"Walking On Air" is far more interesting to me. Judging by the clips.

Pre-order now up on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/prism-del...;ign-mpt=uo%3D4

 

Deluxe edition with 16 tracks.

I don't really like either clip :(

Dark Horse will appearently feature Juicy J

Ugh. I really don't want any (non-pop) features from her, we've seen with "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" and "The One That Got Away"'s remixes that they just don't work! "E.T." was a one-off.

Good lord Juicy J gets around EVERYWHERE now, what's the appeal? Shame he's usually the weakest link in everything he's involved with too.

Missy in Last Friday Night >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Kanye in E.T.

 

:wub:

 

Can imagine it looking glorious in better quality and much more raw than her other covers.

7. This Is How We Do

8. International Smile

12. By the Grace of God

 

Legendary Lovers

- Sample lyrics: “Take me down to the river/ Underneath the ____/ Say my name like a scripture/ Keep my heart beating like a drum/ Legendary lovers, legendary lovers, legendary lovers”

- There’s a breakdown in the song that makes you want to belly dance. There’s a howl toward the end.. “Ah-who-o-o-o!”

 

Birthday

- Sample lyrics: “I’ll give you a taste/ Make you lick your body every day/ Give you something to satisfy… Give you something good to celebrate/ I know you like it sweet/ Make it like your birthday everyday.”

- The breakdown: “Let me get you in your birthday suit.”

- Song ends with a whisper, “happy birthday”

 

Walking on Air

- She was inspired by a “Central Park Day” where she was eating hot dogs with a friend and watching roller skaters perform to deep house music.

- Very 90′s dance divas a la CeCe Peniston and Crystal Waters.

- Sample lyrics: “Just when I think I can’t take anymore/ We go deeper and hotter than ever before/ We go higher and higher, I feel like I’m already there/ I’m walking on air tonight”

 

Unconditionally

- Sample lyrics: “Did I almost sin… all your insecurities…” Chorus: “Unconditional, unconditionally/ I will love you unconditionally. There is no fear now… I love you conditionally.”

 

Dark Horse (feat. Juicy J)

- The urban song has Juicy rapping “She’s a beast” of Katy.

- Sample lyrics: “So you wanna play with magic/ Boy you should know what you’re falling for/ Baby do you dare to do this/ Cause I’m coming at you like a dark horse.. Are you ready for, ready for/ Perfect storm, perfect storm/ Cuz once you’re mine, once you’re mine”

 

This Is How We Do

- Club banger

- Sample lyrics: “Chanel this, Chanel that, hell yeah… Street stuntin’ ya we do it like that/ Yeah this is how we do.. Bring the beat back”

 

International Smile

- Upbeat, dancey song written for her DJ BFF Mia Moretti. Katy shared, “She travels all around the world. She’s my muse. Don’t tell my other friends.”

- Sample lyrics: “That girl’s a trip, one way ticket/ Takes you miles high, cause she’s got that one international smile.”

 

Double Rainbow

- Wrote this melodic mid-tempo song with Greg Kurstin and Sia.

- Sample lyrics: “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure/ The two of us together… So if it’s up to me, I’m gonna keep you forever… Brighter than the Northern Lights… Like a double rainbow in the sky… double rainbow time flies”

 

By the Grace of God

- This ballad closes out the regular record.

- Sample lyrics: “Lay on the bathroom floor/ Couldn’t take it anymore… By the grace of God/ I looked in the mirror and decided to stay/ Wasn’t gonna let love take me out… I thank my sister for keeping my head above the water… Every morning, I finally see myself again… Universe calling my bluff”

 

I imagine the song Emeli wrote for her is on the deluxe edition, then, just like Half of Me in Rihanna's case.

If she's included it at all, that is... :P

 

The album cover looks interesting, should definitely look fantastic in high quality like Haus said. Loving those descriptions of the songs also, actually really looking forward to this!

Well Emeli has spoken a fair bit about it, and how great it was to work with Katy on the song, and they had a session for it, so I'm presuming it will be included in one way or another, whether that be on the standard (and she just hasn't been credited by Just Jared), or a song on the deluxe edition.

 

Agreed about the cover, though, that's beautiful, and looking forward to seeing it in HQ.

Hmm, I like the border around it and stuff but I don't LOVE the cover, it all looks a bit cheap.

I think it's going to look stunning as the lenticular cover!

Omg yes! :wub: I really do like that cover (but it still doesn't look like it's HQ).

I really, really hate it. Horrible picture, horrible filter, horrible border and horrible font. My excitement has gone completely downhill after learning that Juicy J(?!) will feature on the second single and now this. I'm yet to watch the music video to "Roar" though, so hopefully it's not a third disappointment.

I adore that cover, very different to anything I've seen and so beautiful.

Letdown compared to her other album covers :(

Not a great album cover. :(

What a horrible cover! It's the sort of cover B*Witched would have had in the 90s
