Katy Perry explains how daughter Daisy inspired new single ‘Lifetimes’

Katy Perry has opened up about how her daughter Daisy served as the inspiration behind her upcoming single ‘Lifetimes’.

The pop singer took to her official social media accounts to announce that her next single ‘Lifetimes’ is set for release on August 9. She shared a photo of the single’s cover art which features her holding a futuristic red and purple heart that is dripping clear liquid.

Perry is the mother of a three-year-old baby girl named Daisy who she shares with her fiancé Orlando Bloom. Speaking to The Sun, the ‘Roar’ singer revealed how her daughter inspired her to create the track.

“It is funny how sometimes you’re looking for your soulmate in a partner. It could be a dog, your mum, your best friend, your cat, but for me, it came in the form of Daisy,” she said (via Music News).

She continued: “I wrote Lifetimes about her. Every night before we go to sleep I say, ‘I love you’, and then I ask, ‘Will you find me in every lifetime?’ and she says, ‘Yes’.

“The love I was missing, every mountain I climbed looking for this view, all this love. It came to me when she entered my life. Maybe one day you will go on this journey but you will find this love, it does exist and it will exist for you.”

‘Lifetimes’ will follow her previous release ‘Woman’s World‘ which served as the lead single from her forthcoming LP ‘143’ which is set for release on September 20 and is available for pre-sale / pre-order here.

Perry was recently criticised for her music video for ‘Women’s World’, which some fans suggested was catering to the male gaze rather than challenging it, as seems to be the intention of the female empowerment-themed lyrics. Perry rebutted these accusations, saying the video was intended as satire. “We’re kind of just having fun, being a bit sarcastic with it. It’s very slapstick and very on the nose,” she said.

‘143’ follows her 2020 LP  ‘Smile’. NME reviewed the album at the time, giving it two stars and writing: “It’s frustrating, as this is the woman behind some of the most fun – and biggest-selling – songs of all time. But as much as you want ‘Smile’ to be a return to form, her fifth album’s songs fail to grip. All in all, ‘Smile’ lacks the fireworks of Perry’s record-breaking years.”

In other news, Perry recently praised Charli XCX and her ‘Brat‘ culture phenomenon, calling her a “super mega pop star”.
