Katy Perry, Fireworks.

I never heard this song because I thought it had to be crap because of Perry doing kiddy music, but I check out her video, thanks to Glee and it is really good. Good music, good lyrics.

I don't hope she will improve but she did do one good song..lol

All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

I don't mean to pile on, but this song does suck. Badly! Scraty Perry's caterwauling is a true horror to behold.

It's called "Firework". I liked it, but it got played out.

It's hilarious how, even autotuned, she sounds disastrous on the chorus. She picked a song that she simply does NOT have the ability for. All her live performances of this are a complete mess.

No kidding... it's like, who's strangling the fucking cat? eek

There's nothing talented about Katy Perry. Really. ):

The song is good and I'm not afraid to admit it. If Prince did this song you guys would be licking the radio.

Her vocals in that song is atrocious.

Even my Mom thought that her voice sounds so forced and strangled in the chorus whenever that song comes up on the radio.

I like Katy though.

Totally agree. Katy is not a good vocalist. Her performance of "Fireworks" at the American Music Awards last year was just awful. The song would have been much better suited for someone who had the voice to actually pull it off.

Fa real. sad

I dislike the whole thing, mainly because it's not the kind of stuff I dig. I honestly believe Katy Perry is incredibly UNtalented. And while I think "why am I not making millions every year to screech like a beast in heat?", she must got something I don't. neutral

I just don't understand why they didn't do the song in a different key or something. It sounds painful for her to sing the chorus live. She was holding her throat and everything the last time I saw her do it. I think "Teenage Dream" is her best song this time out.....at least so far.
