Re: Katy Perry is NOT bubblegum pop!

I respectfully disagree. Unless we have two separate ideas of what bubblegum pop is, I don't see how people can mistake what Katy does for the bands I believe was meant to have the "bubblegum pop" label. Here is a short list of bands that I believe fit the bubblegum moniker.
Partridge Family
Bay City Rollers
Shaun Cassidy
Tiffany
Monkees
Donny Osmond
and please don't beat me up when I say this but 1970's Rick Springfield.
He became a much better writer in the 80's and his songs had depth.
