Katy Perry Opens Her Heart Wider With ‘143: I Love You More’ Digital Album Featuring Bonus Tracks

If you haven’t gotten on Katy Perry‘s love train yet you’re in luck because now there’s more ways to say it with your heart. The singer announced an expanded version of her new 143 album on Monday night (Sept. 23), 143: I Love You More. The expanded digital take on the 11-track original features bonus tracks “I Woke Up,” “No More Tears For New Years” and “Gimme Gimme (Solo Version).”

The latter seemingly features Perry only, with guest 21 Savage stripped off the song. “Good morning from Australia! I WOKE UP… with another surprise for you 143: I Love You More – a DELUXE digital download of 143 is available NOW for my [American] and [Australian] KatyCats but only for a limited time,” Perry wrote on X, where she also included a 20-second snippet of the peppy “I Woke Up.”

“I just open my eyes and sing every time/ I woke up, got another day/ I woke up, let’s celebrate/ Throw your hands up in the sky/ If you’re happy you’re alive,” Perry sings on the bouncy pop tune about appreciating the joy of living in which she gives thanks for the sun shining, puddle jumping and singing the blues away.

Perry performed at the second weekend of Rock in Rio in Brazil over the weekend, where she brought out 1980s pop icon Cyndi Lauper for a powerful duet on the latter’s 1985 Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping ballad “Time After Time.” The singer’s third visit to Rock in Rio came just days after she dropped the follow-up to 2020’s Smile, which Perry said in a statement was her effort to create “a bold, exuberant, celebratory dance-pop album with the symbolic 143 numerical expression of love as a throughline message”; 143 is text message code for “I love you.”
