KATY PERRY Goes 'Power Metal'!

June 17, 2009

A heavy metal fan by the name of Andy Xiong has taken it upon himself to record a "power metal" version of the KATY PERRY smash hit "I Kissed A Girl" featuring the original vocal track by Katy and the rest of the instrumentation by Andy himself. Check out the impressive results below.

The original version of "I Kissed a Girl" was produced by Dr. Luke for Perry's 2008 album "One of the Boys". According to Perry, the song is "about the magical beauty of a woman."

Released as the album's lead single, "I Kissed a Girl" was a commercial success. It topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart, becoming the 1000th chart-topper of the "rock era." The song has since become a major worldwide hit, and along with the United States, it has topped the charts in more than 30 countries, including Australia, Canada, Ireland and the United Kingdom.

"I Kissed a Girl" was performed at the 51st Grammy Awards where it was honored as the "Best Female Pop Vocal Performance." It was also nominated for "Favorite Song" at the 2009 Kids' Choice Awards.
