      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!

      Sounds awesome. A little bit too much like Pink, but a good remake.

    25. Edgar says – reply to this


      25

      Very fucking original. Nobody can come out with their own shit no more. The outfield's song is ten times better than this crap.

    26. Doug says – reply to this


      26

      Umm, I was first. And I am also thirteenth.

    27. Bubba Flatliner says – reply to this


      27

      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?

    30. ShinsFan says – reply to this


      30

      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.

      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 :)

    39. DetWingsGirl says – reply to this


      39

      This girl has NO voice… and why remake a tune if you're going to do it exactly like the original?

    40. theVoiceOfReason says – reply to this


      40

      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

    41. meh says – reply to this


      41

      The original song is much better. Her voice sounds horrible in comparison. I don't like this version at all :(

    42. Kel says – reply to this


      42

      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. ;/

    43. Robal says – reply to this

      she is amazing!!!!!!

      LOVE IT! will be buying it! Thanks Perez!

    50. Luvs it! says – reply to this


      50

      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.

    51. Christina says – reply to this

      No. No. No.

      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?

    55. Liz says – reply to this

    56. NO says – reply to this

      I love that song but this is a bad remake
      I don't like it :( :( :(

    57. robin says – reply to this

      Well it's no "smell yo dick"….but its not bad….

      LOLOLOL!! Riskay is a disgusting skank!

    58. Maureen says – reply to this


      58

      OMG…I just recently became re-obsessed with the original and play it constantly. This the best drunk dancing song :)

    59. ChiTownEric says – reply to this


      59

      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.

      60

      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.

    62. Rachel says – reply to this


      62

      I like it a lot. Her voice isn't as bad as some of you say.

    63. Missprissypants says – reply to this


      63

      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.

    65. Gwen says – reply to this


      65

      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.

    66. shedrock says – reply to this


      66

      You've gotta be kidding me. Her version sounds like pure SHIT!. How dare you insult The Outfield like that?

    67. Samantha says – reply to this


      67

      OMG! I love this!

    68. jill says – reply to this


      68

      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.

    73. zostars says – reply to this

      a step up from can I smell yo dick , kylie minogue, but worse than lisa damato (at least she is original). Post more Lisa!

      74

      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.

      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.

    77. andyzipf says – reply to this


      77

      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.

    78. Emma says – reply to this


      78

      She looks so much like Zooey Deschanel!

    79. don't like it says – reply to this

      not bad, great voice when actually singing so stick to that….

    81. Better than expected says – reply to this


      81

      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.

      She should leave that song alone. It made me ill.

      this is HORRIFIC. way to ruin a great song…

    89. sarge says – reply to this


      89

      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.

    90. Leslie says – reply to this


      90

      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!

      oh. my. god.. i f***ing love it!!!!!!!

    95. BOO! HISS! says – reply to this


      95

      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!!!

    96. KnowGood says – reply to this


      96

      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.

      you're an ass. this is a great remake. build upon good stuff and good things come from it.

    99. jen says – reply to this


      99

      [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.

    100. jen says – reply to this


      100

      correction. at least she didn't just rewrite the lyrics and claim the beat as her own.
