Pink – Missundaztood (New Vinyl)

NEW DOUBLE LP

New sealed copy. 2025 repress.

Missundaztood, Pink’s second studio album, was released on November 20, 2001, by Arista Records. After the success of her debut album, Pink sought more creative control and a rawer, rock-inspired sound. She collaborated with Linda Perry, Dallas Austin, Damon Elliott, Marti Frederiksen, and Scott Storch, and featured guest appearances by Perry, Scratch, Steven Tyler, and Richie Supa.

The album, produced at various studios in 2001, reflects Pink’s introspective songwriting, exploring themes of personal insecurities, loneliness, self-identity, and family problems. Unlike her previous upbeat R&B album, Missundaztood is a pop rock record that incorporates elements of blues, metal, hip hop, new wave, and disco. Despite initial concerns about commercial failure, Pink fought for her vision and convinced Arista to release the album.

Pink promoted her album Missundaztood with televised performances and her 2002 Party Tour. Four singles supported the album, with three peaking in the US Billboard Hot 100: “Get the Party Started”, “Don’t Let Me Get Me”, and “Just Like a Pill”. A global success, it reached number one in Ireland and the top five in several other countries. Certified five times platinum by the RIAA, it sold 12 million copies worldwide and is Pink’s best-selling album.

Critics praised Missundaztood as a significant progression from Can’t Take Me Home and an artistic breakthrough for Pink. The album’s emotional depth and style blending, along with Pink’s vocal performances and songwriting, received widespread acclaim. At the 45th Annual Grammy Awards, it was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album. In retrospect, critics have praised Pink for reinvention and increased creative control, calling Missundaztood distinguished and remarkable.
