Let's have something like the Beyhive and make a videography rate in the base.

I will not accept any result other than Birthslay at #1

So picky...such high standards.
I wonder what animal she will put in her mouth for the TIWHD video?

Finally someone threw the whole truth on the wheel.

And yet some insist saying that mediocre video is great and fun, but you know every fan base has its bad apples/taste. Please, God, guide this woman and make her throw a good music video this time, at least one good video this era cause at this rate we will have our MTN soon and therefore... This Is How We Do is not an important single.

Which leads to another point of novelty...sometimes the visual overshadows the actual song which one its own is forgettable in the long haul but when you hear it you remember it was big at the time.

It's a snapshot in time for what was popular at the moment.
Some songs are classics overall
Some songs are novelty and just for the moment
some songs are not classics but are cult classics and known to a specific generation

From this era: roar, dark horse and LL will be remembered signature hits
TIHWD will be her novelty song that only works for this time.
Birthday and Unconditionally will not be remembered outside of the core audience of pop listeners
I think It takes two or double rainbow could end up like roar and LL if done right

Much like in the TD era:
california gurls although cheesy is memorable
Teenage dream was novelty (only worked for that moment and not really memorable despite being my favorite single from her ever)
Firework is a classic
ET can fall under novelty or the same category california gurls not so memorable outside of the core audience of pop listeners
LFN the personification of novelty
the one that got away not a classic but a memorable song for katy
Part of me novelty
Wide awake not so memorable outside of the core audience of pop listeners

I agree with most of what you said, except when you called POM novelty.

Novelty = / = stupid and forgettable. Novelty = funny. I think POM was meant to be a serious break up/ empowerment anthem, despite not achieving such goals.

DRAG IT, SIS!!

The video was so terrible. The animal trainer thing was 100% percent forgettable, the Yosef Shulem character was lowkey racist, and the clown was terrible too. I only laugh at Goldie during that one second where she uses the guy's prosthetic leg as an air guitar. Princess Mandee is the only entertaining thing about the whole video, and even then she doesn't justify everything else being so terrible.

This gif kinda pisses me off bc almost none of her videos are supposed to be sexual?? The only "sexual" videos I can think of from her are "California Gurls", "Teenage Dream", and "I Kissed A Girl". It's really ridiculous.

I remember someone saying this month but take it with a grain of salt, it is too soon and they are gonna start testing the song on radios this month too.

Fair enough...
TIHWD is definitely a novelty track that fits the LFN mold
