There's a rule in commercial pop: don't bite the hand that feeds you. Translation? If you're getting love on TRL, it's best leaving well enough alone and tinkering only slightly with the sound that pays your bills. So you have to give Pink a whole heap of credit. The Philly-raised songbird may have made her rep with infectious and rugged pop-R&B hits like "There You Go" and the remake of "Lady Marmalade," but like the fuchsia coif she once sported, that sound is gone. In its place is a more driving alt-rock attack, liberally laced with some late-night blues and heartfelt lyrics that, while they sometimes come off like diary entries (the simplistic bon mot "Your pain is painful" in "Family Portrait"), are clearly Pink's thoughts, as opposed to words someone put in her mouth. Helping Pink express her inner Alanis are Dallas Austin, who produced the insistent rocker "18 Wheeler," and former 4 Non Blonde Linda Perry, who Pink has resurrected from one-hit-wonder status. Mixing up thumping beats, ("Get the Party Started"), with folksy confessionals, Pink's potent vocals and her honest determination make this a risk worth hearing. --Amy Linden

Latest album is much better.......2007-06-28

I LOVE Pink!! The first album I bought was the latest one - "I'm Not Dead", and I love it. So I decided to investigate her earlier work. While I am glad I have "Missundaztood", I didn't find it as compelling as her latest work. Good to see where she has come from though.

understood and admired.......2007-06-12

what a sharp lady...love her latest cd...so thought I'd give her older, breakthrough cd a try...great sound. fresh and original collection. smart, sassy, interesting, sophisticated but fun. love the lyrics. love the variety of different musical styles. pink is cool, and honest and real. and she makes fantastic, memorable tunes....already a classic

One of my favorite albums of all time. She is an amazing songwriter. .......2007-03-26

Not only is Pink an amazing singer, but her lyrics are soo deep and personal. I love people who write about the sad times because a lot of people needs to hear something they can relate to. Family Potrait speaks to a lot of people, including my brother, who overhead the song and keeps requesting me to replay track 7. The whole album is a work of art so it's hard to choose, but if I had to choose, my favorites are Don't let me get me, Just Like a Pill, Family Potrait and Lonely Girl. Pink's voice is soo raw and real that you can actually feel the pain in her voice. Once you listen to this album, you will want hear more. So I will go ahead and let you know that her third album is Try This and her fourth, which is her best thus far is "I'm Not Dead". So please give this album a chance. Pink is a real artist and she will be around for a long time because she is true to herself.

This is Pink's first album to my knowledge. It has some raw studio tape footage that is cute and rough. I loved it. The segments give a good hint of what this ballsy little girl is about, and a preview of the bold, strong woman she became. She has fun with this release and you get to hear it. It is cool to listen to the inside track banter between Pink and the recording engineer. She is a force to be reckoned with; and a sweet lady all in one.

Pink.......2006-12-31

I kind of like this CD. I don't listen to it as much anymore for some reason, but I think I'm overdue to listen to it again. One of my favorite songs on this album is "respect" which talks about how girls should act around guys and how they should not let boys push them around any time the boy thinks it's convenient for them "no freebies in the limosouine that's not what it's about. let 'em know just what to do give it up he won't call you respect is just a minimum, go on girl and get you some" Another song about not letting men push girls around that I really like is "can't get me down". Which talks about getting ready to face the day and anything that might come one's way. I love encouraging songs like that... they really help you face your problems in life. I don't like to many of the songs on here because of the swearing content but I do listen to "Mizundastood" constantly. She only says one swear word in the song but I don't mind. Otherwise I avoid songs on here that have swearing on them. I like this CD otherwise... but if you're under sixteen, I wouldn't recommend it because of the swearing. I forgot to add that another one of my favorite songs is "Don't Let Me Get Me".

Customer Reviews:

Good Cd.......2003-07-25

This second album has Pink do a 360 from her last album to a pop rock album as opposed to her "There You Go" , "Most Girls" , "You Make Me Sick" album, now here she is singing stronger tunes about her life and people around her that she just doesnt wanna deal with. This is a great cd to listen to when you are mad at someone or do not wanna deal with problems especially when you are angry. "Like A Pill", "Get The Party Started" , "Don't Let Me Get Me" , and "Family Portrait" are some of the highlights on this album. The DVD is fun too, it has live performances which surprised me becasue i did not know she could sing that well and two bonus videos. I admit in my "Don't Let Me Get Me" video loses part of the sound near the beggining of the song as if the sound drops. Other than that this is a great buy for your money. The DVD alone is also sold if you already have the album, as a DVD single.

Amazing!.......2003-01-10

Pink's sophomore album "Missundaztood" showcases her troubled life growing up. The result? A great pop/light rock CD that shows she's not a manufactured, cookie-cutter pop star.

In "Family Portrait," she talks about the fights her parents had when she was younger and surprisingly, it's a very good and meaningful song with a cool beat. "Misery" features legendary Aerosmith rocker Steven Tyler. He definitely adds to this blues/jazz type song. "18 Wheeler" is my favorite. It's about telling someone you can hurt me, put me down and "run over me with your 18 wheeler truck," but I'll just get right back up. It really has a positive message. The first single from this album, "Get The Party Started," is a cool dance track, but if it's played over and over, it can get a bit annoying. "Don't Let Me Get Me" is about not liking who you are and how sometimes you wish you could be someone else. "Just Like A Pill" is awesome! It's my second favorite track on the record.

Overall, "Missundaztood" is a wonderful album because Pink wrote all of the songs on here (with the exception of "Get the Party Started," "Lonely Girl" and "Misery") and she only sings about stuff she's dealt with in life. It's a lot different from her 2000 debut, "Can't Take Me Home" because it was mostly pop/R&B music. This time, Pink does it all -- rock, R&B, some pop and even blues.

This limited edition version of the album makes it even better. You get the CD and then you get a bonus DVD with Pink's videos for "Family Portrait" and "Don't Let Me Get Me" and two performances ("Numb" and "Family Portrait").

You won't believe how good this is..........2003-01-06

...you really won't. The dance floor anthem, "Get The Party Started" in no way prepares you for the power and breadth of this album. Don't mistake this effusiveness for fan worship. This is genuinely a terrific album. You get the feeling you're watching an artist stretch, take a few risks, and just hit one out of the park. It's easy to see teen pop fans liking a few tunes on this record, but I think the modern rock, "Red Hot Chili Peppers"-type fan would be surprised at how much they would enjoy this record. Many of these songs seriously rock, and her lyrics often have an Eminem-like immediacy and veracity to them.
The extra DVD is pure gravy, with similarly impressive videos. You should buy this for the album, and consider the DVD as dessert.

This is Great!.......2002-12-28

I really love this Cd. The songs are really great and I love them. I really enjoy listening to every song on the album, which is great and a rare find. I bought this Cd knowing two of the songs from the radio, and was surprised by how great it is. A must have for everyone.

No Missunderstanding Here.......2002-12-25

Pink has broke out of her old album and shown her fans a deeper side to herself with this new rocking CD. Songs like Mean Green Lets get this party started are two of the best songs on the CD. If your looking for a deeper song then Family Portrait is the song to tune in to. The song deals with divorce and the feelings going along with it. My personal fav from the CD is Family Portrait. Great CD, all the songs are golden. Pink has shown her true colors and boy are they nice!

Album Description

Although she was initially viewed as yet another face in the late-'90s crowd of teen pop acts, Pink quickly showed signs of becoming one of the rare artists to transcend and outgrow the label. This 2 CD set features her debut album Can't Take Me Home, and the follow up Missundaztood. BMG. 2005.

A great buy but slightly disappointing.......2006-04-30

This 2 cd set contains the Germany releases on Pink's first 2 albums 1. "Can't take me home" and 2. "Missundaztood". It is a great buy because it is inexpensive and you get 3 bonus tracks you won't get on the US versions 1. "There you go" Remix 2. "Most girls" Remix 3. "Catch 22". "Can't take me home" is slightly disappointing because the word "S#!+" is used on the song "There you go". It is censored out of the song and the remix on the cd. Otherwise, It is a great buy

5 Stars for Value.......2006-02-18

I was thrilled when I saw this double pack. Mainly it was because this costs less than the Can't Take Me Home album alone AND it comes with the M!SSUNDAZTOOD album, too. The two albums are also the UK import CD so they come with bonus songs. M!SSUNDAZTOOD has an extra song called "Catch-22" and Can't Take Me Home has two remixed songs: "There You Go (Sovereign Mix)" and "Most Girls (X-Men Vocal Mix)". I am completely satisfied with these CDs and BELIEVE ME when I say it is WELL worth the extra wait.
