    This album was both amazing and disappointing, There were quite a few misses in the music. The lyrics of most of the songs reflect Pink's opinions on the world, and therefore it was a delighting album when you actually listened closely to the lyrics. The actual music was average in my opinion, and on first look I wasn't really amazed. But after a while of listening it was good.

The lyrics for the new single 'Stupid Girls' reflected Pink's views on how TV and other infulences cause girls to make the wrong decisions. This album was worth every cent. You probably should be able to see how instead of folllowing the majority of pop culture, Pink has made her own unique genre. However, there were a few shots far from the bulls-eye, and those have spurred me to rate this an 8. Expand

    This CD is one of the few in recent years that is brilliantly complete from start to finish. It's definitely a "pop" album but a very good one.

    While it'll never come close to M!ssundastood, I'm Not Dead is a pleasent album. Easily, "Who Knew", is one of the strongest songs on a so-so album. "Dear Mr. President" SHOULD rock your world, and bonus track "I Have Seen The Rain" is worthy of a Grammy. Without these, the album can't REALLY stand.

    This album is simply amazing. The standout track is 'dear mr president'. I love it. The album has gone platinum in america. This is a sure sign that this album is going to go great in America, its already sold a million copies. I can't wait till she brings out some new material.

    She's not bad at this Pop-Rock For Teenage Girls caper, I just wish she hadn't abandoned R&B completely. It is what it is, though. I'm Not Dead incorporates a nice balance of risque subjects, anger, childishness, melodrama, finger-pointing, vulnerability and tunes.

    One of P!nk's defining albums. It's got her prints all over it. It's fun, it's loud, it's beautiful and it's utterly likeable. She's both alternative, and mainstream - that in itself should be commended.

    This album is Pink's best, and if there were a 9.5 option,. I would certainly take it. Great vocals, outstanding lyrics, and brilliant tunes. Pinks signature album, I believe. The best pop album of the decade!

    1. Stupid Girls - This song is mean. That's a fact. I understand the intent, and I respect the attempt to share her opinion on the matter, but I really think she went a little bit far with this song, and she crossed the line with the video. The song itself isn't bad. It's catchy, but the lyrics are too much. 3.5/5

The song itself isn't bad. It's catchy, but the lyrics are too much. 3.5/5

    2. Who Knew - Without doubt, Who Knew is the best song on the album. It's really beautiful and shows off her softer side. I remember listening to this song on the radio when i was like, 8. Who knew that one day, I'd love it as much as I do. It's just... amazing. It's one of the best songs of all time. 5/5

    3. Long Way to Happy - It's a cool song. I love the chorus. It's more countryish-rock that most of the CD. It has a really great vibe. I love the instermental in it. It's not anything special, though. It really gets overshadowed by the rest of the CD. 3.5/5

    4. Nobody Knows - It's a really strong ballad. Everything about it is great. It has so much power to it. Her vocals are amazing here. 4/5

    5. Dear Mr. President - Lots of controversy over this track. No matter your political party, you really have to think about the lyrics for a minute. They don't really do anything to offend republicans. It could apply to any president. It really describes why I will never be president. 4/5

    6. I'm Not Dead - Her album titles always seem to be some of the weaker songs on the album. I could think of a better album name. That being said, this is a little better than her other title tracks, but still overshadowed by the rest of the CD. It's just not my cup of tea. 3/5

    7. Cuz I Can - This is one of the more generic songs on the CD. I try to stay away from generic music, but Cuz I Can is pretty catchy. It's got a really powerful beat. The lyrics are well written, but the message is messy. 3.5/5

    8. Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely) - The best track since Who Knew. The chorus is super catchy & fun, but it's not generic at all. It's got nice lyrics, too. It's one of those songs that make you want to dance and all that. 4.5/5

    9. U + Ur Hand - One of the standouts. The chorus is one of the best on the album. The verses are pretty weak though. It's a really fun track. It'll def make you dance. 4/5

    10. Runaway - Runaway is one of the best songs on the CD. Everything about it is absoulutely flawless. It has really nice lyrics. The beat is a little slow, but it's not bad. The chorus is to die for. It's not upbeat, but it's really nice and one of the best on the CD. 5/5

    11. The One That Got Away - The album goes acoustic for TOTGA. Not sure about it though. The lyrics are nice, but "He made cappactinos, what kind of man makes cappatinos?" Really? I know she can do better than that. It's really nice, though. 3.5/5

    12. I Got Money Now - I'm not sure if putting this after The One That Got Away was a good idea. It might get a little boring by this point. It's more R&Bish than the rest of the CD. I'm not sure the point of the song. She has money now, so everything is okay? Doesn't sound like the message I'd expect from her. Anyways, it's an okay song. 3/5

    13. Conversations With My 13 Year Old Self - It's such a beautiful song. It's really sad, and I think she did a great job with it. It's really haunting, and one of the best songs on the CD. 5/5

    14. I Have Seen The Rain - The song means a special meaning to her, so I think it does have its place on the CD. Acoustic songs aren't her high point. The lyrics are really nice, though. 3.5/5

    15. Heartbreaker - Leaving this off of the standard edition was a mistake. It's better than most of the songs that did make the standard album. It's got a great rock style to it. 4/5

    16. Centerfold - It's a great song, and I would have rather seen this than any of the acoustic music. It's not catchy, but rock isn't made to be catchy. 4/5

    17. Fingers - What's with that music? If you pitched it, it could be a Britney Spears song. Fortunately, I'm a huge Britney fan, and Britney def does clubby songs better. P!nk should stick to rock-pop, as that's what she does best.

    This is my absolute favorite pop album. P!nk's voice not only empowers strength but vulnerability as well. This is my favorite P!nk album out of the two I've heard.

    An extraordinary good album for pop standards. P!nk's got punky songs and deeper ones, always sung good with decent lyrics. She mixes the music for the radio with the meaningful stuff (Dear Mr. President, Nobody Knows) with the entertaining radio stuff (U + Ur Hand, Fingers) and hence "I'm Not Dead" is a good album. But it's no 8 or 9 or 10 - it would need a lot more to get such a rating...

    Such an amazing album, seriously there is not one bad song. P!nk knows how to write and sing music in an era where the new artist just rely on auto tune and other people to write their music. P!nk deserves a lot more credit and recognition then she is given.

Songs like Who Knew, Long Way To Happy, Runaway and Heartbreaker you can realize how smart and touched P!nk is... She can feel you so deep...

    Fantastic album, as expected from the brilliant pink. The album has a edgy and brilliant sound too it, the songs are all very good and have soul. The best songs are who knew, u+ur hand, stupid girls, leave me alone i'm lonely, cuz i can and i got money now.

    I'm Not Dead is P!nk's best album. It's honest, relatable, and meaningful record that you'll never get sick of. P!nk touches so many subjects and themes with this album: social, political, personal issues and contradictions. It's very underrated album by P!nk and deserves more attention. The most amazing tracks are probably: the emotional ballad (produced by Max Martin and Dr. Luke) WhoI'm Not Dead is P!nk's best album.

    This album is P!nk at her best. This album is a fantastic rejuvenation from the rather disappointing Try This because the album has depth and meaning. Who Knew which is easily one of the strongest songs on the album is this because of the meaning behind it. Like the titles states- P!nk is not dead.

    P!nk just keeps on getting better and better. This is her fourth album and her best yet. This is because of both her music and powerful lyrics (Dear Mr. President almost made me cry). The songs are also really diverse with some great ideas for songs. Conversations With My 13 Year Old Self was very unique in its idea, and I thought it had a fun way of describing regret. There wasn’t any song in particular that I didn’t like, though I was expecting The One Who Got Away to be more emotionally charged than it was, and I Got Money now was okay, but not as good as some of the others in the album. I did really like a huge number of the songs in I’m Not Dead. I’m excited to listen to P!nk’s next album, as they keep getting better as time goes on, and she has done a great job so far. Highlights: Stupid Girls, Who Knew, Long Way to Happy, Dear Mr. President, I’m Not Dead, ‘Cuz I Can, Leave Me Alone, Runaway, and Centerfold.

    P!nk is definitely not dead. Although the album didn't win any awards and almost failed to make any impact, Pink's hard work paid off and it went on to sell millions around the globe and it had a few hits. It's a great pop record with various styles and really cool lyrics. Perhaps, P!nk's best album.

    It's so good to notice how P!nk has become a woman after these years. The previous albuns were really good, but with I'm not dead, P!nk show to the world that her voice matters more than we expect from a pop singer
