Idolator has posted a review of Katy Perry’s “Never Really Over” calling it “a song of the summer contender.” Buy/Stream the song here and watch the video here.

The pop star’s fascination with healing and personal growth also comes through in the Philippa Price-directed video. It finds our heroine on a picturesque, but slightly unnerving retreat in Malibu where she dabbles in various new age treatments to mend a broken heart. It’s a stunningly filmed blockbuster that deserves your full attention. Fall in love with Katy’s next big hit below.
