So sorry. That was a very elementary written article. My bad. Deleted for all involved.

Purchased, smash hit, will be #1 for weeks. While this song isn't as instant as CG, it does its job at keeping Katy likable and easy to relate to, in the same vein as Firework. Definitely a perfect late Summer/Fall song, but I didn't expect anything less. Her and her label are great at catering to the seasons. On a totally different note, this is the kind of song Ke$ha needed to appeal more to the masses

So nice to see such love for Teenage Dream (single). It's really one of the best pure pop singles of the past decade. And, for me at least, it still gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it.
It one of those songs that was instant, the moment I first heard it.
The only song of Lady Gaga that became instant on first listen was Alejandro. The others were growers.

She is killing it.
1. Katy Perry - Roar 1.0000 2. Robin Thicke - Blurred Lines (feat. T.I. & Pharrell) 0.4304
And she has another version charting as well! 43. Sara Bareilles - Brave
SMASH!

Just thought I should throw in my support for Teenage Dream as well. It is the perfect pop song.
This is almost as awesome though and I have been listening to it nonstop. I love the obvious Sara B influence as she is another of my favorite artists.

That site is worthless. The numbers are never near where they actually end up.

With a #49 debut on Pop and a #50 debut on Hot AC, "Roar" could potentially set records for biggest jump on both those formats. DuckHead reports that Madonna's "Frozen" might have the record for largest jump on CHR/Pop, from #45 to #15. pulsemusic.proboards.com/post/2722748/threadTherefore Katy would need to jump to at least #18 to break the record. 5000 spins would probably cinch it. Day 1: 1286 spins

Okay so any confirmation whether or not she sampled this from Sarah? UGH I love this damn song from the first listen. It made me think of Katy as a raw artist who is 28 and fun to be able to relate to her in that form. I just can't if she stole the beat from Sarah. In the long run I love it and it is a perfect safe first singel from Katy. Hot AC/ AC/ Pop will make this a smash for the fall. Good for her. I just wish the other media hungry ( I love the old GaGa hopefully she comes back ) could have let Katy have her time. Really...one week.

Katy is one of my favs but when I hear the beginning beats and chords the similarity to brave just bugs the hell out of me. That plus the message is identical. What was she thinking?

Does anyone remember the lead "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" had? I think it may have pushed the #2 song down to 0.19 but I'm not sure.

I am a huge Taylor fan, but she got lucky with WANEGBT. She literally had no competition. She didn't have to compete with a Blurred Lines-sized multi-format smash.

This song reminds me of a kids cereal commercial. Maybe frosted flakes from tony the tiger, and wheaties from eye of the champion

I think this song might make me a stan and I might buy all her albums instead of just the singles. I am impressed!

Well you said "commercial" twice in your response, so that is a good sign.

I'm beginning to doubt Gaga will actually pass her. I'd like to be proven wrong though.
