# Trustfall (song)

"Trustfall" is a song by American singer Pink, released as the second single from her ninth studio album Trustfall on January 27, 2023. The EDM and synth-pop song was co-written by Pink with Johnny McDaid and Fred Again, who also both produced the song.

## Composition

"Trustfall" has been described as a "synthpop club banger" and an "emotional electro anthem", eschewing her "signature pop-rock sound". The song contains a "driving EDM beat" and "emotionally fraught lyrics" about confronting fear and trusting things will work out.

## Critical reception

The song earned generally positive reviews from music critics. John Murphy from musicOMH declared "Trustfall" to be "up there with some of her best work" and described it as "a pulsating electro-anthem that's [...] reminiscent of Robyn." Similarly, Michael Cragg, writing for The Guardian, called the "pulsating, Robyn-like" song one the "few pleasing tangents" on its parent album, while PopMatters critic Jeffrey Davies noted that the "EDM production [..] begs to be put on repeat." Ed Power from The Irish Examiner found the song to be a "brooding bopper, with Pink pushing her husky vocals to breaking point as house honcho Fred Again layers in bright, bouncy grooves."
Lucy Case of Renowned for Sound called the song a "modern EDM anthem packed with P!nk’s soaring vocals." while Sam Damshenas noted that "Trustfall" "marks a huge departure from P!nk’s signature pop-rock sound with a pulsating EDM beat." Arwa Haider from Financial Times found that the "EDM-fuelled title track [...] could have connected emotionally. But the usually intrepid Fred Again sounds restrained here in a generic "epic groove," albeit one elevated by Pink's vocals." Less impressed, Kate French-Morris from The Telegraph called "Trustfall" a "robustly bland hit." In a negative review, Roisin O'Connor from The Independent wrote: "The title track borrows too heavily from Robyn's playbook and consequently only serves to remind you that the "Dancing On My Own" artist does it better."
