PINK - GET THE PARTY STARTED

I'm Comin' Up So You Better Get This Party Started
I'm Comin' Up So You Better Get This Party Started

Get This Party Started On A Saturday Night
Everybody's Waitin For Me To Arrive
Sendin' Out The Message To All Of My Friends
We'll Be Lookin Flashy In My Mercedes Benz
I Got Lotsa Style, Check My Gold Diamond Rings
I Can Go For Miles If You Know What I Mean

I'm Comin' Up So You Better Get This Party Started
(I'm Comin' Up, I'm Comin')
I'm Comin' Up So You Better Get This Party Started

Pumpin Up The Volume, Breakin Down To The Beat
Cruisin' Through The West Side, We'll Be Checkin' The Scene
Boulevard Is Freakin' As I'm Comin' Up Fast
I'll Be Burnin' Rubber, You'll Be Kissin' My Ass
Pull Up To The Bumper, Get Out Of The Car
License Plate Says Stunner #1 Superstar

I'm Comin' Up So You Better Get This Party Started
(I'm Comin' Up, You'd Better)
I'm Comin' Up So You Better Get This Party Started
(Get This Party Started)

Makin My Connection As I Enter The Room
Everybody's Chillin As I Set Up The Groove
Pumpin' Up The Volume With This Brand New Beat
Everybody's Dancin And Their Dancin' For Me
I'm Your Operator, You Can Call Anytime
I'll Be Your Connection To The Party Line

I'm Comin' Up So You Better Get This Party Started
(I'm Comin' Up, I'm Comin')
I'm Comin' Up So You Better Get This Party Started
(I'm Comin' Up, I'm Comin')
I'm Comin' Up So You Better Get This Party Started
(I'm Comin' Up, You'd Better)

Get This Party Started, Oh
Get This Party Started Right Now
Get This Party Started
Get This Party Started
Get This Party Started Right Now

This Earned A Grammy Nomination For Best Female Pop Vocal Performance But Lost To "Don't Know Why" By Norah Jones. The Album Was Also Nominated For Best Pop Vocal Album But Again Lost To Jones For "Come Away With Me".

The Music Video Was Shot In Los Angeles And Shows Pink Getting Ready For A Night Of Clubbing. Unfortunately, Her Car Runs Out Of Gas On The Way To The Club, So She And Her Friend Have To Steal A Couple Skateboards To Get There - Only To Be Refused Entry. Undeterred, They Use A Scaffold To Bring Them To The Top Of The Building So They Can Sneak In. Inside, Linda Perry Cameos As The Bartender.

Missundaztood Was A Reintroduction Of Sorts For Pink, Who Had Already Established A Musical Identity As An R&B/Dance-Pop Singer On Her Double-Platinum Debut, Can't Take Me Home. Ditching The R&B Influence In Favor Of Rock And Hip-Hop Was A Risky Move, But It Paid Off. Her Second Album Yielded Three Top 10 Singles And Sold 5 Million Copies In The Us. Pink Told Mtv Of The Release: "It's A Lot More Versatile, It's A Lot Less Contrived, It's A Lot More Me."

In 2002, Bally Total Fitness Designed An Exercise Program Based On The Choreography In The Video. The Intense Hip-Hop-Inspired Aerobics Routine Was Tough Even For Pink, Who Couldn't Finish The Hour-Long Session.
