Born Alecia Beth Moore, the singer better known as P!nk has been a fixture in the rock/pop scene for the last decade, known for her witty wordplay, female-empowering lyrics, and plain bad-ass rock stylings. She also trained as a gymnast, and stole the 2010 Grammy's while performing a mind-blowing aerial routine while singing "Glitter In The Air." She manages to marry drama and music in her performance and videos.
The latest album, The Truth About Love, is more great music. "Try" is one of the few songs she did not write herself, and the video is hypnotic, beautiful, disturbing, and powerful. What I think I like most about P!nk is that she is a musical artist with an emphasis on ART. She creates music with subject matter that elicits an emotional and intellectual response from the listener (and in this video, the viewer.)
