Katy Perry: 'Thinking Of You'

Launching herself onto the world stage last year with the catchy-cum-controversial 'I Kissed A Girl', Katy Perry quickly became a media darling. Though she's since scored another smash with 'Hot N Cold', and bagged the International Female gong at the Brit Awards last month, she's probably as famous for her loose tongue and wacky dress sense as she is for her music.

Which is presumably why she's now releasing 'Thinking Of You', a more serious offering designed to show off her vocal and songwriting talents. It's a soft rock ballad pitched somewhere between Alanis Morissette and Evanescence, with angsty lyrics about thinking of one guy while kissing another. There's nothing in the way of novelty value here, making it a bigger challenge for Perry to pull off. So does she succeed? Well, certainly not for want of trying.
