Bon Appetit is better than most things tho.

 

This is still a cute little song.

I really like this

 

It’s a hit for sure not in a big euphoric way NRO was it’s more subtle than that.

 

I do like this though it’s catchy enough the verses are strong as is the chorus and it’s pretty relatable too.

 

As for as her second singles go I like it more than Unconditionally and Bon Appetit.

This is quite cute, it feels more Spotify than NRO so I think this may actually do better whereas NRO was more "perfect for the gays" :lol:

 

I can see this growing too, I found myself warming to it a little more as the first listen went on!

My first listen wasn't immediately blown away but I think following Never Really Over was near on impossible because it's SO euphoric that anything tamer feels like a bit of a comedown. But, this isn't Never Really Over and there's so much good about this.

 

The bridge is fantastic, very classic Katy and if it was paired with a different chorus, it'd be as much of a moment as "two years and just like that...". It's strange to have a Katy song feel like a grower because she's usually so instant with her melodies and in your face choruses because it does feel very typical of her still, especially the way it all comes together for the final chorus. A lovely earworm. One of her best and up there with Never Really Over? No. But, that's fine, I'll still be hammering it.

 

My biggest gripe is the middle 8 though, she's capable of so much better than "blah blah blah".

I LOVE THIS.

 

The final chorus is absolutely sensational.

The final chorus comes together SO strongly for me, seems strange to say nothing happens. There's a feel of Selena Gomez x Julia Michaels of it, like a 'Hands To Myself' or 'Bad Liar' but like... if it was done by Katy, aka properly sung and given her production and lyrical nuances that make everything feel so typically HER.

Yeah, there's some really strong flourishes on this. That ending really explodes.

 

It's a solid 7/10 to NRO's 11/10 for me right now.

I'd agree with that! Never Really Over, which I'm still not remotely tired, is making its way up to being one of my favourites of all time from her.

I actually could see this being a low top ten hit tbh. I wouldn’t be shocked at it peaking higher than Never Really Over.

Only listened once but I like it. The production during the last chorus really reminds me of another song though. Need to relisten later and think what it is aha.
'I've had every inch of your skin, there's nowhere your hands haven't been' - is pure filth.

The production flourish during the last chorus actually reminds me of Shout Out To My Ex.

 

I love this. Hope its another hit for her :heart:

My biggest gripe is the middle 8 though

Huh?! :wacko:

 

Bridge = Middle 8

Huh?! :wacko:

 

Bridge = Middle 8

 

Bridge = we went from strangers to lovers

Middle 8 = Blah Blah Blah Blah

 

A bridge is a pre-chorus, a middle 8 usually only happens towards the end of the song when building to the climax, like the 'boom boom boom' in firework or 'so let me get you in your birthday suit' from Birthday
