"Walking On Air" has the chintziest Eurosynths I've ever heard, one of Katy's worst vocal performances ever, and massively cringeworthy lyrics ("you're reading me like erotica / boy you make me feel exotic, yeah"  ). "Legendary Lovers" is a snoozefest and is essentially just "Unconditionally" but with slight bhangra influences. The chorus is totally nothing. Apparently Katy's idea of being super serious and super mature actually means being super boring.
"This Is How We Do" isn't a particularly good song, either, but at least it doesn't take itself too seriously like "Legendary Lovers." |
Black ray-bans, you know she's with the band
Passport stamps, she's cosmopolitan
Yeah, she runs the place like Penny Lane
Yeah, you're lucky if you're on her plane
That girl’s a trip
A one way ticket
Takes you miles high, so high
'Cause she’s got that one international smile
Jesus
Don't come to WoA and LL lyrics when you stan for songs that talk about **** and have the worst production like EVER from a pop girl.

They're quite cringeworthy, yes, but the song is also 100% less pretentious: it's supposed to be stupid. Her inane lyrics don't fall so flat on their face when they're not trying so hard to be serious or clever.

If International Smile is ever released as a single, I will probably jump ship

This is so catchy.  I just can't stand when she says happy birthday later on in the song though

EVEN BETTER IDEA!!
Make International Smile the rest of the singles from Prism! 
EDIT: I caught that edit!

I wonder what Katy's gonna do for the MV.  She might loose a few of her younger fans with this one.
