Missundaztood
''Missundaztood'' (stylized as ''M!ssundaztood'') is the second studio album by American singer Pink. It was released on November 20, 2001, by Arista Records. After the success of her debut album '' Can't Take Me Home'' (2000), Pink became dissatisfied with her lack of creative control and being marketed as a white R&B singer. Aspiring to follow a rawer, rock-inspired musical direction, she began working on the album with Linda Perry after finding Perry's phone number in her makeup artist's phone book. Instead of relying on popular producers, Pink decided to collaborate with producers and artists who inspired her and enlisted help from Dallas Austin, Damon Elliott, Marti Frederiksen, and Scott Storch. ''Missundaztood'' also features guest appearances by Perry, Scratch, Steven Tyler, and guitarist Richie Supa. The album was produced at a number of recording studios during 2001.

You+Me
In Modern English, the word "''you''" is the second-person pronoun. It is grammatically plural, and was historically used only for the dative case, but in most modern dialects is used for all cases and numbers. History ''You'' comes from the Proto-Germanic demonstrative base , from Proto-Indo-European (second-person plural pronoun). Old English had singular, dual, and plural second-person pronouns.
