Get the Party Started was released in 2001 as the lead single from P!nk's second album Missundaztood, written by Linda Perry. Its opening lyric became the song's most quoted hook as the track reached charts worldwide and stayed in party playlists, radio rotation and early music video culture. Online, editors isolated that first line because it works without context, signalling a start in seconds. The short form survives on soundboards and in edits where a familiar pop entrance is more effective than a generic countdown or intro sting today.
