Archívum – Slágerlisták – MAHASZ" (in Hungarian). Rádiós Top 40 játszási lista. Magyar Hanglemezkiadók Szövetsége. The song was released as the album's lead single on October 5, 2010, by Jive Records gaining both critical and commercial success, being acclaimed by most music critics and described as a party anthem, and reaching the top-ten in several countries, including the United States, where it became her third number-one single. In 2011, "Raise Your Glass" was ranked at number thirteen on the "Top 40 Year End Chart" based on Mediabase. [2] So What” also happens to be a very good song, so that was probably also helpful to Pink. None of the other songs on Pink’s Funhouse album hit anywhere near as hard as “So What,” and it’s a little disorienting to be listening to Greatest Hits… So Far!!! when a non-hit like “I Don’t Believe You” pops up. (Like a lot of that era’s greatest-hits collections, Greatest Hits… So Far!!! is way too long. Pink would’ve absolutely crushed in the “10 song greatest-hits album that you buy on cassette at a gas station” days.) But Pink toured Funhouse hard, and she became a kind of pop-music road dog, an arena-sized act whose fortunes didn’t necessarily depend on arbitrary pop-chart placements or the vagaries of the album cycle.

Working mainly with Linda Perry on Missundazstood, Pink wanted to showcase a different side to herself. "In the beginning I just said, 'What do you feel?' and [Pink] would just sit behind the piano and sing," Perry recalled. Away from the record studio, Pink's life was also evolving. She married her boyfriend, Motocross star Carey Hart, in Costa Rica, after proposing to him during one of his races. But like her parents' marriage, Pink's union with Hart proved to be tumultuous, and just two years after they exchanged vows, the couple separated. Her fifth album, Funhouse (2008), drew from the raw emotions she was feeling from her separation. It also proved to be a huge commercial success, debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard chart, and inspiring a wild, worldwide tour that featured the artist performing blindfolded and—in some instances—singing upside-down on a trapeze.Has P!nk really been around long enough to have a greatest hits album? In fact, she has. She’s been around 10 years already, actually, in which time she’s moved an impressive 34 million albums worldwide. Of course, with a career that's lasted nearly two decades, there's bound to be a few stories to tell. So, we've done our best Angela Lansbury impression and done some investigating into the surprising stories behind her biggest hits… In August 2017 Pink unveiled a new single, "What About Us." It was the first release from her seventh studio album, Beautiful Trauma, which shot to the top of the Billboard 200 upon its release in October. The momentum continued into 2018, with the pop star performing at the Grammys in late January and singing the national anthem at Super Bowl LII a few days later. 'Hurts 2B Human'

As with most of the album, Pink wasn't afraid to get personal. "I don't know how to keep my own secrets," she said. "I can keep other people's secrets. … It's hard, after the fact, when everybody knows everything about you, and you're like, 'Damn, I shouldn't have said that.' But I don't think about it at the time. I think it's good because the deeper inside you go the more you're related to somebody else, because life is life – everybody goes through the same things."

In a nutshell, P!nk salutes everyone who flaunts convention, anyone who refuses to submit to the status quo: “So raise your glass if you are wrong in all the right ways,” she commands. P!nk styles herself as a leader in this misfit rebellion, adding, “All my underdogs/We will never be anything but loud/And nitty-gritty, dirty little freaks.”Trust, Gary (18 March 2011). "Weekly Chart Notes: Lady Gaga, 'Glee' Cast, Billy Joel". Billboard.com . Retrieved 20 March 2017. Raise Your Glass,” like Kesha’s “ We R Who We R” and another song that’ll appear in this column very soon, doesn’t have any explicit political message. Instead, it’s all about partying, drinking, and having a good time. “Raise Your Glass” positions those activities as pure solidarity. We, the people enjoying the song, are the “underdogs,” and we’re going to do everything in our power to stay happy. That’s not even a particularly empowering message, but the song hits with the same fizzy precision as the other love-yourself songs that were all over the radio at the time, and it presses the same buttons. Obviously with Missundazstood, Pink was mining into the darkest parts of her life, and no song delved deeper than 'Family Portrait'. While the album's first single, 'Let's Get The Party Started', was a mission statement of a lead single, it was the album's second cut, 'Don't Let Me Get Me' that would become a blueprint for Pink's subsequent career: autobiographical songs filled with attitude.
