The second single will be the album's title track, and she is performing it at the Teen Choice Awards, which she is also the host of.
With “California Gurls” riding high on the charts but an album that isn’t due instores until late August, it was inevitable that Katy Perry would probably have a second single out soon. Now, not only has she confirmed that the second single is the album’s title track “Teenage Dream”, but she may also perform the single at the Teen Choice Awards which she is set to host (airing August 9).
“I think I might be doing the second single off the record. It’d be a great place … at the Teen Choice Awards because I think a lot of kids are falling in love and they will relate to that song,” she explained. “That song is kind of like feeling that way when you were a teenager: really emotional, really invested. … It’s intense being in love and being a teenager. That’s what ‘Teenage Dream’ is about.”
The producer of the song hasn’t been revealed yet, but the Daily Star — who have heard the song — described it as “Summer in a bottle with a storming pop beat”, while MTV said the song: “picks up right where “California Gurls” leaves off. With a strong beat to back her up, Perry sings about a boy who makes her feel like a teenager again.”
Sounds like Katy probably has another hit on her hands and I absolutely can’t wait to hear it.

I read that it's a Doctor Luke track.

I hope they don't kill "California Girls". That song could probably ride high until August...

August 3 is a perfect adds date, IMO.
California Gurls still has another 3-4 weeks left in it before it starts to get annoying, I think by that point it's gonna be time for something new.
It also gives people 3 full weeks of a new single to get amped up for the album release.

I hope this sounds slightly different from "California Gurls". While that song was good it got annoying really quickly.

This is slower than I was expecting it to be, but it sounds like another Pop smash.

This could sound amazing in HQ. It's the new "Since U Been Gone"/"Who Knew."

Can't tell too much from that. Her vocals pierce through the LQ static though.

It doesn't sound too bad, but it doesn't seem strong enough to carry her album. It should have been released this month.

Ya, I can't tell anything about the production from the clip, but based on what I can hear, it's definitely not what I was expecting.

This isn't what I was expecting. It's pleasantly subtle for her. It's definitely classic Dr. Luke Pop/Rock. The progression is really similar to "Who Knew," but it has more new-wave influence...I'd say it's most similar to Gwen's "Cool" because of the new-wave synths. I think I'll love it, but it doesn't sound like a single at all.

This sounds really good based on that clip. Definitely different for her.

This sounds... just like "California Gurls," slowed down. I'm a bit disappointed.

This is decent. I don't like her falsetto strain type singing though.

I don't like this. I gave her the benefit of the doubt with California Gurls, but considering the producers she should have been able to come up with something better than this.
