Raise Your Glass is a song from American singer Pink for her first greatest hits album, Greatest HitsâŠSo Far, which was released in 2010. Pink wrote this song in collaboration with Max Martin and Karl "Shellback" Schuster. This song is an homage to Pink's debut in 2000, and she dedicated this song to her fans, who have been supporting her since the beginning.
Raise Your Glass was released as the lead single for the album under the label of LaFace Records. This particular song was both critical and commercial success, and it was acclaimed as the party anthem, resulting in the song reaching the top ten in several countries, including the US, where it became the third number-one single in the US. You can even spot this song in a commercial for the movie Bridesmaids and also in the theatrical trailer for the film What's Your Number?
This song has a strong pop style which is pretty similar to what we get to see from her previous records. Pink is about celebrating people who feel left out from the popular crowd. These were the words from Pink when she was asked to describe the meaning of the lyrics in her MTV interview. Digital Spy gave this song a complete 5 out of 5, marking it as a full-throttle pop/rock number. With this song, Pink became the third female artist to have the most top 10 hits in the 2000s, just behind Rihanna and Beyoncé. Raise Your Glasses took eight weeks to reach the top of the Billboard Hot 100; it stayed there for a single week.
The music video for the song was filmed on October 4, 2010; it was the 12th collaboration between Pink and director Dave Meyers. The music video is based on Pink's real-life experience; it features a celebration of gay marriage. Raise Your Glass serves as an opening song of Pink's live performances.
