Review: Pink - U and Ur Hand9 September, 2006 — Stuart Brown

Pink's third song from her fourth album, U & Ur Hand, essentially boils down to two things: the usual in-your-face Pink 'attitude' (or should that be P!nk?), and cheap jokes about masturbation. Wait, third song? Fourth album? Isn't this sort of thing getting old yet?

OK, so the song is good - it has everything you'd want or expect, but there's something a little samey about it. Yes, you've still got all the usual Pink attitude, feisty singing and catchy lyrics - but it's been like this since M!ssundaztood, and not changed much since. Ironic, perhaps, that she changes her look several times in the video.

Part of me likes this song, it really does - but when mixed in with the rest of Pink's discography, you'd be hard pushed to remember what made it any good. Enjoy it now before it slides into obscurity.

Overall summary

Typically polished and catchy material from Pink, but we've heard all this before.

What next?More by Pink? More reviews? More pop?
