13.
Better Life
6.88

Highest score: 10 (Jüperbass)
Lowest score: 5 (Jordan Lee)


Better Life sees Pink wondering if her man could be dreaming of a better life. She said in an interview that she hates to look through social media and see people brag about how good their life is, when behind the screen its just the same as everyone else's life. Better Life has an R&B sound which is a nod to the early days of her career.




12.
But We Lost It
7.25


Highest score: 9 (Envoirment, SamJudd, Dalekturret32)
Lowest score: 5 (Mack)


QUOTE
“Still the girl that you chased all around the world/ I haven't changed, just replaced all the chains with pearls”

In the bridge, Pink sings “oh, the bone breaks/ It grows back stronger” and that’s exactly what she depicts through the past love narrative of the entire song. Pink broke through the chains that were holding her back, and replaced them with something beautiful, decorative.



11.
Revenge
7.25 (one 10)

Highest score: 10 (T Boy
Lowest score: 3 (Jordan Lee)


QUOTE
“He can't just get away with it, eye for eye, you piece of shit/ You treat us like a garbage pit, let me at him, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it”

Thursday night (Oct. 12) on The Tonight Show, Pink admitted to writing this song after having downed quite a bit of wine. In the second verse, Pink gathers her girlfriends to plot revenge, and in the delivery of the end of the line, “wait for it, wait for it,” switches to a sing-songy voice from her previous rapping to show that her girlfriends are holding her back from the fight.
QUOTE
"I reached out to him in this case," Pink said. "I love him. I've always loved him. I think he's a lyrical genius, and I just wrote him a love letter. I had written this song. I had went to the studio and drank a lot of wine, I wrote 'Revenge.'

"And then, I went home and drank more wine because that's what you do when you've already drank a lot of wine -- you think more wine is a good idea -- and I wrote him an email and I said, 'I love you. I've always loved you. I've loved you since you gave me your autograph at the 2001 MTV Music Video Awards. I love that you always work with the same people.' I just wrote this love letter, and he just wrote back, 'OK.'"
As for the song itself, Pink said, "it's a funny song. It's funny. It's fun. There's nothing serious about it. It's fun. My mom loves it. We're good."

I full expected You Get My Love to be out first. I really like it but it's the sort of thing I'd have thought some people really wouldn't.

Revenge being out so soon is a surprise too.

10.
You Get My Love
7.31

Highest score: 10 (...ready for it)
Lowest score: 4 (SGrey)



QUOTE
Not exactly a protest song, but Pink is surely protesting the end of this relationship. The title of the song is repeated many times throughout the track, but its repetition emphasizes the desperation of the plea. It’s as if love is all she has to give, and in the quiet hours of the morning as her partner is waking up, she puts it all out there one last time in hopes that the moment can live on.


09.
7.50
For Now

Highest score: 10 (TroublePink, CRAZY HORSE)
Lowest score: 5 (SGrey)





08.
Whatever You Want
7.63

Highest score: 10 (Envoirment)
Lowest score: 6 (SGrey)


QUOTE
The uplifting power ballad is a classic fighting-for-love song, in which she holds out in a relationship that feels doomed. “I feel like our ship's going down tonight / But it's always darkest before the light / And that's enough for me to try,” she sings.

I'm a sucker for unpolished vocals that channel such raw emotion so I quite like 'You Get My Love'. Certainly wasn't expecting it to be Top 10.

07.
I Am Here
7.69

Highest score: 10 (troublepink, CRAZY HORSE, Jordan Lee, SamJudd)
Lowest score: 5 (Dexton)


QUOTE
“I've already seen the bottom, so there's nothing to fear/ I know that I'll be ready when the devil is near”

It can literally only get better from here, according to Pink. When evil comes closer, she’ll be ready to fight because she’s been there, done that, over it.




6.
Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken
7.75

[i]Highest score: 11 (troublepink, dalekturret32)

Lowest score: 4 (SGrey)

WHCBB gets last place in the rate. Written by Pink and Michael Busbee, this song was originally wrote for 2015 movie Suffragette. “The movie is about the suffragette movement which is women’s right to vote,” P!nk said. “You have to fight for what’s rightly yours which is rights and respect and love and kindness and compassion and you have to be willing to die for it. These women were.”

Barbies
7.94

Highest score: 10 (T Boy, CRAZY HORSE, Jordan Lee)
Lowest score: 4 (Mack)


QUOTE
There are few songs more relatable in current pop culture than Pink's new song 'Barbies'. If ever you have felt like you wished your childhood away and that adulthood isn't all that it was cracked up to be, don't worry - she has felt the very same thing.



04.
Where We Go
7.94 (one 11)

Highest score: 11 (CRAZY HORSE)
Lowest score: 6 (Dexton)


QUOTE
She’s even more direct on “Where We Go,” singing to her partner, “We’ve both always been broken.”

I agree, Where We Go isn’t that good. Barbies definitely robbed of 4th place there!

03.
8.81
Secrets

Highest score: 11 (Dexton)
Lowest score: 7 (SGrey)


Climbing into the top 3, with promotion I feel this could have been a big hit.



02.
9.62
Beautiful Trauma

Highest score: 11 (...ready for it, T Boy, SamJudd, Liam, SGrey, HarryEzra)
Lowest score: 7 (liamk97, dalekturret32)





Just missing out on winning the rate is Beautiful Trauma, Pink's secondrelease from the same titled album. The music video is amazing, and this is my personal favourite on the album. So good to see it’s popular. It got the most 11s with 6!

-------------------------------------

01.
9.92
What About Us

Highest Score: 11 (Jordan Lee, Juperbass, Mack, Gavindeejay)
Lowest score: 8 (Liam)






And the winner is...... WHAT ABOUT US! The lead single from the album is still the most popular getting an average of almost 10. Not quite sneaking as many 11s as our second place but only one poster gave this less than a 9!

Secrets is still a fave I love it. Wish it took off as a single but so excited to see that on tour.

Barbies Wild Hearts and I Am Here are also among my favourites now heart.gif

I’m gonna give the whole album a listen again before my show on Sunday heart.gif
