Here are some opinions on it from back in the day:

QUOTE(Cremey @ Sep 4 2009, 10:26 PM)

I actually love the version with Katy Perry!
I liked the original, but the version with her is much better imo.
Hope it's a hit.

QUOTE(Hayzayy @ Sep 5 2009, 02:32 PM)

I love that new single

QUOTE(Jack @ Sep 8 2009, 04:18 PM)

This is my jam. I loved 'Don't Trust Me' but this is waaaay better, agree that Katy makes it much better too.

I never liked this one just quite annoying really!

This is a track that I always sort of forget to go back to but when I put it on, it is so incredibly difficult to not jam out to it. Far from an example of the epitome of pop greatness but it is so catchy and it never really gets old. Shout out to Katy for providing the best parts too of course.

I loved this at the time and I still do. A great dance tune.

Also a very early example of dubstep influence with the drop.

I miss 3OH!3. This, 'Don't Trust Me' and 'Double Vision' (as well as a couple of album tracks) were all legit bangers. This is incredible and Katy suited the song perfectly! Her middle-8 is one of my fave middle-8's <3

They were an awful bargain basement version of LMFAO or Chainsmokers.

Never liked this song but it was a hit for Katy and helped bridge a gap between songs so doubt she's complaining.

Still can't believe how well this did. 10 weeks top 10, 19 weeks top 40!! So cheesy but I totally love it, by far my favorite of her features!

Wow, I had no idea this was such a smash in the UK! It was a flop here which was a shame. I really liked 3OH!3. Streets of Gold (the album after this one) was actually an amazing album.

It's kinda funny that Katy has never done many collaborations, especially in between albums, I think it maybe due to the fact that they've never charted very high in the USA, despite doing really well here in the UK. Well anyway I don't find this one very good at all, at the time I found it pretty catchy, but now I just find it really annoying and badly dated and whatever happened to 30H!3, hell they didn't get very far and no wonder, they were awful and couldn't sing for shit, Katy tries her best to save this mess, but nothing can save this, it's just horrible.
