Katy Perry - Hot N Cold

Hi once again my dear friends!

さしぶりですね!It's been a while since I've last posted. Now that my semester has ended, I have the time and the mood now to blog! Yay! :)

Today, I'm bringing some pretty interesting songs which caught my attention recently to you. Hopefully you'll enjoy them as much as I do!

You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Yeah, you PMS like a bitch
I would know

And you always think
Always speak cryptically
I should know
That you're no good for me

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You, you don't really wanna stay, no
You, but you don't really wanna go, oh

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down

We used to be just like twins, so in sync
The same energy now's a dead battery
Used to laugh 'bout nothing
Now you're plain boring I should know
That you're not gonna change

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You, you don't really wanna stay, no
You, but you don't really wanna go, oh

You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down

Someone call the doctor
Got a case of a love bipolar
Stuck on a rollercoaster
Can't get off this ride

You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white

We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You, you don't really wanna stay, no
You, but you don't really wanna go, oh

You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down, down, down, down...

Katy Perry hit the globe with her first hit single, I Kissed A Girl. However, I prefer Hot N Cold. In this MV, I find the scene where everyone started shaking to the rhythm of the song. And I can't help but to notice that one of the bridesmaid is actually a guy dressed in a gown.. AND.. check out the little girl's facial reaction at the start of the video! LOL! Cute! Otherwise, this MV is a pretty 'stupid' MV.. Lol! But it's kinda cute! I don't know, what do you think?

What's special about this song, you may ask. Actually, I don't find this song exceptionally special or anything, it's just very fun to listen to. In the midst of the ever-growing playlist of RnB and Rap songs, it's pretty cool to go back to Pop once in a while. Besides, Hot N Cold has a little of alternative rock in it.

Its lyrics reminisce those of Avril Lavigne's earlier songs like My Happy Ending, Complicated and Sk8ter Boy. A little of anger plus a nice melody makes this song nice to listen to. :D

The lyrics itself do not bring too much meaning other than the anger of a girl towards a guy who couldn't make his mind up and keeps going back and forth with his decisions. I'm sure we will come across people like this in our life, or we might even be the one going back and forth over our decisions. We're so obsessed over making the right decision and sometimes psyche ourselves out with debates over decisions in our minds.

When you find yourself faced with such difficulty, take a deep breath and clear your mind. I have a method that works pretty well for me. First, list out your options, then list out the possible 'Pros' and 'Cons' for each option. This will help you look at things much clearly. You don't have to choose the one with the most Pros, but this method allows you to look at things more objectively and clearly when you have things listed out in black and white. I hope that little tip could save you some trouble in the future! :)

Anyways, I guess this entry is long enough to stand on its own. I'll update you with other interesting songs some other time I guess. By the way, my first entry of the year! Yay! Am having exams on this Saturday and the coming Tuesday. Lol! Hope no bad surprises this time around. Good luck to my coursemates and to everyone else! :D
