There You Go

"There You Go" is a song by American singer Pink from her debut studio album, Can't Take Me Home (2000). It was co-written by Pink, Kevin "She'kspere" Briggs, and Kandi Burruss and was produced by Briggs, while Burruss produced the vocals. "There You Go" is a sassy, playful, and jittery R&B track with slinky instrumentation led by harpsichord-synthesizers. Based on personal experiences, the uptempo song is about a bad relationship that the protagonist has ended, but the ex-boyfriend wants her back. The song was released as the lead single from Can't Take Me Home on January 18, 2000, by LaFace Records and Arista Records, serving as Pink's debut single. It received critical acclaim, with most critics comparing it favorably to other She'kspere productions from that time, including songs by Destiny's Child and TLC. Commercially, it reached the top of the Canadian Digital Songs Sales Chart and became a top ten hit in several countries, including Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States, where it reached Gold status the same year. Pink collaborated with director Dave Meyers to film a music video for "There You Go," which depicts her getting revenge on her cheating boyfriend and debuted via The Box in late November 1999. The visuals were nominated for an MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist. While Pink performed the song frequently during her first concert tours, her shift in sound, beginning with follow-up album Missundaztood (2001), led to the exclusion of "There You Go" from her set lists after 2013's The Truth About Love Tour.
