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:
My Girl (The Temptations song) "My Girl" is a 1964 standard recorded by the Temptations for the Gordy (Motown) label which became a number one hit in 1965. Written and produced by the Miracles members Smokey Robinson and Ronald White, the song became the Temptations' first U.S. number-one single, and is today their signature song. Robinson's inspiration for writing this song was his wife, Miracles member Claudette Rogers Robinson. The song was featured on the Temptations album The Temptations Sing Smokey.
