Summary: Awesome
Comment: One of Pink's best CD's ever! This Rock-chick can sing with a voice that makes you shiver, save my life won't you help me? I saw her perform live twice now and she ROCKS, her voice is what music is, sheer excitement!

Summary: DON'T try this
Comment: i love pink. i bought her second album and loved it. Then this one came out 5 years ago. i didn't have any money at the time, but i liked the two singles "trouble" and "god is a dj"...however i never got around to buying it. Then she released "I'm not dead" like two years ago. it was awesome, it reminded me why i liked her in the first place. She's now about to release her 5 album and i love the new single.....so since i can't wait for it to be released..i thought i'd try this to satisfy my pink craving...Boy was i wrong.
there are two good songs on this cd. i have already named them. The rest of the songs are poorly sung, poorly written and sometimes strangely/poorly produced. i want my money back but you can't return open cds. she's not a rocker chick, and besides, she hardly has any hooks on here to prove she is one in the first place. truly dissapointing.

Summary: Try Pink.....If You Want It
Comment: People have said over and over again that this album doesn't have the poppy dance leaning that Missundaztood contained. It needs to be kept in mind though that Pink is someone whose made a lot of artistic growths over the years. This CD finds her in that place where she was riding on momentum from the previous album and her appearance on the Moulin Rouge soundtrack-she was hotter then a solar flare in 2003. Pink just didn't deliver the album people expected. And that's a good thing as it puts her in the same arena as Madonna and other female pop stars who made a career out of doing the unexpected.As for the music this does have a more organic,"real" sound and a edgier rock style. "Trouble" is just that,so is pretty much everything else here. The songs are really strong;just not as obviously so as before.Besides with it's 70's/80's R&B sound "Catch Me While I'm Sleeping" would'nt have been a bad musical direction for Pink to go in next. But the things that make Pink stand out in the crowd-her big soulful voice,autobiographic lyrics,great writing and "rebel girl" image are all alive and kicking on all thrusters here. So if you can deal with Pink's "ever changing moods" pick this one up and give it a try.Might be a lot of fun!

Summary: Try This and you'll like it
Comment: For Try This, P!nk opted to continue in the vein of previous singles like "Don't Let Me Get Me" and bring her music up a rocking notch or two, so she took the help of Tim Armstrong of Rancid, and came up with a damn fine album.
Not quite as meandering as her latest album, this album does have the hippity hoppity fun of dance in songs like "God Is A DJ" but with the opening rock hit of "Trouble" and the poppy stylings of "Walk Away" and "Save My Life" this isn't anywhere near that first album she put out there.
There's even a Peaches duet for crying out loud on the soothing and oh so gritty "Oh My God"; and of course Pink's raspy laced attitude is everywhere from the searing opener to the ballady closer. To me, Pink is the talent that is going to outlast them all and this is the album that everyone should own.

Summary: Great Example of Pink at her best
Comment: Pink shows her great talent in this recording as she did in her previous endeavors. She has several good songs that show off her superb vocal abilities.

While detractors may grouse that Pink's third album doesn't have a dance floor anthem on it like the incendiary "Get The Party Started" from 2001's Missundaztood, some prefer their Pink straight up and damn the paper drink umbrellas and crepe paper. She's at her very best raiding her own troubled autobiography for inspiration, spitting out vituperrious vocal epitaphs like seeds from a ripe watermelon instead of the angst-ridden confessional romp she took through Missundaztood. Maybe she's worked all that out on a psychiatrist's couch, because this time out her anger is much more arch and entertaining; likely due to her pairing with Rancid's Tim Armstrong, who co-wrote and produced most of the disc and certainly knows the value of turning rage into a well-crafted musical punch line. As unlikely as the collaboration looked on paper, it works perfectly because the Pennsylvania native has always brandished a punk sneer beneath the corsets, gaudy hair color, and naughty girl demeanor. Armstrong and his Rancid cohorts (Lars Frederiksen and Matt Freeman) inject feral rock action into the disc with their truncated guitar sounds and trash can drumming and provide a perfect foil for Pink's foul-mouth rants and backstage laments like "Last To Know." But Pink hasn't shaved her spiky coiffure into a Mohawk. She still smolders on a soulful ballad like "Catch Me While I'm Sleeping" or trades vitriol with raps' redoubtable sex kitten, Peaches. --Jaan Uhelszki
