The symbolic video shows Perry turning anger into a purge of past toxicity as she follows up November’s “Bandaids.”
- On Thursday, Katy Perry released her new single 'Watch It Burn,' serving as a thematic follow-up to her November 2025 song 'Bandaids.' The track explores her journey from suppressed emotion to self-empowerment.

- Having previewed the track in Spain and at Rock in Rio Lisboa, Perry continues channeling personal experiences into her music, focusing on self-discovery and wrestling with her darkness as she moves forward.
