What’s P!nks best single for you what you’d say is underrated.

She’s had so many huge smashes throughout her career but what’s your favourite track what you wished done better or what got lost amongst a huge campaign?

Nobody Knows sticks out oh my mind as being my favourite. Probably the “forgotten” I’m Not Dead single but it’s a gorgeous track.

Last To Know, overlooked and underrated. Her voice fits perfectly to rock sound. So bad that she didn't recorded more stuff like that.

I was just coming in here to say this! Last To Know deserved so much better than a low top 40 peak. No one but Pink fans remember it and it's never on the radio. sad.gif



Such a gorgeous ballad and probably my favourite single from the Funhouse era. Trouble and Family Portrait deserve mentions too.

I love 'Last To Know'! wub.gif

I suppose it was the third single from an underperforming era, I can't say I'm surprised it's not very remembered.

I can’t say I’m too keen on Last To Know tbh.

Try This is such a good album but I can honestly say the singles are bottom of the pile on that album for me. I’m so glad I’ve heard the album in full because there’s so many gems in form of the album tracks but the singles are pretty much all her worst singles for me.

I LOVE I Don’t Believe You though wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif wub.gif

Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely) is one I go back to a lot.

Also I'm often in the mood for Feel Good Time although its such an odd direction for her in retrospect.

Omg Feel Good Time! wub.gif I forgot about that gem. I think because it was a soundtrack single rather than linked to the Try This era it is easier to forget. laugh.gif I love the production on it (William Orbit who produced Pure Shores produced it I think) and the video is memorable!

Feel Good Time isn’t technically a good song but I absolutely love it laugh.gif it always reminds me of Summer 2003 (the really hot one, with other summery songs like Crazy In Love) and I absolutely love the video.

I love Last To Know as well but I always thought it was a poor choice for a single, even if whatever she released at that point would underperform anyway.

Leave Me Alone (I’m Lonely) is one of my favourite songs of hers, I was obsessed with it back in the Summer of 2006. I think it might have been a bigger hit if released earlier in the campaign but considering it had a no.34 peak, it did pretty well. It’s not very remembered though and that’s a shame.

Feel Good Time really doesn’t feel like a #3 hit!

It’s actually on my edition of Try This too but I always associate Trouble as that eras lead

Feel Good Time was on at least the UK version of Try This-it’s on my vinyl copy too so I’m assuming it was on all of them? It’s counted as the lead single in the UK but everywhere else counts Trouble as the lead, which really it was.

To be fair wasn't it released pretty late in the album campaign? laugh.gif And the follow-ups to WMH were flops too. kink.gif

I find Can We Pretend so underrated, it's such a banger and different to what she normally does. I think it could have potentially been mildly successful had it gotten more promotion, but then again the production doesn't quite gel with a lot of fans.

Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)

Its annoying cause it would've been a hit hadn't it been properly fully released

I Don’t Believe You is an amazing song

I’d also say Dear Mr President

Absolutely! Two of her most underrated masterpieces

Leave Me Alone (I’m Lonely) is amazing too
