Speaking to Billboard Magazine in August 2012, Greg Kurstin revealed that he and the singer had trouble coming up with a name for the track.The producer had been working with Pink on an intense nine-day songwriting session that yielded six songs. One particular track, an empowering breakup anthem in the vein of "So What," seemed like it might be written and recorded within a day-it just needed a title. "She kept coming back to 'Let's throw in the towel,' and it was one of those things where we had to say, 'Is that line really the song?'" Kurstin recalled. "So then I came back with 'Blow me … one last kiss' and we got really excited. Most of the time with Pink she's so strong writing lyrics I don't really interfere. I let her do her thing. That could've been the only time I did that."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/480382/blow-me-up-the-man-behind-pinks-monster-hit )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blow Me (One Last Kiss)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
