Musical style and lyrics
editThis article covers the charts, promotion, and reception. It would be great if it covered the musical style and lyrics. Hyacinth (talk) 18:37, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
Opening/video
editThe opening states the plot of the music video ... is there any other information (YouTube views, award nominations, etc) that could have this information removed from the opening to a new section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Beertenderissac (talk • contribs) 19:15, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Still free?
editIs the song still available for free legally?-Remurmur (talk) 05:20, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
Not first single
editThis IS NOT the first single of "One Of The Boys", this was released A LOT earlier then the album. It's just a promotion ¬¬ The lead single is "I Kissed A Girl". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.137.3.30 (talk) 14:53, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
I disagree with the Music video section
edit"In the video, Perry plays the song in front of a bright cartoon-like background. The video mocks aspects of modern culture including Myspace and Emo culture. The characters in the video are played by plastic dolls"
I disagree that it mocks Myspace and Emo culture. The song is clearly about some prude guy. The source given is a poor way of portraying this kind of information. Blueknightex (talk) 06:48, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
Article
editI'm unsure whether this article should be about the EP or the song. :S Yves (talk) 01:30, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
Promotional single vs. single
edit@SNUGGUMS: Do you have a source calling "Ur So Gay" a promotional single? Billiekhalidfan (talk) 00:59, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- The Guardian describes it as a "buzz single" (which is a synonym for promo single) and Billboard straight-up says "promotional single". For further proof it wasn't a single (though admittedly not as explicit with regard to being promotional), there's Official Charts Company calling it one of her biggest non-singles based on a combination of UK sales and streams.
