Meaning of “365”by Zedd and Katy Perry
The titular “365” refers to the days of the year. In other words, an average year consists of 365 days. And in this track, Katy Perry (with the help of Zedd) takes on the role of a lover who desires to be with her sweetheart during every single one of them.
So in that regard, this track is centered on Katy’s affections for her beau. This includes hopeful expectations that the relationship will prove to be more than just “a fling”. Indeed there is even indication that Katy is conceptualizing marriage. Such reasoning seems logical considering that she admits her sweetheart is not only on her mind daily but also every hour and second of every day. As such, she is asking for a comparable commitment from her partner, one in which his physical presence will match the persistence of her mindfulness for him. To put it differently, she wants him to be “the one” whom she actually settles down with.
