About This Track
“Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” is a song by American recording artist Katy Perry. The song was written by Perry, Dr. Luke, Max Martin and Bonnie McKee, and was produced by Dr. Luke and Max Martin. It is the fifth single from Perry’s third studio album, Teenage Dream by Capitol. “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, making Teenage Dream the second album in history to achieve five #1 singles on the Hot 100 chart, only behind Michael Jackson’s “Bad”. In addition, it made it to # 49 on the Canadian Hot 100 because of digital sales.
Background
Perry has revealed that she was inspired to write the track after running naked through a park. According to Music Rooms, Perry claims that after a wild night of partying and streaking, she wrote the song about her antics the next day. Perry revealed: “There’s nothing better than an impromptu dance party with my friends. My track Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) is a song about debauchery because I had one of those nights in Santa Barbara. We went out to this place called Wildcat and got crazy,” Perry admitted: “We had a couple of beers and danced until we died, then brought the party back to the hotel room.” She added: “Most of that song is actual truth, apart from the ménage à trois… unfortunately! But, yes, streaking in the park, that’s what we did, so we had to write a song about it the next day!” Bonnie McKee, the co-writer of the song stated “TGIF is pretty much a word for word description of our trip to Santa Barbara , so I love that one. It’s really kitschy and fun and makes me nostalgic.”

It seems that when I got over my hatred of party/club music, this song has gotten a whole lot better. It is nice that I don't have it beaten into my head by an obnoxiously loud stereo every Friday and Saturday. I officially take back all the bad things I have said about this song.
