katy perry - prism

The speed with which Unconditionally plummeted on radio once the next single was announced was funny. It was like programmers couldn't wait to stop playing it.

looool totally

I mean if you're a fan and you're going to be purchasing album tracks early it's probably going to be the one you rallied behind previously (plus, 30-second snippets are basically standard anymore)

xp US radio amazes me. It took six months for a song as strong as Still Into You to become an airplay hit?

now that "unconditionally" has flopped by her standards i've begun to appreciate it

haha i've heard it a couple times in the last week and been like "yup, this was terrible, glad i didn't have to hear this around the clock"

I didn't realize "English speakers who sing English as if it's their third/fourth language" was a pet peeve of mine until I heard "Unconditionally"

unconditionally makes me lol every single time

of all the katy perrys of the world she's the katy perryest

I just can't stop listening to Birthday. It has everything I want from a pop song!

damn this album is so unfairly panned. at least 3 pop gems there.

out of like 16 tracks? how is that not a terrible ratio

depending on your interpretation of "gems" vs. "hits" teenage dream had about the same ratio

"dark horse" is kinda just a more tolerable version of "ET" isn't it

Except with more trap and less aliens and less "All the Things She Sad".

Forget what u said. It's a pretty boring album except for roar, unconditionally, and the second track

*I

i hope to hear "birthday" on the radio sometime later this year but yeah most of the album was pretty forgettable

"dark horse" is kinda just a more tolerable version of "ET" isn't it

dont forget "moments in love"-style synths. shit is the jams.

Spiritual is the real jam on this - love this droney bass during the verses (a bit of a smilar thing in Roar), could be a BoC instrumental.

^ this

heard "Birthday" on the radio the other day, pretty glad if that's the next single

yeah "birthday" is the jam

ridic

Birthday and Walking on Air are the two takeaways for me from this album so I'm not mad I'll be hearing this on the radio instead of Black Horse.

dark horse owns, into it way more than ET

Quite like the new single but the new video is just horrible. Think it's a huge misfire on every level.

yeah the video doesn't really work at all. it'll be a good radio jam anyway.

tbf even with at least a handful of good/tolerable singles, "Teenage Dream" is still pretty much her only video that isn't embarrassing on several levels

Still can't deal w her voice. Very yelpy

Jeez- first MIA and now Katy Perry, what is his secret?

http://www.eonline.com/news/587471/katy-perry-keeping-her-relationship-with-diplo-undercover-find-out-why

dating someone THAT famous seems like a minefield, i can't really fault anyone for trying to maintain some control and discretion tbh

you have to laugh at grown men sitting around listening to katy perry!

just my $0.02

well consider your invitation to my boys-only katy perry listening circle rescinded

One of my born-again friends on fb is losing his shit today because the choir sang "Roar" in church this morning.

lolol

so i really want to like bonnie mckee but this is excruciating https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ6BRY16jHo

"American Girl" was nothing if not excruciating (and "nothing" is a viable option)

I mean it's a holiday song

/special

with karmin and that violin star and etc. its like now that she went indie after not breaking on a major she's hanging with a whole bunch of youtube-famous viral ppl. i like the california winter single itself, but also generally bonnie mckee is a very boring lyricist.

the karmin performance is even by the standards of karmin performance something.. else

don't like the treatment of the vocals on that holiday song, otherwise I would have dug it (if I'd heard it at the appropriate time)

why new kp single debuts at no. 76 on hot 100

NEW JERSEY

Doesn't a New Jersey require its singles to be hits though?

Or did you mean Prism is a New Jersey?

Prism=New Jersey, yes

why new kp single debuts at no. 76 on hot 100

Cause its gross.
