Katy rocks!

She looks creepy
Sweet!
She looks creepy
Get IN ME!!!!!!
First?!
I love the original song and remakes almost always suck, so I was expecting to hate this…
but it's actually pretty good! I'll might even buy it!
#1
Who is this???
Who really gives a shit.
BRILLIANT!
the original version was my prom song two years ago.
I was around for the original and I actually like this version MUCH better!
Nice paid sponsorship sell out dickweed… this sux
LOVE IT
haha i love it
haha i love it
haha i love it
haha i love it
Sounds awesome. A little bit too much like Pink, but a good remake.
Very fucking original. Nobody can come out with their own shit no more. The outfield's song is ten times better than this crap.
Umm, I was first. And I am also thirteenth.
funny, didnt this chick used to sing church music under the name Katy Hudson? Seems odd, even though she's obviously not doing the church thing for Perez to be giving pub to a pastor's kid……..geez perez….come on…
Is it me or is there some animation in her hat and left earring? watch closely for a few seconds…
When are you going to open your own record label
and start making money off of all these singers and
bands that you are making stars?
Ugh! What a crappy, synthetic, overblown song. The Shins, before they signed to Subpop, did a cover of this that is miles better and truly rocked.
SORRY BUT SHE SUCKS.
SOO AWESOME…good remake
WOW! SO MUCH BETTER THAN I EXPECTED! WILL FO' SURE GO OUT AND BUY IT!
So not first, bitch.
mmkay?
She doesn't look creepy, ' Magz ', she looks pretty
Cutee song, x
Looks like a giant M&M.
This remake sux the original is much better
this remake sucks!!!! I had to stop it 53 seconds into it. No cover for that song is ever gonna be better than the original.
U R So Gay
This girl has NO voice… and why remake a tune if you're going to do it exactly like the original?
Damn, 'rez. This is the sound of Zac Efron and VH's smile. Polished, perfectely posed, and utterly devoid of life.
I deem this to be the exact opposite of artistic expression.
dB, the Voice of Reason
The original song is much better. Her voice sounds horrible in comparison. I don't like this version at all
I don't really like it, she distorted it too much from the original tune to be recognizeable and at the same time she created a new tune that is nausea-inducing, nothing really flows together. Sorry. ;/
she is amazing!!!!!!
God, this takes me back to my junior high school dances!!
Waiting for that "crush" to ask you to dance.
she changed almost all the words wtf.. this song sucks.. the REAL SONG IS AMAZING.. screw ruining originals.. EFF THAT
Totally love it!
amaaaaaaaaaazing! i need mooooooooooore!
I wonder how much money Perez gets to upload this junk?
LOVE IT! will be buying it! Thanks Perez!
A "girl's" version of a guy's song! Very 80's. I do luv the original, but like this one, too! Liked it til it started sounding like a "dance track", she should re-do the "dance" & make it rock the whole way thru! But yea, I'd buy it.
No. No. No.
OH MY GOD….BITCH RUINED MY SONG!!!!!!!!!
man perez, you have the best taste in music ever.. everything you post on here is someone I already love, or someone I dig right off the bat. you rock for this! love her! "Ur So Gay" is the best!
OMG she murdered this song. Hello? Anyone have ears?
I like it! ALMOST better than the original….
I love that song but this is a bad remake
I don't like it
Well it's no "smell yo dick"….but its not bad….
LOLOLOL!! Riskay is a disgusting skank!
OMG…I just recently became re-obsessed with the original and play it constantly. This the best drunk dancing song
For all those kids that mock 80's music, they sure do cover alot of it. No Doubt started it with "It's My Life" by Talk Talk. If you are going to do a cover, make it original, not a karaoke version with a few standard beat/synth tracks from a music software program. These new and wannabes singers/bands that insist on doing covers or overusing samples of 80's tunes shouldn't follow the Chinese method of creating cheap, knock off versions. Create your own stuff.
I'm sorry dude. But I saw this chick play with some of my favorite musicians at "Room 5" down on La Brea one Monday night. Maybe she was "off" that night, but she totally sucked. Or maybe I was just comparing her to the likes of the others there.
She's cute.
I like it a lot. Her voice isn't as bad as some of you say.
She sure did a good. Glad she didn't butcher it!!!
This trollop sucks. Can't even begin to touch the original. What a clown.
Nice and generic rawker chick, just the way the fuckwads who'll buy this crap to crank like it. I wish these kids with no talent would quit messing with good (if cheesy!) songs that came out before they were even born.
You've gotta be kidding me. Her version sounds like pure SHIT!. How dare you insult The Outfield like that?
OMG! I love this!
as horrible, as all the songs you think are good. and that stupid fucking kylie minogre (intentinally misspelled) song ~ the one that sound like a bad 80's song? SAME SHIT DIFFERENT DAY. honestly perez, get an ear. you might as well bring tina the retard back. oh god, what a fucking retard. she didn't get it. i know alot of people are going to say , "awww, but she had heart, she gave it her all". no my peeps. she's a retard. worse than william hung. no one thought he was a retard, cuz his english was bad, but he was a retard. CORKY'S OF THE WORLD…STAY OFF U-TUBE, unless you want to be slayed on-line… your fault. not mine, retards. kinda like the people who say "FIRST!", retards as well.
love her songs
the best is thinking of you
I know her and she's awesome! Thanks for the shout out, Perez!
This is pretty terrible.
This chick rocks. That's one catchy cover!
a step up from can I smell yo dick , kylie minogue, but worse than lisa damato (at least she is original). Post more Lisa!
Perez, you are a sell out. How much did they pay you? You're a chump.
Emma Burgess covered this song last year and did 10 times the job this chick did.
SHE RUINED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS SUXX PEREZ! i hate covers, i hate unknows who do covers to get famous. this isn't even a GOOD cover. no comparison to the original.
I like this cover. It will be interesting to see how this blog will effect Ms. Perry's digital sales and overall online buzz. Smart move by whoever thought of this at Capitol.
She looks so much like Zooey Deschanel!
:( this is a horrible cover
the original song is so much better
not bad, great voice when actually singing so stick to that….
As most have said… big fan of the original. Impressed with her voice and how well it matched the song and portrayed its emotion. HOWEVER this was WAY too overproduced. Had it been left more raw, it would have been amazing. As it is, I was disappointed. Maybe I'm so disappointed because with her voice, it could have been an amazing remake.
this is FABULOUS.
SUCKS SUCK SUCKS SUCKS!!
SHE CAN'T SING!!!!
is it just me or does she look just like reese witherspoon???
This remake sucks, love the original.
katie is the shit. AND a kick ass person.
She should leave that song alone. It made me ill.
this is HORRIFIC. way to ruin a great song…
This is crap… again. Although I would love to hear The Shins version. Why are so many artists with no talent highlighted on this site - oh wait probably for the same reason all the C-list, no talent actors are on this site.
The modern aspect is cool and all but the 30 something girls like me just loved that high pitched male voice. Besides, the "tonight" repitition is a little crazy.
Ohs noes! Another classic, RUINED!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW I loved the song !!! It totally rocks !! when is her album coming out… tired of hearing d same thing every day !!! Good job Perez baby !!
Is it just me - or does she look ridiculously like Zooey Deschanel in this pic?!
oh. my. god.. i f***ing love it!!!!!!!
BOOOOOOOOOO! The original was superior. If you're going to showcase new talent they should be doing NEW things! Perhaps if she was doing something of her own I would like it better. She butchered this song!!!
TURN OFF YOUR RADIO!
If you keep buying into this corporate bullshit they'll keep releasing it. Cover tunes are so played out, and only prove that they don't/and can't write them like they used to.
F***ing braziliant!!!!!!! thank you, perez!!!
Re: KnowGood –
you're an ass. this is a great remake. build upon good stuff and good things come from it.
[re=937101]Re: BOO! HISS![/re don't be an ass. open your mind. at least she wrote original lyrics and didn't rip off a beat and call it her own like every other hip hop artist on mtv.
correction. at least she didn't just rewrite the lyrics and claim the beat as her own.
