"I'm Not Dead" is the fourth album by pop singer Pink, released in North America on April 4, 2006 (see 2006 in music); it was released a day earlier in most other territories. Pink worked with producers and songwriters Billy Mann, Josh Abraham, Max Martin, Luke Gottwald, Butch Walker and Mike Elizondo. The tracks range from the intrinsically personal to political. The album was originally titled "Long Way to Happy", after the song of the same name, but Pink changed her mind because she thought "I'm Not Dead" made a stronger statement that this was a comeback album.

The album yielded seven singles: "Stupid Girls", "Who Knew", "U + Ur Hand", "Nobody Knows", "Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)", "Dear Mr. President" and "'Cuz I Can". It was most successful in Australia, where it was certified nine times platinum and produced five Top 5 singles. The album was also certified platinum in the U.S. with more than 1.3 million copies sold, and more than 6 million worldwide.

Description

Pink said she titled the album "I'm Not Dead" because "It's about being alive and feisty and not sitting down and shutting up even though people would like you to"; [ [http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/07/12/earlyshow/main1795778.shtml "Pink: Singing With Dad Was 'Awesome'"] . CBS News. July 12 2006. Retrieved March 30 2007.] she said it came from "the awakening" and how "it felt good to feel again ... I turned twenty-five and I just kind of woke up and realized I have so much to learn, whereas before I thought I knew everything. That's definitely a huge part of that title."Kalow, Natalie. [http://www.generationq.net/articles/P!nk-Im-not-dead-Interview-00001.html "P!nk 'I'm not dead' Interview"] . GenerationQ. Retrieved May 31 2007.]

According to Pink, she did not expect to be very emotionally involved in the making of the album because the experience of making her last, "Try This" (2003), was "draining", but that she was "forced to be almost emotionally involved" by her collaborators, such as Billy Mann. "I guess I was just kind of at that place where I felt like I kind of had something to add to the world", she said. "I feel like there's a hole and I know how to fill it, people aren't talking trash anymore. I was just feeling really creative and really emotionally available again, and it came out great." According to her, she wrote more than forty songs for the album on "everything I could possibly think of."McLean, Craig. [http://news.independent.co.uk/people/profiles/article353445.ece "Pink: The outspoken pop star on fame and growing up"] . "The Independent". March 25 2006. Retrieved March 30 2007.]

Pink was inspired to write opening track "Stupid Girls", in which she deplores the lack of good role models for young girls while encouraging them to cultivate independence, after she noticed many such girls aspire to be like female pop icons, particularly those near her Los Angeles home. "There's a certain thing the world is being fed, and my point is there should be a choice", Pink said.Vineyard, Jennifer. [http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1521044/01182006/pink.jhtml "Pink's 'Stupid' New Video Features Fake Breasts, Fake 50 Cent"] . MTV News. January 18 2006. Retrieved October 22 2006.] She stated that "Who Knew" is about "the death of friendship",Vineyard, Jennifer. [http://www.mtv.com/bands/p/pink/news_feature_060220/ "Pink: Not Dead, Not Stupid"] . MTV News. February 17 2006. Retrieved September 22 2006.] as well as friends of hers who died as a result of drug overdoses. [Ellen, Barbara. [http://observer.guardian.co.uk/review/story/0,,1789742,00.html "Philly girl"] . "The Observer". June 4 2006. Retrieved March 23 2007.] The song is about several people.Vineyard, Jennifer.

The third song, "Long Way to Happy", is based on a poem about sexual abuse Pink wrote when she was thirteen years old. "I know a lot of people that have been abused and/or molested and/or fucked over by someone close to them. And I'm no exception. And that's that song", she said. The ballad "Nobody Knows" describes feelings that one can have but not show to the outside world, and Pink has named it the most vulnerable track on the album. [ [http://youtube.com/watch?v=UNUMFZw8ORo Making of Nobody Knows] ] "Dear Mr. President" is an open letter to the president of the United States, George W. Bush; the song's format is a series of rhetorical questions for the President, specifically pertaining to how he really feels about issues such as war, homosexuality, homelessness and drug abuse.

According to Pink, the sixth and title track, "I'm Not Dead", is her first "subtle" and "poetic" self-written song: "Usually it's very much more cartoon-y and blunt, the way I write songs. I don't really know diplomacy or subtlety." The song was inspired by how Pink and producer Billy Mann felt about the end of their working relationship: "We were scared to move on from each other, after seeing how much that little bit of time together changed us, and how scary change is." In "'Cuz I Can", Pink says she plays by her own rules boasts about her "bling", a contrast to the anti-consumerist content of "Stupid Girls". Referring to the song, she called herself "a walking contradiction" and "a hypocrite sometimes." [http://www.mtv.com/bands/p/pink/news_feature_060417/ "How Pink Got Her Groove Back"] . MTV News. April 17 2006. Retrieved March 30 2007.] This theme is echoed in "Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)", which deals with contradictory feelings about a relationship; Pink said "That's how I live my life. I'm a walking conflict." She called the song "a funny take on 'I love you' ... I get really cramped ... But, every girl needs her space".

"U + Ur Hand", the ninth track, is a kiss-off song addressed to a man who is trying to seduce Pink; it became a fan favorite before the release of the album, when it was leaked to the internet. Pink said of song such as "Runaway" that "It's been especially hard for [my parents] hearing me write about things they never knew about ... My mom's like, 'Were you really that angry? Was I really that in denial? Was I really that bad a parent?' 'No, Mom - you were great. You didn't try to run me over with your car. I made it up.' But by writing all of it down and sharing it with the world, I've broken with most of it." [McCormack, Neil. [http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/main.jhtml?xml=/arts/2006/03/30/bmpink30.xml "Colour me pink with rage"] . "The Telegraph". March 30 2006. Retrieved March 30 2007.] "The One That Got Away" is, as Pink puts it, "the classic 'Is this the one? Or is the grass really greener?'"Vineyard, Jennifer. [http://www.mtv.com/bands/p/pink/news_feature_060220/ "Pink: Not Dead, Not Stupid"] . MTV News. February 20 2006. Retrieved March 30 2007.]

Pink described track thirteen, "Conversations with My 13 Year Old Self", as a "huge therapy session" that addresses her "pissed-off, complicated" younger self. She said of writing the song, "I needed a hug, and I get it ... now. If I tried to hug my 13-year-old self, she'd try to kick my ass, and then she'd collapse and cry." "Fingers" is about her videotaping herself masturbating. She said she probably didn't need to add to the number of songs about masturbation, but she couldn't help herself. [Adams, Cameron. [http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,,21111498-5003421,00.html "Pink's true colours"] . "The Courier-Mail". January 25 2007. Retrieved March 30 2007.] The final song on the album, the hidden track "I Have Seen the Rain" was written by and features Pink's father, James T. Moore. He wrote it when he was a soldier in the Vietnam War, but according to Pink "it's still relevant today. It's a soldier's cry." She had always wanted to record it with him and learnt to harmonize with it. She said of its recording, "He was so nervous, it was the most adorable experience for a father and daughter to share."

Critical reception and awards

The album had a positive critical reception, receiving a 70/100 score on Metacritic. [ [http://www.metacritic.com/music/artists/pink/imnotdead Pink: I'm Not Dead (2006): Reviews ] ]

Before "Stupid Girls" was chosen as the album's lead single, videos were shot for it and "U + Ur Hand", which became the third single. Released in February – March 2006, "Stupid Girls" reached number thirteen on the U.S. "Billboard" Hot 100 — becoming Pink's biggest hit since 2002—and the top five in the UK and Australia. It was the subject of considerable discussion, with Pink attending "The Oprah Winfrey Show" to discuss what she called the "stupid girl epidemic"; in the song, she deplores the lack of good role models for girls while encouraging them to cultivate independence. The song was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance (see Grammy Awards of 2007).

"Who Knew" was released as the second single in May 2006 and initially failed to chart on the U.S. "Billboard" Hot 100, but it later debuted at number ninety-five in March 2007. It was re-released in the U.S. in June 2007, and had peaked at number nine by mid September. It reached the top ten in other countries, including Australia and the UK. The next single, "U + Ur Hand", took three months to chart on the Hot 100 and peaked at number nine in April 2007. It reached the top twenty across most of Europe and Australia during August – September 2006. The fourth single, "Nobody Knows", was released outside the U.S. in November and reached the top forty in the UK and Australia.

The song "Dear Mr. President" attracted publicity, and there was belief among fans that it would be released as a single, but Pink said she would not release "Dear Mr. President" as a single because she did not want people to think it was a publicity stunt. [Haddon, Cole. [http://www.browardpalmbeach.com/Issues/2006-07-20/music/music.html "Simple Girl"] . "Broward-Palm Beach New Times". July 20 2006.] In Belgium, an acoustic version of the song was released as a download single in late 2006, and it reached number one on the Ultratop chart. In the UK, "Dear Mr. President" was released as a download-only single with "Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)". It reached the UK top forty, also charting in the top five in Australia, where it became the fifth top five hit from "I'm Not Dead".

The seventh single, "'Cuz I Can", was released as a digital download in Australia, and it reached the top twenty on the digital tracks chart. [ [http://www.ariacharts.com.au/pages/charts_display.asp?chart=1DT40 Top 40 Digital Track Chart - Australian Record Industry Association ] ]

A DVD of a concert on this leg of the tour, "", was released in April 2007. In 2007, Pink returned to the U.S. to accompany Justin Timberlake on his FutureSex/LoveShow tour.

She began her sold-out Australian tour in April 2007, and additional dates were scheduled to meet high demand.Fact|date=January 2008 The Australian leg of the tour was set at a record-breaking thirty-five arena shows, selling around 307,000 tickets — it became the most successful arena tour in Australian history by a female artist in Australia.
