One of the Boys by Katy Perry
One of the Boys is an album by Katy Perry, released in 2008. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 5 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “I Kissed A Girl”, on 5 lists with a best position of #18.
One of the Boys, released through Capitol on June 17, 2008, is technically Katy Perry's second album, but it's the one that introduced her under that name: her first go-round, the gospel record Katy Hudson, came out under her real name on Red Hill back in 2001. This time she worked with a small army of producers, Butch Walker, Dr. Luke, Greg Wells and Dave Stewart among them, and they built her a candy-colored pop-rock sound with a smirk on its face.
"I Kissed a Girl" was the opening shot and her first number one on the Hot 100, "Hot n Cold" reached number three and topped the charts in Germany and Canada, and "Thinking of You" and "Waking Up in Vegas" kept the run going. Critics were split between hearing a stack of hits and hearing thin material, but it sold seven million copies worldwide and brought her two Grammy nominations.
