deepdiving katy perry’s entire discography (a thread)
ok omfg we’re starting now so the rules are that i’m going to be reacting to katy’s 4 studio albums (and Smile when it’s released)
album 1: one of the boys
one of the boys: my initial reaction is that it kind of sounds like sims music 
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> SHE SOUNDS SO YOUNG AW it sounds very 2008 which i love. it’s a cute opener. kind of long and gets a bit repetitive but it’s cute
i kissed a girl: an ICONIC SONG OMFG i remember my mom wouldn’t let me listen to it pls https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> i have nothing negative to say about it tbh
waking up in vegas: omfg i love the rock influences that this album has already also the coin slots at the beginning is such a clever touch https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> WAIT I RECOGNISE THIS SONG OMFGGGG i didn’t really like the beginning but i really love the chorus which is the most important thing
thinking of you: ok omfg the first ballad-like song on the album... i cant get over how young she sounds pls https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> this is... SO GORGEOUS????? i’m obsessed chile omfg... the lyrics are so stunning as well which is super important for a ballad-like song
jesus christ i LOVE this song bye https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">
mannequin: again... sims music https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> i think it’s just the instrumental but it literally is sims music. the lyrics are cute that’s about it tbh... not my fav :/
ur so gay: https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> that one lyric aside this song is ok. i love a good broody song and even though the subject matter is so fucked it’s literally so funny and the instrumental is a complete serve
hot n cold: one of my fav katy songs going into this deepdive. i remember watching this video on mtv and loving the song. it’s aged so well https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> again nothing negative to say
WE FIGHT WE BREAK UP WE KISS WE MAKE UP
if you can afford me: ok it’s cute enough, again i love the rock influence but sonically its a bit tired this far into the album https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥱" title="Gähnendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Gähnendes Gesicht"> hoping for some sonic change... OMG KATYS VOCALS TOWARDS THE END A SERVE
lost: OMG INSTRUMENTALS ALREADY A SERVE??????? and katy sounds so cute https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">ok this is the sonic change i was needing. ok yeah i love this. it is a bit long but it’s worth it honestly
self-inflicted: the lyrics are so great, but the structure of it is a bit predictable... oMG CMON HARMONIES she sounds amazing tho. it gets better the longer u listen to it
i’m still breathing: @perrysjavi you’ll be glad to hear im obsessed with this song and it’s going in my playlist STRAIGHT AWAY https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> i’m getting so emotional and for what omfg??
NO NO NO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND IM OBSESSED IT SOUNDS LIKE A LILY ALLEN SONG IM GETTING CHILLS ALL OVER
fingerprints: i didn’t want i’m still breathing to end https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> this isn’t the best ending i feel like i’m still breathing should have been the ending song

album 2: teenage dream
i know most of the songs on this album because it’s iconic but there are some new ones omfg
teenage dream: an ICONIC bop. the chorus is the best part and it’s such a nostalgic song for me. collapse !
last friday night (T.G.I.F): again another iconic bop. i prefer it to teenage dream and its defo in my top 5
california girls: MY FAV SONG GOING INTO THIS OMGGGG THE NOSTALGIA. this played non stop on release and it’s aged so well
firework: I CHANGED MY MIND THIS IS MY FAV SONG I CRIED TO THIS SONG WHEN I REALISED I WAS A F@G OMFG
peacock: ok this is the first song i’ve never heard of before... wtf is this opening https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> defo not one of my favs even though the word play is funny
