I don't get Pink. But she does put on a good show. But then, Cirque du Soleil do as well and I'm not interested in that circus either.

Because clearly (and bizarrely) they do.

The Pink phenomena genuinely puzzles me...


Likewise mate, I just don't 'get' her and the hype that goes with her. But then again, I'm not into popstars trying to come across as having attitude and thinking they're rockstars.


Why do you have to "get" her, or any artist for that matter?

I'm not a fan of her music, but call it what you want and like it or leave it. Always puzzles me with music, how people who like something you dont must be wrong.

I knew LL would chime in. As sure as something about some old mob who sang something about a Milky Way or something or other. ;)


Booney Booney Booney. Surely you're not suggesting The Church are punk are you? ;) Nice guys and all that, but not punks. :)

I dunno, the Pink phenomena, much like the Lady Gaga one, for some reason has completely passed me by. There's a song about being a Rockstar or something I'm vaguely aware of. I listen to a wide range of music every spare minute I get, but she doesn't get played on the radio I listen to, isn't written about in the music mags I read, doesn't feature in the TV I watch...hell, I'm a teacher and I talk music with kids all the time. I don't recall them ever talking about Pink.

One Direction on the other hand, now there's a band ;

Those bored middle-aged housewives have a-lot to answer for.
