They're more or less the same level to me. Both have very, very limited talent, but they get decent songs written for them. Perry's voice is far preferable to Britney's for me though. It may not be very strong, but at least it doesn't sound like some sort of cartoon character.

they get the good songs because top class pop songwriters save them all for those bitches. they know they'll get a good profit out of them instead of risk investing to non cash cows

britney's voice ain't hardly exceptional, but is way more flexible than katy's

It's flexible because vocoders can make it sound like anything.

So apparently her performance was a bigger trainwreck than Applause.

I guess that's what Katy Perry does though...pure cheese. It's kind of her thing. I don't even mean that in a bad way. Nobody else really does that, so she might as well. It's sort of her aesthetic.

Roar? It doesn't disgust me but is extremely bland. I've actively tried to get into it and I just can't. Everytime I listen to it I feel I need a shot of adrenaline afterwards.

It's a cracking tune. That chorus is immense.

So I guess after fruit and confectionary, the next step is plants and wildlife.

The chorus of Roar is actually literally 5 notes, with exactly two progressions (B♭–G–F, which gets reversed, and B♭–C–D–C–G–F).

Now, repetition is not a bad thing, the genius Dancing Queen is based on repetition. But I would reserve the word “immense” for something like Only Girl (In The World), which despite the repetitive pattern has both the variability and the range (an octave), and creates a towering effect in contrast with the verse. Now, Roar's chorus does sound better compared to the even more unimaginative verse, but is musically as interesting as California Gurls, if not less.

Great poster! I was waiting for a darker imagery for this song too. Now her teasers seem like a joke, but whatever, video teaser is really nice nonetheless, kinda adds a bit to a song. We have many pop girls with dark imagery already anyway.
