Katy Perry has been a symbol of pop culture for over a decade now, and she continues to amaze her fans with her incredible music. Her latest album, “Smile,” which is set to release on August 28, promises to be another chart-topping hit. But before we dive into her latest creation, let’s take a look back at one of her most iconic songs, “Roar.”
“Roar” was first released in 2013 as part of her album “PRISM.” The song’s lyrics empower listeners to overcome their fears and take control of their lives. Katy sings about how she used to bite her tongue and hold her breath, but then she realized that she had a choice. She decided to stand up for herself and let her voice be heard.
The music video for “Roar” is a visual masterpiece that perfectly captures the song’s message. It shows Katy surviving in the jungle after being stranded there following a plane crash. She faces challenges like poisonous plants, wild animals, and even quicksand. However, she doesn’t give up and decides to fight back against her surroundings. Eventually, she emerges victorious, just like in the song’s chorus: “I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the fire, ’cause I am a champion, and you’re gonna hear me roar.”
The song became an instant hit and topped charts worldwide. It won several awards, including the MTV Video Music Award for Best Female Video and the People’s Choice Award for Favorite Song. The song’s inspiring lyrics and upbeat melody made it a fan favorite, and it remains a classic even today.
As we eagerly wait for Katy’s new album “Smile,” which promises to be a celebration of resilience and joy, we can’t help but look back at “Roar” with fond nostalgia. It’s a song that empowers people to face their fears and conquer whatever challenges come their way. So let’s listen to it once again and roar like Katy does: “Louder, louder than a lion ’cause I am a champion, and you’re gonna hear me roar.”
