Yep, she was adorable. But the more money comes in, the more controlled you are. I doubt she ever was interested singing over the noisy dancey beats on every pop song today.
Acoustic sets really showcase her talent. People are raving over I Kissed a Girl, but honestly, I'd take this any day over I Kissed a Girl. This song is actually about something (which helps) and I think her sounds absolutely divine here.
Her voice is real. It's not computerized like other Singers. Sometimes I get dissapointed to hear that a singer doesn't sound like their albums... But she's a True singer!
I am always so impressed with Katy. Her vocals and guitar is so perfect on this and One Of The Boys, and not even in a studio, it's live. She is truly talented.
She didn't ruin it. Her record label decided the other songs would get her the necessary exposure, and they were correct. She's huge now. This is one of the songs she wrote herself. All of her single, besides thinking of you, were written by other individuals with her assistance.
"Watch this up and coming artist show off her talent for our KISS listeners!" Oh those were the days..................... and NOW she has her own HEADLINING TOUR! That, by the way, I went to last night.... 19,000 people.......
You forget how talented she really is because of the nonsense she puts out now. This is so raw and genuine if she was more like this now I would definitely be a fan. I used to love this stuff then lost interest when she blew up
Nowadays she tries too hard to make her songs relatable which rips the creativity and originalty off of the lyrics. And she only does this because she knows it sells more
This is my favorite song on her album i can relate so much with all of her songs, i love her soo much and i look up to her. i hope she has an amazing career and just gets bigger and bigger.
Sometimes I watch these vids to copy her left hand onto my guitar, sometimes I just relax to listen to her audible beauty. In either case, it's awesome! ❤️❤️❤️
Katy, ur the greatest. I love this vid of u playing guitar and performing. many ppl don't know how much of a real musician u are and how long u fought to get where u are. kudo's, my dear. keep doing what u do.... what ur meant to do. u rock. XO
She's still there, she just performs differently nowadays to express herself through her crazy outfits and dancing but shes still just the girl with the guitar really
there's great imagery here with the lyrics.. and awesome technique in vox from a rock standpoint.. You can definitely see a significant divide between this and those "I kissed a girl" and "hot and cold" performances for mtv and youtube
Please don't tell me I'm the only guy who listens to Katy Perry. You rock Katy, wish you would go back to stuff like this, but I know corporate America won't ever let that happen!
Ya know I hear alot of talk on youtube that Kate Perry cant sing. Those people should see this amazing video. This girl is full of talent. Great guitar playing, sweeet sweet voice, heartfelt lyrics... and obvious passion for music.
Katy is still Katy, people change. their lives change. and of course in music peoples style of music constantly change and there isnt anything wrong with that. i love her old music as well as the new and i look forward to the next. ill be a proud katycat til the day i die
To tell you the truth I love Katy both ways... I don't care if she sang better back then or if she sings horrible now I am a true Katy Perry fan and I will always love her no matter what.
awwesome, she's a REAL talent. she can play the guitar VERY well AND SING beatifully. i love to see an pop artist that deserves the mainstream in this world with so many that don't.
She can't sing live?
She really can sing live and it is so perfect
She should always do this. she doesn't need all the glam.
Still love that she wrote this alone. One of my favs.
i wis she made an acoustic album of all her old songs that would be amazing
Me too
Tara Garcia It's called Katy Perry Mtv Unplugged ;)
Yes
This is definietly my favorite song on her whole album.
This is one of my fav songs of her discography!
I remember being obsessed with this video in 2008😭
I dind't realize how talented she is until I watched her videos like this one
cssst5 hey wassup now.
Katy has a nice voice guys, her style of singing is pop rock ya know. Still love her!
I miss this Katy! :(
Yep, she was adorable. But the more money comes in, the more controlled you are. I doubt she ever was interested singing over the noisy dancey beats on every pop song today.
I think you people just know little about her and don't understand the little you know.
Klaus Geltl
Lol it's cool that you know everything about her - and I'm sure you do - but there's no need to insult us. That's pretty rude.
+Rachel Foster If you miss her, you should listen Double Rainbow, Thinking of you/The one that got away live ITS HER
Rachel Foster only cause she has got short hair now?
Holy hell, her voice sounds infinitely perfect here.
Acoustic sets really showcase her talent. People are raving over I Kissed a Girl, but honestly, I'd take this any day over I Kissed a Girl. This song is actually about something (which helps) and I think her sounds absolutely divine here.
I love that 'If the past is the problem, the future can solve them baby' her accent comes out and it's gorgeous!
Her voice is real. It's not computerized like other Singers. Sometimes I get dissapointed to hear that a singer doesn't sound like their albums... But she's a True singer!
This performance was absolutely flawless!
I am always so impressed with Katy.
Her vocals and guitar is so perfect on this and One Of The Boys, and not even in a studio, it's live. She is truly talented.
she sounds surprisingly good live
Omg this song is so hard to sing and she sings it just like in the studio version! Katy slays
you can see she's holding back tears, such a true artist
I miss her old songs, at least they’re always here to listen to
I used to watch this video everyday. I watched it the day it was posted. It’s been 15 years now.
She didn't ruin it. Her record label decided the other songs would get her the necessary exposure, and they were correct. She's huge now. This is one of the songs she wrote herself. All of her single, besides thinking of you, were written by other individuals with her assistance.
2017 but still listening to this one. and I do miss katy perry's girly looks
i love this song especially this version bc she is singing it the way it was meant to be heard
Yes her singing is awesome, but she's one of the singers who I personally think has the best music videos😍
This is the Katy Perry I love! Please return to your genuine talented roots!
I miss this Katy!
genius. she is such a musical inspiration! XD
she has an incredible passion for her songs and it really shows in her live performances! soooo amazing omg!
i love that little yell in her voice when she says "YOU'RE not a MAAAN, YOU'RE just a MAAAAANEQUIN"
I miss this style :( I love her current music, but I think she's was more authentic in One of the Boys era and before that...
She's got real class, both as a singer and as a musician. Plus, she's really gorgeous as well. She's the whole package. Simple as.
"Watch this up and coming artist show off her talent for our KISS listeners!"
Oh those were the days..................... and NOW she has her own HEADLINING TOUR!
That, by the way, I went to last night.... 19,000 people.......
You forget how talented she really is because of the nonsense she puts out now. This is so raw and genuine if she was more like this now I would definitely be a fan. I used to love this stuff then lost interest when she blew up
She's just doing what she has always wanted to do
no, now she's doing what makes her the most money
I'm not saying I wouldn't do the same thing. like get that money girl. I'm just saying I lost interest lol
nonsense? Do you know how to listen to the lyrics of her songs
Nowadays she tries too hard to make her songs relatable which rips the creativity and originalty off of the lyrics. And she only does this because she knows it sells more
This is my favorite song on her album
i can relate so much with all of her songs, i love her soo much and i look up to her. i hope she has an amazing career and just gets bigger and bigger.
Take me back to my high school life. Nostalgia is real. 06/07/2020
I love her this way. Just her singing and playing the guitar.
I didn't think she could sing this good live :) go Katy!
I can't decide if I like this version or the cd version better... But this one is so much more intimate, LOVE it!
Love Katy and her voice. Beautiful!
I absolutely love this song. And this Katy. She's so talented and pure.
she sounds really good live. almost better than the record
many people say she can't sing live, but here's the living proof that she can
her songs make me feel so good and one more thing i cant seem to find out thats good.
Sometimes I watch these vids to copy her left hand onto my guitar, sometimes I just relax to listen to her audible beauty. In either case, it's awesome! ❤️❤️❤️
Same!
Klaus Geltl i see you everywhere😂😂😂😂
How could somebody press thumbsdown?
her voice is soooo....sweet.
Katy, ur the greatest. I love this vid of u playing guitar and performing. many ppl don't know how much of a real musician u are and how long u fought to get where u are. kudo's, my dear. keep doing what u do.... what ur meant to do. u rock. XO
I miss old Katy Perry. :'(
She's still there, she just performs differently nowadays to express herself through her crazy outfits and dancing but shes still just the girl with the guitar really
15 years later this one might still be my favorite UA-cam video
She sings good when she's not shouting. Quiet and soft suits her voice.
her voice is so good! i love it! only a few artists sound good live..she's amazing!
i'm not really a 21st century pop person but god i love this era of her so much
WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL OF RESPECT FOR THIS WOMAN!!!
Man..How can someone be so beautiful and talent???!She is truly blessed.Loove that contralto voice.
I Miss The Old Days Katy...
I Just Cant Stop Crying (:
I love this song sung acoustically.
Man so raw and refined at the same time😮
I totally agree with you. I keep listening to the acoustics on repeat! :)
there's great imagery here with the lyrics.. and awesome technique in vox from a rock standpoint.. You can definitely see a significant divide between this and those "I kissed a girl" and "hot and cold" performances for mtv and youtube
Please don't tell me I'm the only guy who listens to Katy Perry. You rock Katy, wish you would go back to stuff like this, but I know corporate America won't ever let that happen!
Lovin all her songs! She is absolutely talented!
i dont know why people keep on saying she cant sing. she frikin CAN sing, and she ROCKS at it too!
this song needs an official music video !
Ya know I hear alot of talk on youtube that Kate Perry cant sing. Those people should see this amazing video. This girl is full of talent. Great guitar playing, sweeet sweet voice, heartfelt lyrics... and obvious passion for music.
when she sings live and she doesn't strain her voice so much, she sounds really pretty
this sounds so awesome, her voice is so unique and she knows how to write music to suit it.
talented or what
her songs are very relatable. that's part of the reason i love her music so much.
she is one of the most talented songwriter/singers
This is so perfect, especially when she knocks her guitar when she sings "knocking on wood"
seriously,that's her best show
the love I have for this version
10 years ago 😩😩😩
she actually sang this pretty good! songs like this, she should perform more often.
This is amazing!
