As in the thread title, which Pink song was the first you felt you had a connection to? Was it the song that made you a fan?

For me, I think it was Don’t Let Me Get Me was the one. I was 13, not amazingly happy in school, didn’t feel like I fitted in and I heard this song on the radio and it was one of the first times I realised I wasn’t so different to loads of other people and that others felt a bit like outcasts too. From this point on I respected Pink a lot more than previously and soon became a massive fan.

I'd say Don't Let Me Get Me too, not so much that I related to it but it was much more personal than her previous singles which made it stand out. It was the song that made me a fan, even though I liked everything else I'd heard from her too. I connected with Family Portrait too for the same reason.

For me it was there you go. I was going through a bit of an r&b phase at the time and listening to a lot of tlc so when I first heard there you go I was hooked. Over a short space of time my music taste changed to a more rocky sound which fitted with Missundaztood which is why I love the Miss and TT albums. I love rock Pink 💕

Missundaztood was my first, I saved up my dinner money at school to buy it laugh.gif my mum used to give me £1.20 a day, I’d spend 20p and save the £1 to save and buy music

Just Like A Pill was the first song that really made me take an interest in her and led me to buying my first Pink album.

Whilst I liked some of the stuff from her first album, 'Don't Let Me Get Me' was the first track I really liked from her.

it seems a lot of people connected with Don't Let Me Get Me, which is funny because Pink doesn't like that song anymore nocheer.gif

For me it was There You Go, I loved her attitude and her style. What really made a fan was Just Like A Pill though!

Don't Let Me Get me, Just Like a Pill, Family Portrait. I think I heard Just Like a Pill first of those three though so that would be the one.

Her first album I actually bought though was I'm Not Dead and pretty much all of that album resonates with me hard, the title track especially.

I think Missundaztood reached quite a lot of people at the time, particularly teenagers.

Try This was my first Pink album, I was living for rock Pink at the time!

I agree about I’m Not Dead, I think it will always be my favourite album of hers. It reminds me of an amazing time in my life and it’s just so good!

Get The Party Started was the first song I ever sang on karaoke when I was like 7 year old so that sticks out to me.

I discovered 'Just Like A Pill' at a friend's house on SingStar and was immediately hooked! laugh.gif I then found my parents' copy of 'M!ssundaztood' and spammed that CD every morning before school for a while, in addition to Busted's debut. Good times.
