Katy Perry Does sexy... tastefully?

I certainly think so.  I wasn't quite sure what to expect as a follow up to "California Girls" but "Teenage Dream"certainly solidifies why Katy Perry is so successful as a Pop Artist.  The single is not only catchy but is actually well crafted and has a theme that resonates with a lot of people (and no I don't mean that Katy Perry is hot).  As far as the video, I was pleasantly surprised at how well done the sexy types of scenes were done.  They weren't as in your face as her previous video and that's what made it so great.  This video was just...fun.  If you haven't seen it yet check it out!



Also I came across this while looking for the "Teenage Dream" song and thought it was really good.  Let me know what you think!

Just when I had written Katy Perry off...

So I love Pop music as much as the next person but despite the fact that I get lost in catchy lines and super sugary sweet pop beats I cannot deny that a lot of pop artists have a short shelf life and are not too versatile. I appreciate pop music for what it is... music that I sing at the top my my lungs when no one else is listening. And just as I had written Ms. Katy Perry off as SO last summer with her fantastically upbeat hit "I Kissed a Girl". Recently she did an unplugged set for MTV that changed my opinion completely. Her voice is soulful and captivating and stripping down her heavily produced songs to jazz beats or acoustic guitar truly showcases her talent. Hopefully you guys will agree that Katy Perry is the real deal.
