[Vocal Profile] P!nk


Pink

Vocal Type: Lyric Mezzo-Soprano
Vocal Range: A2 - A5 - E6 (3 octaves, 4 notes)
Whistle Register: No
Vocal Strengths:A powerful, dark, rich and sturdy voice that has a trademark vocal grit within its flawless placement and superb vocal control. Pink's voice can cut through the roaring instrumentation of her music with its incredible and effortless resonance [U + Ur Hand]. The voice carries a heavy, wide vibrato that is controlled and never laboured.The voice is also capable of melisma- though it is under utilized [Love Is Such A Crazy Thing].



This Diva is known to be a top-echelon emotive singer. For example, Family Portrait sees her approach the soprano tessitura as she uses her coarse pulled belt to communicate angst and pain; Who Knew has her purposefully cracking and breaking the vocal line to accentuate the  heartbreak of the lyric; while Please Don't Leave Me sees a lyrical, supple tone echoing the song's vulnerability.

Pink has a near-perfect lower range that is excellently supported and greatly projected, holding a dark, full timbre even at the lower end [Bad Influence]. Due to this, she's able to effortlessly phrase here [Don't Let Me Get Me]. The vocal placement is always stable, and as a result, the sound created is controlled, healthy and extremely audible [Crystal Ball].

As she ascends into the mid-range, it exhibits a far smoother quality than the lower range. However it maintains the richness and ringing timbre of the voice. Here, there is a spunky tone that is often accentuated by the unique style of phrasing the Diva tends to adopt [Just Like A Pill]. Thanks to the fluid, easy transitions within Pink's range, she can use the mid-range to access the upper and lower regions of the voice with ease [True Love].

The mid-belts can be effortlessly phrased with a slicing, powerful and clean tone [Get The Party Started]. The voice, in general here, is known for its incisive, earthy and confident tone, which is bolstered by the Diva's empathetic singing [Try]. As noted, she can pull the belts into her throat for a rougher sound, however if not purposefully pulled into the throat- and mixed with the head voice- the sound is well-placed, supported, bright and resonant. The voice has a surprisingly elastic character as a darker mezzo-soprano, and can ascend to the top notes with ease [Blow Me (One Last Kiss)].  As a whole, the belting range is what makes Pink the vocalist she is.

The falsetto, although laboured, pulled and lacking the control of the rest of the voice, does carry a breathy, light timbre. However this can be more fuller and controlled [Sober]. Pink can also add a "rockiness" to the timbre, giving it an edge [Misery] that is sympathetic to the rest of the range. Due to consistent under usage, it's found mainly within harmonies and octave unisons [Timebomb]. Even then, she’s able to phrase effortlessly within the range and utilise a sing-talk styling [Stupid Girls].

Overall, P!nk is a vocalist known for her dynamic, robust and emotive voice that carries exemplary musicality- demoed through her usage of harmony and octave unisons - and flawless breath control.

Vocal Weaknesses: The grit can become overbearing at points within the upper chest, and the falsetto is disconnected, laboured and lacks control and easy access.

Thanks to BacktoBlack for updating!

  3. She is so talented. As a vocalist, a musician, a writer, a producer. An artist. I love how she can be cool and funky and then all vulnerable and gentle and then be hard and powerful. Gahh, she is so awesome! Jealous

    After hearing her new song: 'Blow Me (One Last Kiss) I'd say she's more of a Soprano or so! Just my opinion!

    After hearing her new song; 'Blow Me (One Last Kiss) I'd say she's more of a Soprano, or a Mezzo!

    Ok, maybe a mezzo-soprano, but not a damn contralto, they have alot of vocal ranges wrong on this page, i mean ALOT! They dont even have Kelly Price, what the hell?!

  7. P!nk is definitely a Contralto. Her voice screams it. She barely uses headvoice- when she does it lacks the colors and sound of a true Soprano or even Mezzo- her most comfort is at the bottom of her range and even though she mixes fairly well in Blow me one last kiss her voice lacks the luster that is in the bottom chest notes. I'd say most of the profiles on here are actually very spot on.

  10. I've always found P!nks story and career as a whole to be a lot more critical and relate able than her fellow pop explosion rivals and her music also always carried a lot more personality. She really doesn't get as much credit as she deserves.

  11. I totally agree, she has been through similar stuff to other celebs but still remained real and actually a genuinely nice person, unless you piss her off! I like that, the fact she is just so real. I definately also think that she is by far one of the best live singers out there, she is definately in my top ten, the high end at that!

  12. I agree with both you guys. :)
    Shame they are taking their time with parts 3 to 9 but parts 1 and 2 were a good watch.
    Same guys also made documentaries like this on a lot of other interesting artists.
    You guys should check out that channel!

  13. Have you heard her new album? In her song Blow Me(One Last Kiss) in the chorus she hit a G5 which I found unbelievable and suddenly her voice has gotten a little bit lighter instead of having her strong raspy voice.

  14. She's probably gaining more skills in her head voice. Pink is best known for her sultry voice and rocky, chestier vocals, but in the last few projects we have seen her developing her facility in head register as well.

  15. OK so I trolling on youtube and I find pink singing a D6! here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdY61D52OPE you have to see this it's crazy!

  16. I think she has a great voice and meaningful songs, but unfortunately she is underrated because she does not show nakes parts.

  19. She is my second favorite mezzo-soprano...I love her voice, thick, weighty, sultry.

  20. She's not a contralto!!!You said that said that about shakira too and it's totally wrong.Just because she's being putting too much weight on her voice, while also being a smoker for years making her voice heavy and husky doesn't mean she's a contralto.Women can sound really low when they employ too much chest voice.If you listen to her songs carefully though and you truly have an idea about the function of the voice (besides just reading the wiki info and making assumptions) you would know that she's obviously nothing even close to a true contralto.I think she's a mezzo.Could be a soprano too, but that would be too much of an extreme case (not more than the contralto senario though... )

    A lot of people are arguing about her voice type, but she is indeed a contralto. Pink has enough vocal skill and capability to skillfully sing in different ranges, but even when you hear her speak in interviews her speaking range is distinctively lower than the soprano range. She couldn't be a mezzo soprano because her natural range doesn't sit high enough in her upper register even if her coloring is dark enough to fit her in the category. Regardless of whatever voice type people think she is, this woman is a vocal powerhouse not to mention an absolutely incredible live performer, artist and person. I think Pink is one of the few active artists in the industry today who legitimately doesn't get half the recognition she deserves.

  37. Her voice is not really androgynous so i say she's a reeeaaaally low mezzo just like jazmine sullivan and adele :)

    ReplyDelete
  38. she's a contralto
    she got resonance in the low notes, which usually don't have
    she also have the passagio of contralto (because i'm contralto too)
    contralto have disconnected headvoice that's why it's easier too rather using full headvoice
