Okay, I admit it...I'm thirty-something, and I REALLY like Pink's music. I mean, let's face it, her voice is wonderful! I loved most of the songs on "Can't Take Me Home", and I even love more of the songs on "Missundaztood". My favorites on this cd are "Don't Let Me Get Me", "Just Like A Pill", "18 Wheeler", "Misery", "Dear Diary", "Lonely Girl", "Numb", and "My Vietnam"...ohhh forgedda 'bout it, ALL the songs on this cd are good! Of course, I was awakened by the poignant lyrics in the song "Family Portrait" which I have to say, I admire Pink for singing and putting on this cd. It's sad, brutally honest, and every parent in this world should listen to these lyrics as if they were sung by their own child. But thankfully, that's the only song on here that makes me want to cry inside. The rest are bluesy, jazzy, rock/pop sensations that just make you want to listen to them over, and over, and over, and over. Get the point?! Go ahead, buy this cd, you will not be sorry you added it to your collecion. And to Pink, if you ever read this - Keep up the good work girl! (and take care of that voice of yours, it's Golden!)

I've liked Pink since I first saw her in that terrific video with the motorcycle, and I think she's quite a talent.
Her performances always capture my attention, she has a growing gift for songwriting, a unique singing style, and I just love that little wobble in her voice.

This CD has its ups and downs...I can live without the first 3 tracks, but it also has some exceptional ones.
With "Get the Party Started" and "Respect", Pink is at her brassy-sassy best, and "Misery", a duet with Steven Tyler, is a down home bluesy number that really works well.

The gems on this CD to my ears are "Family Portrait" (writen by Pink and Scott Storch), which is a really moving piece that I don't think could be sung better by anybody, I like "Eventually" (written by Pink and Linda Perry) more with each hearing (nice lyrics), and "Gone to California" (Pink and Perry again) is great. Her phrasing on this song is superb, and there's the added bonus of a jazzy A-1 sax solo by Jimmy Z, and David Siegel on organ adds a lot to it too.

These three songs are some of the slower ones on this CD, and show a lot of artistry. Out of the current crop of young singers, I wouldn't be surprised if Pink is the one we'll be listening to 10 years from now.

I've read several reviews here that made me laugh. People who take every lyric literally should not buy this album. If you buy the album solely to hear "Get the Party Started" you may be disappointed. This is not a Britney/Nsync catchy pop album to choreograph dance routines to! It is, however, an indepth look into the soul of an artist that isn't afraid to be herself. Pink takes the road less traveled with this album. Unlike "Get the Party Started, most of the songs are deeply introspective. "Just Like A Pill", one of my faves on the album, is lyrically outstanding and one of the best songs I've heard in a long time. ... Although Pink attempts to express herself in Missundaztood, she is not vulgar or crude. Other ultrahighlights(since the entire album is a highlight) include the anti-conformist "Don't let me get me", "Family Portrait",and the Steven Tyler-Pink duet "Misery". Although I loved Pink's last album, I would have to say that this is a step forward for her. I recommend picking up a copy of Missundaztood. It is light years away from the ... manufactured pop albums released in the past few years.

Well, we've all heard "Don't let me Get me", "Get the Party Started", and "Just like a Pill" on the radio, and they are great songs! After hearing "Just like a Pill" (How did SHE know my ex-boyfriend??) I had to go buy this CD. And I'm stingy, I don't spend money on just anything! What I discovered when I listened this CD is that Pink is much more versatile than I gave her credit for. She's a very talent singer, and she shows her diversity with songs that'll make you cry (Family Portrait, and Lonely Girl), songs that'll make you stand up and cheer (Respect, 18 wheeler, and Eventually), songs that'll make you wonder how she ever got into your mind like that (My Vietnam, and Dear Diary) and songs that you just can't help but sing (Misery, Don't let Me get Me, and Just like a Pill). She shines on "Misery", and her vocals are just incredible, but my favorite is "My Vietnam" because I feel her pain...and I know exactly what she means. Buy this CD, and develop a deeper respect for Pink, you'll not regret it!
