Let me introduce songs by American singer-songwriter Katy Perry.

Katy Perry is widely known for her 2010 hit “California Gurls,” with its catchy, cute pop sound, but she also has plenty of cool tracks that are just as appealing.

Her musical background includes the gospel music she listened to as a child, and before debuting as Katy Perry, she reportedly released a gospel album.

Please enjoy this playlist full of Katy Perry’s charm.

It’s a very mysterious-feeling song, and the captivating music paired with her vocals naturally gets your body moving.

It’s a bit addictive—you can listen to it on endless repeat.

The a cappella group Pentatonix did a cover of it as well, which I also recommend.

This is a song that really conveys Katy’s strength.

It was performed at the Super Bowl halftime show, where she appeared wearing fire-inspired clothing and riding on a giant tiger.

It perfectly captures what makes Katy, Katy.

It sounds like a track you’d hear blasting in a club.

The tempo is upbeat, with a dance-music style arrangement that’s easy to groove to and appeals to younger listeners.

She’s usually associated with a pop sound, but this song lets you rediscover how good this kind of Katy can be.

With a very powerful singing voice and a bit of Jessie J-like rock vibe, it’s a cool track.

It feels like a band with drums and guitar at the core, with an electronic touch as well—a song where you can enjoy various sides of Katy.

Instead of her usual upbeat, poppy vibe, this one feels a bit calmer and somehow more girlish, and it sounds more like a country-style song with elements of Taylor Swift.

Something like this might be nice once in a while.

This is a well-known summer anthem celebrating California’s sun, sea, and laid-back vibe by Katy Perry.

Drawing inspiration from her own experiences, the American singer released the song in May 2010, and it quickly became a smash hit.

It topped the Billboard charts and was nominated for a Grammy.

It’s also known as an homage to the Beach Boys’ “California Girls.” When singing it at karaoke, why not channel your inner California girl and perform it brightly and energetically?

It’s a song that became quite famous in Japan as well.

It’s from a little while ago, but it’s her signature piece that I used to hear almost every day.

The lyrics are in English, but since there’s a lot of repetition and they’re not that difficult, I imagine some people learned it and sang it at karaoke.
