After teasing for what seems like month, the music video for “Roar,” the first single off of Katy Perry’s forthcoming album Prism, is finally here! Keep reading to watch the full video with a few colorful screen caps and a teeny tiny bit of interpretive commentary.

The first single from Katy Perry’s much-anticipated album Prism has leaked early! Keep reading to give a listen to “Roar” and see if you think it has what it takes to make it to No. 1! Includes the complete lyrics so you can sing along from the very first listen. 🙂

Katy Perry has promised fans that her next album Prism will be darker and more mature than her previous pop endeavors, and being the marketing maestro that she is, she’s doing the reveal in stages via social media leading up to the album’s release on October 22. The latest reveal was in the form of the cover art for the first single from the album titled “Roar,” which doesn’t seem very dark, and I don’t know about being all that “more mature” either — although there is a noticeable lack of whipped cream shooting out of her boobs.

Since surviving her heart-breaking split from husband Russell Brand, singer Katy Perry has seemed to go through a bit of a metamorphosis, and as a result she has suggested that her new album Prism (due out on October 22) will have some more mature and darker themes than some of her previous fun-spirited (and smash hit!) pop singles. Today the 28-year-old singer provided a literal illustration of the changes in store with a new video promoting the first single “Roar” in which she sets fire to her blue wig!
