who sings the song i kissed a girl and i liked it
I Kissed a Girl (Jill Sobule song) In 2008, new pop-singer Katy Perry issued a song of her own called "I Kissed a Girl" for her debut album One of the Boys. The song received mixed reviews, with much of the negative reception originating to comparative inferiority with the Jill Sobule song.[according to whom?] Hiponline.com wrote that the song is "not nearly as interesting or exciting as you’d expect. It’s not even half as good as Jill Sobule’s song 'I Kissed a Girl'".[5] Glitterati Gossip wrote that Sobule's song "was ten times better, because there was actual emotional content to her lyrics".[6] Sobule shared her feelings about Perry's song and use of the title in a July 2009 interview with The Rumpus:
Max Martin Martin has written or co-written 22 Billboard Hot 100 number-one hits, most of which he has also produced or co-produced, including Katy Perry's "I Kissed a Girl" (2008), Maroon 5's "One More Night" (2012), Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" (2014) and The Weeknd's "Can't Feel My Face" (2015). Martin is the songwriter with the third-most number one singles on the chart, behind only Paul McCartney (32) and John Lennon (26).[3]
