taste doesnt seem a hit outside of first week nor the rest of album, well she is fine with two smash anyways

I think expecting the album to have 5 number one hits is too much.  But it could easily be one of the biggest eras of the decade.

I doubt she will promote this album for as long

Taste + Juno have high hit potential, release a deluxe with final 5th single and maybe!

Posted

yup, I think she could have 5 big hits with this album.

There will never be another Teenage Dream, an album where every single was a mini-era, where the GP was perched and that went on for a year and a half WITHOUT the need for a re-release (two years and a half with the re-release). It's simply impossible in the streaming era. The last Teenage Dream-esque eras were My Everything/1989.

The last era that feels on par with these two is (as others have mentioned) Future Nostalgia, which isn't totally wrong but still didn't have as many smashes as TD, ME or 1989 did. 

 

OT: No, and that's ok! It doesn't need to be. As big as Espresso and PPP are, they are not even close to being California Gurls or TD level ubiquity/domination. Taste will probably be a cute hit in its own right but isn't looking like a monster smash (at least right now). There are definitely other good single choices on this album tho that will continue to carry it

Nope. The singles are  not giving me classics at all. Expresso sounds like a lot of other songs that have been hits this decade and the latest one is just very forgettable. None of the songs can be compared to Teenage Dream, TOTGA or even California Gurls. PPP is the one with the most personality and it might have some staying power though. 

I don't mean to diminish Katy's legacy or that album but teenage dream is in no way an innovative or unique album.

Not when Future Nostalgia exists

ppp was the only song to hit #1 and was only able to hold to the top spot for one week. be serious for once. this era isn't even comparable to thank u next.

I'm afraid this title already unanimously (for the most part) belongs to Future Nostalgia. Hit after hit after hit.. yea they're not all #1s. But in the Tiktok/streaming era, that doesn't really matter when every single was a smash on social media.

no, i dont think Jack is a rapist, unlike luke :giraffe:

No. It a cute album but that's it

Yes, I beweave that Sabrina will have 7#1s off the album, enough to leave FN trembling, broken and bleeding afterwards. Good Graces is just that great.

planet her = a hybrid of teenage dream and pink friday

future nostalgia = loose

sour = a hybrid of the fame and baby one more time

sos = fearless

short n sweet = a hybrid of 1989 and the dutchess

the rise and fall of a Midwestern princess = hybrid of the fame and born to die

In terms of sales and impact? No, but it's better than any Katy album that isn't OOTB and showcases more artistry than Katy ever put in her music so it doesn't matter.

Huh? You just need 6 big hits and you can package them with turds like Katy did with TD

Yes. "Bed Chem", "Good Graces" and "Juno" are hits. The whole album is effortless. It feels iconically American in a way that Teenage Dream also felt. Like, she is the living fantasy of the American girl. For better or worse. That's why she's blown up so much, she's embodying that ideal right now. Sassy, clever, cute, daisy dukes bikinis on top.

Ooo...I'm loving these parallels. Never considered some of them before, and they make complete sense.

 

Particularly "Future Nostalgia" and "Loose", both representing an exciting new direction for the artists, having massive US hits as well as successful songs that resonated more with European audiences, and even having a hit collaboration associated with the era ("Cold Heart" and "Give It To Me").

 

I'd also add Bruno Mars' 2010 debut "Doo W0ps & Hooligans" as part of "SOUR" 's equivalents, mostly because both albums have pretty well-known tracks that were never pushed as singles ("Count On Me" and "Talking To The Moon" for Bruno, also "Runaway Baby" to a lesser extent; "favorite crime" and "happier" for Olivia, also "brutal" to a lesser extent).
