Pink shares how her new album, "Trustfall" - her ninth - explores the loss of her father, the challenges of marriage and "the roller coaster of life."

As far as the kids go, I am meticulous and an overthinker [and I observe](https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/parenting/2019/09/08/singer-pink-defends-her-kids-husband-and-other-moms-dont-mess/2167430001/).

But (the song) was a direct response to one day I was on the beach with my children and I was in a bathing suit and I think he’s going to be a DJ in Vegas and get in a lot of trouble. (Laughs.) Can you imagine being my husband? I will not be the villain in your story. My priorities are to live an authentic human experience and be completely transparent about it and to love and cuddle with my kids as long as they’ll let me. Everything feels like it requires so much trust and I feel like we’re falling backwards and we don’t know when the ground is coming. I lost my dad (in August 2021) and eight months later I lost someone very, very, very close to me. One of my favorite lines is, “You’ll watch me as I make my mistakes.” The album was a three-year process. As she puts it, the new record is about “the roller coaster of life.”

The singer has been moving away musically from her cartoonish persona but it means this album feels oddly transitional.

Never Gonna Not Dance Again is a disco cousin of Justin Timberlake’s Can’t Stop the Feeling! It’s a grieving piano ballad that appears to be addressed to her father, who died in 2021. Wesley Schultz from The Lumineers shares lead vocals on Long Way to Go, with moody piano chords and military drums adding to the drama, while the Söderberg sisters from Swedish folk band First Aid Kit deliver pretty harmonies on the acoustic Kids in Love.

P!nk review, Trustfall: Pop artist's mix of dance-pop, folk and rock ... (The Independent)

Outside of a few gems, the US artist's ninth album tumbles down into a spiral of forgettable dance-pop, throwbacks and oddly chosen collaborations.

P!nk has always chopped and changed; her best albums are usually ones that make a distinctive shift from the one before. The production is lush and bold, melding a charisma-filled brass section with jubilant percussion, layered harmonies and a short but sweet sax solo. “Will you save me a place with all those pearls of wisdom?” she asks. “Yeah I’ll make some mistakes and you’ll watch me as I live them/ Til I’m through, ’til I’m with you.” Just look at last year’s tour, a carnival of flashing lights and giant balloons that culminated each night in the US pop artist somersaulting through the air while suspended on wires. P!nk does best when she makes and breaks her own rules.
