Notwithstanding the string of hit singles, her off-key singing usually has me searching for ear plugs, and this song is no exception.

shrug I like the message of the song. Sometimes the message is more important than the delivery but that's just my own personal opinion. I like her bunches but really don't like her live performances. She's a good POP artist...as a vocalist, not so much.

I like this song a lot. I was waiting for the video when all they had was a teaser preview for it.

i really like her. cool video, great message. though i'm liking it, the song isn't one that catches me immediately. but this is the 1st i've heard it and "seen" it, so together it makes me like it even more. if that makes sense to you. lol. good message, uplifting, and fun. more power to her!

thumbs up!

In a recent interview, she said this was her favorite song from the album...called it her opus and everything.

lol She's so adorable.

Autotune? hmm I'm not hearing any autotune on this song.

lol Yeah, the plastic bag line does throw you off a bit, but compared to some of the other mindless drivel that's being put out by many artists (old and new), this is far from what I would call garbage. At the top of my list of popular garbage songs would be Trey Songz' "The neighbors know my name." I hated that song from the moment I heard it.

Yeah, I wasn't feeling her x-factor performance, but like I said above, I'm not too fond of her live performances because she's not a very strong vocalist but she's not trying to be one either so shrug . I do respect that she doesn't resort to lip-syncing her songs and takes the time out to actually put pen to paper and write her own material and sees the importance in learning how to play an instrument...she plays cello, piano, guitar, and the baritone. If you don't like this lady, than you don't like her; that's your choice; but she's far from being 'pure garbage' in a music industry that has come to rely largely on how naked an artist can get. She usually lets her music do the majority of the talking; not her image; unlike many of her counterparts and I respect her for that. All just my twocents

Those are her 'fireworks'. Personally, I still only like the bubble dress out of all of her outrageous costumes...awww, bubble dress mushy . Honestly, if Lady Gaga had Katy Perry's lyrics and more subtle image, I would totally be a Gaga fan. Nothing about Gaga or her music is amazing to me at all, but her voice is phenomenal and she's an amazing live performer...two departments that Katy falls short in. JMHO.

I can't get into Katy Perry, and lawd knows I tried...To me, it seems like the songs she sings aren't age appropriate for her...I mean, they could work, but she's a grown woman, and I would expect for her songs to sound a little more "mature"...if that makes sense...
