I need a lead single for this ASAP.

as IF Radar had any shot at being a hit single when it was released, please. Had it been released when BTI was, I guarantee you it would've done much better than that.

No it was awful. Monotonous autotune and boring. Only popular on fan forums but v. Basic.9

'Radar' was a huge hit in the making back in 2008. Overrated song and all (I find it quite hard to listen to now) but it was popular at the time and would have done a lot more than 'Break The Ice'. It's a huge pity it wasn't released back then.

 

EDIT: Really didn't notice I was in the Katy forum I'll be honest.

No it was awful.

 

No, it wasn't. The reaction when it came out was great, and it charted on hype alone. Would've been a great single in 2008, not after loads of singles and 2 albums...

I'm hoping she'll bring out a new album this year. I don't feel that her star has faded at all, she's just on the down low and as for album sales, Katy has always been more of a singles artist, than a album artist.

 

I still think "Prism" could have sold better, if the right singles were released. Things started going wrong with poor decisions such as "Birthday" and "This Is How We Do", being released over the amazing "Walking On Air", which would have definitely been a hit and much more successful than the other 2. I can understand "Birthday" being a single, as it was one of the standouts on Prism and got good critical reviews, but the latter, I mean come on, "TIHWD" is standard at best, and should NOT have been considered at all. "Legendary Lovers" was even a much better choice.

 

As for the new material, I actually can't wait and very excited, I wonder if that "She's So Creepy" song will turn out to be real. I'm hoping not, as I like the idea, just something more subtle with a more clever title.

Fan hype for a Robo Brit monotone dirge. Everyone NOT a fan complained about how bad and tuneless it was. Those albums weren't big hits sooo where was everyone who shoulda got it eh? Fan based hype.

So much hate for 'This Is How We Do' :( One of the better songs from a pretty unimpressive album in my opinion.

No. Fan base hype is what we saw happen with 'Pretty Girls'. Which is dreadful in comparison to the masterpiece that is 'Work Bitch'.

I agree this is how we do was a poor single choice from prism when walking on air was completely overlooked. I liked birthday though.

TBF their both about the same for me...

 

'Radar' is a great song. She ruined it herself and it still did well I'd say. Released 2 years too late (or 3 years if were to believe it was recorded in 06), with a video which was essentially a horse show commercial and it still managed to peak at #45 in the UK and get playlisted!

Katy has said that she's touring in 2017 so that makes me feel like the album is all the more likely to come at the end of this year!

Or Q2 of 2017 at this point.

 

I just really need her to release something soon.

She's been teasing new music recently on social media so it's coming soon!

Teasing how?!

Teasing how?!

 

Shes been posting videos of herself in the studio with a few seconds of clips playing in the background. The latest one I saw was where she'd coloured her front tooth in with sharpie with a track in the background :lol:

She's performing on the Grammys and probably the release of the new single will come this week as she has posted a video on instagram stories saying that it's a big week.

So excited for her Grammy's performance! Really hoping news about a new single are true! :o

The name of the single is "Chained To The Rhtyhm" and is featured by a reggae singer Skip Marley.
