Hot N Cold

Perry releases Hot N Cold, from her album, One of the Boys. The song is inspired by an ex-boyfriend:

One day this person would send me a text and I would be so thrilled about it because I had been waiting for some kind of sign – a smoke signal. He would be all interested and then I would just lose him, or one day he would want to see me and then one day he wouldn’t. I didn’t know what was wrong with him, if he was bipolar, or if he was wearing a mood ring. I took the theme and the song kind of spilled out of me.
