"Pink" is a song by American rock band Aerosmith. It was written by Steven Tyler and professional songwriters Richie Supa and Glen Ballard. It was released as the third major single from Nine Lives in 1997.

The song reached No. 27 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 38 in the United Kingdom, and No. 19 in Latvia. It also topped the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart for four weeks.

The band re-released the song in the United Kingdom in 1999. The re-released version did much better, reaching No. 13.

The song is highlighted by a harmonica performance by Steven Tyler at the beginning, as well as a strong bass rhythm throughout the song, and a mix of acoustic guitars and jangling electric guitars throughout the verses.

Many of the lines in the verses start with the word "pink" (e.g. "Pink it's my new obsession ", "Pink it's not even a question", "Pink on the lips of your lover"). The song is also highly suggestive, in that the origin of the fascination with pink stems from the admiration of a woman's reproductive organs, particularly the inner side of the outer lips – the "pink in the middle" – and also the man's penis – "I wanna wrap you in rubber" and "my favorite crayon".

The music video for the song used CGI to morph characters' faces to other bodies. A variety of random characters mixed in with band members moving towards the camera, morphing into different characters in the process (e.g., Joe Perry as a centaur, Brad Whitford as a little boy, Steven Tyler as a skeleton, and a boy dressed as the Easter Bunny). It was directed by Doug Nichol.

The video starts with Tyler playing the harmonica, followed by Perry cleaning his face thinking he's using a mirror, Whitford putting his sunglasses on, dressing as a race car driver, Tom Hamilton shows his closeup and Joey Kramer walking forward until the viewer sees a closeup of him. Tyler sings the first verse, morphed as a boy dressed as the Easter Bunny. While he is singing the first verse, random people appear: a woman dressed as a biker, a woman dressed in a blue jumpsuit begins to unzip her jumpsuit, a shirtless man wearing red parachute pants dancing, an elderly woman showing her flexible strength and an elderly woman dancing randomly.
