Katy Perry - Hot N Cold (Capitol)

Katy Perry has had a huge summer. She embarked on several promotional tours introducing her to Europe and was earmarked by Madonna as one of her favourite artists of the moment. In addition, she landed a five week UK No 1 with the infectious (and truly irritating) 'I Kissed A Girl'.

With a disco feel to it, 'Hot N Cold' is certainly the most ear catching song on One Of The Boys. Katy Perry has a reputation for wacky dressing and lavish videos, and 'Hot N Cold' finds her jilted at the altar, only to track down the offender with a hoard of bridal dress wearing, baseball bat wielding maniacs.

The song speaks about lack of commitment, and has a distinct dance tone to it. The chorus is big and bold and is exactly what you need to feel good on a Friday night. Perry's tone is solid throughout and is somewhat reminiscent of a blend between a young Madonna and fellow '80s sensation Cyndi Lauper.

The song has already charted at 7 on the UK iTunes chart, reminding us that it's not only America who enjoy Perry's music. Only time will tell whether this will continue once the furore over her debut album has subsided.

Rating: 4/5

Katy Perry - Hot N Cold (Capitol)
Katy Perry still doesn't seem satisfied with her relationships. In her new tune, she has a go at her oblivious boyfriend for lack of commitment towards their relationship.
