The Witness Era: 3 Year Retrospective
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 มิ.ย. 2020
- Welcome back to Pop Dissected! In today's video, we're going to take a look back at Katy Perry's fourth studio record, "Witness".
We're going to look at the singles; "Chained to the Rhythm", "Bon Appetit" and "Swish Swish" to try and understand why there was a disconnect between Katy's message of 'purposeful pop' and her political intent with this era.
We'll additionally discuss the "Witness" album as well, and uncover why it actually is the 'purposeful' pop record Katy intended it to be.

Proud of all those Katycats who didn't turn their backs on Katy Perry during WITNESS era, and continued to support her no matter what.
Danthe Martinez I started to Stan her at Witness era 💀💀
witness was thye best album anyone else ????
I actually started being a fan fan after witness
Witness was iconic! Proud to be a katycat standing by her no matter what 😊
@@alishagrundy9921 It was the álbum that made me a fan fan
I really wish Katy to become popular & relevant like her teenage dream prism era again
Why is the rum gone? And her one of the boys era
Yea idk if she can have another big pop album.
Philip Moore I mean maybe if she went back to her old sound maybe she could have a confessions of the dance floor moment
Katykat 365 true I feel like if she was featured on a song it would do good like maybe if she sang the chorus on a song from a rapper
Me too! Those were the days
"We're all just looking for connection
Yeah, we all want to be seen
I'm looking for someone who speaks my language
Someone to ride this ride with me
Can I get a witness?"
Witness should've been a single!!!!!!!!
Yesss it was such an amazing song
Isn’t “Write this rhyme with me” ?
YES!!!! best song on the album
@@mxh2__42 ride this ride
I don't care what anybody says, the "Witness" album was not a bad album AT ALL.
SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
Witness is the only album of Katy Perry’s that I’ll listen to over and over again
Witness was Katy's Artpop Era, it was good but it flopped hard
Love how you won’t say it was a good album and use the term “not a bad album”
You’re right it was a horrible album 😊
The album was truly ahead of this time. It’s, slowly, getting more liked by people. It was her most transparent album since ootb and also showed some of her best work. The genre change to electro pop made it sound a lot better as well and showed her growth. It’s her most honest album since ootb too. She should of never sold it as “purposeful pop” as it made people think it was political, it wasn’t. It was her honest and it had a purpose of showing who she is and her growth. I hate how it’s badly portrayed and that many label it a “bad” album without listening. It proved how fake critics are too as they complained when Katy did bubblegum pop but hated her when she changed and wanted her old self back. Also, it invented “flopping”, if a person “flops” it is called their witness era but then again this era out performed some people’s recent peaks.
I agree. The same thing happened to Christina Aguilera's Bionic! People didn't vibe with it 10 years ago, but now they love and appreciate it!
It most definitely is not ahead of it's time
TEN SO10 by ahead of its time I mean it’s getting appreciated more by people. People didn’t listen to the album because they didn’t like Katy, now Katy has recovered her image it’s getting liked more. If the album was released in 2013 it would’ve been loved. If the album was released in 2019-20 it would of been loved.
@@simmy1251 True
roulette is basically every song now Everybody has been going to the 80s 90s vibes and everybody is trying that literally everybody so that tells you that she definitely WAS Ahead of her time
I literally just bought a witness today it came in the mail... and literally 10 minutes later you just posted this .. coincidence I think not
Where can one by it?
Shwetha R K I had bought it on the target app for 13.99, it came about two or three days after I ordered it. I definitely recommend ordering it it’s amazing!
“WITNESS“ WAS HER WAY OF REBELLION. MUSICALLY AND AS A HUMAN.
Luis Collado you didn’t INTO-IT-U-C
@Luis Collado what's your point?
"The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion". This was Witness's tour message, the motto of it.❤
@Luis Collado I wouldn’t called Witness super pop 🙄
*The fact that people are just now appreciating this album is frustrating, she did not deserve the hate only to become a trend* 😞❤
Yep :(
@@rkshwetha27
She deserved MUCH better, I hope the best for KP5 🤍
@@WingStorm YAS! I'M SOOO EXCITED FOR KP5!!!!
no one is talking about the album not even now lol
@@gabriel-nm7kh
Yes, because her music videos from Witness keep growing, especially Bon Appetit with almost 1B views, and a new album coming out means there gonna bring up her most recent ❤
Yes it's 3 am but this is about my fave Katy Perry album so I'm here awake.
Wide awake
Same
Sameee
@@sebastong939 Not losing any sleep
I think people really didn't like her new image, but there's a lot of issues like the performances were too bizarre and polarizing, her personality become way more ridiculized by media and some of her interviews and promo were a bit over the top, like Artpop by Lady Gaga or American life by Madonna.
But i agree that Katy was so bullied for being too political and now there are so many celebrities that are into politics and get a lot of praise for that, Katy was ahead of her time and i really wish that she return to her succesful times with her music.
PREACH
Political pop stars began in earnest with Bob Dylan 1961 since then the mainstream fans follow endless purposeful pop cool Brittania for eg
@Luciferus 'She' you mean 'them' funny you comment so clearly as if you know @katyperry personally because there is more than one of them it's showtime and they have earnt $1billion since 2007 maybe the problem with purposeful pop was it ended up a series of love songs talking to the blokes in Katheryn Hudson's tiny life but Chained to the Rhythm was spot on in line with recent events Witness changed tack after the Katy Perry show had creamed it with 3 top selling pure pop albums this was aimed at streaming which it is a record beater at, hardware CD's is a declining market but your right in saying her music isn't good enough as her last collection of singles proved 2 of them failing to chart
When a great singer's flop album is greater than most singer's masterpiece
I wonder what you think about her latest flop release 💀
@@Flopped69 It's not a flop hunny, it's called underrated
Rda 16 it IS a flop lmfaoo. it barely sold.
bec it didn't have promo
@@louieemborong785 She finally left her sh*tty record company. So glad for her. They don't promote her AT ALL.
Witness was Katy's Artpop Era, it was interesting but it flopped as Artpop too, so now she creates her "Joanne" Album with Daisy and Never Worn White same as Gaga
i dont necessarily see them similar, their paths are different. She is not going country genre with KP5
I kinda said the same
Not really, on listening to Artpop there’s a clear vision. I don’t really see that with Witness, at least not sonically.
But Artpop still sold well, and Gaga made a comeback.... right now idk if Katy will be able to do so. And I honestly don’t think she will sense promoting is almost impossible rn.
adamd664 Artpop sold well in pure sales era, witness was in streaming era. So they are not comparable, both are not flops but flopped for their standarts. Gagas comeback is lying on collabs i hope its the right decision to be hit artist again we will see in years
I've been thinking a lot in Katy and her "evolution" lately, specially since Chromatica is out. I think Lady Gaga also went through a transition from her pop persona to her true self (Stefania Germanotta), but she has received praise for it, unlike Katy. I think that maybe because the general public never felt truly comfortable with Gaga's controversial persona. With Katy Perry and her colorful cheerful personality they never had a problem, so when she separated from that and became more real, they didn't like it. That's my little reflection on your video🥰🥰 Thanks for doing it a keep on with the good work😘
I agree!
Jorgimar Gomez I also think it was easier for Gaga bc I feel the general public have always taken Gaga more seriously as a artist. A constant criticism Gaga received at the height of her popularity was from music critics who noted the separation between her controversial, artistic image and her dance pop catchy music and many critics felt Gaga was too talented to make the same basic electro-pop music as Katy, Rihanna and Kesha. Critics were welcomed and very happy to see herself be more serious to her music and showcases her talent as a vocalist, a songwriter and overall a musician as suppose to bring more serious with the visuals.
Honestly, lots of people had a problem with the mixed message. She released a single about being wokey wokey wokity woke woke woke... and then she goes right back to all she criticized in that single. She goes back to sexy sexy and goofy-oh-so-goofy! Shallow music she criticized in chained to the rhythm.
Witness was Katy’s most matured record, but people aren’t ready for this conversation yet
The visuals she served after CTTR were not it though and lacked her growth in creativity that she showed during the Prism era. Swish Swish is still THE worst music video I've seen from her simply because of those "look at me trying too hard to be funny" moments. It was embarrassing to watch.
Aaliyah Foster although your right about CTTR, Katy actually chose that aesthetic to show how blind we are that we can’t even notice the problems in our own country because we’re Chained to the rhythm but unfortunately i think you’re right about the Swish swish video, it was a waste for such a good song, the video it’s just cringe and straight up non sense to be honest
@@cesardavidmarquezmurillo5365 The Hey Hey Hey choice didn't help either. It's one of my least favorites from Witness with its super clunky lyric arrangement and some stuff carried over from that Swish Swish abomination. I did like Save As Draft and the album song though.
Aaliyah Foster i actually did liked Hey hey hey, not that much but i did liked it, i love Swish swish, it’s one of those songs that you have to listen a few times until you actually start liking it but again, the video instead of helping the song, it just ruined it
Exactly! Mature record definitely but people just dragged her bcuz' of her new look and s***. Oh but listen to those new abominations right now including 6ine9ine "OMG that's LIT" hahaha Witness it's different, futuristic, funny, etc (But yeah, I agree about the Hey Hey Hey music video and so Swish Swish...)
Lets be real: you are a Katy Stan. But I love it and subscribe to it!
I don’t care what people say about Bon Appetit.. It’s a damn bop! 💙
The instrumental itself is a bop. Its Katy and her cornball lyricism and delivery that make it questionable. Same for Swish Swish.
Imagine if the right singles were chosen for witness...... Just.... Imagine..
Ritesh Ram Imagine if it was a good album
@@prometheustv6558 it is the best album in the world
CTTR as lead
Roulette as single
Miss you more(promo single)
Witness as single with Witness album release day
Swish swish as single
Tsunami or Power as last promo single with Music video (like Hey hey hey)
End of the succesfull era.
@@hakansarikci6399 its only ur opinion but anyways
kanombueang Its not my opinion, its fact. I am an album listener and this one is the most smartest album ever ive ever seen

@@77blaidddrwg Yeh wish they had said this too! Nevertheless that part was so cool!
Witness title track is honestly a masterpiece. A pure ART.
Witness had a few good songs but overall I could understand why it underperformed. The album didn’t make the purpose for what it was promoted. Also 2017 was the first year of hip hop beginning to takeover the charts in fact that was the year the Niselen Soundscan named hip hop the most popular genre in the United States, surpassing rock n roll so ultimate bad timing. I still love chained to the rhythm and hey hey hey great underrated tracks.
Agree but somehow Reputation did really good
@@pilardavg People were wondering what Taylor was doing during her hiatus though and when she cleared out her social media. It added mystery to the reputation era with people thinking she actually d-worded or was in a bad mental space or something, and was something that grew deeper than just music.
@@aaliyahfoster2705 that makes sense, 2017 was a transition year for music, but Taylor's persona was interesting enough to draw attention to her music!
Pilar Dávila well reputation was released a year after the Kim kardashian and Calvin Harris situation that blew up on social media where everyone wanted her career be over. Taylor spent a whole year quiet on social media in addition reputation incorporated trap music influences in a lot of songs so it benefited to be part a thriving genre. Also Taylor has always been an album based artist where as Katy has always been a single artist majority of their biggest money or most accomplished achievements come from what they are based. That’s why Katy Perry biggest achievements comes from singles based and Taylor biggest achievements comes albums based
It was a mistake for her to come off the heels of the election promising a political album. Though she would later on reiterate that it wasn't the intention. The first single, initial interviews and performances gave the public a different perception
Witness seems like an album Todd In The Shadows will do a Trainwreckords on.
I’m sad that she doesn’t have a Grammy and will probably won’t get one, i hope she keeps putting music no matter what✨💓 witness is such a touching album for me💓
I remember Katy Perry having the song “wide awake” as a single and having the single cover look like The “rise” cover. 😂😩 anyone else?
Unpopular opinion maybe- Rise shoulda been on the album at least as a bonus track
Rise is one of her best songs to date. It reserved to be in the album
@@rakata1987 Plus it fits with a lot of the themes of Witness and would fit in with the record
I mean, sure I guess witness was “a flop” for Katy Perry standards, but I think it’s one of my fav Katy Perry albums, and all her singles have a lot of views on TH-cam, and I remember hearing swish swish, bone appetite, and chained to the rhythm all over the radio.
I think the pressure to be so woke all the time influenced so much of this album. she went from the controversy around the AMA performance of Unconditionally and the video for This is How We Do to being torn apart when she tried to change and "play by the rules".
Iconicccc album. I hope her next one hits Teenage Dream levels 💅
Edit: as much as I agree pop stars need to be aware, etc. The real icons spent much of their time not being self conscious and focusing on the main event: entertaining, moving and inspiring us all.
It surprises me how much I needed this retrospective! In particular I found illuminating the things that you said at the end about the tracks and how they relate to the concept of liberation. I'm definitely going to listen to witness again, even though I will never forgive Katy for not releasing Witness as the first single and Roulette. Thank you very much, your work is really appreciated!
I loved WITNESS since the release, I will say it could’ve been better but I really enjoyed it; better single choices and promo would’ve really helped the album. I went to the WITNESS tour and it was amazing
Thank you for making this ❤❤
I could literally go on for days talking about how good this era was and all of the things that should’ve been changed about both the album itself and how it was promoted. This will forever and always be the most under appreciated album I have experienced in my lifetime.
I was going to do math homework that I’ve been putting off but then you uploaded...
...People be so dang annoying. Katy Perry deserves justice. KP5 needs to be #1!
Rn I really don’t think thats gonna happen........
Yep
14:46 That Daisies lyrics reference booooy 😉
"The 45th president" Oh so we making his name a slur now good to know totally down
Bon appetit is almost a billion hahaha thinking that it was a flop ._.
Looking back now, I think that Katy Perry’s Witness album was misunderstood and underrated
I think Witness is a fantastic album!! Some really great tracks. The tour was also fantastic. Deja vu, roulette, witness, hey hey hey, power, cttr, bon appetit, swish swish, bigger than me, pendulum!
So happy for my fellow katycats who didn't leave her during the witness era🥺❤
My two cents...
Witness is fucking underrated.
I am a new Katycat and I love her images, she keeps developing herself and inventing great ideas.
Ive started reading the lyrics most of the time before listening to a full album and Im so shookt of Katy's writing ability. And I loved it when she goes double entendre 🤣 like Tsunami oh my god. Listening to that song is hot.
Plus chained to the rhythm is a genius song. Its also my theme song for the Philippine govt where Im living 😂 its so woke..
Bon appettit is a lit song. Love that one and the music video ❤️
Into me you see, is the song she made for Orlando Bloom, reading the lyrics of "you're like a sailor with a heart that anchored me" mind you, he's the Will Turner in the Pirates of the Carribean. I can go on and on but the one reading this must read then listen to Katy's lyrics/music.
I knew I was 12 yrs late but I am so glad I did. Plus she's a great human too. ♥️♥️♥️ God bless everyone!
OMG SAMEEE!!!!! I agree with every single line!
💖💖💖
A Filipino KatyCat, indeed!
It's feels like artpop, hated at the beginning and loved now
*artpop
I love how there’s someone who made a content to defend Katy Perry’s ideas and Witness
What you all said was completely logical and thoughtful
Well done and thank you
You’re so good at writing about pop music! You deserve millions of subs, for real
Witness has her most personal and relatable lyrics. While Prism is still my favorite for its empowerment and positive messages, I like Witness for its darker subjects on depression and loneliness, while still being about empowerment and liberation.
Me too!
I feel like the TH-cam live stream promo gimmick also made things much worse... I remember watching people's reaction to it and it really made people turn on her.
Huh?
Roulette deserved to be the 2nd single & Act My Age the 3rd
YES ROULETTE but I also wanted Pandeleum as a single too
It's actually her best album, I love it so much I became a katycat during witness and I don't regret it at all I love all her albums
me too bon apetite made me a fan and the album tracks like mind maze and bigger than me were my actual jam..even now!!
I loved the video especially from 13:43!
We need that Hailee Steinfield video king !
I REALLY LOVED THIS VIDEO
I don't get why people call this album a flop, I literally heard her 3 singles from this album EVERYWHERE. Especially Swish Swish during summer 2017.
actually i heard swish swish once on the radio and the other 2 for only a month.
@@paintingdreams290 who listens to radio though? Radio Airplay has become irrelivant in terms of what can be labeled as a succes story. These 3 songs were in clubs, pride parades, spotify playlists. Swish Swish was a cultural hype with the backpack kid and his dance. At least here in Europe.
@@justafidemyself I was on vacation in Milan in summer 2017 and I heard Bon Appetit being played all the time on taxi's radios and in a couple of shops that were playing Italy's hottest hits.
Your speech 100/100
I applaud 👏👏👏👏
It’s her rebellious record for sure, this is an interesting look back at it, thank you for this video, and keep up the good work!
Brother how do you write such a thing...I'm not talking about the dissection...your writing is amaaaaazing ...can you share about your writing process?
Well said. Preach it. You're a gift
I learn so much
I remember when the Album came out. I couldn’t wait to listen and as soon as I did I was hooked for MONTHS
Me and my best friend bonded so much over this album. We had our own inside jokes about the songs and the day of the release we bought it together and it’s our little CD baby that we share custody over. We may not love everything about it but it’s definitely not a bad album and it’s one we enjoy together. We’re so proud of Witness and are always going to vibe with her. This sounds so stupid writing it out to a bunch of random people on the internet, but I thought I’d share. Katy went somewhere new and shouldn’t be ashamed of that. I went back and listened again today to the songs I hardly ever went back to and I’m surprised at how much of this album I truly enjoy.
So well written! You’re so talented
If she lead with swish swish surrounding the then-ongoing feud with taylor, itll definitely go #1 just like how taylor did with LWYMMD referencing kanye west.
Tbh I started to be a fan fan of Katy and actually waiting for more when witness came out
👁✨Witness was such a good and deep album.. her lyrics are so smart and beautiful.✨
I swear, it feels like only yesterday she dropped Witness. This album is timeless!
Witness track is so deep and it kinda reflects the current situation with Katy and the general Public. If she lost it all today would they stay? And the way at the time she was barely talking with Orlando Bloom. Witness is Katy’s most personal album and a cry of Katheryn Hudson trying to come out
I like this record and the single choice. I'm not that a fan of collaborating with homophobes but I like Witness. My favourite song is "into me you see"
That outro was amazing
I love that you talked about CTTR and how ppl didn't like it was catchy and dancey yet dark lyrics. Idk why ppl were pisssd off of it but still love Outkast's Hey Ya. Which does the same thing
Katy's Witness & Gaga's ARTPOP both flopped just because people expected similar sounding records to their well known previous works.
But being truly authentic to yourself and being brave enough to go opposite direction society expects you to go - is what really shows person'a growth and strength
Art and Creativity really do not have a criteria to be judged on and that's why i really appreciate both albums
Witness is masterpiece
Oooooooooooooooooooooo do lady Gaga’s “Chromatica” next. Just talk about it lmao. My fav album
I had no recollection of watching or commenting on this video and was really confused until I realized we just have the same profile picture
Alan YaKnow LMAOOOOO OMGGGGGGG what a coincidence
Jose Palomera I know XD imagine if more people with the naruto derp face join in and we become an army!
Every single track in Witness hit me like a truck because I felt the authenticity and imo right now Witness is her best and most important album
Can I get a witness...to the dirty hand the public gave this album? Its a bop factory! Roll on KP5!
1. Katy was politically active but not politically correct during this era, her songs were purposeful but fell flat to convey the message to the general public.
2. The songs were good and were different from what the music scene was like during tht time, so people didn't hop onto it.
3. People mistook "purposeful" for "impactful".
4. I really like this record because atlast some celebrity used their enormous platform to shed some light on important issues and start a discussion.
5. I think it is one of the most iconic records because it showed that creativity has no limits and liberation can mean different things for different people.
Witness is the Artpop of Lady Gaga
Blaze Fireball but Artpop was actually a good seller though.
*I believe Witness was Katys attempt at being serious and experimental, but at the same time she tried to stay true to her bubbly pop-image. She tried to find a middle road but in the end it just became confusing.*
Katy cat for life
Omg this video is everything what I think about Witness 😭🥺
True!
Who cares about the general public? Katheryn knows she has us KatyCats and we will always be there for her ❤ proud of us all, especially those who stuck during Witness. Can't wait for KP5.
love her so much
I feel awful for Katy. Personally, I’m not as huge of a fan of witness as I am for teenage dream and prism but Katy did NOT deserve the hate she got in this era. It’s crazy how she was at the top of the world and then everyone turned their backs on her and her career has never been the same since :(
Loved this album!!! Let’s make the KP5 era start off strong with Daisies topping the charts!!!
but according to its chart performance, it is so far away from being #1 and it's likely to go down
It’s slowly rising. I think it will be a longevity type track.
@@calebleggett5504 Yeah true it went from #79 to #74. We should let it touch #1! We can do it KatyCats! Her lead singles have always been in the top 4!
I always love your opinion/commentary on things. This era was definitely affected by other artists surging in popularity. And I hate it, but I really think Katy having such short hair hurt her image too. People love teenage dream Katy and her look for this album cycle was definitely a departure. I loved it but I do see how it could have been viewed as jumping on Mileys coattails.
Bring this vibe back rn
I think that with this album she was receiving a lot of hate and people were boycotting her because of her relationship with Taylor Swift. I mean you have to think about how she was doing so well then after bad blood, her success tanked.
I adore that era since release.
Love ur channel and analysis into music
Thank you for your perceptive analysis. I would appreciate a fresh analysis on Bon Appetit's explosive popularity in streaming - over a billion views in 3 1/2 years. That's impressive!!! At this pace Bon Appetit could become the 3rd most viewed video of Katy's within 2-3 years. What does this say about the album long-term? My view is that Witness could have a long-term popularity it did not achieve when released. It has more depth than much of her other work. Sometimes this happens with different kinds of works in music and movies. I started listening to Katy in 2019 and really like Witness. I do think Roulette should have been the second single and believe it could have been a top ten hit. If it did that might have changed some views of the album with 2 top ten singles. But I am no expert on these matters, just a fan. Thanks. :)
I love witness (the song) and chained to the rhythm🎶
I'm proud to have appreciated this masterpiece of an album from day 1 when it was released
I'm crying..
Waiting for your Chromatica Video!!❤️
My fav album from her
A witness to liberate you from pain and depression
I think that the witness era will have a similar situation to xtina’s bionic, an experimental album that didn’t get recognition upon it’s release but years later it is referred to as being “ahead of it’s time”
True!
One of my fave albums of all time.
Chained to the Rhythm is my all-time favorite from her witness album
Save as draft is literally my favorite song.
I was never a huge Katy fan (who doesnt love Teenage Dream tho) but I personally thought this was one of her best albums. I was surprised to seeing the bad reviews. It was an amazing record.
I love witness 😍 my favorite album of hers
Witness Era was the craziest pop eras of all time. That's when I truly saw her as an idol & loved her. I always look up to her. I'm a witness forever.
Totally worth every second of the watch♥️♥️♥️. Tysm for this.
Didn't expect dis 2 pop up in my sub box
When someone finally understands the WITNESS era. Thank you ♥️
