February 17, 20233 yr Her last album opened with like 48k. She will be number one. Hopefully she gets it although i know her sales will most likely be well down on 48k she previously got. I would be really really happy if she could do 30k.
February 17, 20233 yr Just listened to Hate Me first as that’s the one I was most anticipating. It’s good, just like 2006-10. I think it would’ve been a sizeable hit for her back then too.
February 17, 20233 yr KISS FM in Melbourne and I presume Australia is playing the album in full. Just finishing Turbulence and it’s great!
February 17, 20233 yr Starts off with 3 absolutely amazing tracks and then 'Long Way to Go' brings it down a bit. Halfway through my first listen, already sounding like a much better and more accomplished album than H2BH.
February 17, 20233 yr Mixed to decent critic reviews: Evening Standard: 'pure pop sounds out of place on this mature record' (3/5) Express: 'Pink is a lover and a fighter' (no score?) The Independent: 'pop artist’s mix of dance-pop, folk and rock feels oddly unsettled' (3/5) The Line of Best Fit: 'another unstimulating record from the department store hitmaker' (5/10) The Times: 'straightforward, unpretentious charm' (4/5) WhyNow: 'Pink’s new album is an oddball mix of styles' (3/5)
February 17, 20233 yr I’m enjoying this! I glazed over all her albums in the last 10 years, but this is decent step up! Top 3 at the moment would be: Turbulence, Runaway and Hate Me.. but When I Get There was a moment.
February 17, 20233 yr Just had my first listen through and I think she’s done it again! On one listen, I don’t think it’ll be my absolute favourite of hers but I’d stick my neck out to say it’s her strongest album since Funhouse. Turbulence, Runaway and Hate Me are my faves so far along with the three track we’d already heard. Very satisfied customer here.
February 17, 20233 yr Author Wow. Just WOW. I haven't felt like this about a Pink album for a long time. I've listened to it about 3 times now but only as I'm going to/from work & on lunch break. I need to sit down, listen to the words in peace with no distractions. First impressions are that this is an incredible album. Stand out tracks for me are Turbulence, Runaway and Hate me... omg Hate me! This is a song that neeeeds to be played loud! There aren't any songs that I dislike on this one, on most albums there is at least one, but even i'm even loving Trustfall now! :lol:
February 17, 20233 yr So something came up last night and I’m doing my first proper full listen through now. Up to Turbulence.
February 17, 20233 yr I'm loving the album. So many great songs. My favourites so far will be "Trustfall", "Runaway" and "Hate Me". The latter two scream singles. Although "When I Get There" is so beautiful and glad to see it being used as a promo single - it's been charting quite well on Apple Music/Amazon so far. I also have to say "Long Way to Go" is really addictive/great. I wasn't too keen on it at first as it seemed to mellow out such a strong start to the album, but it got stuck in my head. 7/13 of the tracks are in the top 200 on Apple Music with "Trustfall" and "Never Gonna Not Dance Again" rising a lot. Both look to get new peaks in the upcoming week. "When I Get There" will likely chart in the top 75 as well. Great result for P!nk. Looking forward to her Graham Norton performance of "Trustfall" tonight.
February 17, 20233 yr Very solid album, it’s got me wanting to revisit all of her albums now. Hate Me is the absolute standout for me.
February 17, 20233 yr Hate me and trustfall are the 2 standouts for me so far but overall its a really solid album.
February 18, 20233 yr I think it's very telling that everyone's favourites are Hate Me & Runaway. I really dislike Lost Cause. :manson: Hate Me is very reminiscent of her I'm Not Dead glory days. Edited February 18, 20233 yr by Voodoo
February 18, 20233 yr When I get there is doing well on itunes. It's doing well on Apple Music/Amazon too. It should debut in the top 100 in the upcoming chart - hoping top 75 or higher! She did this live performance for BBC Radio 2 as well which I think helped it: nMtco5lJ8rk It's gotten over 100k views which is good. Hopefully a good chunk of those are from the UK and will go towards its streaming numbers for this week!
