The katyperry Renaissance is here, undeniably and spectacularly. 🙌
With her latest single, released on Friday , Perry has recovered the top-level song craft that both her fans and general pop enthusiasts have been craving for years, a return to form for an artist who spent the better part of this decade’s first half dominating the mainstream. Katy Perry, expert pop-song supplier, is back. Resistance isn't futile, but it’s a lot less fun.
But then “Never Really Over” happened. Another team-up with Zedd, the breakup single contained the sort of ecstatic hooks that Perry had mastered during herdays. There’s an appealing looseness to the song’s energy -- with a rapid-fire chorus and the ticking-clock production that Zedd has turned into a recent touchstone, “Never Really Over” allowed Perry to showcase the elasticity of her personality in a way that thesingles and “365” did not.
It’s too soon to tell whether or not “Small Talk” will continue Perry’s hit streak, but the promise of “Never Really Over” is fully realized on its follow-up. Co-written and co-produced by, “Small Talk” is a total blast, pairing sly, confident songwriting with the lovable quirkiness that Perry kept at the heart of past hits like “Waking Up in Vegas” and “Last Friday Night .” “Small Talk” is fascinating to absorb because of how right Perry gets it on the track.
And whereas the “Never Really Over” chorus returned Perry to her “Firework”-esque grandiosity, the main hook of “Small Talk” is all jittery energy as she reviews the shifted relationship in front of her: “Had every inch of your skin, there's nowhere your hands haven't been / Ain't it funny? ‘Cause now there's nothing left but small talk.
