Look what we have here!

For her long over due greatest hits package, cleverly entitled Greatest Hits with a quirky, edgy So Far!!! tagged on the end to correctly mark the artist as 'out there', complete with not one, not two but three exclamation points, Salmon P!nk has collaborated with long time collaborator of old Max Martin to fashion a high-energy (but not Hi-NRG, no, certainly not), up-beat anthem of sorts. It's a very good song, and interesting to hear Shocking P!nk return to the stand-alone, unadulterated pop single she has had so much success with in her career. Not that there was anything remotely wrong with the concept spin of Funhouse - it is this writer's personal belief that Funhouse is the finest LP of her career - but before said album Cerise P!nk had pumped out many-a thumping, no-strings-attached amazing pop tune. There are some lolo moments, like opening the ditty with a fabulous English accent, the bit where she 'messes up' before the final massive chorus, and oh, this is the funniest bit, when she says "TOO SCHOOL FOR COOL". Hahahahaha. Did you see what she did there? She swapped two words around in a well known idiomatic phrase. She's amazing. Listen here.

PS - the name of the song is "Raise Your Glass". Soz for not mentioning earlier.
