E.T.

first off, i LOVE this song. i'm really excited about the rest of the album. the meaning of this song is pretty obvious. the affect this guy has on her makes her believe that he's something other than human. he has her so infatuated that he MUST be something supernatural. metaphorically, obviously. has NOTHING to do with the illuminati or fornicating with demonic entities to gain a higher standing in society... it's JUST A SONG with a metaphor. anyone who believes otherwise needs to go back to their parent's basement and continue to read their comics & watch star trek. contemplate more conspiracy theories.

good grief.

anyway. awesome song. :)

ugh >< you guys its about Russell Brand! he's from "another world" of drugs, rampant sex, and no inhibitions, Katy comes from an insanely conservative background. Russell is English, foreign. Katy is American. its just a play on concepts. and also if you wan to look at it a little more literally because foreign people (although most often illegal immigrants) are called Aliens here. shes not really singing about having sex with little green men, people. come on. its not that hard to figure out

I know what you're thinking. Katy Perry didn't write Trock, but hear me out. "Could you be the devil? Could you be an angel?" Didn’t Reinette, in Girl in the Fireplace, say something like this?

"You’re from a whole other world a different dimension" Obvious reference is obvious. Different world = Gallifrey. Different dimension, TIME is the 4th dimension. HE IS A TIME LORD.

"You’re so super sonic" Um. Sonic screwdriver, bro.

"They say be afraid you’re not like the others" Didn’t Martha’s mom say almost exactly this?!

"Infect me with your love, and fill me with your poison" This one’s a little backwards, Katy. The Doctor and Rose’s first kiss was when the DOCTOR was getting “filled with poison” (aka taking the vortex out of Rose).

"I wanna walk on your wave length and be there when you vibrate for you i risk it all" This reminds me of The Parting of the Ways when Rose decided that she’s going to risk everything for the Doctor. “Be there when you vibrate” could also be interpreted as “be there when you regenerate.” Which she has been. She’s been there when he regenerating into Ten and right before regenerating out of Ten.

Whatever. this might sound like a fangirl swooning at a song that is vaguely about Doctor Who, but remember who Katy Perry is married to. Russell Brand. And I hope he’d show her the best of British pop culture, which arguably is Doctor Who.

absolutely beautiful...its about a different , weird person that attracts her....its a new feeling...i personally know this feeling cause i am in love with a guy like him...he isnt an alien but he is also weird and beautiful.....ORE <3

this song is so hot.....to me it's about a new love...something completely different than what u knew before

This is about the Doctor and (most probably) Rose.

Duh.

First off, I like the song because it has a catchy beat that makes you want to dance. However, the song disturbs me because when I analyze this song I notice that its playing on the weak, submissive - very passive gender role that this society finds "sexy" for women. For instance: "You're so supersonic/Wanna feel your power/ Stun me with your laser" coupled with "Take me, t-t-take me/ Wanna be your victim" - these two stanzas - or verses - use hostile words to describe this dynamic they have. She's pleading to be "taken" and she wants to be victimized. This is not at all empowering to women. In fact it sets up a very narrow view of what makes a woman sexy. It's superficial, and ultimately it perpetuates a dangerous stereotype that it's okay to victimize women. I'm not saying this was intentional. I'm also not saying that the man she sings about is abusive. It's just interesting that in this society it's sexy when women follow the "subservient" dynamic in a relationship. But I know a lot of people love this song - I'm not trying to crap all over it - I like it too, the composure of the music and the premise of the song are wonderful... I just wish she would have sent a better subtextual message.

Fact: Katy Perry's "E.T." is about the Doctor. Thus; Fact: Katy Perry met the Doctor.

I love this song. I am not a big Katy Perry fan (I really don't find her voice of excellent quality), but this song is such a turn on. It's hauntingly sexy and sensual. Why she (or her people) ever wanted Kanye West in the song is beyond me; this version is SO much better than the one featuring him.

I believe that each song has a different meaning to each person but to me it means she found someone she loves but he's different than other people, and people probably call him weird because he's different. And she loves that about him, she loves that he is not just another 'normal' person. :)
