Trouble (Pink Song)
"Trouble" is a song by American singer Pink for her third studio album, ''Try This'' (2003). Initially written by Tim Armstrong for his band Rancid, the song was re-written with Pink after it was brought to her attention. Produced by Armstrong, "Trouble" is a pop friendly punk-rock tune, that features a gritty and choppy guitar riff, with Pink describing it as a "fun song."
