As the seemingly endless build up to Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream album release on August 24th continues (I can’t wait to stop talking about her!), two new tracks have leaked to the net. The reported third single from the album, “Firework,” is the third track from the album that will no doubt be a radio hit. Don’t expect it to be as big as “California Gurls” or “Teenage Dream”, but it’s got a soaring vocal chorus that will keep the airplay numbers up. It’s also surely got the House DJs of the world scrambling to get to work on crafting their next euphoria inducing hit out of the vocal track. Check out the song below and let me know what you think.

“Firework”

“Peacock” has been buzzed about for a few weeks now on the net. Katy performed it live a while back and people have been anticipating it since, mostly due to the pretty obvious innuendos and double entendres in the lyrics.  The track itself turns out to be more of a stomper than anything. In fact, some of it reminds me of Gwen Stefani’s “Hollaback Girl,” yet not in the same league as Gwen’s epic hit. Anyways, I’m sure this will be lined up as a single sooner or later. Take a listen.
