SimonBaetens 6,891 Posted August 13, 2024 Share Posted August 13, 2024 No, Prism is also good and so is One of the Boys. Witness and Smile have some good moments as well. when you're lonely, I'll be lonely too / https://www.last.fm/user/SimonBaetens Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Katy as an act, especially live. She puts on a darn good show and she has a great discography in terms of fun, varied bops. But imo she never put an album together in a compelling way. It always sounds like a compromise between 5 producers who all mixed their tracks separately and just vomited them all out onto a random tracklist. Not my jam. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my jam. oh, I completely agree with you. to me, her albums always felt like those greatest hits/best of compilation records. there's no clear vision or cohesive theme to an album, even with Teenage Dream imo. I think you're as good (as an artist) as your deep cuts are, so when it comes to Katy, most of her non-singles are straight up unlistenable or just plain boring! that being said, I think Witness is her strongest attempt at crafting a decent body of work so far. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS77 1,724 Posted August 13, 2024 Share Posted August 13, 2024 (edited) Katy as a songwriter with her guitar is top tier perfection (“Thinking of You” / “Lost” / “I’m Still Breathing”), and it’s a sound/songwriting style I wish she would revisit one day. Instead of constantly chasing for a pop banger. Edited August 13, 2024 by SS77 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smother Em Eh 7,003 Posted August 13, 2024 Share Posted August 13, 2024 No, half of Prism is solid if it was cut in half it would be perfect. Also OOTB was a wonderful debut and Witness has some great tracks like the title track, Chained To The Rhythm and Roulette. Get Applause & G.U.Y to 1B views!

Bronco 6,852 Posted August 13, 2024 Share Posted August 13, 2024 OotB is great, Teenage Dream is her absolute best, Prism has a mix of smashes and passes. And then its a pretty steep downward curve 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ActualPatient 1,268 Posted August 13, 2024 Share Posted August 13, 2024 There's some good content on her first three albums. After those three, I only really liked Chained to the Rhythm. Waking Up In Vegas >>>> Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poker 3,638 Posted August 13, 2024 Share Posted August 13, 2024 I don’t think TD is a good album. It has got good singles tho but album as a whole? Mmm Kindness rules all. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
