"Never Really Over" on YouTube |
"Never Really Over" is a song by American singer Katy Perry. The song was released on May 31, 2019, along with its music video. It is an electropop and dance-pop song.[1] Perry wrote the song with German DJ Zedd, Dagny, Dreamlab, Hayley Werner, Gino Barletta, Michelle Buzz, and Jason Gill, while Zedd and Dreamlab produced it.[2] Perry worked with Zedd on their joint single, "365", earlier in 2019. The song is included on Perry's studio album, Smile.[3]
Patrick Ryan of USA Today called the song "an undeniable earworm that should prove to be a strong song-of-summer contender," while adding that the song was Perry's "best new song in years."[4]
The video features bright colors and dancing in California fields.[5] Perry undergoes acupuncture and is seen with a device catching her tears and watering nearby trees.
