Katy Perry - Smile (5th Studio Album)

[COB]

Come on guys, it's never! really! over!

*Has not listened to this album and never will*

 

[Diddy]

TBH for me none of her albums have especially clicked with me, they’re just sort of the sum of their parts and I don’t lose anything by just picking the bits out that I like. (See also Ariana, Taylor ...)

 

[OutSynk]

I will listen to this the next time I MOP the floor.

 

[Ecce Homo]

IS IT AS GOOD AS ET PLS

 

[Ecce Homo]

Really shocked that people seem to have an issue with clowns. My friend Liz is scared of being raped by them but I’m not. I fact I instantly discard my panties whenever I see one and get my tits out

 

[OutSynk]

Come on guys, it's never! really! over!

It’s over.

 

[Jark]

Well. All of us except Jark knew this is how it was going to end. I haven’t listened to the album yet.

yeah, because I listen to music for the commercial power it has. *erases 85% of my library* @OutSynk as on the money and capable of a nuanced discussion as ever!

 

[Jark]

I will post a longer musing on the album and on the comments made on the previous page later this weekend...

 

[joanne]

Smile is predicted to debut with 50k at #4 in the US. that's around 40k lower than Aguilera's Liberation.

folklore will remain at #1 for a 6th consecutive week with over 100k.

just because it's over, it really means it's really over.

 

[Diddy]

How awful to have a #4 album

have some fun @joanne , it’s the weekend

In what universe did Aguilera open with 90k recently?

 

[Jark]

Liberation opened with 68k tota units why is @joanne lying

 

[OutSynk]

Commercial power? I don’t give two shits about it. I just assumed the album was garbage.

 

[Iguana]

The charts are so confusing!

 

[joanne]

Liberation opened with 68k tota units why is @joanne lying

it sold 22,000 extra copies in my heart.

 

[joanne]

i confused Liberation's album-equivalent units with Kesha's Rainbow's pure album sales.

clearly committing to the clown theme of this album campaign.

 

[joanne]

In what universe did Aguilera open with 90k recently?

IN Chromatica!

 

[GNL]

The baby was the promo, and the promo failed Time to abandon child #1 and start on a new era Katheryn.

 

[K.C.]

Next single "Crazies, CRAZIES,.CRAZIES!!"

 

[SDF]

Will she rename the child?

 

[K.C.]

Will she rename the child?

Into what? "Firework"?

 

[jivafox]

It was a buzz baby.

 

[K.C.]

 

[Pipo]

Are y'all really still fighting over this girl?

Spoiler

 

[K.C.]

Not NORMAN

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

I’m so baffled by Katy Perry fans online saying her label haven’t supported her in this era - hasn’t she had LOADS of singles, and even more videos and visuals - some tracks with TWO VIDEOS!

She’s hardly been abandoned and slung to the dogs like KESHA!

 

[HeLikedTurner]

 

[K.C.]

Yikes.

Imagine how much energy you'd need to pretend to like this album. Nobody's working harder than her fans right now.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

She should have called it Smize - it would have had more buzz/traction and possibly even sales/streams...

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

I really do think this would have helped tbh

 

[HeLikedTurner]

I genuinely like the album a LOT, even though apparently that’s not allowed in here.

Would be more on brand with Katy stans as well, being stuck in 2011 and all...

I read that as Katy 'stains'

In her case it certainly fits the fanbase

Is that what they call them? Like Mariah has her lambs, etc.

 

[HeLikedTurner]

Jesus. What is with the venom in here regarding Katy Perry? I also don't understand why people who hate the album or have no interest in her, keep trolling this thread. What do you get out of that? I thought that kind of thing was for Popjustice.

 

[Tisch]

I actually don't hate the album at all. I just like this thread.

 

[HeLikedTurner]

Yeah, ok. I don't get it. Pissing on things other people are trying to enjoy. It doesn't do it for me. You do you though!

 

[joanne]
