On This Day in Pink History… 23rd October 2009, I Don’t Believe You was released

Pink explained on her website that, lyrically, the song is about pleading for reconciliation, and is her favourite song fromFunhouse “because it’s just so naked. It’s like taking a deep breathe and saying, ‘Here I am. Take me. Take your best shot’.” She went on to explain that: “The first thing that comes to my mind with I Don’t Believe You is me standing in the vocal booth listening… Actually in the control room listening to this song, tears running down my face, just like ‘fuck, really?’ It’s the vulnerable weak side of me that I don’t let out very often. And it’s [sighs], yeah it’s that song. And I love it, I love it. I just love it, it’s very near and dear to me.”

I Don’t Believe You is Pink’s single with the lowest peak in the United Kingdom only reaching number 62. It failed to reach the top forty due to physical single was cancelled.

The music video for I Don’t Believe You, directed by Sophie Muller, was shot in September 2009 in Los Angeles, California. The music video premiered on October 2009. The video is in black and white, it features Pink in the wedding dress she wore to her actual wedding to Carey Hart in 2006, and a diamond encrusted wedding gown as she searches for her lover, to no avail. Scenes include her lying down in the dress, rollerblading around what appears to be the inside of a church (The Los Angeles Theater), singing to an empty wedding dinnerroom, crying over an empty wedding album and singing to herself in front of the mirror.

In 2013 I was contacted, along with other fans, by Letters To Pink with information about a project that was being started. Gypsy, a fan in Washington, was putting together a fan project of letters and gifts to Pink from fans all over the world.

She gave fans a step to get their thoughts, feelings and words to Pink. She spend a lot of hours and hard work to put together the book, letters and gifts to give to Pink during the performance.

A few weeks later, Pink tweeted a photo of the book, letters and gifts…

“Wow you gals and guys!!!!! Thank you so so so so much for these amazingly loving gifts and letters”

Gypsy carried on with the project in January 2014 and often did giveaway competitions on her Facebook and twitter pages.

In June 2014, sadly Gypsy passed away. I think I can speak for all fans including in this project by saying we are forever grateful for what Gypsy did for us, we will never forget the kindness she showed us. RIP Gypsy, you will be forever in the hearts of the P!nk family x
