  • i used to sing this song and wish i was strong enough to break up with my bf. now i did though and even though the past few months have been really hard, i'm so much happier and stronger now. if you're in a negative or unhealthy relationship....get out. you are strong enough<3

  • beautiful sing

  • 32 people became a shell of them selves... I hate those kinda comments! >_<

  • 31 should have their ears tested

  • This reminds me of my past relationship...he went against everything we ever were. Ive come to realize i will never rely on another guy for my own happiness. cause in the end, you only get hurt.

  • Forget Lady Gaga, Lmfao, Selena Gomez, and Justin Bieber sh*T Katy Perry FTW

  • these are the kind of experiences that made me hate the feeling of being bound to someone

    But for everyone out there , stay strong there's always a way out ! Don't let people try to change you even if it's hard you'll never be happy if you're not yourself

    Do what you want , live your life freely. That's worth a lot more than a long life of regrets

  • I wish I never met my ex. Life would be so much easier then...

  • ummm...... my friends told me 2 check this song out and honestly she sux in this song!!!!! no offense!!!!

  • @Sasasones fuck you.

  • One of my best friends shared this to me on my wall on facebook becuz there is this one guy and he will act like we r dating when were really not. I have to admit I like it, but when he tells people were not It just makes me wish we were even more. She tells me that hes not worth it if he does it and I agree, its just so hard cuz i'm so lost in him and can't seem to find my way out. I have completely let him rule my world........I wish it was different. Love youu besty....& Him.......

  • I love this song other than..The One That Got away

  • LOL @MrsRobinHood "69 Thumbs Up" XD I'm sorry I just had to point that out...

  • Me and my socialanxiety's song...

  • Does Anyone think I should send this to my ex, who was the hugest jerk but I still loved him and he called me a bitch behind my back? 10 likes and I will!

  • @UltimateFrisbeeLuv10 Do it , girl. give him a special "fuck you" for me <3

  • Everytime I listen to this song I think of my mom. Life has been pretty hard on her; but she will always be my phoenix

  • I think this song goes out to all the ladies that are kept in the dark by the ones that they love. Don't let ANY GUY that you love bring you down. take life in your own hands

  • After my boyfriend broke up with me my friend showed me this song and It made me get over the jerk and do things that involve socializing. :) Thanks Kat and Katy Perry!!!

  • Her best song :)

  • i like more her old songs are more cute :)

  • i like this song

  • i love this song sooo much it is sooo beautiful. Go katy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! she herself is one os the most amaing people in the world!!!!!!!!!!! she is my rolemode!!!!!!!!!! 10 likes on this comment i'll sing it for the talent show

  • I love the font. What's it's called?

  • I love the part 0:19 till the end

  • I like how the last line is "she is unstoppable"

  • we rule our world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • people should get a life

  • I can feel the love in Katy Perry heart !!!!!!

  • (dull) at 30 haters

  • i sung this a thousand times and still my throat doesnt hurt.its probably becuase it engoys it tooo much lol!!!

  • i dont get it :[

  • First time I've listened to this song. First impression: Clever lyrics, pretty song, but too sad for me to listen to.

  • she used to be a pearl hums song

  • this song reminds me off my mum because my dad robbed her self esteem :'(

  • why dont they play this song on the radio i would much rather listen to this than sexy and i know it!!! this song has accutuial meaning when most of the songs dont!

  • @peytonkullander0189 ikr it should've been a single

  • @peytonkullander0189 i think it is better than the one that got away

  • @peytonkullander0189 Because "Sexy and I Know It" is popular and when radio stations play popular songs, more people tune in, and the radio station gets more money and such. That's how the world works, honey.

  • great song

  • Dont stay hiding in the dark, no matter what keeps you down- luv u katy <3

  • So true...

    so many men are afraid of what we can accomplish on our own that they hide our talents. look at some of the cultures that make women hid there body's and don't let them make there own decisions. look at all the girls that cant get an education because there father said no.

    Just because they have a dick doesn't mean they have to act like one too.

  • i love this song it reminds me of myself

    lol :)

  • lol i love this song

  • what's moment? i don't undesrtand

  • Why don't they ever play songs of hers like this? I'd rather hear this than Teenage Dream a billion times...

  • @MissCrystalMariee I always think that too. Then maybe my mom would be proud of what music I listen too haha

  • @MissCrystalMariee that was rude it was ok

  • best song by katy perry

  • I showed this song to my best friend who let herself be broken by these boys over and over again. She cried. She knew exactly what to do. Guess who is now a single, strong girl focusing on her dreams? That girl. This is how powerful music is.

  • :") very inspiring :"3

  • Its like 50 50 with men. Half are awesome bfs and wont care if your beautiful or not. The other half are worthless jerks who don't even care about you and try to control you. I would actually get to know the guy before we just go "hey lets go out". If any man would do that to me i would backslap him.

  • <3 it

  • @MrJohn90 well go on then write a song so everyone can see if its true bcuz i think ur the 2 year old as u act like it... :D

  • the first song I hear, that has my name =)

  • lyrics are wrong.

    

  • FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-CANT REACH MOUSE F*CK HELP

  • omg i LOVE this song it is soo GOOD but thestories that some people put up on this is sad!

  • Dear ____, I love you. 

  • i just.... i dont know. i like katy perry. but this song its just,... it really has a meaning but just its not what i think would come out of her.

  • this song has such a strong meaning nobody should ever have to change just because someone wants you to thats because they feel too intimidated of you never listen to anyone who asks you change or like the song says YOU WILL BE BECOME A SHELL OF YOURSELF. feel proud of how you are there's a reason you are that way

  • I appreciate songs such as this one. Don't get me wrong, I like music that has a nice beat when Im out trying to have fun but when it just me or im riding in the car this is the kind of music I prefer. These kind of songs last longer in people's minds bc they mean more than jst having fun. Songs like this speak words that some of us have hidden inside. Me and my friend brittany are just about nvr not together or not listening to music. The two of us use music to help explain the way we feel

  • This song applies to me right now.

    I have a bf of 2 years and 10months.

    He makes me feel really insecure that every bit of me has to be fixed.

    I clearly remember the days when I thought that i was fine the way i was and i actually liked myself. I loved myself, i was able to love him too.

    Then he tells me that he wants me to be more girly.

    And ALOT MORE.

    Yesterday he told me to get strong diet tea... sigh

  • @AdrianneAdriano ...No offense but if he makes you feel like that, why are you with him?

  • @AdrianneAdriano Don't listen to him..There is another guy out there to make u feel way better then that jerk..

  • @AdrianneAdriano You should never have to feel like that. Somebody did this to me recently, & he's not even my boyfriend. He's just a jerk who doesn't care. & you need to find someone else you can make you feel beautiful. Because everyone is beautiful in their own ways. Love yourself no matter what. Sometimes it's hard, but there's someone that will make it easier for you. (:

  • A song for all the girls with dickhead ex's.

  • @MrsRobinHood i think we all have had that moment.

  • One of best musics ever.... i'll still listening to this in 2890 with my iPhone 2000s...

  • p-pretty

    e-exquisite

    a-awesome

    r-really special

    l-loved and cared about

    <3

  • This used to be me. A guy I really liked and went out with always held me at arms lemgth. It was like he was scared of me or maybe just the strength I held within. He kept me in the dark and refused to let me shine. I didn't notice this till after the fact. I was so inlove that it didn't matter. He dumped me and broke me down to the core, where I was most vulnerable. Well, I came back swinging. I showed him that no one can shut out my light forever, that the real me will always shine through.

  • Reminds me of Rachel from Glee.

  • @MomoTheStrange ?! xD

  • my new favorite song :L

  • where it says "some man" it is supposed to says "cement". just a heads up ;) <3

  • @lizcullen6 (: She Hssnt Fixed It! :'(

  • This explains a controlling relationship perfectly. Many people over look them, but that kind of relationship can be very hard. Nice song :)

  • Pearls should be S I N G L E :P

  • why are people putting chain mail on here i`m serious it scars me at night.I have my

    sister come in the dark with me after reading them

  • i love this song! Its so great! : D

  • u suck at litsenin to music and duin the lyricz!

  • this is my song now

    

  • i love this song so much!

  • wth? I can relate to this.. :( I'm spposed to be a strng girl, but, my first byfriend left me. He lied to me, he tld me that he loves me, but in the end it turns out tht he's really in lve wit my bestfriend. Tht was my 1st heartbreak, and since then, I nver learned to love like wht I've did to him. I bcame bitter,I couldn't settle in one guy, mybe bcause, I wnt a rvenge.. But, that wasn't the rght thng I know..and now, another guy, fooled me.. :( Damn, I love him so much.. but,he lied again. :(

  • Why is this song not popular? I think this is better than Last Friday Night

  • I fell in love with this song the minute i heard it i learned it on piano and sung it for days. Now i can sing it really well may be doing a cover 2 it song

  • my frend needs to listen to this song

  • Very Inspiring :""} i cried, BRAVO!

  • good song but it's "but now she's stuck deep in CEMENT"

  • love this song :]

  • u spelled cement wrong u put some man.....

  • This song can relate to me so much. My ex-boyfriend cheated on me with my bestfriend & he made her, her pearl & he never talked to me, but he was always with her. & i heard a bunch of rumors going around the school he cheated, so i believed them & broke up with him. now i'm just a shell left behind.

  • Theres a girl at my school who keeps me in the dark. Im a girl too, so if i would have to change the lyrics a little if i sang this to her. She tries to control me and my friends. I couldent take it anymore so i told her she was mean and to leave me alone. She started crying (like always) and she was so close to telling on me. But whatever. I didnt do much and what i said was true. SHE'LL NEVER TAKE MY PEAL!!!

  • This song has a great message and makes complete sense!! <3

  • i went to see her in liverpool echo arena in october the 18th want to go again cause she a good enenterner and good live and by the way my name is emilly

  • When she sings the line "Squeezing out the life that should be let in".

    She was also singing a line about a mouse...... so is she squeezing the mouse?

  • @missbrookigrace10 no its about the boyfriend makes his girlfriend be a tag along and him not letting her be who she wants and not letting her speak freely its a shame the world of dating is going back to the mediaval time

  • if u like this....Oh wait, I actually have a life.

  • LOL, I have a guy friend that fits this...?

  • My name is Megan and that actually means Pearl so I thought I'd listen to it. I had no idea that it would speak to me in such a way.

  • The first time I heard this song was on Wednesday when she sang it at the last show for the California Dreams tour and I started crying almost instantly because I felt like she was singing about me. This song definitely snapped me out of my dependence upon him for my own happiness. Thank you Katy for reminding me that I'll always be a Pearl and am charge of my own world.

  • @CALiSKATELOVE Amen . I cry whenever I re-watch the performance.

  • it's ironic that my ex is the one who showed me this song and said how it fit me because of what other guys have done to me. and now when i hear it i think of how it fits me because of what he did to me :/

  • saw this live tonight, i cried. katy perry is phenomenal <3

  • I love these lyrics..whenever i look up this song i choose these lyrics.Thanks:)

  • I used to be a pearl... But now that I'm with you, I'm okay with being a shell of myself. Nothing makes me happier than being with you, no matter how weak it makes me.

  • love this song!! really good lyrics!!!

  • Thumbs up if your were a KatyCat since the beginning!! <3 <3

  • @RawrImmaMonster454 It's not about being a KatyCat from the beginning, it's about being a KatyCat until the end(; ♥

  • @xOPINIONATEDx Amen to that!

  • @xOPINIONATEDx so true :)

  • @xOPINIONATEDx thts right!!! i thought she was cool at first and now i LOVE her!!!!

  • @xOPINIONATEDx  your right

  • this song remindes me of my x-bf!!!!!!!!!!DX

  • I GET IT. everyone was once a fucking pearl. can we just stfu and listen to the music and comment on the music/video and /not/ your personal life story.

  • @IrishLuck109 I GET IT! Yhur jealous that every1 is a pearl but yhu. can yhu just stfu and dont read the damn comment k?

  • @BFFLFJ11 I GET IT! you never passed elementary school spelling. anyways, it's not just one comment. it's ALL of the comments; it gets annoying. and obviously since i'm on the video i'm going to read the comments like practically everyone else...

  • wrong lyrics...i think she says stuck in cement...not in some men...

  • im no pearl, trust me though i might be tough as nails which makes me a rock(maybe):( sorry to sound mopey i find those people like that to be annoying. no offense but you should at least try to be as strong as the guys because we females go through more pain then they do so we need to set the example. you getting heartbroken and hurt is like saying men should do whatever they want with us because we wont put up a fight. Sorry

  • every girl is a pearl until a guy comes along and breaks her.

  • i was a pearl but i dont know what i am no more. i am trying to become a pearl again but its hard and i keep falling back again to being a shell. what am i doing wrong?

  • @kittyocleo stand up for yourself and be YOU

  • @dhjil9 thanks :)

  • This is my fav song on this amazing album.

  • I LOVE this song!!!! Every girl has a pearl and I love how this song expresses that and tells girls that its not ok if this happens but not to let yourself down and that you don't have to "be held down" thumbs up if you agree

  • I remember a year ago when you told me I was a pearl. That I was worth so much you'd never let me go. Somewhere along the way I must've become nothing more than a grain of sand to you...

  • Pearl.... Me? No never been one, never will be

  • @FallingDomino129 uu are and always will be a pearl...... shine on!if u need to talk inbox me

  • @FallingDomino129 You are if you believe you are, don't let anyone influence what you think about yourself. If you want to be a pearl be one. Don't let anyone tell you different.

  • i listen to this song and cry sooo hard
