Composition

"Today's the Day" is a song written by Pink and Greg Kurstin with inspirational lyrics about seizing the day and not wanting to let it end.[3][4] The song has been praised for combining Pink's signature sound with the show's "feel-good vibe", but has also been noted as overly-familiar thematic territory for the singer.[4][5]

Live performances

Pink performed the song live on the September 10, 2015 episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which for premiere week was being shot in New York City.[6]
