Walking on Air (Katy Perry song)
"Walking on Air" is a song recorded by American singer Katy Perry for her fourth studio album, ''Prism'' (2013), included as its fourth track. It was released to digital retailers on September 30, 2013, by Capitol Records, as the record's second promotional single, following the release of "Dark Horse". The song was part of a poll promoted by Pepsi, along with "Dark Horse", where fans could vote for which song they wanted to become the first promotional single from ''Prism''. Inspired by CeCe Peniston and Crystal Waters, "Walking on Air" is styled in deep house and incorporates influences from 90s Eurodance.
Upon its release, "Walking on Air" received generally favorable reviews from music critics, who highlighted its catchiness, but were ambivalent towards its musical composition. The track entered several charts with moderate digital downloads, including reaching number 34 on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100. Internationally, it charted in the top 20 in various countries, including Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. Perry promoted "Walking on Air" with several live performances, including at the 2013 iTunes Festival and ''Saturday Night Live''.
==Background and release==
"Walking on Air" was produced and programmed by Swedish record producers Klas Åhlund and Max Martin. It was recorded and engineered at Apmamman and MXM Studios, located in Stockholm, Sweden and Conway Recording Studios in Hollywood, California. It was engineered by Michael Illbert, Peter Carlsson, and Sam Holland, and assisted by Cory Bice. Serban Ghenea later mixed the song at MixStar Studios, in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Background vocals were provided by Sabina Ddumba and the Tensta Gospel Choir.〔
In a press release on August 20, 2013, PepsiCo announced a partnership with Perry to promote her fourth studio album ''Prism'': the company announced a social "tweet-to-unlock" voting program, where fans could unlock song titles and their respective lyrics, by tweeting the hashtag #KATYNOW. The chosen tracks for the campaign were "Walking on Air" and "Dark Horse". Once tweets voting for each song reached a certain number, their respective samples were unlocked and fans could start to vote for which one they wanted to have an early release on digital retailers. The winner was "Dark Horse", which was released on September 17, 2013 on the iTunes Store. However, after the release of the aforementioned song, the iTunes release of "Walking on Air" was announced, slated for September 30.
