it's still on the charts 3 years later. Why is it? Probably bc it was on sale at amazon for 3.99 last week

it's still on the charts 3 years later. Why is it? Because her 2345054830893 performances during that era were ingrained in the GP's minds forever. Capitol also secretly embedded cult messages in her music to make the public cave in to finally buy her album after the nonstop harassment of hearing it all over pop radio, and suffering through her live performances.

Teenage Dream was a perfect pop album. LOL. ![](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m75ldvwFzd1rtr9hpo1_500.gif) It was the perfect pop album...Not the best. I don't think Katy made that album thinking it was going to be the next Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band or OK Computer(Or In the Zone, I guess). But it was a perfect popular album.

it's still on the charts 3 years later. Why is it? So it's still charting and went 2x Platinum given 6 or 7 singles. Big deal. It's not just about numbers, which are not phenomenal for TD anyways. It may have had a few good singles (questionable), but the point is it's nowhere near “perfect pop.” As far as I remember, it was not a critics' favorite either. Going from I Kissed a Girl to California Gurls was shameful.

Another green update on iTunes. :'(
This song has exceeded my expectations time and time again with its performance (and it's only been a week), squishing Applause, dominating Blurred Lines and gaining a week later with no promo and no music video.
The only dark spot is that negative audience update today... I'm sure I'm just paranoid though, there's no way radio will let this do anything other than smash straight to the top!

Mhmmm. You'd think someone who Stans for someone even less talented than Katy Perry and even more of a product you'd think he'd not be so vocal. If ya gonna throw Katy out to the sharks guess who goes with her? ![](http://missdimplez.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/12537513-3f3.gif)

Katy's entire music career has consisted of having sleepovers with her label to figure out how to continuously suck radio's dick while making it appear fresh. At least Rih was progressive with hers. :'(

So everything you say against Katy comes back to that other puppet. But at least Katy seems to write and be somewhat alert and alive(without having to pop something before hand). Just know that all of this makes you're opinion...INVALID. Thanks, please come again. ![](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ls3mltGPSg1qkeuixo1_500.jpg) So, Roar is still #1 and back to having green updates sweet, cool, awesome, etc etc etc.

We don't know, and we do not care. Do we use her? Nope. So let him be. Any news on Roar video release?

That was essentially my retort when people were saying they expected more than "Roar." I don't expect anything serious, but I think she has the potential to make an (even) better pop album.

Five of its singles received very heavy radio airplay. After that you're impressed that it went 2xP? Lol. Taylor Swift went 4xP with 6 singles.

My fave sell's out ARENA'S/STADIUMS/and everything in between. My favorite also is highly respected and is arguably the greatest living performer EVER(out of the new school bitches..but she's up there with the best too #FemaleMJ). Enough about Queen Beysus.... I agree Gold, Katy is capable of more and even better. But at the end of the day she's making fun, pop music that I love so why would I want her to f**k that up? At the end of the day Katy is killin' it, and I'm enjoying the music so it's like a WIN/WIN for me :) xoxoxo

Of course we all know we aren't soley talking about airplay, given the 30M sales figure for her single sales from TD, and PLUS....*gulp*...the #1's on the Hot 100. Can Taylor beat that?

Looking at Vancho's shady history I have decided to put him on the Katy Perry Stan ignore list. He's not bringing anything new or exciting with his broken record hate(at least mix it up, throw in a fucking gif or something). We will not be using her going forward. So 544,000 from Itunes alone? Nice. Still #1 on Itunes? Nice. The era is starting off pitch perfect so far.

I like Katy and I want her to record truly novel songs like I Kissed a Girl again. That's why I was disappointed that Roar is heading towards the direction of TD again, b/c I have high standards for her.

@katy Perry Secretly... I love how when I wrote #ROAR I was just trying to write a song about being a mega cat lady. Shhh, don't tell anyone. ????
I swear she writes her songs for me <3

You can't just talk about one thing (album sales, singles sales, video views, streaming, etc). You are comparing ERAS, so EVERYTHING is included. Katy sold 2.7M albums and sold 30M singles. That is hard to top. Lets just be real here. It is justifiably one of the biggest eras of all time. I don't know why you are being so negative about it. It's pure and simple FACT. Let it be. Lets move on to Prism.

I swear everytime I log into Pulse I lose hope with humanity. Is anyone else surprised at how well Roar is holding up? Like I thought for sure she'd have lost #1 to Thicke, but it hasn't happened. I'm stunned but ecstatic. Edit: Josh defending me(in a Katy Perry thread no less) ![](http://ronaldmatters.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/bey-crying.gif)
