so this song has been out 10 days and i'm guessing the video has a really low number of views...around 7K?

So the song is about Joshua Homme and he got a bottle broken on his head

Perry doesn't really care. It's Etty. He told me once that he would beg her to stay off the message boards because of the drama it created.

It’s by far the best thing he has done in a decade. I think it’s good. It could have been a GGU era (B-side)

I think that's a touch generous.

i wish musicians would stick to what they are good at .. its like they reach a point of success where they decide they have earned the right to appropriate a style that is completely not their own and prove they can do anything .. perrys voice as some kind of sultry lounge singer is just trash ..

I completely agree with this.

The music is actually quite good (or not all that bad) and, as others have said, remeniscent of GGU era PfP.

But the singing ... There's just no power left in his voice, whatever key they play in.

I like when Perry goes acoustic, I wish he does it more often. But cannot be compared to anything from GGU.
Just another Perry's song done with good musicians.
Not bad, not great.
More bad than great.
