Katy Perry is the all-new singing and sort-of-dancing-but-probably-too-cool-for-all-that, rebellious, girl-kissing, Avril Lavigne v2.0 bad-girl of high-production American pop. She's not exactly out to be ignored. In fact she's out to become both an idol for disenfranchised Britney fans and a poster-girl for emo-boys, not to mention tabloid-fodder and gossip-page regular. She is also, it should be noted, the daughter of two pastors and made her recorded debut with a Christian pop album aged 17 (she's now 23). And while a leopard changing its spots, or at least its wardrobe, might all be part of growing from a teenager to a feisty young woman, it is easy to be cynical about this package, headed up by the ready-to-download controversy of her "I Kissed a Girl" single. That tune at least has the bold beats and choreographed raw heat to match its sassy premise; it is a little disappointing that for someone resting on rebellion as her central cause that the music on One of the Boys is so conformist. "Mannequin" is Kelly Clarkson American-Idol style modern power-rock, the lyrically questionable "Ur So Gay" takes Lily Allen and adds a dash of Christina, "Hot 'n' Cold" is a Pink-esque floor-filler, "Thinking of You" a Britney ballad of some scale and the title track like an Avril Lavigne reworking of a brazen Cyndi Lauper classic. But while she brings little originality to the table, there are certainly no half measures covering the bases on this efficient debut. --James Berry The platinum selling debut album of American phenomenon Katy Perry. Includes her smash hit #1 single 'I Kissed a Girl' and 'Hot n cold'. Review: Love this album - I am a big fan of katy Perry I love most of her songs cuz well her songs can tell a story and I always get a picture in my head when I listen to her music. This album was soo fab x It could not have been better ;) here are my thoughts on the songs xx One of the boys: 5/5 a fab song to start the album :) I kissed a girl: 5/5 love this song ;) Waking up in last vagus: 4/5 love the song but not as much as I kissed agirl Thinking of you: 3/5 not 2 keen on this one too slow -.- Mannequin: 5/5 tells a story love it! :D Ur so gay: 5/5 this is my fav one the beginning is like a cow boy scene :D Hot n cold: 5/5 it's a really good one but it has a swear word and I'm not allowed to play it that much :( which is disappointing as its really catchy If u can afford me: 5/5 but again swearing -,- Lost: 3/5 don't like this one it's boring Self inflected: 3/5 it's ok but swearing AGAIN! I'm still breathing: 1/5 this one is the worst one yet plus half of it is kinda rap. It's sad and it made me cry so yeah it's the worst one in the album So yeah the album is great and I recommend it 2 Katy Perry fans ;) But just to warn u there is swearing in this album ( hot n cold, if u can afford me, self infected) I don't know why they didn't put a warning of this album. But anyway great album and please please please please check out moviestarplanet my username is Katy Perry lover 123!

Poptastic!
As a casual Katy fan, I bought this as a bargain for the singles, but loved it for the rest. I was enjoying it so much on the first listen I forgot it hadn't even reached Hot n Cold yet. Favourites include One of the Boys, about a teenage girl blossoming, and Ur so Gay (opening line - "I hope you hang yourself with your H & M scarf" ) and Mannequin. This is a great example of what a Pop album can and should be.

10/10
This is a great CD. My children love it, I love it and their nan loves it ;) I find leaving a review for a CD a bit strange because we all have different taste in music and being that I bought it means I (or who I buy to for) likes the artist/s and also when buying a CD such as this - the tracks are listed.. you buy the CD because you like the artist... you like the tracks listed... I don't know... can't really understand poor reviews for CDs on Amazon... but anyway.... I/We loved this CD... Arrived well packaged as usual and was as usual a fantastic price.. Thank you

Not for me
On purchasing Katy Perry's other albums i purchased this one but to my surprise was not as good. Taking into account it was her first one the only track i like is " I kissed a girl " the others well not so good. I don't want to be hard on this great talented artist but this album wasn't for me sorry.
