Teary Eyes was really close to the top 5 but I'd say any of the left to be revealed tracks are great anyway.

05 • Not The End Of The World

Average Score • 7.83


Highest • 11 • LMLou | davidas

Lowest 4 • blacksquare



I gave this one an 8 and honestly, since even posting my rate, I wish I'd given this one a lower score. It's alright. Not amazing. The video itself is a strange one. I can't even remember if there was a separate reason for why they used Zoe for most of the video aside from the fact that they thought it would be a cool idea for Zoe to impersonate Katy etc... The whole thing was just a bit eh for me now.

Having a song titled 'Not The End Of The World' in 2020 wasn't a smart move, I know this was probably conceived before the pandemic, but still Katy & her producers should have maybe changed the title as it's in very poor taste. The song itself is okay, but its hardly innovative, very formulaic & that interpolation of 'Na Na Hey Hey' at the end was very jarring & felt very random. Personally I'd have this a lot lower down in my ranking of this album.

'Harleys In Hawaii' to drop next.

Not the End of the World is too high and definitely not Top 5 for me!

I have no idea why Not The End Of The World has been so well received but it seems that Buzzjack does this sometimes laugh.gif also yes naming a song Not The End Of The World was a bad move I think.

04 • Harleys In Hawaii

Average Score • 8.00


Highest • 10 • J00ptstar | ...ready for it | 365 | JosephStyles | Tafty | ClaudiaKinkleman

Lowest 4 • JSG



So, it's my turn to have given a song the lowest score laugh.gif I was wondering if this would happen and it did! Eventually. Just took it's time. Personally I'm not a huge fan but with 6 10's it's not wonder it's done so well. I know this is a fan favourite so it makes sense. Quite surprisingly no one gave this an 11 which I find strange in the context of getting 6 10's when other songs with no 10's managed to get an 11. Anyway, Harleys In Hawaii ladies and gents!

'Harley's In Hawaii' has a really nice & chilled vibe to it with some unique textural flourishes enter the soundscape, bringing intrigue with them. This doesn't quite hold uo with some of Katy's more memorable & mammoth hits, but its a decent tune that deserved more success than it got. If the singles run went 'Never Really Over' - 'Cry About It Later' & then this, then I reckon this could have easily been more successful.

'Only Love' is beautiful, that and 'Tucked' deserved top 5!

03 • Daisies

Average Score • 8.13


Highest • 10 • JSG | Nina West | ...ready for it | troublepink | Dill Doe | Cameron

Lowest 3 • J00prstar (shame on you J00ps!)



Daisies is an absolute beautiful song and I find it so sad that it largely got swept under the rug. Thankfully in this rate everyone gave it's average to high marks except for J00prstar. A bloody 3, he gave it. Terrible. The video is lovely as well and it's quite different to anything else she's done before I feel like.
With a score of 8.13 it's clearly loved by the Buzzjack posters 🥰

Good results so far, I'd love for Daises to win but I think it'll be never really over, so hoping for daises to be number 2 cheer.gif

So, did you not notice I'd posted #3 just before you left your comment 😆

'Daisies' is a nice song, but it's definitely not among the best of the album for me and they shouldn't have singled it.

'Daises' is certainly one of the album's best tracks & maybe if this got released 3rd after 'Never Really Over' & 'Cry About It Later', then this would have been a much better & stronger run of singles.

I agree, I feel like I'd have liked it more if it wasn't a single.
