Binding: Audio CDEAN: 5099950424924 Label: Capitol Manufacturer: Capitol Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Capitol Release Date: June 17, 2008 Studio: Capitol Editorial Review: Album Description: Ever since the November 2007 digital release of the hilarious, zeitgeist-capturing single "Ur So Gay," Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Katy Perry has been wowing critics and fans alike (including the Queen of Pop herself, Madonna) with her big voice, sassy attitude, and feisty, confessional songs. Katy's debut album, One of the Boys, is a sharp, witty pop-rock gem filled with candid tales of neurotic ex-boyfriends ("Hot N Cold," "Ur So Gay"), crazy road trips with friends ("Waking Up in Vegas"), and figuring out who you are along the way (first single "I Kissed A Girl," "Fingerprints"). While the album displays Katy's feisty, girl-power swagger, it also reveals her more vulnerable side on such regretful ballads as "Lost," "I'm Still Breathing," and "Thinking of You." Although just 23, the Santa Barbara, CA-born native has been writing songs and playing guitar for several years, and possesses the flair and confidence of a veteran storyteller. Catch her in all her glory this summer when she joins the Vans Warped Tour for its entire coast-to-coast run. Album Description: One of the Boys is the second album from Capitol Music Group recording artist, Katy Perry. The album is Perry's first album since her Red Hill Records Christian rock debut, entitled Katy Hudson, which was recorded in 2001.The album features the singles, "UR So Gay" and "I Kissed a Girl".

 Rating:  - Hot item done perfectly right!I am basing my rating on the 30-second listening previews, only. I am active in the music biz and I know hits when I hear them. Compared to the enormous boatload of JUNK that exists in this music world of today, I love the catchy Pop/Jazz/Hip-hop style of Katy Perry's music AND the way she sings it. How refreshing! I do not view this as stereotypical Pop music. She has a certain unique style based on her voice and annunciation. This was also recorded and produced very well. Like the Van Halen boys ...

Rating: - I love Katy PerrySo I love Katy Perry's new album....every song is deep and meaningful. She is an excellent writer and her amazing singing skills come out in every song. I love the variations in her voice and style. Every song shows another side of her. Rating:  - hypeGod... Kate Perry has a terrible terrible voice. And she's singing about lesbian/gay theme songs. I Kissed a Girl and I liked it and You're so gay. She not even gay so what gives her the right to sing about lesbian this and gay that and having lesbian/gay friends doesn't give you the right to claim such experience. She writes about this shocking titled songs because the controversial topics she's singing about is what will sell the album. Rating: - I dunno....It's a pop-hit, that's for sure. But... "Ur So Gay"? Uhm, NO. Substitute the word "black" or "jewish" and describe your urban or frugal ex-boyfriend and you would be blacklisted in the musical world. I'm tired of "gay" being thrown around as a derogatory phrase. Grow up, already. It's not funny. "I Kissed a Girl". Nice catchy song. But again, feeding into numerous stereotypes that aren't really cool, and by the way, why don't good girls kiss other girls? Sad attempt ... Read More |
