On This Day in Pink History… 9th May 2016, Just Like Fire music video was released
On This Day in Pink History… 9th May 2016, Just Like Fire music video was released
The official video for Just Like Fire was directed by Dave Meyers and was released May 9, 2016, ahead of the US premiere of Alice Through the Looking Glass. The video features Pink’s husband Carey Hart and their daughter Willow. In it, Pink is observed swinging on silk ropes hung from the ceiling of a large drawing room by her husband. Her daughter, seated on a nearby fireplace mantle, watches as a blue butterfly flies into a mirror over the fireplace. Willow follows, stepping into the mirror. Shortly after, Pink swings on the ropes and leaps onto the mantle, stepping into the mirror as well. She arrives on a giant chessboard outside a castle. On the chessboard are doubles of Pink dressed as various chess pieces. The doubles circle Pink and the white queen shoves her over. She lands in a chair at a table set up for a tea party suspended in the air. Also seated around the table is the Mad Hatter and Willow. The butterfly from the beginning flies around the table as Pink sings the song’s bridge. Suddenly, she falls out of her chair and is shown falling through the sky, stopping inches off the ground in a rose garden. The Timekeeper from the film gives Willow a watch in the background. Then, Pink begins hallucinating scenes from the film, her in a straightjacket, and scene from earlier in the video. It suddenly cuts to Pink in a straightjacket, being carted away into a sanitarium while her husband signs the release papers with a female doctor.
On This Day in Pink History… 8th May 2009, Bad Influence was released
On This Day in Pink History… 8th May 2009, Bad Influence was released
Bad Influence was the fourth single to be released from Pink’s fifth studio album, Funhouse. It was released in Australia on 8th May 2009, and in 2010 in Europe.
Bad Influence was written by Pink, with Billy Mann, Butch Walker, Robin Mortensen Lynch and Niklas Olovson, while production was handled by Machopsycho and Billy Mann. It is a straight up rock chick party song that makes no apologies for wilding out with your gal pals once in a while. Pink stated: “I’m with the Hindus on that one,” the singer laughs. “Pleasure for pleasure’s sake is not a guilty sin.”
The song was chosen as the album’s fourth single following its use in an Optus advertisement, promoting her Funhouse Tour. The track was also played frequently on Channel Pink on Channel V Australia, as well as becoming the theme for the Volkswagen Polo commercials in Europe.
Bad Influence was the opening track on the setlist for the 2009 Funhouse Tour
The song was the most added song to the radio in Australia in its first week of release. On the ARIA Singles Chart, the song peaked at number 6, and has been certified Gold, selling over 35,000 copies. On the Australian Airplay Chart, the song became Pink’s 4th consecutive #1 song on the chart, and 4th from the album. In New Zealand, “Bad Influence” debuted at number thirty three in May, 2009, rising to number twenty seven later. It has so far peaked at number twelve. It entered the UK charts at #161 in October 2009 because of the advert, peaked at #123. Bad Influence entered the German Singles Chart at #26 in April 2010.

PinkHistory.blog is now LIVE!
The PinkHistory website has been open since May 2014. It has since had over 100k views and as Pink’s career grows, so does the website!
Over the last few weeks I have spent time updating the website, clearing it up and made the big change of renaming the domain web address from PinkHistoryOfficial.com to PinkHistory.blog
This new domain is shorter and easier to remember!
Other changes and updates are as follows:
- European tour dates have been added to the Beautiful Trauma tour page. Don’t forget, we are still keeping PinkHistory tour spoiler free, so check out the page dedicated to the tour to find special social media groups for discussion on all things tour related.
- Links page has been updated
- Try This Special pages have been taken down. This is due to dead YouTube video links.
- Pink’s top 25 moments & 15 iconic performances (2000-2014) post has been updated with the dead YouTube video links being replaced.
- Beautiful Trauma album page has been updated.
- Hurts 2B Human has been added to the discography and a page for the album has been added.
- Updated links on the Full Concerts page.
- Updated Singles Discography
- Hurts 2B Human lyrics added to the lyrics section.
- Some old posts have been deleted and the old style collage pics have been removed.
Because of the change in the web address, it meant that the artwork on the website was outdated as it had the old web address linked. So all of the artwork has been redone to include the new web address – PinkHistory.blog. This also included changing every song header in the lyrics section of the website.
