A spunky little pop-rock number, in which Miss Perry (or Mrs. Brand) tells us that she's going to make something of her life and not be "sitting on the sidelines watching it pass me by

(By the way, Robyn is the best pop out there now

The album's tongue-in-cheek and sometimes controversial lyrics give it a unique touch among countless teen pop and bubblegum-flavored albums, which are essentially a dime a dozen in today's modern pop world

While Katy Perry's debut can be easily criticized for having hitmaker songwriters and producers and an overall "sheen" to it, the songs themselves are incredibly hooky and despite minor gripes, a good pop tune is a good pop tune, no matter who wrote it

What's changed in cheap clueless teeny bopper market driven pop

Overall, One of the Boys can easily be considered one of the best pop albums of the year, and deservedly so.

The title track, "Waking Up in Vegas", and "Self-Inflicted" are the closest to "classic" pop that she gets; the latter two are among the best tracks on the CD

but it's a good pop song

This album goes from the dynamic pop of One of The Boys to the dancing electro of I Kissed A Girl and Hot `n' Cold

Some of the lyrics are funny but pretty much, it's a standard, superficial pop track

While I will admit some bands/artists seem a bit too calculated and image-handled, sometimes you just know a good pop tune when you hear one

This is not a bad pop album but it's not as good as her other album

While most of the rest of the CD is likable pop, there are a few slower ballads like "I'm Still Breathing", "Lost", and "Thinking of You"

Desmond Child and the usual pop-trash suspects involved in this beauty.

Reminds me of Michelle Branch's "Breathe" which was sort of a great pop tune for people who aren't into pop starlets

The title track, "Waking Up In Vegas", "Mannequin", "If You Can Afford Me", "Lost"--all of them have infectious melodies and choruses with pure pop energy not unlike Kelly Clarkson, P!nk, All American Rejects, etc

While I very much like the quality of Katy Perry's voice - she's a husky pop shouter with a delicate breathiness in her upper register (I suspect, from Youtube clips, that she requires some studio assistance to deliver a vocal take with no tuning issues, but that's not a major problem on a record!

Compared to the enormous boatload of JUNK that exists in this music world of today, I love the catchy Pop/Jazz/Hip-hop style of Katy Perry's music AND the way she sings it

So I simply have stopped listening to it (except for an occasional spin for background noise, or for the singles), unlike most of my favorite pop albums, which, contrary to their reputation as 'pop' albums, often hold up very well

I do not view this as stereotypical Pop music

Enjoyable but potentially forgettable pop ditty

They are two pieces of pure pop platinum!Listening to the rest of the album was almost as much of a pleasure

However, if you are lucky enough to avoid radio and you enjoy bubblegum pop, then you've come to the right place.

Great pop music.

This album is a veritable pop masterpiece, and not just the hits, which are all war cries of our schizophrenic, gender confused cyber era.
