Prior to recording the album, Perry discussed with Rolling Stone regarding her plans for the album, stating that she did not want to "alienate" her fanbase:
The second record is really important to me because I think it shows whether I'm meant to do this, or I got lucky. Basically what I want to do is not alienate the audience that I have at all. I think some people feel like they have had success with one thing and one idea and one record and they want to pull a 180 and try a totally different thing, I definitely feel like that's the wrong move. I feel like you just have to grow from it, you can branch off of it but keep the tree the same in some ways. Some people get full of themselves, and they think that anything they do is going to work or turn to gold or be the right move, and the reason why you're here is because of the people that like your music and the fans, so you always should keep an ear open to what they're saying".Katy Perry
Perry added she would "definitely keep it pop. 'Love Fool' by the Cardigans meets 'Into the Groove' by Madonna but a little more meat on the bones lyrically. I'm not just gonna talk about the beat and just dancing, I like to get into the meaning."
Perry began recording the album on October 13, 2009 and wrote on twitter saying that there are "lots of layers to get through, thankfully Greg Wells is there to do the peeling." She worked with various artists, writers, and producers such as Greg Wells, Guy Sigsworth, Dr. Luke, Max Martin, Ryan Tedder, Rivers Cuomo, Thaddis "Kuk" Harrell, Greg Kurstin, Benny Blanco, Darkchild, Cathy Dennis, Ester Dean, The-Dream and Christopher "Tricky" Stewart. Perry wanted to work with The-Dream and Tricky Stewart because she loved Beyonce's "Single Ladies". She added on the comment saying "It has a great level of sass and fun. Everybody wants to sing that kinda anthem." Stewart commented on working with Perry during an interview with Rap-Up Magazine Rap-Up magazine in December 2009 saying, "It’s a different gear for me. This is a very important project for me ’cause people are waiting to see what I’m gonna do."
As for the visual component, Perry likens it to "going from Shirley Temple, Betty Boop to more of a Betty Paige [sic], pop art-sarcastic-fun-Lichtenstein picture: still bright, but the colors are more saturated, and it's more metallic fuchsia or purple than bubblegum pink."
Perry told MTV News about the process of the album and that she used her "gut":
"In the very beginning [of this album], I was telling the record executives, 'Listen, don't tell me when it's over, don't tell me when to turn it in, don't tell me when we're out of money. I'll let you know when my gut says 'Go.' Because I've always followed my intuition, and that's worked for me. I'm not going to overthink that, because it's always worked for me."
On March 27, 2010, at 2010 Kids' Choice Awards, Perry told MTV News that she considered the album "a summer record". She added that her previous teases about the album still fit, saying "it's what I said I wanted earlier". She has also stated that the album is inspired by ABBA and The Cardigans. According to Perry, she gave her producer Dr. Luke a mixtape of songs by the two groups in order to demonstrate how she wanted her next record to sound. Perry described the album as "more groove-driven". She added, "When I went on tour, as much as I love all the in-between songs, I felt I was missing some of the stuff that made people bounce up and down."
Perry told MTV News that she wanted to work with producer, Calvin Harris, but it didn't fall through. "We tried to make it happen, but he got really famous so it didn't happen. But there might be some really cool guest appearances by some cool rappers from the West Coast," she added. "I mean, you'll just have to see, since I'm a California girl, you know. And then some best friends might be appearing. ... We'll see! It's going to be fun. It's going to be one of those records that is everybody's favorite guilty pleasure."
During another interview with Rolling Stone after her performance in the 2010 Movie Awards on June 8, 2010, Perry told them, ""Of course, with the music business being in trouble, EMI is thinking I'm gonna make a billion dollars in two months — or that's what they're hoping," Perry continued, "But as much as I want to play that Top 40 game, like the Ke$has, Rihannas and Gagas, I've gotta have more than just a club banger… I think people are wondering, 'What's she gonna say next? What story will she tell?' Not just, 'What's her next hit?'"
Katy Perry previewed songs from the album on June 14, 2010 in an exclusive beach-themed party in New York City. She performed songs like "Teenage Dream", "Peacock", and "Not Like the Movies". When MTV News asked for comments, Perry told them, "It's really exciting to do these little beach party, Katy Perry, Teenage Dream listening parties. It's funner — I love that word that doesn't exist — it's funner to do it in this environment, where it's just free and fun and there's a couple of drinks, people are eating, people are socializing, seeing people they haven't seen in a while. It looks like it's going to be a sleepless year," Perry continued. "It's gonna be really fun. I think we're going to do these type of things, especially for the fans. We're just starting to roll the record out, and it's all beginning again. Although I don't feel like I'm back. I feel like it's a continuum."
Before the official album title was released, the name of the album was thought to be "Summer Starts Now!" since Katy Perry has said the line during a press conference with the addition of several advertisements for the upcoming album included the phrase on it.
The last day of recording was on April 30, 2010 where Perry stated on her twitter and thanked Greg Wells, one of the producers. On May 5, 2010, Perry shot the album cover and sent it to Will Cotton, who she is a fan of and had worked with for the "California Gurls" video, to paint. Perry posted in her own website that she'd revealed the official album cover via live steam-video with Will Cotton, at the Will Cotton's Art Studio. On July 20, 2010 the album cover was revealed for the first time to the people who watched and to Katy Perry herself. She said the album was "art" and that everyone needs a little art in their lives. The album booklet will "stink with the smell of cotton candy" and the artwork wouldn't have any "Katy Perry" logos on it because she wanted to keep it the way it is, an art piece.
When describing the songs on the album, Katy Perry said, "Some songs are pretty sweet, but when you hear the entire album, is quite appetizing. Not only wanted to make music for parties. The people living real lives, work, have relationships. There is a higher proportion and perspective on this album too. Circle the Drain 'is my' You Oughta Know 'by Alanis Morissette. I speak the word' fuck up 'about five times in music, but do not think it will shock people - you always say this when you need it."
The theme song of the album, "Teenage Dream", is considered an electronic ballad with composition quiet and romantic at the same time with sounds made by synthesizer music. "And it was in Santa Barbara that sparked my creativity. It was there that came all the feeling of euphoria in me. Everyone remembers their dreams of adolescence [...] all posters left in the wall of our bedroom, you know", said Perry to MTV News. According to Katy Perry, though "not have much substantive content", "Last Friday Night" conveys a good sense as "I Gotta Feeling of Black Eyed Peas" and was called a new version of "Waking Up in Vegas." "California Gurls" has been written as a response to "Empire State of Mind" by Jay-Z and Alicia Keys, and pays tribute to women, and beaches Lifestyle California state.The song follows the style electropop, containing sounds of synthesizers and some stretches helped by Auto-Tune, which turned it into a "beach theme song," said James Montgomery MTV. She had told Rolling Stone that she felt compelled to create a song about California when he saw some people from American West Coast singing the music of Jay-Z who does homage to New York, and because long ago they did not create something on the state Californian, mostly about the prospect of a girl. "We got some references to Prince, which is always a good reference. In addition, you must reference the house music of the 1990s," Perry said about the major influences of "California Gurls." "Firework" was inspired by the classic book by Jack Kerouac,On the Road , and the singer told the BBC that "the book he talks about how he wanted to be near people were buzzing, efevercendo and making people go like fireworks in the sky". In the song, Katy Perry motivates and inspires people not to be common to excel, and singer told MTV News that "[the song] is real, because he has a great beat, but also has a great message." "Firework" has a musical sequence with violins mixed with house music, and the voice of Katy Perry was called by Chris Ryan MTV Buzzworthy as "an inspirational diva vocals of house music" In "Peacock," Perry said he used puns that will awaken many perspectives on each person. The singer follows a style electro rock in "Circle the Drain," a song in which he criticized the ex-boyfriend and frontman Gym Class Heroes Travis McCoy. Perry commented that her song is like "You Oughta Know" by Alanis Morissette, where she expresses all her feelings of anger and hurt. In "Circle the Drain," the singer vents about addiction remedies, therefore, did your ex-boyfriend to die gradually. In "Who Am I Living For?" Katy Perry expressed about their spirituality and faith, citing the biblical character in music, Esther as inspiration. "Hummingbird Heartbeat" was inspired by the singer's fiance, Russell Brand, which also inspired the song "ET" later. "Not Like the Movies" is a song played by piano music and unique style that follows the romantic ballad "Teenage Dream", the song is a novel that in reality are never equal to the love stories of the great productions film. Due to Music sound, MTV Buzzworthy compared to this song "My Immortal" from Evanescence and "Everytime" by Britney Spears.
