    This project feels like an uninspired one, I wanted to like it but it didn't happen.

    With music as rigidly formulaic as this, no wonder the teens in her songs want to party until they blank out

    Weak album that only had successful songs due to the massive radio payola at the time.

    Esse álbum é um lixo total, foi esmagado pelo The Fame Monster da Gaga no Grammy e nas vendas também!

    Album fraco com produções batidas e letras infantis, Katy Perry fez esse album pensando nos charts e não na qualidade do album em si.

  1. After some severe front-loading, the album is filled out by songs that are too dark or lifeless to work alongside the Candyland motif of the cover and sunbeamy splash of California Gurls.
  2. Teenage Dream is the kind of pool-party-pop gem that Gwen Stefani used to crank out on the regular, full of SoCal ambience and disco beats.
  3. There's none of the ABBA or Cardigans influence she claimed, nor any of the fun she seems to have in real life. For now she just sounds like another of pop's Stepford Wives.
