Posted January 25Jan 25 Looks like this will be Katy's next release, which is already registered. The track is co-written by her, alongside Eren Cannata, Daniel J. Crean, Jason Gill, Amanda Renee Ibanez, Skyler Stonestreet and Justin Drew Tranter.
February 19Feb 19 Hopefully it’s better than Bandaids. That one was a one and done listen for me sadly.

June 16Jun 16 I have heard Watch it Burn and it is a lot better than anything she has released since the Smile era, thankfully. I don't really see her ever getting a hit again but I think this song will bring her a bit more goodwill with pop fans. It's very Part of Me/Hot N Cold coded. And has a great chorus and outtro, even if it does feel admittedly a bit nostalgia-bait dated. Edited June 18Jun 18 by 365
June 16Jun 16 The snippet she’s uploaded on TT sounds SO GOOD! I could it see potentially doing something off the back of her catalogue streaming well and it sounding extremely catchy without being cringe!!
June 18Jun 18 Bandaids was by far the best thing she has done since Never Really Over and I’m sad that didn’t manage to become even close to successful, although with how much she did her reputation in within the last few years I can’t be too surprised. Hope this can be just as good!
June 19Jun 19 She performed the song live at a show and it’s not that great (her voice isn’t all that great on it although it may be better in studio version) but it sounded pretty dated and not too dissimilar from some of her earlier work just watered down.
