It's been over 3 years since this song was released!
I was addicted to this song. The beat was infectious, and I loved her vocals on this, the chorus is killer. I love the ending of the song when she just vocalizes California, and repeats it.
It was #1 on the Hot 100 for 6 weeks and her first #1 on the Radio Songs chart. The lead single of her smash Teenage Dream.

I believe there is a thread for this song so you don't need to make a new one.

I hate this. I get that it's catchy, but it has always annoyed the heck out of me.

"Tik Tok" still goes harder.

I still love this track. Yes, it's a bit novelty, yet it's the rare pop song that I can never get burned out on. "Teenage Dream" is still my favorite single from this era, but "California Gurls" is definitely right behind it.

This was just so fucking basic and a complete rip off of "Tik Tok". I never understood the hype.

Love this song, it's probably the one good thing I can say about California though.

I love this, it was so overplayed and it never bothered me one bit. That hook is an exquisite flavour of bubblegum.

Still such a defining song of the summer.

One of the best summer songs ever released. The video is iconic too. The aesthetics of the video literally defined the imagery of the Teenage Dream era.

Could never really get into her music, but this and "Firework" are the only singles I like from "Teenage Dream". It's a cute a song. Love candy theme and imagery from the video. I did grew up playing Candy Land.

This will forever be the summer anthem of the 2010s.

This song hit at the perfect time. Her and the video's style really elevated this. Now compare the aesthetic of this to Swish Swish and it's absolutely insane.
