Rap-Up.com || Pink Covers Alicia Keys’ ‘Girl on Fire’

From one pop superstar to the next. During her visit to BBC Radio 1 “Live Lounge,” Pink blazed the mic with a rocking cover of Alicia Keys’ “Girl on Fire.” The pop-rocker put her own spin on the female anthem, which received the stamp of approval from Alicia herself.

“Pink Your cover of #AKGirlOnFire made my DAY!!! Sending you much love!!!” she tweeted.

Is Pink’s cover hot or not? Sound off below.

She did amazing! This song fit her voice, perfectly. And she sounded a lot like Alicia. Slighty better, tbh.

WOAH!!!! I never really thought of it but this song suits P!NK so well. She did an amazing job like she ALWAYS does. One of the best musicians in the music industry IMO. She has had one hell of an amazing career.

I hate Pink, I really really hate her. But damn, I have to admit this sounds amazing. Her voice is much better for this song. When Alicia does it live she just screams and annoys me the whole song.

Shoulda been Pinks song!

Much better .. not that Alicia sang it bad, but it just sounds weird for her. Pink killed it, though. Love them both.

Pink did good. Brought it back to the R&B she started with but put her rock flare on it, too. People shouldn’t be hating. I’m sure Pink loves Alicia’s rendition of the song or she wouldn’t have covered that. We’ve heard her say several times in interviews that no one will ever hear her sing a Christina Aguilera song. So simply put: if she don’t like it she won’t sing it. I think it was a great cover of an already great song! Now who wants to see these two on stage TOGETHER performing this song? This guy right here does!

alicia’s career will go downhill. 161k is a major flop at number 1.

@Blah, P!nk said “and we have the same name” or something to that affect as to why she chose this song. That being the ‘second’ reason.

Much better than Keys.. Pink killed it live.. while Alicia in that MTV awards couldn’t barely breath/sing.. here’s where a performer shows its skills and pink is much better live performer than keys..

Pink rocked the heck out of this. Occasionally covers are better than the original, definitely the case here.
