I Kissed a Girl


"I Kissed a Girl" is a song by American singer Katy Perry, written by Perry herself along with Dr. Luke, Max Martin, and Cathy Dennis. The song was released as the lead single from Perry's second studio album, "One of the Boys", in 2008. It became a commercial success, reaching the top of the charts in several countries. The song stirred controversy due to its lyrics which explore same-sex experimentation. Katy Perry's bold and catchy vocals, along with the pop-rock style, deliver a lively and energetic melody that became a signature element of her early music career.
