Why not raise your glass and listen to "Raise Your Glass" lyrics by Pink? Pink writes her own music so all of the brassiness you hear and love (or cringe at) usually comes directly from her own mind. Yes, she did get some help from Max Martin and Shellback (her producers) but there's no question that the R&B-punk superstar made the song her own when it was time to perform. This is the song she singled out for her first compilation album, "Greatest Hits... So Far!!!"
The song was the ten-year anniversary of her career and it earned widespread critical acclaim. It went straight to the top in the US and followed up "So What" nicely, becoming her second #1 solo hit. Because of the Raise Your Glass lyrics and So What Pink entered the elite group of female artists who have had the most top 10 hits. Her website states that the song has already sold nearly 10 million copies.
What is the song about? Pink states that Raise Your Glass lyrics celebrate the outcasts of society, that is, the "people who feel left out from the popular crowd." She explains her motivation stating, "I wanted to write a song about underdogs." The critics took note of her personal and motivational song and called it, according to About.com, "an anthemic celebration of personal uniqueness." Similar praise came from Digital Spy, Idolator and BBC Blog, along with other industry sources.
Pink also did a music video for Raise Your Glass and is a bit more pointed in its political commentary than the song. The video features celebratory images of gay marriage, as well as tolerance in religious, racial and special equality. The video also features nonhuman animal rights calls to action, with scenes of Pink saving a bull from a matador, and the image of a calf feeding on human milk (a protest of dairy consumption). Other non-politically charged scenes include skateboarding and high school proms. The video ends with Pink weeping over her success, commemorating ten years of her career and dedicating her success to her loyal fans.
