Katy Perry - “Lifetimes”

[wjr15]

Upcoming track from ‘143’ that Katy previewed on Zane Lowe’s show.

[Dylan :)]

I need this like yesterday. Sounds like a bop! I hope we get a great video for it

[eyeofthestorm]

Yep, this is the one

[lazer]

The way Katy chose Woman’s World over this as the lead single is beyond incomprehensible.

[Juan Carlos]

This is next. A 30-second preview of the track is available on her YouTube channel.

This sounds better than WW but I’m not sure if a house track is really gonna take off in 2024. “Yes, and” and “Illusion”, while both bops, didn’t last very long on the charts.

Granted, this sounds like Walking On Air 2.0 so I’m sure I’ll love it regardless.

[bat1990]

Why were this and Gorgeous not a one-two punch of the first two singles??

[The Black Bird]

Produced by Dr. Luke



I like this way better than WW, but it's still dated, not sure how today's audience will react tbh.

[divasummer]

I like it, but it doesn’t really sound like a hit though.??

[avamaxstan]

If she has any sense left, she’ll scrap WW from the album and pretend it never happened, then drop this as the real lead single.

That’s most likely not happening since physicals have already been produced. They’re not gonna throw all of those out.

[Dylan :)]

This is such a bop. Imagine if they had led with it 😫

[Choco]

Ugh. Dr. Luke can still cook a production. It sounds better than WW for sure.

[SoMuchToSay]

Better than Woman’s World for sure. But also a Dr. Luke song, therefore I’m out, and won’t support or listen to any of her music produced by him. I sincerely hope she knows Woman’s World is not just flopping because it’s a bad song, it’s also produced by a predator which is a huge part of its negative reception upon listening.

It’s a big mistake to release another single produced by him. She’s getting cooked by the different fan groups for doing so, and she deserves every bit of it. I had zero respect when Nicki and Kim Petras did it, and Katy is no different.

[wavey.]

I liked this in the preview. I'm ready.

[Caviar]

I'm all in for house music.

I disagree. People dislike the fact it was by Dr Luke because it was a bad song. If it was good, people would have overlooked the fact it was by Dr Luke. Like Say So, Kiss Me More and Woman

[chickythelittlechicken]

This sounds really good! So excited!

Yup. The narrative has caught on because no one liked the song or the dated message. Luke didn't prevent Unholy or Say So from going #1.

(I believe Woman he didn't actually produce and he got retroactively credited because Doja pulled some magic tricks to keep his name off of Scarlet; he wasn't there initially).

Luke wasn't on Unholy.

Lifetimes sounds fine, but not like a hit in the US.

[HEADOFTHEPACK]

I do like the sound of this but it's dated like twice over lol - very similar to Walking on Air and coming in LATE to the house party.

[wjr15]

I’ve already heard this song on multiple IG stories. This might not end up being a mainstream hit but it’ll end up being a hit in the gay clubs.

[Ryan]

Longer clip:

[HEADOFTHEPACK]

Yeah the more I hear of it, the more I’m like HUH? to WW. Not trying to claim this is a masterpiece but it’s objectively superior and it’s not like KP is a shoe-in to have a hit anyway. She would have got some people on board vs the close to zero with WW. Bizarre, bizarre choices.

[PopLuva]

Im hooked on this one. It should of been the lead.

[Dylan :)]

Damn, release this now. The more I hear, the more I'm in love with it. The vocals!

[hitmakaontharise]

god please save her career. but maybe shes not chasing a big hit anymore....

[avamaxstan]

Why in gods name is still promoting WW on her socials?!? This is clearly already the next single, just release it with a video and bury that other aBOMBination. She’s a decade late to the house trend and I don’t think this will smash after how this era started, but it could be a cute little hit.

[MissAmericana]

Might be an unpopular opinion but wow, this is already the most generic dance pop song I’ve ever heard, lyrically and sonically.
