List Of Songs Recorded By Katy Perry
American singer Katy Perry has recorded songs for six studio albums. After singing at church during her childhood, she decided to pursue a career in music in her teenage years. She signed a record deal with Red Hill Records, and released a gospel album called '' Katy Hudson'' in 2001. She wrote its songs "Last Call", "My Own Monster", "Spit", and "When There's Nothing Left" by herself while co-writing the remaining six with Mark Dickson, Scott Faircloff, Tommy Collier, and Brian White. The album was unsuccessful and it failed to garner any attention. Red Hill Records shut down later that year. Following two unsuccessful contracts with Island Def Jam Records and Columbia Records, whereby Perry was dropped by both them before she could finish an album, she ultimately secured a deal with Capitol Records in 2007, a division of record label Virgin. Her second studio album, ''One of the Boys'', was released in June 2008. The pop-rock album was composed over a period of five years. ...

MTV Unplugged (Katy Perry Album)
''MTV Unplugged'' (listed on iTunes as ''MTV Unplugged: Katy Perry'') is an extended play (EP) and live album by American singer Katy Perry, released in the United States on November 13, 2009, by Capitol Records. After airing more than 100 ''MTV Unplugged'' specials, MTV wanted to bring back the series, in order to expose them to a younger generation. The channel recruited various mainstream and popular artists to perform as part of the series, including Perry, who particularly expressed interest in the idea as it would allow her to showcase herself as an artist and share the stories behind her songs. The extended play includes rearrangements of five songs from Perry's album ''One of the Boys'' (2008), a previously unreleased original song and a cover version of a song by Fountains of Wayne.

All I Ever Wanted (album)
''All I Ever Wanted'' is the fourth studio album by American pop singer Kelly Clarkson, released on March 6, 2009, by RCA Records. After the controversies that surrounded her previous studio album, ''My December'' (2007), which was seen as much darker than her other two albums, Clarkson went on to record a more pop-oriented album. In order to do so, she enlisted her previous collaborators Max Martin, Dr. Luke, (whom she worked with on her 2004 second album, '' Breakaway''), Sam Watters and Louis Biancaniello (whom she worked with on her 2003 debut album '' Thankful''), and new collaborators, Ryan Tedder, Howard Benson and Dre & Vidal. Originally entitled ''Masquerade'', its title was changed due to the similarities to those of other albums released at the same time, such as Pink's ''Funhouse'' (2008) and Britney Spears' ''Circus'' (2008). ''All I Ever Wanted'' was considered lighter and less angry than her previous effort, though it also features pop rock and pop punk-inspired song ...

Ur So Gay
"Ur So Gay" is a song released by American singer Katy Perry from her EP of the same name. She co-wrote the song with its producer Greg Wells while Drew Pearson served as the track's engineer. It was later included on her second studio album ''One of the Boys''. Background and composition When asked about the song, Perry said it was about a metrosexual boy. The song "wasn't meant to be a big single or show what the album is going to be all about. That was for my Internet bloggers, so I'm not coming out of nowhere." Perry's A&R representative Chris Anokute confirmed this by saying that they had no plans for radio coverage but just wanted to put this "novelty" song out online as an introduction to see "what the attraction was". As expected, sales were low, but Anokute said the track did well in terms of building a press story. Due to the song's content, there was concern from the label over commercially releasing "Ur So Gay". "Ur So Gay" moves at a moderate pace. According to ...
