latest song from Katy Perry - Wide Awake
as shown above, it's the trailer for the official MV of Wide Awake
well, it does portraits lil' bit of Avril's MV - Alice
but it is fresh to see something new in Katy Perry
though she did published album under her name Katy Hudson, well, I barely knew her
to be truth, yea, I knew Katy Perry from the song 'Teenage Dream', 2 years ago
then the song ' Fireworks', 'Last Friday Night TGIF', 'ET', 'The One That Got Away', 'Part of Me'
these are the some of my favourite songs of her
and recently she's out with this song - Wide Awake
barely knew much about previous albums,
apparently this song is the complete confection of Teenage Dream
(erm... means of??? end of Teenage Dream era, and next album will be another confection?)
this trailer was out 2 weeks ago
showing from album 'Teenage Dream' - 'Part of Me'
and spoiler from Wide Awake lastly...
anyway, I watched another MV using FB timeline feature last month
showed the progress of Katy Perry starts from 'Teenage Dream' as well
(as below)
somehow the lyrics kinda reflects on herself
personally, I do thinks she did worked hard to get to the spot she had right now
Lyric :
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was in the dark
I was falling hard
With an open heart
I'm wide awake
How did I read the stars so wrong
I'm wide awake
And now it's clear to me
That everything you see
Ain't always what it seems
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was dreaming for so long
[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
Till I woke up on
On the concrete
[Chorus]
Falling from cloud 9
Crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight
(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9
I'm wide awake
Not losing any sleep
I picked up every piece
And landed on my feet
I'm wide awake
Need nothing to complete myself – nooohooo
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I am born again
Outta the lion's den
I don't have to pretend
And it's too late
The story's over now, the end
[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
Till I woke up on
On the concrete
[Chorus]
Falling from cloud 9
Crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting go)
I'm falling from cloud 9
Thunder rumbling (I'm wide awake)
Castles crumbling
(I'm wide awake)
I am trying to hold on
(I'm wide awake)
God knows that I tried
Seeing
the bright side
(I'm wide awake)
But
I'm not blind anymore...
I'm
wide awake
I'm
wide awake
[Chorus]
Yeah,
I'm falling from cloud 9
Crashing
from the high
You
know I'm letting go tonight
I’m
falling from cloud 9
I’m
wide awake
I’m
wide awake
I’m
wide awake
I’m
wide awake
I’m
wide awake
and here's the official MV
it's kinda confusing at 1st
but on the second watch (well, I did my own interpretation)
[she looked back on how she became a singer,
she was imprisoned in a castle where is dark,
try to find way out,
(watch out for the crawling caterpillar)
and she's following the direction of stars
then she found something (a strawberry) and ate it
which give her a power to release herself from the castle
and a girl appears, and felt that she have a special connection with her
she and the girl walks into another closed path
with a lot of mirrors
and the last one seems to fascinating her
(paparazzi shooting photos of her)
she tried to use the power to break over the mirror
and she didn't realize the path was cracking behind, though the girl try to warn her
(thinks she fall down and lost the power)
and when the girl try to release her, 2 guards was standing on the way
she use her power to chase away the guards and apparently Katy got the power back
Katy and the girl at last were freed
and met prince charming (which is crossing fingers in the MV - might be a playboy prince?)
but Katy can see through him and gave him a punch
and they walked over the light, to another world
the girl (Kathryn - which is Katy Perry real name) put something in Katy's hand and waved goodbye
and when Katy become famous, outta her palm is a butterfly
(bet that the butterfly is from the caterpillar in the castle)]
Lolz!
Have a better interpretation?
Enjoy while wide awake! I am :p
