“Dave Meyers and I are back together again,” says Pink in the announcement accompanying the video. The clip ends in a “Lord of the Rings” style hellscape, with her pushing away her no-good husband and reconciling with her mother - but ends on a more than disturbing note, complete with a “Terminator 2” reference, where she and her daughter go up in flames in a nuclear Armageddon, based around the song’s last line, “I will be with you until the world blows up.” And she is. The two are then transported to a clipper ship awesomely called the “SS Fuck You,” where she and Hart are at the prow, “Titanic” style.Īnother symbolism-heavy scene ensues where, dressed as the “We Can Do It!” model, she is pushing a vintage Mustang with her family inside up a steep hill by herself - with Hart at the wheel telling her to hurry up. A wide variety of surreal, eye-popping scenes ensue that find the young girl - who has grown into Pink - battling everything from giant dweebs to a rainstorm of daggers, walking through a desert strewn with beached battleships - during which Cher appears from the clouds as an angel encouraging Pink to push on - to a desert island where, battle-tested, she blows away all of the hostile male inhabitants except for one (Carey Hart, her real-life husband), who she immediately falls in love with. The story unfolds about a rebellious teenaged girl who is constantly fighting with her mother and ultimately leaves home.
