I definitely think you need to list the writers and produces in the lead
done
The song performed modestly commercially -> achieved modest charting
done
the singer on her 2011 world tour, California Dreams Tour. On the tour, the singer -> singer, tour, singer, tour
fixed
Concert reviewers had mixed feelings on her performances -> gave her performances mixed reviews
done
Background
singer Katy Perry helped write the song -> makes it seems as though she had a very trivial role in its conception.Switch it up
done
remove reportedly, and write critics suggest
done
Composition
I think a music sample would be nice here. If you need help there, just list me what part and I'll upload it for you :)
That would be lovely! The section with "You fall asleep during foreplay - I'm not gonna stay and watch you circle the drain, Watch you circle the drain" lyrics would be best because that is mentioned in the prose.
is a sneerful rant song where -> needs citation
fixed
to have techno influences in it -> to have techno influences
done
All in, seventeen music engineers contributed to the track's composition -> this sentence is poorly placed. It should be back in the "Background" section, or somewhere else in the one, because you are going into critical detail, and this does not belong
done
Per MoS, quotes within quotes appear in single line ("Mimi said, 'God Rachel' lol.)
done
I say move that quote into the prose, and replace that spot with a music sample
Agreed
Reception
Polarized? quite vague, try something else. After reading the section, I see the reviews as pretty mixed if anything
fixed
The photo doesn't show cartoonish meant, but candy?
A steak can be seen in the right-hand corner
"Circle the Drain" offered as Perry -> "Circle the Drain" offered, as Perry
done
because of such a high entry -> its kind of redundant with the following line, as you say it "the biggest jump"
done
Enter the Hot 100.....?
done
Live performances
the set-list
done
the rafters
done
