In a world of hyphenates, Pink all but dares us to come up with one to describe her place in the pop landscape, besides anything so earthbound as “singer-songwriter.” Maybe “gymnast-therapist”…
, as her direct support acts for the “Summer Carnival” stadium tour . Pink and Carlile go back — they wrote a still-unrecorded song together 15 years ago. “The first time I heard her sing, I was in my car and it was when her voice cracks during ‘The Story,’ and I had to pull my car over,” Pink remembers.
“I feel like I’ve found three voices in 43 years,” she declares. “My first voice was opera, because I used to sing ‘Phantom of the Opera’ and ‘Les Miz’ — things like that. Then my second voice was R&B-ish, but I sounded like Alvin from Alvin and the Chipmunks. But I was also smoking, and I was steadily getting raspier and raspier, which is why Janis was an easy sell for me. I loved it, but then it started going too far.
“But that’s why we have music and dancing,” she adds. “And that’s the other part of the record, with songs like ‘Never Gonna Not Dance Again’,” a Max Martin and Shellback-coproduced number that is the new album’s first single. “I’m a Virgo, I’m a mom, I’m a a daughter, I’m a sister, I’m a parent, I’ve been in a relationship for a long time, and I worry, worry, worry worry. I’m overthinking all the time.
The most personal song on the new record may be the harrowing ballad “Lost Cause,” sung from the point of view of a woman who just wants to be told she isn’t a piece of shit. Written by Stephen Wrabel, Sam de Jong and Sam Romans, it resonated with Pink because of a conversation she had with Hart. “He came to me a long time ago — at a good moment, when we arguing — and said, ‘Hey, when we argue and you say really mean things, it hurts me and I really need you to stop.
