Katy Perry - Electric Feel (MGMT Cover)

Katy Perry

[@zeroprmscs]

this reminds me when Katy had that little indie feeling

[@RelyaVoy]

+zeroprmscs I know what you mean. There was one song where she sparked with that small, small indie feeling on her latest record, it's called "Spiritual". Doesn't sound that mainstream at all

[@irvindorsey8586]

+Agent Tea si

[@LuisAngelMayIX]

jajaja, I think so.

[@tahillia]

I'm not a Katy fan but I do love this cover. I remember reading an interview with her from awhile ago where she said she wants to write really different stuff but she also wants to please her fans, so she keeps writing and releasing pop. She said back then that her next album would have a more indie/folk feel, but I doubt it. She still wants that huge payday she gets from releasing crap like Roar and California Girls. Who knows, though? Maybe she will surprise us.

[@kobcritic624]

She definitely ended up shocking us By becoming bad at making pop music

[@tsad3reasons]

As both an avid MGMT and Katy Perry fan, I concur. This is the best Katy has really ever sounded, plus the song sounds beautiful acoustic. It is not a comparison of who sang it better, but it is a cover of a different vibe to the song.

[@dodgersdoon1130]

my god her voice is angelic

[@ap7diamonds]

i wish she sang more in this style, shes an amazing singer and i think this genre suits her so much better

[@darko714]

Yes 100 times yes!

[@kalef1234]

wow never knew she did a cover of this haha

[@InebriatedEscapist]

It's really nice to see connections and bridges between genres through stuff like this. Shows how in the end, it's just all music.

[@tablasaurus96]

This is so... great. Way better than I expected. I wish she sang this type of music on a regular basis.

[@darko714]

Everyone does.

[@fita9544]

OMG this cover is so good!! I used to listen to this A LOT when I was on high school in 2011, and I just got back listening now and wow.

[@KooPooky]

Wow this cover by Katy is amazing! Her voice was made to sing like this 🔥

[@fita9544]

Have you hear Brick by brick and another song I cant remember the name now - both covers released by her in her mtv unplugged album? Its worth listening and it has those vocals you mentioned.

[@NathanHautain]

​@@fita9544 Hackensack, another cover. She really sounded good during that One Of The Boys-Unplugged era, this pop-rock vibe suited her perfectly. Teenage Dream and Prism were decent but after that she lost the plot completely

[@GhastlyWarcon]

So much salt in these comments... I don't really fancy her regular music but this is by no means a bad cover and she has a darn good voice. Hating someone just for the sake of hating is so unreasonably stupid. Pointless gripes.

[@isabellaj8200]

Almost thought you said "pointless grapes"

[@GhastlyWarcon]

Isabella Jungic Well grapes are pointless too, damned pointless, sweet and juicy... delicious grapes.

[@isabellaj8200]

Ghastly Do not underestimate the grapes.

[@paulshaffer1541]

Ghastly crapes son.

[@haroequine2351]

means you have bad taste

[@floratubiana]

she's flawless, this hits me like soft nostalgia, love her sm

[@Tomas9K]

I go back to this cover at least once a year since it came out.

[@andersonhyatt5770]

This is one of the best covers in the world 🌍☺️

[@sailormood]

I can’t deal with katy’s current music, but this cover from 8 years ago now is still one of my favorites

[@mynameisdriftwood94]

Katy has a FANTASTIC voice. She just never uses it to its full potential on her albums. Listen to her Mtv unplugged. It's flawless. If only she always sang like that...

[@prelithic]

clean vocals with a little bit of sultry smoke and she didn't change the pronouns :'))) bless. the world needs more songs about women performed by women

[@allencostello1224]

I dunno about the gay stuff, but its a darn good cover

[@jackstenskie5796]

***** Katy Perry sang "I kissed a girl" ..... just the same thing really

[@viccon4639]

Mes Dames why would she have changed the pronouns? She kissed a girl and she liked it.

[@deRegilUribe]

This song is not about women haha

[@HazeAroundtheWorld]

+Ana Fernanda de Regil Uribe You're like a child who wanders into a movie halfway through and struggles to understand it

[@VMilky-dt6kr]

She is an amazing person. I cant believe she did a cover of a song from such an under-rated band. I love MGMT and Katy Perry and this cover is amazing.

[@f0sterthepe0ple]

MGMT has been one of my favorite bands for like two years and always will be. The original is better in my opinion, but this cover is flawless. Probably comes second best.

[@Igotdapipes]

Love them!!! The original is definitely the best! Check out Preston Pohl’s version.

[@leandrooalmeida11]

HER VOICE IN ACOUSTIC IS WONDERFUL

[@philcrooks3144]

Best cover of this song, no 25 minute into, no bullshit loop pedals, good voice blah blah blah

[@ASMR_Orangely]

*THE BEST COVER EVER!* 🧡

[@taylortuuny]

Why did her eye brows make me feel nostalgic? 😂

[@joelf3062]

Forgot about this song I love it!! Katy Perry is such a beautiful soul

[@e94burns]

This is amazing. Yes Katy. This is perfect for her voice.

[@Music_Lover0612]

Sometimes I can't stand her but then I hear her in acoustic and I like her again.

[@deaconwest]

MGMT had waaaaaaaaay more Funk but shes pretty good...

[@gembeam1991]

Katy killed this bottom line

[@emmanueljames1845]

In a good way or bad?!

[@whateverlolawants]

I thought I was going to hear her butcher my favorite song, but this is really nice. I hope she does more things like this.

[@jengatowerr]

I don't know why people are bitching in the comments. Both this version and the original are very good.

[@86crud]

Tash Sultana kicked the shit out of all of them.

[@jengatowerr]

@@86crud woah hello just listened to it and true honestly

[@luckylunie6753]

omfg I think I just found my all time favourite recording. the fact that Katy perry usually sings mainstream pop type songs just make this so much more of a treasure to hear, its like finding gold, but on you tube!!!

[@argiemonillas8842]

im here because of Pokemon Electric... (confused) 😅😅😅

[@californiahummus]

It makes me sad when Katy Perry or Beyonce sing acoustic. They are so overproduced and modulated- when all they need is a decent band. It's why pop music sucks.

[@kisungkang3109]

I know exactly what you mean

[@C23_I]

Not a die-hard Katy Perry fan, but I have to say she does have a nice voice. In my opinion she makes a better vocalist when it comes to singing acoustics or ballads instead of her dance/pop songs

[@charlier5172]

tbh, Beyonce has so many songs that showcase her vocals

[@HouseOfDemoir]

i miss THIS katy!

[@melvelasco9833]

Still listening to this. Love her vocals. :) Quarantine days..

[@vanessa02porto]

you haters cant change the fact that this is a fucking perfect cover, her voice is unique and katy perry is a damn good artist

[@amontes77]

paying homage to MGMT is cool. its even better when your rendition is executed with care for detail and appreciation for musicianship. this showcases her vocal abilities quite well.

[@3Evelynee]

This is actually pretty good, i like the extra "ooh" :)

[@nonstoprofling]

I love MGMT and Katy. I say this is one of Katy's best, but also is probably my favorite MGMT song. They both did it very well, not to say one did better than the other. They simply sing it in their own way.

[@alteregosheart]

Just found out this cover and, well, I would have never expected something like this from her. It's really cool.

[@melerinnolan]

I am legit shook. My worlds are colliding.

[@andrewsides1215]

It's a shame this cover isn't available on any music streaming service. Just like arctic monkeys cover of tame Impala's it feels like we only go backwards.

[@ryknic]

I really don't like Katy Perry's music but I honestly do love her voice. I love the way she did this cover.

[@pinkmusiicluva]

WOW!!! That's pretty much all I can say. I'm a much bigger fan of Katy's version of this song & I love her singing this style!

[@puppieparty5951]

How did I not know this existed for 11 years.... my life was not complete till now

[@elizabethbeard3691]

I love MGMT, and I love Katy Perry. This is fantastic. Each has their own take. But this is a HUGE honor that someone as well known and Katy is singing a song by a group that isn't as well known. I will still support both!

[@MusicOfJohnny]

why is everyone hating on this cover?! As much as I dislike katy perrys music, this is by far the best MGMT cover ive ever heard.

[@fraco180]

I actually really like this. She sounds amazing when she's just raw and not auto-tuning the crap out of her voice. I would buy her albums if this is the kind of musci she did.

[@trixiacariaga3376]

Her early songs are indie/rock and they were shelved by record companies. 😢

[@javieranaya5796]

It's about music taste I guess? On my side, I have bought all of her albums except for the 'One Of The Boys' (Pop Rock) one, I have not found it yet but anyway I am saying that some people appreciate her music and others do not and that is such a shame cause she really has some hidden gems in all her 5 albums. Probably her new album comes out at the end of 2023 or early 2024.

[@jiveassturkey8849]

I’m a heterosexual male and I have never understood why people find Katy Perry attractive. I guess beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder.

[@johnoconnor1221]

mgmt version kicks ass

[@ncd46]

I love MGMT sooo much, but this is really great. See, if Katy would make more music like this I would listen to her more often.

[@katrinalong7733]

This is amazing

[@klausgh]

Really love this! She puts a lot of life into it, almost like in a song performance onstage, her voice always tells a story while singing a song. 💜💜💜

[@selemonroe]

Better than the original song for me 👌, Katy's voice sounds so angelic, so delicate, so beautiful, as always ♥.

[@nicolehurd5219]

Haven't listened to this since the night I got locked up. Still beautiful. The night leading up to life changing experiences. But I guess I'm on top I have more now...but the raw feeling this gives me is unexplained....anh

[@ikerramirez3584]

Love this cover

[@stevesan]

wow i love the acoustic treatment of this song

[@denisseflores4817]

This is perfect!! 😍

[@Luck.y_lulu]

This cover is amazing. It’s always stuck in my head.

[@iampaul9poetry]

Fantastically beautiful cover.

[@a-love-supremist]

She did way better than Taylor Swift ever could.

[@user-em3ir4lx3t]

Taylor covered this?

[@alexalopez4680]

Why do people always have to compare her to Taylor swift. Are y'all really that insecure about k perry???

[@iTeacupPanda]

They're kind of rivals for America's sweetheart to be real. Plus, both were known for a pleasant - polite - bubbly - quirky kindness. Til of course Taylor was proven to not only be a liar, but a different person than she fronted entirely. :s

[@micaela8340]

@@iTeacupPanda ??? they’re friends now lmao

[@iTeacupPanda]

@@micaela8340 You're commenting on something over 4 years old and they're still rivals, friends or not they're in competiton.

[@Eminiousp95]

I don't get why people are hating on this. Surely the point of a cover is to put some of your own style and personality into someone else's song. Isn't that what she did? It sounds really nice, but of course it's not going to be the same as the original, she's not MGMT! Give her a break people, I love it.

[@user-rr6uy7re9o]

Damn. This is good.

[@MrKinPimpin]

its nice to see pop culture icons covering mgmt. theyre incredibly talented song writers.

[@Heiryuu]

This isn't a bad cover but Preston Pohl set the bar for covers of this song.

[@tonic4360]

+Heiryuu you got that right.

[@harrycordero8535]

Heiryuu agreed!

[@alimccartney2262]

Agree

[@hannahhakluytt1793]

Very good song and music Katy Perry one of the talented female singers I listen to

[@HowStrangeBand]

I FUCKING LOVE THIS SIDE OF KATY PERRY I AM CRYING AT HOW GOOD THIS IS

[@annavoigdizola]

I wish she did songs like this. I absolutely LOVE MGMT and her voice suits this kind of music so well

[@HealingTrout2]

still like Preston Pohl's version is better in my opinion, the dude has the perfect voice for this song

the bass part to this song is so great

yeah its great to make covers of peoples music, when they like a song and it means something to them, its always great

this is a brilliant cover, wow man shes earned my respect now, well done you

[@allyisaqueenmsp1762]

stop the hate I think both versions sound great but I do like MGMT's better

[@vanessa02porto]

BEST katy's cover

[@kylekickass]

I only learned this existed today from my stepmom.....

[@j.r.6043]

Dang used to listen to this constantly in 2011

[@vanessa02porto]

2024 and i cant live this more

[@ryanisvinyl]

She sounds very passionate in this, I think that is why the non Katy Perry fans like this... She doesn't sound all poppy (not that there is anything wrong with it, it did make her millions) but her pursuing a jazz album would be a great listen

[@tinidor08]

To all who don't like this. If this was not katy perry let's say an unknown singer by the name of smittywormjensesn but with the exact voice, would you still hate it? i don't like Katy Perry but I like this version. *drops mic*

[@inyourdreamsmaxine8122]

Smittywormjensesn. it just gets to me

[@vincentaltoro8725]

+tinidor08 Katy Perry is amazing. She did a shit job with this cover though. drops mic

[@KaraokeNig]

+Vincent Altoro Goddamn suckers dropping them mics all the time, somebody has to fix it again..

[@9serios5shit13]

he was number one!

[@marcusdeakin8110]

The answer is yes. I'd still hate it. Still a butchering of the original

[@MusicOfJohnny]

bro u dont know what ur talking about. this is by far better than any MGMT cover out there.

[@feliciathethird2586]

❤ if you are watching in 2016

[@andreakies8283]

Tash Sultana does the best cover of this song ever...that said...Katy did an excellent job..

[@brisstoanes8741]

Not too bad. Not a fan of Katy, but she has a good voice.

[@funnyfull27]

Calm down, both artists are good. My goodness no need to put anyone down. This is an eye of the beholder kinda situation. Some people like Katy better, Some people like MGMT better. In my opnion they are both amazingly talented artists.

[@wafflegal101]

okay, everybody, stop hating. Katy Perry is all about the illuminati brainwash crap, but don't judge this version of the song based upon what you think of her, judge it based upon how it sounds. That's the whole point of music. If it helps, imagine that she's some indie or no-name person. I actually like this version..

[@DestinyJaneHart]

Yeah, judge it by how it sounds because it sounds like she doesn't have a soul.

[@L3GITXBMX]

I admire that all the pop/hip-hop singers like to do indie band covers

[@NinjaShadow47]

I think it's good. don't judge way too quickly

[@SAWJ14]

hate the fact that people are trying to degrade her and hating her because she's trying and you aren't. she liked the song and wanted to sing it. so what? bet youd be in her face talking about how great it was if you were in front of her.

[@vincentjames1725]

If the original version didn't exist this would be okay

[@StaticKayK-z2c]

My favorite cover ever!!
