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:
Kiss Me, Kate Kiss Me, Kate was Porter's response to Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma! and other integrated musicals; it was the first show he wrote in which the music and lyrics were firmly connected to the script. The musical premiered in 1948 and proved to be Porter's only show to run for more than 1,000 performances on Broadway.[1][2] In 1949, it won the first Tony Award for Best Musical.
