It gave us sticky sheets (because of the candy floss): Katy Perry 'Teenage Dream'

Robot & Pigeon didn't really like it when Katy Perry kissed a girl and she liked it. We did get all yes then no, then up then down, then in then out when she was Hot N Cold. And we certainly put our Daisy Duke bikinis on top for California Gurls. Now we're piling on the Sudocreme in an attempt to keep up with her Teenage Dream.

Everyone is getting excited because the album cover features Perry naked and lying in candy floss. To be honest we'd prefer ours on a stick. We don't want lady bits rubbed all over our spun sugar thank you very much.

However, the cover is of little importance. What we care about is what comes on the shiny disc/illegal download. And lots of the songs leaked onto the internet this week so we can have a little listen.

We're excited about this:
Katy Perry 'Last Friday Night':


And a bit more excited about this:
Katy Perry 'Peacock':

But most of all excited about this:
Katy Perry 'Firework':

They'll probably get taken down before we even hit 'publish' on this post. So here's a written description (using words) to describe what we heard (using ears).

Last Friday Night: The party song. Culminates in a "T.G.I.F" chant and a faux sax solo.

Peacock: An extremely thin metaphor for "Show me your penis", but sung in the style of Lady Gaga so that's ok then.

Firework: Awful, awful, awful lyrics. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant song. Think Kelis' '4th Of July', but with people actually buying the record.

We know Perry is an acquired taste, but she tastes of fun, and we like eating fun.
