Funhouse is the fifth studio album by American pop singer Pink, released by LaFace Records worldwide in October 2008.[1] Upon its release, the album reached number one on the charts in Australia, New Zealand and United Kingdom, while debuting at number two in Germany, Ireland, France and United States.[2]

The album's lead single, "So What", has been the biggest solo success of Pink's career to date, topping the charts in eleven countries so far, including her native United States, the UK, Germany and in Australia, and reaching the top 5 in many others.[3] The album also yielded hit single "Sober" which reached the top 20 in almost 20 countries,[4] including the United States,[5] Canada,[6] Turkey[7] and many others. The album's third single, "Please Don't Leave Me", reached the top 20 in the United Sates, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and UK. The fourth single "Bad Influence" has so far charted in New Zealand and Australia. "Funhouse" will be released as the fourth worldwide single. The video premiered on 4music at 11:00am in the UK on June 20, 2009.

The album's original title was Heartbreak Is a Motherfucker,[8] which is due to the fact that the album speaks openly about Pink's separation from her husband, motocross rider Carey Hart. The two have since reconciled. However, the title was changed to avoid public reactions that may cause a decrease in the sales.[9]

Writing and development

Pink has stated that this album is her most vulnerable to date.[10] Much of the album's subject matter alludes to the fact that Moore recently separated from her husband, Carey Hart (Although never signing legal divorce documents, a divorce was planned but was not proceeded with as Moore and Hart soon reunited).[11] The first single, "So What", opens with: "I guess I just lost my husband/I don't know where he went".[12] "Please Don't Leave Me" also addresses the split. The artist sums up its theme thus: "Okay, I’m an asshole, but love me anyway."[10] In "Mean", she sings, "It was good in the beginning/but how did we get so mean?"[10] The song that Moore is the most proud of is "Crystal Ball". She said about the track: "I recorded it in one take and we didn’t mix it. It just went straight to master. It was all about a vibe and not about perfection or being polished. I just love that song and I loved recording it."[10] She wrote the song together with friend Billy Mann who also aided her with the songs "Stupid Girls", "Dear Mr. President" and "I'm Not Dead", among others.

In the song "It's All Your Fault", she proclaims in the lyrics "I conjure up the thought of being gone, but I’d probably even do that wrong." In "Glitter in the Air", Pink asks many questions such as, "Have you ever looked fear in the face and said I just don’t care?", and "Have you ever hated yourself for staring at the phone?" Pink admits, "I still don’t have some of the answers to the questions I pose on this record. I’m still figuring it all out."[10]

The second single off the album is "Sober". Pink wrote this song at a party hosted at her home, where everyone was drunk or drinking except for her, and she wanted them all to leave. She went to the beach and had a line in her head saying "How do I feel so good sober?". Eventually it had nothing to do with alcohol but with identities. "How do I feel so good with just me, without anyone to lean on?", Pink says in an interview.[13]

"Ave Mary A" deals with world issues and problems. "One Foot Wrong" talks about an acid trip that went wrong, but also has an underlying theme. "That song is also about losing control and how easy it is to lose the plot in life and teeter on the edge.".[10]

Originally, Pink wanted to call her album Heartbreak Is a Motherfucker , but her record label declined because of a fear that offensive language would hurt sales. She also said that she didn't want the album to look like a break-up album; "There is a lot of that [break-up], but there is fun happening too and that's why I named it Funhouse in the end." Pink has also stated that she sees life as a carnival: "Clowns are supposed to be happy, but they are really scary. Carnivals are supposed to be fun, but really they are kind of creepy." [...] "and that's like life to me, and love. Love is supposed to be fun, but it can sometimes be really scary. And the funhouse mirrors that make you look so distorted that you don’t recognize yourself and you ask yourself, ‘How did I get here? How do I get out of here?’ But, you think that you want to do it again. That is the same as love and life. It's a metaphor for being in love and for life."[10] This also shows in the title track "Funhouse" where she tells that it used to be fun. "It's about when the box you’re in doesn’t fit anymore, burn that fucker down and start a new one."[10]

Recording information

Pink had written and recorded approximately 30 to 35 songs at the ready for the new album. "It's like getting rid of your children: 'I like that one too, but I'm going to let that one die,'" she says of choosing album tracks. "The good thing now is that different countries want extra songs and B-sides, so there's always a home for the other kids."[14] Pink traveled internationally to write and record the album, working with Eg White in London and with Max Martin in Stockholm. "It was really good to get out of my house and get away from my life. No distractions. No phones", explains Pink of her overseas sessions.[10]

Critical reception

Reviews of the album have been generally positive.[15] Sydney's The Daily Telegraph gave it 4.5 stars saying, "The record is a balanced blend of upbeat pop gems and midtempo ballads." Adding that "The power of Pink's pop lies in the clever juxtaposition of heartfelt honesty about her life with anthematic choruses and irresistible melodies tailormade to be screamed out by her fans."[16]

Other positive reviews were by US Magazine, who gave the album four stars, saying "The rebellious Grammy winner again fuses unrestrained lyrics with perfect pop-rock hooks on her electrifying fifth CD. From her aggressive No. 1 hit "So What" to the vulnerable "Please Don’t Leave Me" and the openhearted ballad "I Don’t Believe You", along with the angry "It's All Your Fault", Pink confirms she's still in excellent fighting shape."[17]

Mixed reviews came from the likes of Rolling Stone and Blender,[18] each giving the album three stars. Rolling Stone stated "Pink has shown more personality before, and some cuts, including the goopy ballad "I Don't Believe You", make her sound like just another big-voiced chart-buster. Funhouse would be more fun if Pink went easier on the bad-love songs."[19]

Chart performance

Four versions of Funhouse were released to the US iTunes store: two versions of the original, one explicit and one clean; two versions of the deluxe, one explicit and one clean. However, both versions of Funhouse (Deluxe Edition) were unexplainedly removed from the US iTunes store in the evening of Tuesday, October 28, 2008. Funhouse (Deluxe Edition) was readded to the US iTunes store the next day.

Funhouse debuted at #2 on the United States Billboard 200 chart issued on November 18, 2008, with sales of 180,000, behind AC/DC's Wal-Mart exclusive, Black Ice, which claimed the top spot with its second-week sales of 271,000. This is Pink's highest charting album on the Billboard 200 so far. Other songs also charted on the Digital Chart  — "Sober" (#71 with 16,972 copies sold), "Please Don't Leave Me" (#89 with 14,032 copies sold), "Bad Influence" (#151 with 7,734 copies sold), "It's All Your Fault" (#158 with 7,511 copies sold) and "I Don't Believe You" (#172 with 7,012 copies sold). After weeks of falling down the Billboard 200, Funhouse rebounded 21   13. By early March 2009 it was certified platinum by the RIAA for selling over 1,000,000 copies.

Minor controversy occurred in Australia where record shops broke embargo and placed Funhouse on sale one day before the release date. Funhouse still managed to be the fourth highest selling album of the week, with only one day of sales, selling 7,120 copies.[20] Funhouse debuted at number one in Australia, becoming Pink's first album to do so.[2] It sold 86,273 units that week (the highest first week sales of 2008), and was immediately certified 2x Platinum. Funhouse achieved nine consecutive weeks at #1, tying with The Beatles compilation 1 (20 November 2000 - 21 January 2001). Funhouse has been certified 7x Platinum, after only 3 months of release. On the issue date of April 20, 2009, Pink became the only artist to have 3 albums at the top 50 in the album charts with Funhouse sitting at #8 while her 2 previous albums I'm Not Dead and M!ssundaztood charted at number 32 and 46 respectively. The album's 4 singles have all peaked at #1 on the Australian Airplay Chart. On the issue date of June 8, 2009, Pink broke another record on the ARIA Albums Top 50 having all her 5 albums enter the top 50 with Funhouse at number 3, I'm Not Dead at number 12, Try This at number 26, M!ssundaztood at number 19 and Can't Take Me Home at number 38 and also the M!ssundaztood/Can't Take Me Home box set at number 39.

The album sold over 37,100 copies in its first day in the UK, placing it at number one in UK midweeks over Snow Patrol's A Hundred Million Suns, which sold a similar amount of 34,600. On the Friday midweek update, Pink had sold 83,000 compared to Snow Patrol's 70,000.[21] Funhouse became her first UK number one album in the UK, entering at number one on November 2, 2008. It has currently been certified twice platinum with total sales so far of 800,000+. On 28 December 2008, Funhouse was announced as the 9th biggest selling record of 2008, despite only being available to purchase for nine weeks out of the fifty-two.

On October 31, 2008 Funhouse debuted at number 1 in the album top 100 in the Netherlands. This is her highest debut ever in the Netherlands.[2]

In New Zealand, Funhouse debuted at number one on November 3, 2008, becoming Pink's highest debut there. The album shipped over 15,000 copies in its first week and was certified Platinum. The album stayed at number one for a second week, before slipping to number three in its third week. Funhouse was certified 2x Platinum after eight weeks shipping over 30,000 copies.[22]

In Switzerland, Funhouse debuted at number one in November 5, 2008. It shipped over 30,000 copies in its first week, therefore it was certified Platinum.[23]
