From LoveToKnow Music
Event though she denies it is, the song by Pink, So What sounds like it's about her divorce from Carey Hart.
About Pink
Pink, born Alecia Moore, was born in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Her father dabbled in music a bit, playing the guitar and singing songs to his daughter. When Pink discovered her love for music at a very young age, she began having rock star dreams and started out working toward achieving that goal. In high school, Pink was in a local band called Middleground, eventually the band broke up after losing a "Battle of the Bands" contest to another local rival band. Shortly thereafter, Pink began performing solo, at the age of 14. Two years later, when she was sixteen, Pink signed a record deal with LaFace records as part of the group Choice. The group never released an album and broke up a short time later, but Pink stayed on with LaFace as a solo artist. Prior to the release of her debut album, Pink stayed busy singing back up vocals for Diana Ross, 98 Degrees, Kenny Lattimore and Tevin Campbell.
Musical Influences
Pink's musical influences are diverse and include:
- Janis Joplin
- Bob Marley
- Bad Religion
- Mary J. Blige
- Don McLean
- Tupac Shakur
- The Notorious B.I.G.
- Steven Tyler
Solo Success
In 2000, the debut single, There You Go, from Pink's first album Can't Take Me Home was released to massive success. The song reached number seven on the Billboard charts and the album went on to multi-platinum success. Although Pink found success with the R&B feel to earlier albums like Can't Take Me Home and the follow up M!ssundaztood, she soon wanted to break free from the Rhythm and Blues genre and now her music has more of a rock feel to it.
Pink's Funhouse
In 2008, Pink released her fifth studio album Funhouse with So What as the planned debut single. The song was slated for release in mid-August of 2008, but was leaked on the Internet a week prior to it's release and began getting a lot of radio air time. When officially released, the track debuted at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100 charts and went on to reach number one. So, what about those lyrics.
Pink So What Lyrics
She can deny it all she wants, but the lyrics (and the music video) to So What are so clearly about her marriage and divorce from Carey Hart. Take a look at a sampling of Pink's So What lyrics and judge for yourself:
- I guess I just lost my husband/I don't know where he went/So I'm gonna drink my money/I'm not gonna pay his rent.
- I'm all right/I'm just fine/and you're a tool.
- I'm gonna get in trouble/my ex will start a fight.
In interviews she's given regarding the song, Pink claims that while some parts of the song are a reflection of real life events, she still stands by the fact that the entire song is not a short story about her marriage and recent divorce from Hart.

Pink So What MP3
MP3's are pretty easy to find, to make it even easier, here are some links:
When Pink released her first album, she was competing with the likes of Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. Over the years, she has fought hard to win the respect of critics and fans alike by making music that didn't "pigeon hole" her into one category. Now, along with Aguilera, Pink is a successful, Grammy Award winner and seems to be in a category far removed from artists like Spears and Simpson.
