I loved the song 3 months ago but now I just cant bear it whenever it comes on.

One of those songs that got overkill kinda like Lady Gaga's Bad Romance & Pokerface

I can't stand Katy Perry's music and this song is no exception and I can't stand the line "boom boom boom brighter than the moon moon moon" or whatever it is. It makes me cringe.

I like some of her stuff but I think she's really mediocre live

You know what, i'm going off her FAST! I'm still pissed Rated R didn't get a grammy nom but TEENAGE SHIT DREAM DOES.

NOT FAIR. Rihanna's album needs recognition for the masterpiece that it is. >_>

AND........... Katy's album has been promoted ABSOLUTELY EVERYWHERE yet the sales aren't THAT good (about 2m-ish) , her voice is awful live too, ppl say Rihanna has a $hit voice but lets be honest, Rihanna has improved soooo much

I'm clearly pressed about the Grammy issue!.

I think we both know the real Grammy issue is that Bad Romance was robbed...



But yes OP, me too, the "boom boom boom" line is excruciatingly dreadful. Especially since she's trying to come across as iconic and uplifting.

Bad Romance is like GaGa's best song but I don't see why the fans should pissed over that. GaGa will be sweeping next years Grammys for real, with Beyonce and hopefully Rihanna ~ but it'll be someone like Ke$hit instead!

Only just starting to get sick of Firework. I never really liked California Gurls so I'm majorly sick of that now. I've always liked Teenage Dream but never loved it... but recently I've been listening to it a lot for no real reason, I've kind of only just discovered a love for it, 2000 radio plays later!

Alejandro pisses me off now. All of Gaga's songs (except maybe Just Dance) I can still happily listen to. Her songs have a weird thing about them that you never get sick of them...

I'll never get bored of Rihanna. I could listen to any of her singles and the vast majority of the album tracks of Rated R and Loud over and over and never get sick of them

I got fed up of it months ago. The amount of tv ads, trailers, montages, and radio airplay it's enjoyed in the last few months has been crazy. Wouldn't mind if it was a good song, but it's awful, which makes it all the more annoying.

Katy Perry is one of the most talentless popstars around.

Yes, I never liked it in the first place. It's an absolutely awful track. Matt Cardle sang it better on XF than Katy did herself! I like Katy, she seems sweet, but a great singer she aint.

Got sick of it a while back. When I gave the album a first listen through, "Firework" was a rare treat to listen to and I was thrilled she chose to release it as a single, it's gone on to sold tons - even more than "Teenage Dream" I'd say, especially in the cases of the U.S. and the UK.

However, the radio played it to death - video irritates me now - move on to the next single, or just move on to the next album please.

As for Gaga, as long as the radio don't play them, I can listen occassionally and enjoy. "Alejandro" is the big NO for me, heard it too much on holiday, loathe it now.

Telephone for me.

Never liked that song.

On Topic. Didn't like Firework when I first heard her sing it on X-Factor but as other posters pointed out, she's no that great live. Grew to love it now but it's starting to wear a bit thin. Will probably love it again when I don't hear it very often.

Quite like Firework but it's being played more now that it was when it was released for some reason.

I don't mind some of Katy Perry's songs (though I'm not a massive fan) but Firework is a really annoying song. It never seems to be off the music channels.

lol that was the first, and only one I'm fed up with, and it was my own fault. Downloaded when the first version leaked about 3 weeks before Fame Monster came out, shoved it on a CD for the car, and since it started with A, out of 200 songs, it was always the first track to start when I started the ignition. Every single time for months because I was too lazy to make a new CD, and you'd be amazed how many times you don't realise what you're listening to until it finishes and suddenly you realise "oh god I was listening to that again" (same thing has happened with other "A's" such as ABC by the Jackson 5, Airplanes by B.o.B. and About You Now (Ultrabeat Megamix) by the Sugababes when they've started a CD in my car lol)

Stopped listening to it until the video came out and got into it again, but after a few weeks again I just skipped it on the album.

You're like my music twin - I hadn't a clue what this song was either!

Just played it and it's bloody awful. Not catchy at all. The chorus is painful to the ears.

I do like California Girlz and Hot n Cold though (but not keen on the text speak in the titles).
