Please keep discussion in this thread focused on the song. Discussions about Katy Perry's larger scale career/choices, and other artists should NOT be done here. There are plenty of other places to do so on ATRL. Thank you!

    Producer: Dr. Luke   she really wants to bury herself this era... there's no way

  • It's missing the Katy Perry touch that could turn a basic pop song into something unique.    It's giving Eurovision 

  • sorry but sounds like a Moldavia eurovision entry. It's not this song is gonna save something. 

The way some random music video that she made while in Ibiza is so much better than the "WOMAN'S WORLD" one. :skull:

Love the song. The only weak point is the hollow sounding verse, but thankfully most of the song focuses on the fun chorus, so no problem. 

 

Also, the vocal production seems robotic to me a bit. Though I guess that fits the theme of this album.

not me watching the video more times already than the World War one :rip: just her having fun, looking happy is so refreshing, no cringe for once too

 

i love this woman, i wanna go clubbbbing 

It works so good with the vibes of the song 

 

This is a bop, I already played more than WW :clap3:

This is such a huge upgrade from Woman's World..

 

Might be generic, and repetitive but I can see this doing good on radio cause it's easy to listen at.

 

Hope this would save the 143 era from being a colossal bomb

Did she really work with Luke just to produce stuff like this? He couldn't even give her a Say So type of song or something? She's releasing the most generic and uninspired kind of music of her career.

Dang, Capitol really said, NO BUDGET FOR YOU.

 

Considering the bar was in hell, this at least looks and sounds better than WW, but like WW, it goes nowhere. It's the same thing over and over again lyrically. It'll do nothing commercially but I commend her for not giving up lol.

i mean duh the song/vid are supposed to be dated, it's heavily inspired by 2010 which was the thing that everyone asked her to do on tiktok so...?

 

everyone can rip off 80s disco and synthpop and it's fine but it's DaTeD to do 2010 club sound ala Inna? please, it's a harmless party bop that people wanted from Katy

would it be any more "inspired" to release 100th song that sounds like Say So this decade?

Sounds like the kind of thing Ella Henderson usually jumps on, but honestly I don't necessarily mean that as a drag. There's room for this on UK (and other European countries) radio. It'll be interesting if the Luke tag hinders this though.

Ngl the production is f**king stunning. Well done Puke
 

Verses are a bit awkward. She has this quacky inflection moment in the pre chorus that is very unpleasant 

 

"BABY you and me"


I'll give it a B- but it's still worth throwing ass to

I've been listening to it for two hours straight! I LOVE IT :clap3:

wow it's a bop :katie2: feel sorry for those who can't just enjoy things

Sure, this a bit generic, but it also serves!! The production is particular is strong.

I think I liked the snippet of this more than the song now that it's out.. I'm not really feeling it. It's OK.

The verses on Woman's World were horribly produced too. The only way I can describe it is it feels like jump cuts in a video. So annoying to listen to. Puke has lost it. Also her voice is giving AI on the bridge again. What is he doing. The chorus is cute but the final one needed some ad libs.

All those writers for literally 4 lines that aren't repeated :deadbanana4: after a few more listens its definitely an 7.5-8/10
