Worst Pink single

I clicked on the thread meaning to vote for "just like a pill", nothing else listed even comes close to changing my mind. It is dreadful, portentious, pompous and leaden. I think it's one of the worst singles I've ever heard.

i hope this poll helps you figure this out dom!!

"Family Portrait" because it sounds a bit like an R&B number. Pink is generally better than most of the prefabricated stuff kids are into these days.

i like There You Go, GTPS and Stoopid Girls

I'm surprised at how many of her singles I've really liked. At least half of those listed above.

"Don't Let Me Get Me" is my least favorite of her solo hits, although maybe some of these non-hits weren't any good and I just never heard them enough to form an opinion. Making "Lady Marmalade" an option really makes it tempting to just default to that one, though.

the new one is terrible..

difficult thread, and i say this as someone who occasionally likes pink. voted for "so what" -- it's the only one listed that's epic fail on all counts, inc. lyrics, music, production, etc.

it's weird how good 'don't let me get me' and 'just like a pill' seem in light of everything which followed. pink's idea of artistic growth really seems to be based around freeing herself from the shackles of subtlety. my vote goes to 'so what' though i haven't heard some of the flops (and am very happy w/this situation, w/specific reference to that thing calling itself 'dear mr president').

her first four solo singles are so great though...'most girls' is such a jam. a promising career ruined.

(nb obv i don't think 'don't let me get me' or 'just like a pill' are actually good! but next to TROUBLE YEAH TROUBLE I'M TROUBLE TROUBLE TROUBLE anything would seem good)

obv

"Trouble" is so totally her best single or at least top 3.

all of them

only ones i like (a bit) are 'most girls' and 'you make me sick' and 'get this party started'. pink's rubbish eh?

god is a dj is the worst of the ones that i know i thiink

although im sure it's actually the one called dear mr. president

"Dear Mr. President" is pretty good, iirc.

No opinion, as I've not heard the bulk of these songs...however, I find it amusing that you initiated this thread around the same time that you did the Deep Blue Something vs Rembrandts throwdown. Just as those bands are exemplary of mid-nineties schlock, it occurred to me the other day that "Get the Party Started" is a fine example of something from the early '00's that can't help but age wretchedly.

"dear mr. president" was REALLY popular in germany last year. it is terrible.

(nb: these two statements have no bearing on one another)

ok, i just listened to "Dear Mr. President" again, and agree that it's not much of a single, but it works just fine in the context of the album, indigo girls and all.

I like Pink as a pop artist just fine, but I can't bring myself to muster anything but indifference to her songs, that is, except for "Most Girls," which is ace.

family portrait. serious pink = do not want

I haven't heard a lot of these, but the ones I've heard I've mostly liked - "Don't Let Me Get Me" is excellent, and "Trouble" and "U + Ur Hand" are also fine.

"Feel Good Time" is super-overlooked. Worth tracking down Beck's demo version, too.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

it always strikes me as hilarious when some of these pop song titles are (non-ironically) use text abbreviations like "u" and "ur" etc. i mean, it's not like the actual singer wrote the songs, so the notion of some middle aged, white loser ghostwriter naming a song that in hopes of being culturally relevant is quite pathetic. how much must those guys hate their lives?
i'm not some anti-pop guy, either. i'm just saying some things are laughable.

1 in the pink. all in the stink.

Pink obviously wrote "U + Ur Hand" tonight, man. No one else could have written it. Incidentally, that was my vote, although "There U Go," "Family Portrait," "Feel Good Time," and "So What" were all definite contenders. I'm consistently amazed when I hear a Pink song I actually like.

"Don't Let Me Get Me"
"Just like a Pill"
"Family Portrait"
"Feel Good Time"
"Trouble"

^^^did we ever have a thread for the worst five single run of any artist this decade? Because that's gonna be hard to top.

;_;

lol i loved just like a pill when it came out

i dont think i've heard anything else by her in the intervening six years

In the video, P!nk is seen sitting in front of an elephant. After the elephant had been on the set, she saw the abuse and captivity the animal was in. "Pink learned about the abuse of captive elephants when a trainer brought one onto the set of her 'Just like a Pill' video. She could see that something was wrong and she called us to learn more about the issue. Now, Pink would like to see circuses pack their trunks", according to PETA spokesman Dan Mathews.[2]

Of what I remember, "Get the Party Started" is the worst, and these are the best:
"Don't Let Me Get Me"
"Just like a Pill"
"Family Portrait"
"God Is a DJ"
"Who Knew"
"U + Ur Hand"
"So What"

And you guys are so astoundingly wrong!

This thread is based on a scientifically unsound concept: that anything Pink does is anything other than excellent.

OTM

close but no cigar.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

am assuming prankster votes here, then

why?

because "Most Girls" is awesome!

I don't get this hatred. If ILM usually likes pop, then what is wrong with good pop like Pink??

At least, Pink isn't built on awful and repetitive and tuneless R&B. Instead she is built on classic melodic powerpop/punk pop, which is extremely much better.

Pink >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Beyonce & Rihanna!!!!

¯\(°_o)/¯

surprised dear mr president didnt get more votes. that song's fucked as.

Is this the first time Hongro self-parodes?

You reckon he is?

Anyroad, would have voted "Last to know" as it's just the first of the "I'm a famous rock star and who are you moan moan moan" songs.

Seriously, if all acts like Justin Timberlake, Rihanna and Beyonce disappeared and were replaced by acts like Pink and Avril Lavigne, today's kids would have had much bettter musical taste.
