Interesting that for such an immature bubblegum record, TD sure did get alot of Adult Contemporary airplay. I think what made Katy stand out is that she does the traditional kind of pop instead of electropop and dance records with a drop ala Ke$ha and everybody else in 2010/2011.

Definitely, it's also why she will continue to get recurrent airplay through the years and why her songs are still selling much better than other acts stuck in the electro-pop/electro-house trend of two years ago. Her songs have a more timeless sound to them because, while they do use a lot of synths and electronic production, it's used in a traditional pop structure and sounds more organic. Also means her songs are easier to cover.
(not that the original isn't their best song)
What's happened to the latin guitar at the start?
