video for the song began filming on October 4, 2010, and is Pink's twelfth collaboration with Dave Meyers. It is based around one of Pink's real-life experiences, and features a celebration of gay marriage, expressing her views that people should not feel any differently towards gay marriage than straight marriage. Pink commented on the video in an interview for MTV: "I threw my best friend's wedding in my backyard — she is lesbian and she married her wife, and it was absolutely beautiful. At the end of it, her mom said, 'Why can't this be legal?' and started crying. It was just the most heartbreaking thing I've ever seen, so that's why I'm doing it in my video." Synopsis The music video has scenes that include a skateboarding setting, which is reminiscent of Pink's debut music video for "There You Go," and a scene in a high school prom where Pink sniffs under her arm, the same thing she did in the music video for "Get the Party Started." The final scenes show a girl crying during her graduation, a reference to Pink's success in delivering her message after years since her debut. In several sequences Pink is shown depicting the iconography of Rosie the Riveter on the "We Can Do It!" poster. The video was released on Pink's official website Tuesday, November 1, 2010, at 6PM EST. Live performances "Raise Your Glass" serves as the opening song of The Truth About Love Tour. Pink performed the song live at American Music Awards of 2010 at Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. Other versions In 2011, the Maccabeats, an a cappella group from Yeshiva University, did a parody of the song called "Purim Song", referring to Jewish holiday Purim. "Purim Song" charted in the top 10 of Billboard Comedy Digital Songs.
