My review! ( if i have grammar mistakes ignore it because English is not my first language )
ROAR – at first i didn’t like it . It was far from what i was expecting especially when she announced that Prism will be more grown up. Typical teen pop , but she was playing safe . Good choice for lead single , but this song is not in my top 5. 7/10
Legendary Lovers – i like Indian feeling . it’s like i can hear horses running on a mountain . At first it was one of the best single choice , but the more i listen to the song i realize that the verses are not that strong and that i only like chorus . 7/10
Birthday - One of the best tracks on the album. i definitely agree that this is like Mariah-ish but it’s still Katy’s song . Definitely a single 9/10
Walking On Air – i also voted for this song because it is first ever Katy club song. She need this as a single . 10/10
Unconditionally – second strongest ballad on the album. I like mysterious sound on the verses like water is dropping. What i don’t like is repetitively chorus but Katy needs this type of songs to show that she can sing and that she is not just bubblegum singer 8.5/10
Dark Horse feat. Juicy J – i like atmosphere in the song and the chorus , but that’s it . It’s something new from her so i give her a credit for that . 7/10
This Is How We Do – Not my cup of tea . I don’t like weird sound ( like i can hear super Mario collecting coins in the chorus ) but i can see why ppl are like it . It’s teen , bubblegum but far away from LFN ( using saxophone was epic ) but with every listening it’s getting better. 6/10
International Smile –I really don’t know what to say about this song. Sometimes i like it but sometimes i don’t . It is more for someone who is trying to became a pop singer than for someone who is already a pop diva. I would not like if this song becomes a single but it is good enough just to be an album track 6.5/10
Ghost – Giving me that I’m still breathing tease. One of my favorites. This is Prism Katy and i would love if this become a single . 10/10
Love Me – it is a nice album song. Lyrically it is not the strongest song but it’s cute. I don’t know why but it reminds me on Leona Lewis Lovebird 7/10
This Moment – I’m obsessed with this track . I just like everything from the 80s vibe to lyrics . One of the best album moments is this song. It would be good choice for single because general public likes that retro sound ( especially ppl who are in their thirties/ forties ) . 10/10
Double Rainbow - i will just copy i AM free “Here comes my favorite vocal performance on the album. She sounds so fantastic. It might sound stupid but I always feel some kind of relaxed wisdom in here voice whenever I listen to the track. I’m very satisfied with the production. The chorus is otherworldly. I think this hit me so hard because I really pushed this back to background when we got hints about the album. I just didn’t expecting anything outstanding. I’m so glad I was wrong. 10/10 “
By The Grace of God – when i heard it on itunes festival i was thrilled . It was so vulnerable , honest , grown , but when i listen official version i was a little bit disappointed . The chorus sounds just like Wide Awake and i just can’t relate to the song as much as just piano version . 8/10
Spiritual – It’s like Dido song . Relaxing . I really love deluxe songs and i think that they deserve to be on standard album 8.5/10
It Takes Two – This is a bomb . It is her chance to snatch that grammy wigs . Beyonce/Mariah/ Alicia big ballad type . It’s defiantly not Katy we used to hear and a lot of ppl ( like my sister and friends ) just can’t believe that she sings this type of song. Someone said that this song would sound better if it was sang by someone who has a bigger voice ( like the ones i mentioned ) but i disagree. 11/10
Choose Your Battles – My top 5 song on the album. I like that army sound and yes it reminds us on Who i’m a living for but that was(is ) a good song isn’t it ? 10/10
I really like the album but i prefer second part ( from 9-16 ) .
A friend of mine listened to PRISM and he's in love with Double Rainbow. He said that this song have similarities with Somewhere Only We Know, by Keane.
'This Moment' has really grown on me. It went from basic filler to a standout for me. I love that line 'But you know who I- who I think will win? Are the ones that let love in'

When I heard the album for the first time, I thought most of the songs sounded like something Keane could sing Queen of alternative pop
So sneaky.
