Sometimes, after seeing a video, you like a song a million times more. This is one of those instances. I love Pink because not only can she sing her ass off, but she doesn’t take herself very seriously, either. “Raise Your Glass”, the first single from her upcoming Greatest Hits album, has a clip that follows in the tradition of videos like “Stupid Girls” and “So What”.

I was more than a little disappointed that someone who had such a strong stance about artistic integrity would pull a sellout move and align herself with the hot rapper of the moment, ostensibly just to have a hit single. Having heard “Jump in […]
