It's the production in general. It's just so stale at this point. It'll be a hit, but I don't think it'll be a huge smash a la California Gurls.
PS. does anyone else hear a little bit of We Are Young in there?
Sure, but it's not even so much We Are Young. It's just the 80s anthem they were building, complete with tacky cover, biker jacket, and the use of "eye of the tiger", just in case they didn't make it obvious enough.

I agree. I bet they'll praise the 80s influences, the anthemic chorus, etc. I could see it get dragged in relation to other recent attempts to channel the 80s, but that's about it.
I love that Robin is still very strong in nearly every component right now, despite people saying that he would die down closer to Katy's and Gaga's releases. This month will be interesting.
There is a reason why a cocaine addict named Lady Gaga has been releasing ****ographic videos, faking hip injuries to cover up for bad ticket sales, and sitting still while her fans tweet cruel messages to Katy Perry. Gaga’s album has, so far, generated negative buzz. ARTPOP was supposed to be the big album of the season. Needless to say, “Prism” will jump all over it. It’s safe to say that the album will see Perry become a Grammy goddess as well.

Now I see why it sounds so generic
