Music and visuals with a message…

A Personal Note From P!nk:

I’m sure my newest video for “F**kin’ Perfect” will be much like some of my other videos, which basically means I expect it will ruffle some feathers.
My favorite books, art pieces, films, and music, always have something jarring about them. I want art to make me think.
In order to do that, it may piss me off, or make me uncomfortable. That promotes awareness and change, or at least some discussion.
That is my intention. (more…)

I’m not a big fan of the award shows, so The 2010 Grammy Awards came and went without much interest from me. While I was excited for the numerous ‘indie’ artists that were nominated, I was also cautiously optimistic that any of them would win. Understanding the nature of the industry, the politics, NARAS and who actually votes…. the results were, well.. predictable.

Anyway, congratulations to all of the winners and look for The Foreign Exchange, Lalah Hathaway, Eric Roberson et. al to do big things in 2010 and be back… with some hardware. The highlight of the night (from the little I did see), aside from the Michael Jackson tribute, was Pink’s performance. Incredible. Yes, it was similar to an awards show performance from last year, but who cares? Nobody complains when your favorite non-singing singer, ‘sings’ the same tired song, in one position, off key with absolutely no stage presence. No names required.

Great performance from her Pink: Funhouse Tour – Live in Australia [Blu-ray] DVD.

Keep up with the one and only Pink on twitter or on the web.
