"True Love"
Song

"True Love" is a song written and recorded by American recording artist Pink featuring Lily Rose Cooper from her sixth studio album, "The Truth About Love". It was written by Pink, Lily Rose Cooper and Greg Kurstin.[1][2] The song was released as the album's second promotional single, following "Are We All We Are", in early 2013. It was released exclusively to Hungarian and Dutch radio. On April 29, 2013 it was announced that the song would be released as the fourth single.[3][4][5]

Background

In late February 2012, Pink tweeted that she was currently in the studio, working on an upcoming studio album. In early June, she released a video saying that her first single off the album was to be called "Blow Me (One Last Kiss)". It was released in July. Her new album was named "The Truth About Love" and was released in September. Since then, she has released two other singles from the album: "Try", and "Just Give Me a Reason". Pink says that the song is about her relationship with Carey Hart and she finds the song funny lyrically. [6] "True Love" was the third song from "The Truth About Love" to be leaked onto the internet, as "Here Comes The Weekend" was leaked the day before. [7]

"True Love" has so far peaked at number 33 on the Rádiós Top 40 Hungarian Airplay Chart.[8] and at number 22 on the Dutch Top 40. [9]
