Editorial Reviews
CD/DVD NTSC/Region 0 pressing. Katy Perry goes back to her acoustic singer/songwriter roots on MTV's legendary Unplugged series. See the multi-platinum pop/rock superstar as you've never seen her before performing her #1 hit singles I Kissed A Gir and Waking Up In Vegas plus Thinking Of You, Ur So Gay and Lost. Plus two additional tracks - a cover of Fountains Of Wayne's Hackensack and the never before released track Brick By Brick. Stripped down versions of her hits with the addition of strings and brass on select tracks.

Pop Starlet Surprises,
By Jordan Buchnell (San Antonio, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: MTV Unplugged (CD & DVD) (Audio CD)
Katy Perry's Unplugged album came slightly out of left-field. Hardly anybody would expect a radio friendly pop star such as Perry to go ahead and release and album of her hits acoustically, in the classic Mtv Unplugged format. However, that is what she has done, and the results showcase the young singer/songwriter as a girl whose raw talent and ear for music has sadly been overshadowed by her over-the-top personality and outfits.
Her voice and stage presence are impressive, and her cover of Fountains of Wayne's "Hackensack" and her jazzed-up version of "I Kissed a Girl" are the stand-outs on the album. Particularly the latter, which turns the bragging party anthem into something of a darker, worrisome take on Katy's uncertainties with her sexuality. Whether this was deliberate or not is purely in the mind of the listener, and Perry obviously is content with just sitting back and letting her fans sort out the pieces. Regardless, this album stands as a testament to a young artist's talent and well-deserved place in the American pop music lexicon. Give it a listen. Highly Recommended!

Blown away!,
By LeisaMc (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: MTV Unplugged (CD & DVD) (Audio CD)
I just finished watching the show on Palladia... twice. Katy Perry is an artist that I have been torn about. I have liked her music, but I wasn't sure if I really wanted to buy a whole album. It's just a little too much pop for me, a little too young, and her antics made me take a "wait and see" approach. I just happened to turn on the show at the beggining. About 10 seconds into her jazzy rendition of "I Kissed a Girl", my jaw dropped and I started recording. I never noticed how fantastic her band is. They really shine in these accoustic versions where you get to hear the fine points. I was mesmerized for the whole show. As soon as I was done watching it through the second time, I launched Amazon in hopes that she had released a CD. I love it that I can get the DVD, too!

What a triumph!,

Thank god Katy Perry has the talent, intelligence, creativity, sophistication and maturity that critic Deimos "Rock Fan" lacks. When I by chance tuned in to Katy's "MTV Unplugged" performance on Palladia, I didn't know anything about her. I was blown away with her incredible performance. What a triumph! I am an active member of rock 'n' roll's original generation and a connoisseur of rock, pop, jazz, blues and country music. Hopefully the industry moguls will see fit to allow Katy to transcend commercial considerations. She is already way ahead of the game.
Sadly, the joke's on you, Deimos "Rock Fan."
