International Smile is awful starting by the title
And then the chorus
Quote:
That girl's a trip, a one way ticket
Takes you miles high, so high
'Cause she's got that one international smile
Catch her if you can
Yeah, she's so in demand
Takes you miles high, so high
'Cause she's got that one international smile
International Smile is a prime example of lazy songwriting. I guess she already had her smash hit TIHWD written by then so she didn't feel the need to pull her weigh this time.
'Cause I used to be a shell
Yeah, I let him rule my world
But I woke up and grew strong
And I can still go on!
And no one can take my pearl.
You don't have to be a shell
You're the one that rules your world
You are strong and you'll learn
That you can still go on
And you'll always be a...
A pearl.

As well as the rest of the lyrics which sound like they're trying to appeal to people of legal drinking age but for some reason come across like a 14 year old trying to sound mature wrote them.
Based on that song alone I'd guess Katy was in her 40s, at the youngest. "Kids like being up all night and talking about horoscopes, don't they?"
I am NOT here for BRIT awards type of vocals or anything even close to that
