Pink - Funhouse

Shoutout to all my pop fan followers and readers today. Frankly, I'm shocked that no one has dropped a Pink album in the Suggestion Box. I know a bunch of you enjoy her music - so it's a bit odd. Regardless, her new single 'F***in' Perfect' has been all over the radio as of late, and it made me think of doing an album by her. "Pink's" real name is Alecia Beth Moore and she was born in 1979 in Philadelphia, PA. She was born a healthy baby, but was diagnosed with asthma shortly after birth. That really plagued her childhood. She starting writing at a very young age as an outlet for her frustrations. She began performing at local clubs at age 14, and eventually formed a three girl group called 'Choice' at 16. They even got a small deal with LA Reid and worked with different people trying to get a record out there. It never happened, but it was probably great experience for her solo stuff. She took the name Pink oddly enough from the film Reservoir Dogs and the Mr. Pink character. Her debut album dropped in 2000 and saw solid success. Her sophomore album is a nice 5x platinum - her best selling to date. I decided to run with this album for no other reason that it has my personal fave Pink track on it (which will be number one in the Top 3) Although this record is only 1x platinum in the states, it's an odd 11x in Australia. I have no idea why. She's had some ups and downs with her husband Carey Hart, but they are expecting their first child soon. Her music career is up and down too. She has her fair share of critics and fans alike. I'm a bit on the fence. I wouldn't actively listen to this - but it's not the worst pop music ever. It's certainly worth checking out today if you've never heard the whole thing. I'm pretty certain if you're a popper, you'll enjoy this.
