Let's get this out of the way right off the bat: sometimes even we here at ScopiSat are wrong. Not often, but we are only human after all. Well, mostly human - a good portion of us is made up of glitter and awesome middle-8 breakdowns, but that's a whole different discussion. In any case, a few days ago we gave a not-terrible-but-certainly-not-glowing review of Pink's new single 'Raise A Glass.' And we were wrong. Quite wrong, as it happens, because 'Raise A Glass' is actually a stompingly glorious track that more than deserves our praise.
Now, with that nasty business out of the way, we can get down to the real news of the day - that Pink has made a music video for 'Glass' and it, like the track, is VERY NOT HORRIBLE. It's very 'Pink' in that sort of multiple-personality way that her videos have, jumping around from scene to scene. And what scenes they are - from a sumo-wrestling smackdown to....ladies being milked (seriously, it's as strange as it sounds) - the whole thing is energetic, slick and as one would expect from a refined Lady such as Pink, quite a bit of fun.
Pink is rad for a lot of reasons. For sticking around the pop scene this long, for telling "the suits" to go f*ck themselves, for continually striving to be better at her craft, for being named Pink, and most importantly, for 'Just Like A Pill.'
After 5 studio albums, it's high time she put out a greatest hits record, and this November she will do just that. A week prior, however, will see the release of 'Raise A Glass,' the Max Martin-ified lead single from the collection and is one of three brand new tracks. It's all Pink-y guitars and drums and rockiness, but we're not 100% sold yet. Luckily, though, even mediocre Pink is still better than most pop music out there, so we'll take whatever we can get.
