"Part of Me" is a dance-pop[11] and pop rock song set to a house, beat[12] and is composed in the key of D minor. The song is set in time signature of common time with a tempo of 130 beats per minute.[13] According to James Dinh of MTV, the dance-pop,[13] pop rock,[6] and house[11] song was produced "by pop mastermind Dr. Luke",[6] and noted that "the pop star appears strong, bold and just a tad resentful after a breakup" on the track.[6] The singer declares herself unbreakable after a breakup, singing about it in lines such as "Days like this I want to drive away/ Pack my bags and watch your shadow fade/ 'Cause you chewed me up and spit me out/ Like I was poison in your mouth/ You took my light, you drained me down/ But that was then and this is now, now look at me."[6] Dinh also compared "Part of Me" to Perry's previous single "California Gurls" (2010), stating that "the tune's steady beat amplifies" as the chorus starts.[6] "This is the part of me/ That you're never gonna ever take away from me/ Throw your sticks in the stones/ Throw your bombs and your blows/ But you're not gonna break my soul/ This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me," she sings.[6] Chris Ryan also of MTV speculated that the song is directed to Perry's ex-boyfriend Travie McCoy,[10] while New York magazine journalist Amanda Dobbis considered it as "another break-up anthem".[14] However, Perry later reworked the lyrics, which was speculated that it was directed towards ex-husband Russel Brand. Perry later denied the rumors stating:

I wrote it two years ago, which is funny because everybody is like 'God, it sounds so current' ,and some people that I work with were like 'You should just say you wrote it a couple of weeks ago.' I'm like 'I'm not a d---, I'm going to tell the truth.' I wrote it two years ago when I was writing and recording Teenage Dream,[but] it didn't feel right on the record. I would've had to take out one of my other songs that [made the album] a nice, complete package. —Katy Perry [15]

Reception

Critical response

The song had received generally positive reviews from music critics. Andrew Hampp from Billboard gave "Part Of Me" a positive review, stating "Much has been made of the breakup jam's supposed jabs at ex-husband Russell Brand [...] Post-divorce lyrics like "You can keep the diamond ring/It don't mean nothing anyway" notwithstanding, "Part Of Me" is a dancefloor rave-up [...] The song also brings to mind Jessie J's "Domino," another Dr. Luke confection, chugging along to a similar treadmill-ready groove and riding a guitar hook. And, as Perry already previewed at this year's Grammys, the song has potential to become a live favorite, perfect for fists-in-the-air sing-alongs."[16] Amy Sciarretto from PopCrush praised the song itself, giving it 4 out of 5 stars, however gave a mixed review of its "vicious" lyrics towards her ex, Russell Brand – "The song puts the brakes on the frothy, confectionary, lighthearted lyrical fare the blue-haired diva is known for, in favor of taking some serious lyrical shots directed towards her soon-to-be-ex-husband [...] Perry encases a rather venomous, yet self-empowering message in a synth heavy, looped beat pop song — and she never passes up the chance to take a swipe. She always had sass and pizazz, but she is being downright vicious towards the British comedian she was wed to for only a year. It’s a different side of her on the lyrical and vocal level; the studio treated sonics are quite familiar."[17]

Chart performance

In the United States, "Part of Me" debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, for the issue dated March 3, 2012, as well as becoming Perry's sixth number one single for Teenage Dream era. "Part of Me", becoming the 20th song to debut atop on the chart, Perry's seventh number-one song there and her sixth in the 2010s, tying her with Rihanna as the artist with most number one singles during the 2010s so far.[2] The song debuted at number one on the U.S. Hot Digital Songs chart with 411,000 copies sold its first week.[18] In second week, the single dropped to #4, after one week at #1. In it's third week, the single dropped to #5.[19] In fourth week, the single dropped to #10.[20] In it's fifth week it remained at 10 on the Hot 100.[21] The song debuted at number one on the New Zealand Singles Chart, becoming Perry's first number-one debut there and her seventh single to reach the top of the chart. She tied Mariah Carey for the record of seven number-one singles in the country.[22]

Music video

Background and Synopsis

For The Sims 3: Showtime, Perry shot a 30 second video where she sang Part of Me, which premiered on The Sims YouTube page. Perry began filming the official music video for "Part of Me" on February 16, 2012. It took place at the USMC's Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton in Oceanside, California.[23] The video was directed by Ben Mor. The music video premiered on March 21, 2012 during the program MTV First: Katy Perry. Perry stated that she wanted the shoot to be all about girl power.[24]

As she sits in her car gazing at her necklace Katy notices her boyfriend cheating on her. She confronts him in his office and they break up. As the titular track begins she drives to a gas station and buys a can of tea inside the shop. After paying she notices a moto-sticker on the bulletin board; the sticker reads "All women are created equal, then some become Marines".[24]

Increasingly emotional, Perry gathers her possessions and enters a nearby restroom to begin to change her identity. She cuts her hair and changes into a hoodie and jeans. Perry enlists in the United States Marine Corps and, after a brief scene in recruit training, Perry reports to the School of Infantry for the Marine Corps' rigorous basic combat instruction course. Elements of these scenes are inaccurate, as female Marines do not train on the west coast where the video was filmed, but rather at Recruit Depot Parris Island and SOI East in Camp Lejeune, NC. Marines are also inaccurately depicted as going through certain elements of Basic Underwater Demolition/Seals (BUD/S) indoc and training, such as the infamous surf-torture, underwater combat training and IBS (Inflatable Boat, Small) drills. Perry eventually finds herself reminiscing over her experiences with her ex-boyfriend, yet remains spiteful towards him, burning a love note and venting frustration through MCMAP, the Marine Corps Martial Arts Program. Throughout the remainder of the video Perry is shown in training as well as dancing beneath a large garrison flag. The video ends with the final transformation into a basically trained warrior, clad in MARPAT camouflage utilities, body armor and camouflage face paint.[24]

Reception

The video garnered positive reviews from critics. Ethan Sacks from New York Daily News said "Singer dons combat fatigues and aims some barbed lyrics, perhaps at Russell Brand [...] Katy Perry has traded her whipped cream-spewing brassiere for military-issue combat fatigues for her new video. Judging by the way Perry handles a bayonet in the "Part of Me" video, Brand may want to consider staying half a planet away."[25] Bruno Nessif from E! Online wrote "After channeling some Demi Moore in G.I. Jane and chopping off her hair, Perry enlists and trades in her handbag and cell phone for some camo gear and boots. Hey, she makes it look good."[26]

Ray Rahman from Entertainment Weekly gave the video a positive review: "It’s less G.I. Jane and more In the Army Now, but Katy Perry’s new pop-military video for “Part of Me” is still an intense ride."[27] Jenna Busch gave the video a positive review, commending it's girl power, writing "Instead of showing traditional break up visuals like burning some guys clothes, fights with now sound, punching walls, etc., "Part of Me" has Perry joining the Marines. It's actually far more dramatic to see her, post break up, hacking off her hair in a bathroom than it would be to see her crying in the rain or something."[28] The Prophet Blog said "“Part Of Me” is a pretty solid video, and it’s nice to see this side of Katy again. I’d never shun the Teenage Dream era because it brought us some seriously amazing singles and visuals, but it’s at the point now where she needed to start channeling One Of The Boys again, and she’s done that. This current image will certainly suffice until we get bored again, and then start complaining that we want her to start lactating liquorice and shooting fireworks out of her vagina."[29] James Montgomery from MTV gave a positive review of the video and Perry's role saying: "Over the years, Perry has been a California Gurl, a nerdy teenager, an alien and just about everything in between, but up until now, she's never really been an actual person." He went on to praise the video stating: "Part of Me" is unlike any pop video in recent memory. Rihanna did military chic in her Hard video (she even straddled a tank), and just about every one of Perry's pop contemporaries have ventured down the same path. But they were never really in the military; they were just making it more fabulous. Perry takes the opposite tact: She cuts off her hair, she eschews makeup, she fights, crawls, suffers. It's a commendable level of commitment. Your move, everybody else."[30]

Live performances

On February 12, 2012, Perry performed the single live for the first time along with "E.T." at the 54th Grammy Awards. The presentation began with "E.T.", but the song ended partway through the chorus with electronic sound effects and the stage lights turning off.[31] Following this, Perry, wearing a bodysuit with the appearance of golden armor and a new hair color, descended from the roof of the ceremony in a transparent cube. The object then shattered and fireworks around the stage went off,[32] before she began to sing "Part of Me", with the dancers who were present during "E.T." reappearing and lifting Perry up as well as performing a routine behind her.[33] Perry will perform the song at the Let's Dance for Sport Relief final on March 17, 2012. Perry will perform the song at as part of a Live Lounge special for BBC Radio 1's Fearne Cotton on March 19, 2012 along with "The One That Got Away", "Firework", "Thinking of You" and "Niggas in Paris". Perry will perform the song at the Le Grand Journal on March 20, 2012. Perry will perform the song at the 2012 ECHO Music Awards on March 22, 2012. Perry is also set to perform the song at the 2012 Kids' Choice Awards on March 31, 2012,[34] and season 11 of American Idol on April 26, 2012.[35]
