The Truth About Love Tour: Live From Melbourne

I own her other blu ray release of Funhouse Tour Down under, so I knew going into this that as long as I like the album that the show would not disappoint. I own the fan release version of this album and that was a totally solid album. Though you get 7 "bonus" songs it's not like they are throwaways or rough versions, they were great songs. And this show is great as well. Although the guy who came out between some of the songs was a bit annoying, the parts showcasing Pink were not to be missed. she usually throws in a song or two that she covers (previously she did Crazy and Bohemian Rhapsody (by Gnarls Barkley and Queen respectively) and she really impressed me. Most artists may sound great singing their own songs but usually they fall a bit flat with covers. The show was very physical and had some trapeze/wire work, but that didn't detract from the vocals (take that Britney Spears). Pink is a true artist and doesn't disappoint. I'm looking forward to her next show/album eagerly. I missed her this past year due to being in the hospital. I'll definitely catch her in person next time around. The bonus material is a bit silly. it has more of the annoying clown guy and a redneck version of "Slut Like You" but the main reason to buy is for the actual show, which is top notch. It's great to see live performers not lip synching. if there is any pre-recorded parts it has to do with the background vocals (as on the album she does the background as well) and additional sounds/voices, but the main vocal is live. Anyone who is a fan of rock concerts or just well done concerts should pick this up. her vocals are strong even though the physical demands are great. You'd never know she recently had a child. A DEFINITE must-have

My wife and I love pink, and we were actually at the first show of this tour as my valentine gift to her. Fantastic show, we loved it! So, not being one to pass up a good "bonus points with the wife" opportunity, I got her this as a gift. The music is great, of course, but I want to strangle the editor and/or director.Would all concert video editors/directors please, please, PLEASE realize that this is about the music, the show, and the artist--not YOUR "artistic vision" of the concert! Show the show that is going on. "Improve" on it only by giving angles and viewing ranges that most of the audience doesn't get to see. If there is a fun/interesting (/important?) AV element going on, that the audience there gets to see, SHOW IT. (The stage backdrop graphics for "How Come You're Not Here" are a riot and put a completely different spin on the song. There are some sections in a few others songs where the graphics are great as well...and none of it is in this video!)Then it gets worse. After NOT showing the things that are part of the show, the editor and/or director decide to get "creative" by using slo-mo strobe/afterimage effects. Of course, this immediately causes what you are seeing on the screen to not match up with the audio you are hearing...and then there is a jarring cut back to what is actually happening...and who knows what went on in the part you missed? This effect does nothing to add to the show (in fact, it detracts from it). And they do it more than once.Then there's the fact that this was edited in the style of Michael Bay (badly), with quick, choppy cuts from camera to camera for no real reason other than the editor and/or director needed to feel like they were doing something every couple of seconds. There is an amazing stage show going on--your job is to show that, not show that you know now to switch from camera A to C to F to B to E within 10 seconds, just because you can!I'm not someone who spouts that the Talking Heads "Stop making sense" is the only good concert video ever made, but really, its one of the best because it lets you ENJOY THE SHOW THE ARTIST HAS PUT TOGETHER, AS IT WAS PUT TOGETHER.With the show pink puts on, its really a shame the video of it was handled by these hacks.5 stars for the concert.0 stars for the editing.So 3 stars overall, because I can't do a 2.5 stars.

Let me start by saying, my wife and I own over 20 Blu-ray concerts. Every time we get a new concert, we watch it over and over and some of those include "Lady GaGa MB, Sade, Adele, Amy Winehouse and John Mayer". We got this Pink: The Truth About Love Tour Blu-ray from Amazon and have watched the complete concert 3 days in a row. All i can say is Wow, it's hard to pick a stand out performance because the entire Blu-ray is mind blowing. There is so much going on at one time, you actually get lost trying to see everything. Before I saw this concert, I liked a few of Pink's song, but never imagined the level of talent this lady has. The Video quality was awesome, the Audio "True Dolby HD" rocked from beginning to end. Every aspect of this concert is nothing short of stunning, from the acrobatics, the high energy band, the amazing dancers to the crazy cool stage. My wife and I joke about which of our Blu-ray concert collection sits atop the mountain, well I can say with a great deal of certainty, this concert is alone at the top and a must own for any Pink fan, or a fan of great musical performances. I will give you a few titles we marveled over "Just Like A Pill, Train Wreck, Sober, Blow One Last Kiss and Slut Like Me". Just ordered the Pink: Funhouse Blu-ray and can't wait to see more of this rare talent.

Hard not to like a concert by P!nk. She's just superb live - have seen her live 3 times so far, and it's just breathtaking.However, (and that's the reason why it didn't get 5 stars) I have to agree with other reviews that...1) The editing is pretty poor. Often it feels like you're watching a DVD of PInk's fans, rather than P!nk. I want to see her not them!! It's not like I was looking at them when I went to the concert.2) Nothing beats the Funhouse Tour. Nothing. She excelled herself in that one. I'd be amazed if she ever managed to beat that album and that live performance. Unfortunately (and understandably as she's now a Mum), her live stunts are a lot more conservative than they would have been before, so her live performance in this concert is less impressive than in Funhouse (still a million times more impressive than any other live performance by any other artist!!).

This blu ray is such a let down Pink as always is incredible but the thing that lets this release down so much is the camera work as previous reviews have mentioned the camera angles are always changing and its just not needed you miss a lot of the actual show due to this i bought this due to the insanely great Funhouse tour i may have to read reviews for next blu ray before i decide to get it!!5 stars for the vocals and the show...only wish you saw more of it!!

I can't understand all the negative comments about the editing of this dvd - yes there are a lot of cuts but I think they've done a fantastic job in capturing the vibrancy, the excitement and the sheer amount of 'stuff' that was going on at this brilliant concert.P!nk was absolutely outstanding and for anyone who is a fan but couldn't make it to the concert, you simply MUST buy this DVD.Her performance was flawless both vocally and also acrobatically and this footage really captures how much she puts into her shows and how much she just really enjoys herself when she's on stage.Brilliant concert, Brilliant DVD - can't wait for the next tour!

watched the download on amazon video last week bought the bluray version picture and sound great and a great concert as well there is a lot more to pink than some people will think we will watch this concert over and over

Truly spectacular, that woman is an incredible artist and performer, an amazingly beautiful and fun show!! I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to see a great show needs to get this! Beats the likes of Katy Perry etc hands down!
