slam slam oh hot damn

What part of party don't you understand?
Wish you'd just freak out (freak out already)
Can't stop coming in hot
I should be locked up right on the spot
It's so on right now (so fuckin' on right now)

Party crasher, penny snatcher
Call me up if you a gangster
Don't be fancy
Just get dancey
Why so serious?

So raise your glass if you are wrong
In all the right ways
All my underdogs, we will never be, never be
Anything but loud
And nitty gritty dirty little freaks

Won't you come on, and come on, and
Raise your glass
Just come on and come and
Raise Your Glass!
Won't you come on and come on and
Raise your glass!
Just come on and come and
Raise your glass!

Oh shit my glass is empty...

that sucks !

So if you're too school for cool (I mean...)
And you're treated like a fool (treated like a fool)
You could choose to let it go
We can always, we can always
party on our own...

So raise your (Aw fuck)
So raise your glass if you are wrong
In all the right ways
All my underdogs, we will never be, never be
Anything but loud
And nitty gritty dirty little freaks
So raise your glass if you are wrong
In all the right ways
All my underdogs, we will never be never be!
Anything but loud
And nitty gritty dirty little freaks
Won't you come on! and come on! and
Raise your glass
Just come on and come and
Raise your glass
Won't you come on! and come on! and
Raise your glass
For me
Just come on and come and
Raise your glass...for me
