‘Praying’
“In my opinion, this is the best song she's ever made,” one fan wrote.
“I feel like people only ever talk about the message of this song; which is great, it's a fantastic song lyrically, but people never talk about how this song absolutely kills musically,” another wrote. “It just builds and builds and builds, and when the synths come in at 4:17 I get goosebumps every time. This song hits like a truck; it's such a strong and powerful ballad. It's the type of song that's so powerful you just work up a sweat listening to it, and it's absolutely fantastic, and it makes the theme of the song so much more powerful.”
“’I’m proud of who I am,’” another quoted. The tone, the strength, the TRUTH!! Brings me to tears every time!”
‘Tik Tok’
“I haven’t heard this song in years and I still remember the lyrics,” one fan wrote.
“I’ve noticed that lately I’ve been coming back to old songs,” another commented. “They seem to make me happy after what’s been a pretty hard stretch for me and I think everyone else.”
“Fun Fact: The whole world was singing and dancing to this more than a decade ago,” another commented.
“Someone should really host a big party with only old songs like this,” another wrote.
“This song is older than most TikTok users,” another joked.
‘Your Love Is My Drug’
“Kesha is always going to be the mother of partying,” one fan wrote.
“I'll forever be grateful for being a pre-teen in 2010 and experiencing 2010-Ke$ha. She kept delivering hit after hit,” another wrote. “What a year!”
“If this song came out yesterday, it would be such a hit,” another commented.
“It's so weird how this song is already 10 years old,” said another.
“I love this song no matter how old it gets,” another wrote.
“11 years passed but still this song hits different,” said another. “Truly a masterpiece.”
“This song is my favorite of Ke$ha!” another commented. “I don't know what it is but it lifts me up like crazy and hits differently. The refrain is so dope!”

Her only concern is expressing herself and sending an amazing message to fans and anyone that can relate.”
