This is so disappointing.  It's not offensively bad like Woman's World, but it feels like a faceless EDM collab from 2015.  I'm shocked by how bad Luke's production has been with these singles.

 

Maybe she needs to call Zedd, he's the only one who's done anything positive for her in the last five years  

I love her work with Zedd. I wouldn't mind a whole album with him even if it's only 365 level success. 

 

 

The hate for this is unwarranted tbh 

 

It's a summer bop.  This is coming from someone who couldn't care less about Miss Perry

Me too, I strongly believe Zedd, Greg Wells and Greg Kurstin are the best producers for Katy. I'm sure an album made only by them would be her greatest and most acclaimed ever. Manifesting this to happen in the future🙏🏻

If I have the chance to meet Katy at meet&greets I'll tell her. Not me acting like her new manager

I'm actually enjoying this. It's perfect for the end of summer

 

This is a cute bop

This is good it just feels like it should've been released in like 2020. 

Keep rising on AM in my country. 

nobody's listening to this omg

it's a bop 

This era is crazy it seems out of touch but also like she's doing her own thing but also like she's trying to be overly simple to be able to market herself to as many people as possible

I was really rooting for Katy but I have no idea what's going to happen with this album... 

 

Woman's World is a fun song but the lyrics are awful and now Lifetimes....is fun, but like, a bit forgettable. I wonder what the thinking process behind releasing these really was...

Keep rising, and the rest of the world will follow! 

What׳s the point of this when superior nostalgic bop Walking On Air already exists?

I really do not understand why didn't Luke gave her a song on the level of Kim's Claws, Icy, Sweet Spot or King Of Hearts. If she came with something like that as the lead everyone would be bowing down to her.

the way i'm listening to woman's world more than this already dddd

 

the repetitive chorus being the entire song doesn't help the replay value for me 

I'd rather listen to the AI version of WW, that guitar bridge clears the entirety of the actual song.

 

While I do like Lifetimes and it is a fun bop, I agree that it is repetitive and am disappointed that the song doesn't have much to offer apart from what was teased. The sole verse is weak, and there was no bridge to really seal the deal. This era of Katy Perry lacks the polish that she had even in her Smile era. I blame you-know-who for this.

 

I hope there are some hidden gems in the album, but I am losing hype for this era. Please let Nirvana be good!

I believe this could potentially do well in the UK - it's radio candy and, with the right radio play and TikTok promo, it has the potential to become a top 10 hit for her here. To be honest, this is something the GP in Europe and radio would eat up

Lifetimes is definitely a promo single, Katy used it to distract people from Woman's World controversy. Oh, her mind!

 

Next single: I'm His, He's Mine (if she's using that video she already shooted)

It needs to be Gimme Gimme.

also we didn't get the vinyl with Lifetimes which makes me think it wasn't planned…

But she shooted I'm His He's Mine music video, so I don't think it will happen. Maybe Gimme Gimme could be a single after the album release if it sticks with people.

These singles are made of teflon -- ain't nothin gonna stick to the charts.  She sold her integrity a long time ago and this is what an expired manufactured pop star looks like.

There's no reason to release more songs, we already have two of them and the album has only 11 tracks in total. 
They should just make Lifetimes an official single, send it to radio and give it more playlist exposure. 

 

i'm slowly getting addicted to this

 

I wish this one had an extended version. The lyrics being simplistic and repetitive is the point, but it still lacks a little personality. If she could release a version with a second verse and more adlibs in the final chorus, it would be on par with the heavenly bop Walking On Air. It has so much potential to be excellent but right now, it's WoA's boring sister.

 

Dua's Anything for Love has this same issue.

This fan mash up is better than the actual song imo:

 

I know you feel it

Can you believe it?

I'm gonna love you 'til the end and then repeat it

I know you feel it

Can you believe it?

I'm gonna love you 'til the end and then repeat it
 

Wow I'm eating the words of my last comment, Lifetimes spread throughout me like an infection and I'm obsessed. It's such a fun song!!!
