Take it whatever way you will, but here's what I think of PRISM after a thorough listen through. Not a stan for Katy Perry. Just a fan of Pop music.
PRISM:
1. "
Roar" - Your basic pop song. Great meaning behind the song. Very uplifting. Solid lead single, but nothing extraordinary.
7/10
2. "
Legendary Lovers" - Fun song. Definitely like the breakdown in the song. Reminds me of something Kylie Minogue would do.
8/10
3. "
Birthday" - Sounds like a disco song. Average fun song. Kinda like a continuation of "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)".
6/10
4. "
Walking On Air" - My funeral. Slayed me over the head and left me walking funny.
10/10
5. "
Unconditionally" - Tries to reach the stellar peak of "Wide Awake" but falls short.
7/10
6. "
Dark Horse" (featuring Juicy J) - Feels outta place. A mix between a Gwen Stefani song & a Fergie song but not as good. A skip for me.
3/10
7. "
This Is How We Do" - A fun bop. Her "speed singing" is alright. Another basic pop song.
6/10
8. "
International Smile" - Reminds me of something I could see on 'One of the Boys'. Didn't understand what I was singing but I found myself bopping.
9/10
9. "
Ghost" - Sounds like a Fefe Dobson song. Definitely a filler in the album.
4/10
10. "
Love Me" - Fun beat. We all can relate to the song. The building to the chorus is beautiful.
8/10
11. "
This Moment" - Overproduced and it didn't seem like Katy was really into it.
5/10
12. "
Double Rainbow" - The disembowelment of me. This song causes strokes. Aneurysm. Even death. Do not drive while bopping. You will crash. It's addicting like a drug.
10/10
13. "
By the Grace of God" - This reminds me of a Sarah McLachlan song but not as polished. A couple flashes of an Evanescence ballad here too.
5/10
DELUXE EDITION:
14. "
Spiritual" - Sounds like a fun 90's song. Like the song from The Craft "How Soon Is Now" by the Smiths. This is a good thing.
8/10
15. "
It Takes Two" - Why is this ended up a bonus track baffles me. It's well crafted and she sings it extremely on poise!
9/10
16. "
Choose Your Battle" - The production is what carries this song but the lyrics don't lead it past the finish line.
6/10
Total Average:
6.9375... rounding UP to a
7/10. Some songs could've been cut. But she went places on here that haven't been touched for awhile and she gets A LOT of credit for that!
If my target is carrying it, should I buy it? I heard it won't count for first week sales.
