On the Prismatic World Tour, a few seconds of an instrumental version of this song is played right before her acoustic set. Best surprise. Love this song.
Haha it was spiritual....but i wish they should have played the song not the instrumental. I love that song. She is not even performing that in the tour.
YES!!! I WAS JUST WATCHING PWT ON TH-cam SINCE I SAW IT LIVE IN JUNE AND OH MY GOD I DIDN'T REALIZE IT WAS SIMPLE UNTIL I WATCH IT AND NOW I HAD TO GO DIGGING JUST TO MAKE SURE IT WAS. IM LITERALLY CRYING SO HARD RIGHT NOW
Katrina Neve kyle edward Haha it was definitely simple at my show! I was at the first show on the American leg of the tour. Maybe she changed it later.
I know that she evolved as an artist and became the biggest pop star on the planet. But I can't help but come back to this song and appreciate it for when she was just starting out.
@Thaitea Student shes got up to 40 million spotify streams and still counting, a networth of over $330 million and several academy awards PLUS nominations. What do you have?
Every month i always came back here to hear this song. I really liked it, it just popped into my head once in a while and i go here to listen to it over and over again. Anyone who read this, Where are you from, how old are you, what you do for living, how's life been treating you?
just type in "katy perry unreleased songs" and you'll find loads of songs like this. my favs are Long shot, Bullet, Diamond, Time's up and some more :p
Coming back here before she released Daisies on May 15th... Just want to go back to where she all started... I still like her old songs. Very pure and gives so much nostalgia. But i like her also now.
I love this original superstar, who a far from drama, and gossip. I love her simple life, her simple in everything. She's like true artist! Those moments is precious.
Godd this was 7 years ago!! Brilliant song, very beautiful and nostalgic. Katy Perry is a true artist. She didn’t have any money or fame during this video, and I’m proud of how far she has come. She still has this spunk and humble groundedness in her attitude today despite being a global superstar.
@Luciferish Tingz well, she was indeed poor even as a child. she has crocked teeth because her family wouldn't be able to pay a dentist, but yeah, she worked her ass off to be where she is right now, it wasn't an easy journey and she achieved it all by her own.
oh how i wish we could somehow go back to this kind of simple music style and that she would re-release her 2001 album and all of her unreleased material from the 2000s in a compilation or something
I just love this video, it fits very well with the song. Her dress, her umbrella, her hair, and her makeup are oh so simple, whereas the city where she roams is one of the busiest cities in the world. I simply (no pun intended) love the contrast between Katy Perry and Tokyo.
I remember finding out about Katy when I Kissed A Girl was a huge hit back in June 2008...I think I was finishing 5th grade and about to enter middle school but I did some internet digging and found all these unreleased songs of hers. I had this on repeat all year during that year and had no idea what these lyrics actually meant but I remember the entire song itself and the chorus being SO special to me...
4 super hit albums . 9 #1 singles.. being the most streamed FEMALE solo artist in TH-cam history nd one of the biggest selling female act but still this song has a special place in my heart❤
@@Inferno-fpshuh you haven't seen katys TH-cam streams ..... Roar has 3.8 billion on TH-cam, dark horses has 3.6 billion on TH-cam go nd look it upp ...Roar is the most streamed female music video ever on TH-cam history go nd look upp
In her movie "part of me" it said that a famous alanis morissette song inspired her to sing it was the first song that wasnt christian that she had ever heard thats probably why
She should make more songs like this! It sounds so good! The harmonies are excellent. And her pronouciation is brilliant! They should release more songs like this! And she should make a movie, not like Part of Me movie but like a actual movie where they have a story and scenario. It would have lots of viewers!
I love this song. So SIMPLE and so is the Video. Still a young and inspiring young singer that just is so pure and GOOD. It is, for me, my favorite Katy perry song, for being so true and not overly commercialize. She is a real talented artist. lets appreciate her for what she creates. Cheers Slinky
I used to have this downloaded on my phone around 10 years ago, i miss this times! Katy i still love your songs, thx for being my favorite artist at teenage years ❤
it's so amazing to see how much katy has grown up. from "simple" to "the one that got away." it's incredible how successful this woman is. i love the 2006 katy all the way to 2012 and more. forever a katycat
i can only imagine Katy Perry crying if she watches this video again , like look at where she is right now. shes on forbes most powerful celebrity and a millionare too, 9 number #1 hit singles and still working. so proud of her :*
For some extreme coincidence I got to know this song when I was 12 years old in 2008 and it introduced me to Katy Perry. After listening a lot to OOTB and TD I was really disapointed at the direction she decided her carreer to go. I understand artists change their style over time an being successful and getting rich is important, but... I miss this so much! Anyway, we'll always have it to remind us of this amazing artist, who's one of the few I've had an opportunity to watch live almost 10 years ago. Absolutely worth it!
It took me awhile to connect the dots and realize Katy Perry was the one who did this one. And then when I did, it was like old katy and new are very different.
ya'll need to stfu saying "omg i miss the old katy" "i want the old katy she's better" tHERES NO OLD KATY, KATY IS STILL KATY AND SHE WILL ALWAYS JUST BE KATY it is all so simple, just deal with it
yade exactly like her sound always changed this is nothing like the I kissed a girl era or the roar era an artist is always evolving and the true fans evolve with them xx
Her old vocal production actually compliments her voice much better than her most recent ones.
Yepp, I agree. This feels so much more raw and not as processed.
@@XDanW91that’s the low quality production
@@nnnn-sc2im u got the original?
th-cam.com/video/hxPc5RFVYV4/w-d-xo.html
Katy definity has a rock voice. Which is why she stood out in the bubblegum pop genre.
3 hit albums and 9 worldwide number one singles further, and still this is my favorite song.
Mine too, and the box
same
Yeah
Mine too!!!
It's just his best song.
This may be one of the most underrated songs ever in the music industry
Seriously
Came here after her announcement that she's pregnant... time flies... im so proud of her ❤
esse video tem quase 20 anos que foi postado
They grow up so fast 💜
yassss
On the Prismatic World Tour, a few seconds of an instrumental version of this song is played right before her acoustic set. Best surprise. Love this song.
It's not simple, it's Spiritual, from PRISM.
Haha it was spiritual....but i wish they should have played the song not the instrumental. I love that song. She is not even performing that in the tour.

Japanese was like: who the hell is this crazy lady
Lmfaoo
pls lmao
Few years later.... THE Katy Perry!
i would love if she could bring back this old style of music 😭
I wish she were still singing songs like that.
***** This was her grunge stage
She was like
23 omfg
+Slow-MOE blame the industry for that
The music industry is a shame! In my opinion this grunge vibe fits her Voice better than pop she does now
still one of her most beautiful songs after 13 years
this song released in 2005 though
@@mosalahisaking3525i thought it was 2007
who guessed this girl will rule the pop world
You were right
I did
@Thaitea Student Still she’s worldwide known and forever iconic
@Thaitea Student she's still KATY PERRY, like, this name have power in the industry if u don't think this u are stupid and dumb!!
@Thaitea Student shes got up to 40 million spotify streams and still counting, a networth of over $330 million and several academy awards PLUS nominations. What do you have?

Anyone who read this, Where are you from, how old are you, what you do for living, how's life been treating you?
I’m from Oklahoma but my parents are from Poland but I live in Copenhagen I’m an med school dropout life is bad
I’m 23 and a burlesque dancer who found this because of a Wesley Willis song.
Moin! I'm from Germany and 21 y my life could be better but it's ok :)
This song has a nostalgia vibe and I'm here for it
Im 24, I live in México and I love this song since I was 12 years old
If Katy still made music like this I would be obsessed. Does anyone know any other songs of hers with a similar vibe to this.
Mia Stevans bullet and damn
just type in "katy perry unreleased songs" and you'll find loads of songs like this. my favs are Long shot, Bullet, Diamond, Time's up and some more :p
The Box
All of them before the Teenage Dream album...
Andy Fennell not only one of the boys but she also has an unreleased album with the band she was in known as Katy Perry and the matrix.And many more.
Coming back here before she released Daisies on May 15th... Just want to go back to where she all started... I still like her old songs. Very pure and gives so much nostalgia. But i like her also now.
True
This is the real Katy.
I still love her but I've never seen her like that since her career started.
That is what happens when they get a hold of them
@@xx_mysticwolf_xx1492 no that’s what happens when you get a budget. also when it’s no longer 2005 and this type of music is out!!
@@Paris-jv8xo lol right it not being 2005 is your argument you got me deep with that
@@xx_mysticwolf_xx1492 girl that it nobody was trying to sound like Atlantis morriset in 2010!!
People change. Tbh she still seems pretty cool to me.
Missed 2008 Katy Perry and early 2000s :( Who is here April 2020?!
I love this original superstar, who a far from drama, and gossip. I love her simple life, her simple in everything. She's like true artist! Those moments is precious.
I'm so proud of where Katy's right now. And one thing that I thinks perfect in her it's the fact that she never forgot the start!

kyle edward shut up
Rekt.
Sam actually it’s from 2003
alexe. It’s from a movie that released in 2005
Ash Bacon i’ve heard it’s from 2003
She used to be so emo and sing from the heart.... I wish she was still like this 😭❤️
this is my favourite katy perry song of all time.
i rememeber this so well.
i much prefer all her old stuff, its so true, and so easy to relate to :)
I love how simple she was :(
Hassan Mohammed dislike
she was poor
@Luciferish Tingz she didn't have money to not even pay her own dinner, so she would call to her brother to ask for money, but he wouldn't have.
@Luciferish Tingz

@@marcosa.6943 actually she lived in a very religious household
This is such an underrated song. I love it.
Been listening to this since it came out, the best song she ever written.
I was looking for famous Wesley Willis fans, and this is what I got. Katy Perry, you ain't bad.
I wonder if she knows about Alternative Tentacles, Jello Biafra, et al?
Love her. She gives starting artists so much hope. ♡
old katy is very bautiful 😍😍😍😍
+Fajar Eko Kurnianto she is so beautiful
stand up 4 girls yes she is. she is amazing :D
She still is
True
Young katy ;)
Been listening to this song for almost 12 years 🥹 still my fave katy perry song

Thumbs up for watching this is 2015♥
Is it that late? Damn, I gotta get off now!
emmy em 2017
emmy em in 2017
oh how i wish we could somehow go back to this kind of simple music style
and that she would re-release her 2001 album and all of her unreleased material from the 2000s in a compilation or something

She should bring this style back
Out of nowhere I miss this song
PS who else is here watching this on 2021?

@@Inferno-fpsget ur facts right
This feels so Alanis Morissette
seems like the cure to me!
Alanis Morisette was actually a big inspiration for Katy when she started to make music :)
makes sense, it was written and produced by Glen Ballard, a predator, who also discovered Alanis.
In her movie "part of me" it said that a famous alanis morissette song inspired her to sing it was the first song that wasnt christian that she had ever heard thats probably why
One of her inspirations that’s why
I miss this Katy! But I still love heeeer!
She should make more songs like this! It sounds so good! The harmonies are excellent. And her pronouciation is brilliant! They should release more songs like this! And she should make a movie, not like Part of Me movie but like a actual movie where they have a story and scenario. It would have lots of viewers!
"all i want is a friend" lmfao
2013 when I first heard this song and I would play it almost everyday. One of my favorites from Katy, very nostalgic for me.
Her earlier work was so good
It is hard to believe that this is a real Katy Perry song but, as from as I've been able to tell from research, it is a real Katy Perry song.
I love this song. So SIMPLE and so is the Video. Still a young and inspiring young singer that just is so pure and GOOD. It is, for me, my favorite Katy perry song, for being so true and not overly commercialize. She is a real talented artist. lets appreciate her for what she creates.
Cheers

I MISS KATHERYN HUDSON :'(
Pretty sure she was billed as Katy Perry on the soundtrack...
monica barreda wtf
Scott Sweeney Credits roll in
2005: Katy Perry? What kind of garage singer is that?
2015: Omg Katy Perry was in this movie?
She actually went by Katheryn Perry at the time. It was somewhere between Katy Hudson and Katy Perry.
@@nahuelrojas6846 that's Katy Perry's name in real life not her stage name and Monica was saying she misses Katy Perrys old music

It didn't even hit me that she was in Japan until I saw the clear umbrella
2023 e estamos aqui escutando uma das melhores dela ❤
Did you just hear it on BBC radio?
I didn't know this song existed until now 😂
14 years later n this song still means so much to me
that line at the end melted my heart
After living single for 30 years, and never having any kids.. When I see young Katy Perry… I see the daughter I never had.
