Walk Me Home was released as the lead single for Pink’s eighth studio album, Hurts 2B Human. Pink announced the track during an interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in early February 2019. Walk Me Home was written by Pink, Scott Friedman and Nate Ruess. It was produced by Peter Thomas and Kyle Moorman.
Upon its release, critical response was positive towards the track, with music critics commending the optimistic departure from Pink’s previous singles. Commercially, Walk Me Home achieved moderate success and charted within the top-ten charts of several countries, including Croatia, Ireland, Latvia, Poland, Slovenia, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. In the United States, the single peaked at number 49 on the Billboard Hot 100, and reached number-one on the Adult Pop Songs chart, extending Pink’s lead as the soloist with the most number-ones on the chart. For promotion, an accompanying lyric video was uploaded onto Pink’s official YouTube channel simultaneously with the song’s release, followed by the release of a music video directed by Michael Gracey in March, 2019. Pink performed Walk Me Home at the 2019 Brit Awards and on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

On This Day in Pink History… 19th February 2002, Don’t Let Me Get Me was released
Don’t Let Me Get Me was released as the second single from Pink’s second album, Missundaztood.
The song earned positive reports from music critics, but most gave sensitively mixed reviews upon her self-hating lyrical content. Robert Christgau in his consumer guide for MSN wrote that “Despite Pink’s audacious claim that she’s not as pretty as ‘damn Britney Spears,’ celebrity anxiety takes a backseat to a credible personal pain rooted in credible family travails, a pain held at bay by expression.” Jim Farber of Entertainment Weekly wrote that “In Don’t Let Me Get Me, she turns self-loathing into a perverse kind of anthem.”
Jason Thompson of PopMatters wrote, “on the power rock of ‘Don’t Let Me Get Me,’ Pink herself tells it like it is and attempts to break free from the image making machine. ‘Tired of being compared / To damn Britney Spears / She’s so pretty / That just ain’t me.’ Well, that’s debatable in itself, but the fact that Pink takes it upon herself to call Spears out should be nothing short of revelatory. Spears certainly has nothing on Pink in the vocal department. Pink can actually sing. And damn well, mind you.”
Jim Alexander wrote a negative review, saying that the rest of Missundaztood is full of bad songs and that “‘Don’t Let Me Get Me’ and ‘Dear Diary’ see all pop joy expunged for acoustic seriousness, dreary unobtrusive beats and lyrics about relationship woes and record company badness.”

Trustfall is the ninth studio album by American singer Pink. The album was released on February 17, 2023, through RCA Records.

During a 2021 interview, promoting the documentary, Pink was questioned about her next studio album. When asked about the tone of the album, she replied saying she was not sure as it was in the “early days” but that it would be “very honest”.

The album was inspired by many personal events in her life including her children getting sick and her father’s death.
