Album Description
Ever since the November 2007 digital release of the hilarious, zeitgeist-capturing single "Ur So Gay," Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Katy Perry has been wowing critics and fans alike (including the Queen of Pop herself, Madonna) with her big voice, sassy attitude, and feisty, confessional songs. Katy's debut album, One of the Boys, is a sharp, witty pop-rock gem filled with candid tales of neurotic ex-boyfriends ("Hot N Cold," "Ur So Gay"), crazy road trips with friends ("Waking Up in Vegas"), and figuring out who you are along the way (first single "I Kissed A Girl," "Fingerprints"). While the album displays Katy's feisty, girl-power swagger, it also reveals her more vulnerable side on such regretful ballads as "Lost," "I'm Still Breathing," and "Thinking of You." Although just 23, the Santa Barbara, CA-born native has been writing songs and playing guitar for several years, and possesses the flair and confidence of a veteran storyteller. Catch her in all her glory this summer when she joins the Vans Warped Tour for its entire coast-to-coast run.

 Great Pop Album December 3, 2008
Just a pure fun party album. Not too serious and awesome catch phrases in the lyrics. I love that she included 'UR So Gay' on the album from her earlier work. Self-Inflicted is my foavorite that hasn't hit the airwaves yet.
 My favorite guilty pleasure December 2, 2008
With all the hype around Katy Perry, I had to check out what all the fuss is about. I recently acquired a copy of her cd ONE OF THE BOYS. I honestly didn't have any expectations for the album except maybe to not like it since I don't listen to pop music for most of the time. Much to my surprise, I found myself enjoying ONE OF THE BOYS. It is a fun, infectious pop/rock album and nothing more than that for me. The silly lyrics for the most part doesn't bother me but they do get on my nerves on songs like "Ur So Gay" and "I Kissed a Girl" (which has outstayed its welcome in pop culture IMO). My personal favorite songs on the album is "Waking Up in Vegas" and the anthemic "Hot 'N Cold". I especially like the infectious pop hooks in "Hot 'N Cold". Katy Perry has a pretty decent voice although there are times on the cd when she is better off turning it down a notch or two on the wailing. Overall ONE OF THE BOYS is a fun album, flawed but still fun.
 Mixed Bag November 27, 2008
There's a few killer, bouncy dance tracks here including the first two singles, but the remainder is a mixed bag, not quite as catchy, but worth a listen.
Catchy tunes November 27, 2008
This cd is pretty great for a debut album. Katy Perry knows her direction and she has her own style, and thats WAY BETTER than the other generic teenage pop stars who just pops pops pops.
Highlights of this album are (in order): Hot & Cold, Lost, I Kissed A Girl, One of The Boys, Ur So Gay, Waking Up in Vegas.
Recommended.

What's changed in cheap clueless teeny bopper market driven pop? Nothing. The more things change...
