List of Katy Perry songs

This article lists songs recorded and commercially released by Katy Perry.

Katy Perry (born Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson, Santa Barbara, California, October 25, 1984) is an American singer, songwriter and actress. Raised on gospel music by her Christian pastor parents, Perry's first album (released in 2001 under her birth name of Katy Hudson), was of Christian music.

This album was not a commercial success, and her next release (under the name Katy Perry) was in 2007, the single "Ur So Gay". This song did not chart, but Perry's next single, I Kissed a Girl" (released in 2008), was a #1 hit in the United States and many other countries and propelled her to worldwide fame.

Perry's first mainstream studio album One of the Boys followed later that year and subsequently became the 33rd-best selling album worldwide of 2008[1] and won two Grammy Awards nomination.

Perry's second studio album Teenage Dream was released in August 2010 and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. The album included the Billboard chart-toppers "California Gurls", "Teenage Dream", "Firework", "E.T." and "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)", and top five hit "The One That Got Away".

Chart positions are noted only for singles that broke the top 10 in the US or UK.
