Katy Perry Releases New Single From Teenage Dream 'The One That Got Away'

By Bruce Edwin  

Global pop superstar Katy Perry will release a new single, "The One That Got Away," from her Grammy-nominated No. 1 album "Teenage Dream," to radio today, reports > Hollywood Sentinel publisher and film producer Bruce Edwin.

"I'm so pleased to select 'The One That Got Away' as my 6th single because this song shows a very different side of me that I haven't shown with my past singles on this record. I think that everyone can relate to this song. I wrote this song about when you promise someone forever, but you end up not being able to follow through. It's a bittersweet story - hopefully, the listener learns from hearing it and never has to say they had 'The One' get away," Katy states. "Katy merges performance art in to video and her stage persona's with comic genius," Bruce Edwin states, "She is an incredibly talented songwriter, and pop artist that-along with a few others- has made the usually bland genre quite interesting and fun again."

"The One That Got Away" is the sixth single to be released from Teenage Dream. The album's previous five singles - "California Gurls," "Teenage Dream," "Firework," "E.T.," and "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" - all peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Pop Songs chart as well as on the Hot 100 chart. Katy is only the second artist, and the first female, to notch five > No. 1's in the Hot 100's 53-year history, Bruce Edwin states. >

A video for "The One That Got Away" will be shot in the coming days. Stay > tuned to Katy's website www.kayperry.com, as well as her social media pages, for more details.
