Today: Something New

Most of what I post on here will not be all that mainstream. Sometimes though, I like a good pop song. For all of her flaws, Katy Perry can definitely produce catchy music. Her second record, "Teenage Dream," has been on top of the charts for the last year and a half. This doesn't always mean that it is good music, but I really enjoy the acoustic version of her latest single, "The One That Got Away."




Stripping away the pop arrangement and focusing on her voice and an acoustic guitar makes the lyrics and song more poignant than her original pop sound. I really like the different choices she makes for the melody, especially around the 3:30 mark.
