<P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/perry_katy/artist.jhtml">Katy Perry</a> may already be thinking of what direction she will take on her next album, but before she does that, she wanted to do something special for her fans. On March 26, Perry will release <a href="/news/articles/1677702/katy-perry-teenage-dream-new-tunes.jhtml"><i>Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection</a>,</i> which features all of her songs from her chart-topping album <i>Teenage Dream</i> plus some bonus tracks. </P><P> </P><P>"With <i>Teenage Dream,</i> the reasons why I wanted to put out this special edition, <i>Complete Confection,</i> is two major reasons for me: One, I'm doing it mostly for the hard-core fans because they always love all the extras," Perry told MTV News in Los Angeles. "The second reason I wanted to do it is because it's my one last push, to push that person that is on the precipice of becoming a fan. They're thinking to themselves, 'I bought four or five singles, maybe I should actually complete my album and now I should really complete my album because I'm gonna get 19 songs for a really great price.' I think it's like a bargain and I'm doing it for my fans." </P><P> </P><P><center><embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:744825/cp~vid%3D744825%26uri%3Dmgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.com%3A744825" width="460" height="260" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed></center> </P><P> </P><P>Perry revealed that she wrote several songs that didn't make the cut on <i>Dream,</i> which is why <i>Confection</i> will feature not only Perry's new hit single <a href="/news/articles/1680321/katy-perry-part-of-me-russell-brand.jhtml">"Part of Me"</a> but several other songs, including the Tricky Stewart-produced track "Dressing Up." </P><P> </P><P>"This song is really special. It's called 'Dressing Up,' so it's going to be a big record," <a href="/news/articles/1671985/katy-perry-secret-project-album.jhtml">Stewart told MTV News</a> in October. "It definitely fits. It's right there in what her sensibilities are as a musician and a songwriter. She doesn't change much. She has a very keen musical taste. It'll be really good." </P><P> </P><P>Even though there are several new tracks on <i>Confection,</i> Perry says she is not considering this a whole new album. "I'm really excited and I'm not putting it out there as, like, another album — you know how you find different artists do their version, like eight songs or something. I'm am ready to make a new record, and I <i>will</i> close the book on <i>Teenage Dream</i> soon, but [<i>Complete Confection</i>] just felt really organic." </P><P> </P><P><i>Are you excited for </i>Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection<i>?
