The One That Got Away is a song by American recording artist and

songwriter Katy Perry. The song was written by Perry, Dr. Luke, and Max

Martin. The latter two produced the song for Perry's third studio album,

Teenage Dream (2010). The song is a mid-tempo pop ballad about a lost love.

It features a reference to the rock band Radiohead and addresses the

relationship of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash to express the strength of

the relationship.

On September 13, 2011, at the New York City's Irving Plaza, Capitol Records

confirmed to Billboard that "The One That Got Away" would be the sixth single

from Teenage Dream. Perry said in a statement from the label:

"I'm so pleased to select 'The One That Got Away' as my sixth single because

this song shows a very different side of me that I haven't shown with my past

singles on this record, I think that everyone can relate to this song. I

wrote (it) about when you promise someone forever, but you end up not being

able to follow through. It's a bittersweet story.

On September 28, 2011, Katy Perry tweeted the words "The One That Got Away...

It's happening!!!", along with a picture of the official single artwork, via

TwitPic. The artwork shows a pink-haired Perry looking up at the sky while

wearing a disc-shaped hat.
