34. Dressin' Up
00 points (Biggest fan: Nobody heehee.gif)



34. You Are in Love
00 points (Biggest fan: Nobody heehee.gif)



In joint last, we have one track from each artist. I'm a bit shocked at Dressing' Up doing so poorly considering it was chosen as our AFSC entry for best deluxe/bonus track so I assumed it was pretty popular. I guess that just speaks volumes about how poor her deluxe tracks are instead, oops heehee.gif

You Are in Love is pretty boring and it seems I'm not alone in thinking that either as no one even chucks it a single pity point cry.gif

So far...

32. Last Friday Night (feat. Missy Elliot)
05 points (Biggest fan: Juliano - 5 points)



31. Not Like the Movies
06 points (Biggest fan: Jade - 3 points)



Oops, it's not looking good for Katy Perry as two more of her tracks land near the bottom of the pile. The Missy Elliot remix of Last Friday Night ended up being a bit of a non-event in the end and I imagine that most people just listen to the original version nowadays, especially because it has such a good video that doesn't get old no matter how many times you replay it.

Not Like the Movies is a nice little ballad and I track that I really like returning to but it seems most people just didn't have enough room in their votes to throw it many points. Between two of the best pop albums this decade so far, this isn't the sort of track that stands out when there are so many amazing pop anthems to focus on instead.

So far...
31. Not Like the Movies (06 points)
32. Last Friday Night (feat. Missy Elliot) (05 points)

ohmy.gif 'Not Like The Movies' is criminally low! It's such a beautiful ballad wtf. We better not pay dust to 'Who Am I Living For?' as well.

Basically this! "Not Like the Movies" is really lovely and feels like a sequel to "Thinking of You". Definitely one of Katy's stronger ballads.

30. Pearl
07 points (Biggest fan: SeanGrey - 6 points)



29. Who Am I Living For?
12 points (Biggest fan: Jade - 7 points)



Things get worse for poor Katy as two more of her tracks drop out. That means 5 out of 6 at the bottom are Katy tracks, oops! laugh.gif Jade commented on how WAILF better not be paid dust and here it is in the next batch laugh.gif These are both quite nice tracks but Teenage Dream is full of some really amazing singles so I guess it is hard for the lesser known tracks to really compete. I am shocked some of the dull 1989 tracks like Clean and This Love aren't out yet though ohmy.gif

So far...

28. This Love
14 points (Biggest fan: JohnJames - 7 points)



27. How You Get the Girl
21 points (Biggest fan: Jonjo - 7 points)



Oops at the dodgy YouTube lyrics that are definitely not Taylor Swift but I guess 1989 is still rather exclusive so sorry about that! It's about time that some Taylor tracks finally started dropping out so we have two of them in this batch. "This Love" is pretty dull really with not much to it at all so would've been in my bottom three if I were to rank them myself, I'm shocked it's come as high as 28th to be quite honest ohmy.gif "How You Get the Girl" is a lot of fun though and is one of my highlights on 1989, I didn't have enough space in my votes to chuck it any points but I'm surprised at how under-rated it is here cry.gif

"Pearl" is quite nice but not a track that I go back to. No real surprises for the Taylor tracks but "Clean" has to leave next x

26. I Know Places
21 points (Biggest fan: UltraReputation - 13 points)



25. Clean
22 points (Biggest fan: Andrew - 10 points)



1989 is still not on YouTube for the most part so have these lovely chorus from random internet people smile.gif I'm completely shocked that Clean has managed to finish this high, it's always been the obvious weak point on the album for me and would firmly be at the bottom out of both of these albums, oops. I Know Place is a bit more exciting but nothing that thrilling, there are definitely much bigger highlights on both albums so #26 seems about fair.

So far...
25. Clean (22 points)

24. Peacock
22 points (Biggest fan: Harry - 10 points)



23. I Wish You Would
28 points (Biggest fan: Harry - 12 points)



One from each artist falls out in this batch. Peacock has never been one of my Katy favourites to be honest so I'm not too gutted about it being pretty low, it's a bit too cheesy for me and is probably the biggest dud on Teenage Dream for me. I guess it's fun if you're drunk enough but I don't like listening to it on my own ever as it cringes me out a little bit.

I Wish You Would is a lovely little track and is yet another one of the very high quality tracks on 1989. It's not as good as the singles really so I'm not fussed about it being fairly low when I look what is still to come. I do like hearing it on the album though and it's probably one of my album track highlights from any of Taylor's albums.

So far...
23. I Wish You Would (28 points)
24. Peacock (22 points)
25. Clean (22 points)

"I Know Places" and "Clean" are shit. "Peacock" is such fun, probably one of Katy's campest classics.

22. Part of Me
33 points (Biggest fan: Joseph - 12 points)



21. Wonderland
38 points (Biggest fan: JohnJames - 10 points)



Oops, we have our first single fall out now as Part of Me fails to even make the top 20. It seems to be pretty disliked on here for a Katy Perry song which is a shame as I've always quite liked it - I was OBSESSED with it when it first debuted and although it admittedly hasn't stood the test of time as well as some of the Teenage Dream singles, I do find it pretty catchy and certainly under-rated here on Buzzjack... sad.gif

So far...

22. Part of Me (33 points)

"Part of Me" is probably the worst single from 'Teenage Dream' but "Bad Blood" (both versions!) beating it is just wrong.

20. Circle the Drain
42 points (Biggest fan: HarryEzra - 18 points)



19. Hummingbird Heartbeat
43 points (Biggest fan: Joe - 13 points)



Another two Katy tracks drop out in this batch meaning she has lost 9 tracks so far compared to just 7 for Taylor ohmy.gif Hummingbird Heartbeat is FAR too low and really should be competing for top 10 in my opinion, it really is the single that never was and it's such a shame she never pushed it as I'm sure it would have been yet another worldwide smash for her. Circle the Drain has a banging chorus too so I'm glad that has made top the top 20. Both of these would be higher in my own personal rankings than the likes of "All You Had to Do Was Stay", "Style" & the Kanye version of "ET" which are all still yet to come sad.gif

So far...
