    OMG. I don't know why people hate. This is a great album to listen to while you're on a long roadtrip with your girlfriends! Katy Perry's lyrics are funny, witty, and easy to sing to. I recommend this to anyone who has a sense of humor and likes to have fun.

    the reason people hate katy perry is because she has controversial lyrics, but actually she is very talented and a good singer/songwriter. anyways this album is great and not one song is a throwaway.

    My favorite album of 2008 and still waiting for another one that will match the quality and number of great songs that are on "One of the boys". I can't understand the hate against Katy Perry who is a deserving artist... from a christian family, to church singer, waitress in LA, almost broke, to finally making it to the top because of her great music and songs.

    From "One Of The Boys" to "Fingerprint" to the bonus tracks like "I Think I'm Ready", "Cup Of Coffee", "Electric Feel", and "Black & Gold" every track on this album is flawless. I really like the billboard review. At that time it had been a minute since an album was full of so many potential hits. I honestly had to pick my jaw off the ground when i saw the low 6.0 user rating on here!

    Simply amazing. This is the real Katy Perry! Well she still can't sing that well, and she's quite terrible live - but this album represents her. Not purely commercial Teenage Dream.

    Still my favorite Katy Perry album. It more personal than Teenage Dream, and has an rock edge to it. I'm still breathing remains my favorite song of all time. I hope to seem more material like this in her upcoming album.

    Fresh and iconic. Creative, Controversial and crazy lyrics. Her debut album is a proof that she is a brave and fierce woman. She likes to have fun and break some of the rules and thats why I love her. Lost is one of my favorite songs from this album. She can sing, no doubt. I just love her.

    Um álbum de estreia muito coeso e com uma sonoridade unica e marcante assim como uma estética vintage que se tornou a marca registrada do inicio da carreira de Katy Perry.
    A mistura de rock e pop é característico desse álbum que marca o inicio de ótimos trabalhos posteriores ao 'One of the boys'. Outra característica marcante é o fato de ser todo escrito ou co-escrito pela própria Katy

Now the feeling is the same like the first time, I just wanna sing loudly all songs, Thanks to this album we have: "Hot N' Cold", "Thinking Of You", "I Kissed A Girl", and other songs that we used to hear when we were younger.

    this album is such an iconic debut album. "i kissed a girl" and "waking up in vegas" are BOPS. "thinking of you" is so beautiful and you can really feel her emotion when she sings it, live or studio.

    This album is a very strong debut for Perry. It's filled with versatile songs of varying subjects, and truly showcase a unique woman. While this album wasn't a take off for Katy, it is still a strong start for her and showcases her roots in musics and the battle she faced to get where she is today.

    Sometimes gets boring but it still has thinking of you on it. That song is just something else. Also has many other bops too

  1. The problem is not with Katy's gender-bending, it's that her heart isn't in it; she's just using it to get her places, so she sinks to crass, craven depths that turn One of the Boys into a grotesque emblem of all the wretched excesses of this decade.
  2. Yes, Perry has a heart, but it sounds like her bustier's too tight for her to use it.
  3. 'Mannequin' features some cleverly written lyrics, but Perry doesn't possess the grit or vocal prowess to follow through, and the title track is like No Doubt's 'Just a Girl' sans personality and conviction.
