Her first single in nearly 10 years, and what should have been a blossoming for her career. This peaked at #87 on the Hot 100 and reached #25 on Pop. Such an underrated bop.

It's funny, cause I was actually just revisiting 2013 the other day, and this was one of the songs I picked to play. Still sounds just as good now. :'(
That said, it wouldn't surprise me if this simply got lost in the shuffle, what with Katy herself, then Gaga, then Britney, then "Wrecking Ball" all storming onto the chart one after the other. Plus Lana Del Rey had "Summertime Sadness" which became a sizable hit, and Lorde would also break out at this same time.
Bottom line: I wonder if this would've fared better had it been released a month or two earlier to have much more of the whole summer to build up.

Still love this so much and "Sleepwalker" is even better. Bonnie deserved better.

This sounded like a "Teenage Dream" leftover.

Yeah this screamed "leftover". Always thought it was weak. Sounded like what would have been rejected in favor of Last Friday Night.

I'll never get why this didn't perform better :( Such a jam.

One of my favorite songs of that year. Still have no clue why it wasn't huge. Bonnie is so hot too

I enjoyed it but she went on to release a lot better after this
More so since she stopped writing for KP, so most of her bops she wrote, she got to keep like Sleepwalker and I Want It All.
