Trivia

Interesting facts about This Is How We Do. By Songfacts.

This 1990s New Jack Swing-influenced dance track is a girls night out anthem that pays tribute to those ladies who party all night. Perry called it "the sequel to 'Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.).'" The lyrics also reference La Super Rica, Perry's favorite taqueria in her Santa Barbara hometown.


The song was produced by Klas Åhlund, who was the man behind the boards on the Prism track, "Walking On Air." The Swedish producer is best known for his collaborations with the synthpop singer Robyn, but he has also worked with Britney Spears ("Piece Of Me") and Kesha ("Blow").


Perry explained in a tweet that the inspiration for this song was: "My OG crew, our parties & my hometown Santa Barbara."
