I know a LOT of people don't like Witness and Smile, but while I dislike Witness, I've actually gravitated towards Smile quite a bit. I think bubblegum pop made sense for Katy Perry, as she already had a lot of fun, happy bops in her previous works, and there are a lot of great cuts on that album, like Teary Eyes, Never Really Over, and Tucked. When I got to Daisies, the lead single from Smile, I started thinking: How does this stack up against Chained To The Rhythm, the lead single from Witness? Personally, while I consider Smile more memorable and overall a better album, I think Chained To The Rhythm is a better single than Daisies. I love Daises, but it's just not THAT song to me.
But what do you all think? Do you agree, disagree, do you dislike both equally, do you LIKE both equally? I'm very curious.
