Misunderstood

A detailed Summary of Misunderstood

Strong, durable, vigorous, and resilient. These adjectives are the most accurate means of describing Pink and her successful album, titled "Missundaztood". If I had somehow been stranded on a desert island, without a doubt in my mind, this album would be the one item that would help me to survive. Although I have an interest in a variety of music, I do not think that country or pop-like music would be the ideal type of music that would help me to feel as hopeful in such a situation. This album, both sounding upbeat and radiating a feeling of triumph, produces a sensation of hope and survival.

What makes this album particularly important to me, is not only the lyrics and sound of the music, but more importantly, it explains how tough life can seem. In particular, the songs "Don't Let Me Get Me," "Just Like a Pill" and "Family Affair" provide a rock/pop tune, easy to feel, and lyrics that send a shiver through out one's body:" Don't let me get me/ I'm my own worst enemy/ It's bad when you annoy yourself/So irritating/ Don't wanna be my friend no more/ I wanna be somebody else".

This is where the final song, which in my mind, is the most important song of the album, comes into sequence.

The precision of the tone and lyrics just-I don't even know how to explain it-but just spurs life and motivation throughout my body. It lets me know that no matter how bad things may seem, if you put your heart and soul into overcoming these obstacles in life, things will get better. As a result of encountering and prevailing over such things in life, this will influence you, and make you a stronger, better human being. My mother and I finally stood up against this pathetic excuse for a human being, and ever since we decided not to let him control and destroy us, I feel this amazing sensation every day. Listening to this song,--and not only the lyrics, but the powerful beat and rhythm-allows me to recognize what an amazing life I have now, and that no matter what obstacle I encounter in life, no matter how high or difficult that obstacle may seem, I will get through it.

"Missundaztood" allows me to retrace the sequence of my past. From "Don't Let Me Get Me", "Just Like A Pill" and "Family Affair", which recognizes how upset and angry, depressed and abused I once felt, to the concluding and most important song "18 Wheeler" which rushes an unexplainable feeling of exhilaration throughout my body. This collection of songs, chosen both because of the lyrics and dominan
