so the point is: i don't hate katy perry's songs, i just rarely can stand her voice or the basic production. i feel like she has songwritting potential and could evolve into a really good artist even if her live vocals usually fail or whatever.

what songs do you think would be greater sang by other artists?

i feel like my "favorite" katy perry song, the one that got away (full of heterosexual romantic film cliches like the rest) would improve A LOT if it was sung by marina diamandis, wby'all

Thinking Of You is fave katy song and i think she gives a pretty solid performance there...Pink or Sia would do it good, with strong and raw vocals :dry:

I once heard the acoustic version of The One That Got Away in a restaurant and I actually loved it, while the original did nothing for me :laughga:

I must say that the songwriting is often my least favorite part of her singles (especially songs like California Girls, Last Friday Night, Teenage Dream), so I wouldn't really like them even if they were sung by other singers :laughga:.

I'll have to admit though, I really like some songs like E.T., Firework, Roar and Rise. And even though I think they don't really need to be sung by someone else, I'd probably pick Firework out of those for to be sung by someone with a more powerful voice, just so that it would sound better live :sweat: (not trying to be mean, but anyone would have to admit that some of those live performances by Katy are off).

"I Kissed a Girl" would have been so much better by Pink--she has the necessary grit, edge and vocal range to where she could make the song sound somewhat interesting.

"ET" is one of the very few Katy Perry songs I really like, and I think Gaga would've done it justice à la "Venus." (Sans cringe-worthy "alien sex" feature by Kanye).

It could just be me, but I think Troye Sivan can make an execellent 'The One That Got Away'. And Sara Bareilles could do an excellent Part Of Me.

Katy's songs are hers. Let her reap the fruits of her and her team's labor. I can't imagine other artists coming up with Katy's discography.

I think 'Wide Awake' would have been so much better with a better voice singing it. It had the potential to be more of a hit song but there was something lacking.
