P!nk on You + Me: 'I'll never be respected as a songwriter so this is nothing other than a fun hang'

'Who Knew' hitmaker P!nk has opened up about her new musical duo You + Me, which also includes Alexisonfire's Dallas Green, and revealed that while the sound is very different from the material fans will be used to hearing from her, it doesn't feel like that much of a stretch.

Speaking about her switch from huge arena performances to this new acoustic style, P!nk admitted that it's not a big change because she always incorporated a quieter section into her shows:

"In the same concerts where I’m flying around, I’m always barefoot and sitting with an acoustic guitar too. In every show, I do an acoustic section, so it’s a very big part of me.”

The songstress went onto add that she doesn't feel respected as a songwriter, even now with this new project: “No – and I never will be. [Songwriter] Linda Perry told me back when I was doing 'Mizzundaztood' that, as the pop star, you’re never going to get the credit, even though you’re writing all your own songs. This wasn’t an attempt at anything other than a fun hang."
