November 9, 200816 yr I think it's gonna be an other big hit for her, the song is ACE ! :dance: It got a cool vibe and the lyrics are great again ! Actually most of the album tracks would make great singles ! :wub:
November 10, 200816 yr I think people arguing about which song should or should not be released from an album (and not just Katy Perry's, but any album really...) is largely irrelevant... The singles market is up the sh!tter and has been since the mid-80s, singles don't make any money(in fact, they probably make a loss if anything for the most part when you take into account marketing, production and promotion costs, and the costs of shooting a video), they only serve a purpose now to sell or boost the sales of an album or to sell Tour tickets (which is where artists DO actually make money...). You could release tracks on MySpace or Bebo, people could download it for nowt, put the video on YouTube (another incredibly effective marketing tool to sell albums...), and it wouldn't make much overall difference...
November 10, 200816 yr I think she'll get a hit. I remember the doubters who thought IKAG would be a one hit wonder...
November 10, 200816 yr It is still to be seen wherever she'll have a long lating career though, as an prediction id say she probably has. Also the singles are rather relevant since they need to pick the best (or what will be best recieved really) to help sell the album and the tour.

Instead, she has had two huge hits to her name, generating more media attention (I see her in the papers everyday for some reason or another) and constantly bringing 'the Katy Perry brand' to a wider audience... let's imagine if Rihanna had chosen to come back in 2006 with We Ride instead of SOS...that would have been the end of her career
January 18, 200916 yr Katy won "International Album of the Year" at the NRJ Music Awards last night ! (France) :dance:
January 19, 200916 yr Sorry if this has already been posted but a new video for 'Thinking of You' has been made and put on VirginMedia on demand. They're saying it's the next single :huh: kht-D9AcJqY
January 20, 200916 yr That song IS the next single! :P I really don't get how people say it's ''atrocious'' or ''shockingly bad'', it's a pretty good song full of emotion. Well to me at least. :/
January 20, 200916 yr That song IS the next single! :P I really don't get how people say it's ''atrocious'' or ''shockingly bad'', it's a pretty good song full of emotion. Well to me at least. :/ Nope i agree. Great song
January 21, 200916 yr Ah sorry I thought I saw that OOTB was posted on here as being the next one :lol:
June 20, 20232 yr @1671238400978956294 I have never really got into this album but might relisten because of the anniversary edition.
June 22, 20232 yr I'm really liking "A Cup of Coffee". It's new to me!! Edited June 22, 20232 yr by Josh!
June 22, 20232 yr Re-listening to this to celebrate the 15th Anniversary. I love this album so much. I HAVE to skip 'Ur So Gay' every time. Not only due to it's nature but just because it's just shit. :lol: 'If You Can Afford Me' is pretty underrated! 01. Self Inflicted 02. Lost > Incredibly underrated. What a beauty. < 03. Hot N Cold 04. If You Can Afford Me 05. One Of The Boys 06. I'm Still Breathing 07. Waking Up In Vegas 08. Fingerprints 09. Thinking Of You 10. Mannequin --- 11. I Kissed A Girl > I really don't like this one either lmao. I mean it's alright, but it's so BASIC and boring. It's all gimmick to me. < 12. Ur So Gay Not heard 'A Cup of Coffee' or 'I Think I'm Ready' before, I don't think.
September 21, 20231 yr My top 3 : One Of The Boys (it's her best song), I Kissed A Girl, Ur So Gay.After it : Hot And Cold, Waking Up In Vegas.Only one her album, which I love. Edited March 17Mar 17 by Last Dreamer
September 22, 20231 yr Album is AWFUL. Thinking of Protoscreech is one of the worst songs ever recorded!! Just shockingly bad. I Kissed A Girl is so beige and boring, Ur So Gay is just cringe and an attempt at being cool. That leaves two good songs - Vegas and Hot n Cold...
