Untitled

Funhouse is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Pink, released by LaFace Records worldwide in October 24, 2008. On this album, Pink again works with Al Clay, Billy Mann, MachoPsycho, Max Martin, and Butch Walker while working with new producers such as Danja, Eg White, and No Doubt bassist Tony Kanal. Inspired by her divorce from motorcross racer Carey Hart, the lyrical content deals with themes of loss, heartbreak, anger and resentment. Musically, the album takes on different styles from blues rock to R&B to electro.

The album was critically lauded by contemporary music critics, praising Pink's lyrical depth on the more somber songs as well as her ability to personalize the product of her collaborations with other acclaimed songwriters and producers. Funhouse achieved commercial success across Europe and Oceania, reaching the top five sixteen countries and number one in six, including Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. The album peaked at number two in the United States, becoming Pink's highest charting album there until her sixth studio album The Truth About Love (2012) reached number one in the country. Funhouse received over fifteen platinum certifications, among which eight are multiplatinum.

Seven singles were spawned from Funhouse. The lead single "So What" became Pink's most successful single worldwide, topping the charts in eleven countries, while singles "Sober" and "Please Don't Leave Me" were moderate successes internationally. Later singles Bad Influence, "Funhouse", and "I Don't Believe You" were modest successes in Europe and Oceania while "Glitter in the Air" performed well in North America. In support of Funhouse, Pink performed at several venues and awards and embarked on two world tours, the Funhouse Tour and the Funhouse Tour: Live in Australia.

Background edit

Pink's previous studio album, I'm Not Dead (2006), was considered a career re-starter following the commercial disappointment of Try This (2003). The album debuted at number six on the Billboard 200. Buoyed by the success of the singles "Stupid Girls", "Who Knew", and "U + Ur Hand", the album lasted 88 weeks on the album chart. I'm Not Dead was also successful internationally, achieving top ten positions across European territories. The album experienced major success in Australia, where the album went number one and was certified eleven times platinum.

During the time between I'm Not Dead and Funhouse, Pink and her husband Carey Hart separated after two years of marriage.

Recording and development edit

Pink wrote and recorded approximately 30 to 35 songs for Funhouse. "It's like getting rid of your children: 'I like that one too, but I'm going to let that one die,'" she said of choosing the album's tracks. "The good thing now is that different countries want extra songs and B-sides, so there's always a home for the other kids."[2] Pink traveled internationally to write and record the album, working with Eg White in London and with Max Martin in Stockholm. "It was really good to get out of my house and get away from my life. No distractions. No phones", Pink said of her sessions outside the U.S.

Music edit

Style and lyrics edit

Barry Walters of Spin noted that most of the album "reveals a conflicted sincerity that both complicates and sharpens her lyrics, while bringing out genuine rock rawness in her typically slick collaborators."[3]

Production wise, the album boasts productions from Max Martin, Billy Mann and Butch Walker, who also produced her fourth studio album I'm Not Dead (2006). Noted for working with different producers on each of her studio albums, critics attributed her collaborations with past-time producers and songwriters to the success of I'm Not Dead, which revitalized Pink career at the time of its release.[4]

Songs edit

  • Funhouse opens with the song "So What", a punk-rock song that has been described as swaggering.[5]
  • The sixth track, "Bad Influence", features reggae influences and lyrics that celebrate Pink's leadership skills.[6]
  • Following "Bad Influence" is the title track, which has production characterized by "vintage funk licks, stiff rock riffs, squiggly synths, and poisonous Pink frosting".[6]
  • "Crystal Ball", the album's eighth track,
  • "Mean", the ninth track, country rock[5], blues inspired[7], Aerosmith style guitar hook[4].

Funhouse received generally positive reviews from professional music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted mean rating out of 100 to reviews from music critics, the album received an average score of 69, denoting "generally positive reviews".[8] Chris Williams of Entertainment Weekly noted that "Pink's true gift is as a musical androgynist — blurring the line between rocker and pop star, or between mourner and celebrant" and wrote that "The sadder Pink gets, the better the big, rocky roar that characterizes much of the disc sounds."[11] The Boston Globe writer Joan Anderson lauded Pink's ability to make any song her own and to add "piercing tenderness" to her ballads, but was critical of her tendency to stick with standard sonics, noting that "she continues to rely on standard-issue hitmakers Max Martin (Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys), Billy Mann (Ricky Martin, Take That), Butch Walker (Fall Out Boy) and Kara DioGuardi (Kelly Clarkson) for her musical direction."[6] Kerri Mason of Billboard praised the album as "confident" and heralded Pink as "the world's most real-deal pop star", highlight her ability to make the music produced by acclaimed songwriters and producers her own.[5]

Stephen Thomas Erlewine, senior editor of AllMusic, noted that Funhouse "only really clicks when Pink abandons any pretense of mourning her relationship and just cuts loose with galumphing rhythms and schoolyard taunts".[9] Slant Magazine writer Jonathan Keefe compared Funhouse to Kelly Clarkson's album My December (2007), also inspired by dark themes, and noted "If the album doesn't always make that point in its words, it consistently makes that point by being as fun a pop record as Pink's albums tend to be."[16] Tracy Garraud of Vibe called the album "more haunting than amusing" while Christian Hoard of Rolling Stone opined that "Funhouse would be more fun if Pink went easier on the bad-love songs."[19][15] Writing for The Guardian, Caroline Sullivan deemed the Funhouse a "solid album" and made several comparisons to Iggy Pop, but was not impressed by the ballads.[12] Charlie Gilmour, writing for The Observer, commented that "Her new album lays into her ex-husband with devilish choruses and potent hooks, notably on the spunky 'One Foot Wrong' and 'Funhouse'."[20]
