If you ever really dive into a Katy Perry song (whilst singing into your
comb in your bedroom with extra-glossy lip balm on and doing 360
hip swivels), you might actually hear some melody.
Teenage Dream is one of the most over-produced, toxic hits of the
top 40 these days - but it's smart. It's catchy. It crawls inside your brain
and lays eggs and stays there for a days. I played bass for this song
(with a phazer pedal) on saturday and I actually felt myself getting
into the groove of it.
There is no breakdown and there are 3 notes you play on bass, over and
over and over.
But it just feels right.
