Does anyone else think this could have been the single to save Try This? It's like a better version of Just Like A Pill and the lyrics are great.

I don't think anything could have saved "Try This". I didn't hear a single track on the album that would have done any better than the first two singles.

I like it, although I doubt it would have had a major effect.

I thought "Catch Me While I'm Sleeping" would save this album. So, it came as a huge shock when it completely bombed.
The only songs that I like from the album are "God Is A DJ", "Catch Me While I'm Sleeping" and "Last To Know".
I guess "Last To Know" is the 4th single from this album, even though "Catch Me..." flopped here too. But, I do hear "Last To Know" a lot on CHUM-FM. In fact, it's #3 on their top 30 countdown.
"Save My Life" wouldn't have saved the album. And, I hate it.

I love the whole album. I seem to love lots of underrated stuff. But, I like this track. I think that she should have released Humble Neighboorhoods first, I think that would have taken off pretty well. Trouble and God Is A Dj seem like 3rd or 4th single material to me.

Actually, I DID think this song could save the album. Everyone I played the album for agreed that this was by far the best song.
*shrug* I guess we'll never know.

Not if it sounds like "Just Like A Pill". I've had enough of her songs that sound like that. I hope she goes back to the style of "There You Go" and "Most Girls".

I really liked the Try This album. Not as much as Mizundastood, but I thought that it was a good album. "Walk Away" was the song that I think would've saved the album. Too late for it now, but had that been released right after "God Is A DJ", I think it would've gone at least top 10.

I don't. I hope her next album is dance. ... Isn't that basically what her first album is? |

No, it was R&B influenced pop. So by dance do you mean like "Get This Party Started"? Because if you do, I hope she never goes back to that style. |

Pink isn't like Madonna, she's not the type who'll ever do an album that's pre-dominately Dance genre. I'd like to see a heavier Rock album from her, like a solo version of Karen O, w/out as much screaming though. |

Yuck. Pink + Madonna = Feel Good Time. I hope she does dance too, but more like dance/rock (No Doubt in their Rock Steady era, and Garbage). I also hope there are some more soulful ballads because the ones on Try This kicked ass. |

I think her first album was more dance than anything since. Of her singles since, only "Get the Party Started' could be considered dance IMO. Maybe you could characterize her early style as R&B, but by its nature, R&B is usually more danceable than rock or pop is, which is what her songs more recently have basically been. "Most Girls" was both soulful and danceable.

I really like this song. This is my favorite track from "Try This", after "Waiting For Love". P!nk's voice shows so much emotion...gotta love it.  |

Great song, great record. People like to rag on Try This simply because it didn't have a surefire hit on it, but I like to consider it an enjoyable album.
