It is crazy how difficult it is to rank them. :rip:But I will try like this:

 

1. Firework - basically a classic anthem for every celebration

2. Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) - it will always be relevant every single Friday

3. The One That Got Away - I would say this is the single of the album that stood the test of time the best and will be one of her signature hits when it's all said and done

4. Teenage Dream - the cult classic, but I think it is overshadowed compared to the first three on my list

5. California Gurls - a tough one because everything around this song is perfect, but...

6. E.T. - which is shocking considering how popular it was initially

 

I would say that E.T. is the only one without any significant impact. But I wouldn't be shocked if it goes viral in the near future. :rip:

LFN is lowkey a classic ngl.

 

I think out of all the singles, this had the most replay value I've heard throughout the years.

Pretty much this. If you told me 13 years ago that LFN and TOTGA would be more remembered than E.T. and rival Firework, Teenage Dream Greatest and California Gurls, I wouldn't believe you

These numbers :WAP:

NOBODY is topping this era in pop music ever again. It was the last of its kind. 

 

i think impact-wise it's:

1. Firework

2. California Gurls

3. Teenage Dream

4. Last Friday Night

5. The One That Got Away

6. ET

7. Wide Awake

8. Part of Me

 

of course this ranking is based on overall impact and recognizability among the public. Recurrent streams-wise it's different.

I would say it's only a matter of time before ET goes viral. If Wide Awake can go viral, why not ET lol.

Wow tough question

 

I just know that ET is the least impactful, unfortunately. It's the best

Firework is the easy answer but I feel like it's not as known as its stats suggest??!?? Might be bc I'm european and some of the other singles felt bigger.

 

Time being the ultimate truth teller though, I think that TGIF came out of nowhere and scalped the other girls. Don't know how it happened but I hear it on the radio and on some local tv commercials lately.

It's crazy how E.T. was the biggest single from the album at the time and now it's the most forgotten.

Firework > LFN > TOTGA > CG/TD > ET

Longevity, recognizability by the GP and cultural relevance

So...

"Firework" > "Last Friday Night (TGIF)" > "Teenage Dream" > "California Gurls" = "The One That Got Away"
