Katy Perry isn't giving up on that sixth Number One

  • January 17, 2012
  • Mikey

Katy Perry has released a third version of ‘The One That Got Away’ in her increas­ingly obsessive bid to beat the record of most Billboard Number Ones from any single album.

The new acoustic cut of ‘The One That Got Away’ follows the original version’s October release (peaking at Number 4) and the ‘remix’ featuring a new bit by B.o.B. (Number 3).

In response to the single slipping three places, Perry tweeted yesterday: "Special surprise 4U on iTunes! The amazing Jon Brion & I put a little ACOUSTIC spin on #the1thatgotaway Hope you like!"

If you live in America we urge you to just purchase the record so we can all go home happy before Pitbull gets involved.
