I don’t really listen to Pink very often but I do think her musical style has gotten better overtime. A friend from college sent me a couple of her songs a few years ago that I could really relate to. Today’s song is the same.
Try was released as a single in November of 2012 from Pink’s sixth album, The Truth About Love. It was written by Busbee and Ben West. It made the top ten in several countries including the United States, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Spain, Scotland, Germany, and Canada among others. It went to #1 in Australia and Slovakia.
The lyrics discuss taking risks in love no matter the consequence. I also think it describes dusting yourself off after a bad relationship and not letting it get the best of you.
Above is a live performance on X Factor in Australia.
Where there is desire, there is gonna be a flame. Where there is a flame, someone’s bound to get burned. But just because it burns doesn’t mean you’re gonna die. You’ve gotta get up and try, and try, and try.
