I was never really a huge Katy Perry fan. I mean I liked, "I Kissed a Girl" and "Hot 'N Cold" but with her new album, I've really started to like her. Though I don't think "California Gurls" or "Teenage Dream" are exactly timeless classics, they are catchy and easily listenable. Both of these latter two singles have hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and I was hoping that Perry would pick another song I heard titled "Peacock" as her third single. Apparently she has already shot a video for a single titled "Firework" but I'm still listening to "Peacock." Maybe it'll be the fourth single...
I love this song for its cheerleader-esque beat, reminiscent of that 80's song "Mickey"or Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback Girl" as well as its clever lyrics. The song can get repetitive if listened to on repeat and my boyfriend has deemed it one of his most disliked songs (behind anything by Nicki Minaj). But a few times a week, I can definitely walk to class listening to this gem. And I obviously love the line of the breakdown where Katy claims that her partner's penis is so incredible that it caused her to shed a tear.
"I wanna see your peacock-cock-cock."
"Oh my god, no exaggeration...
Boy all this time was worth the waiting...
I just shed a tear... I am so unprepared...
You've got the finest architecture...
End of a rainbow-looking treasure...
Such a sight to see... and its all for me..."
