Release and promotion


On 15 December 2021, Alesso and Perry announced the song and released a small snippet of the song and music video via their social media accounts.[2] The song was released on 29 December 2021, the same day that Perry began her residency show Play. The song appears on the setlist of her 2021-2022 Las Vegas Residency, Play, at Resorts World Las Vegas. It is performed with her song "Walking on Air" (from her 2013 album, Prism). On 31 December 2021, her performance of the song (from her residency) was also included as a part of the CNN's New Year's Eve Live special.[3] On 29 January 2022, Perry also performed the song at Saturday Night Live, introduced by Willem Dafoe.[4]


Composition


"When I'm Gone" is a dance-pop,[2] house,[5] and electropop song[6] that runs for 2 minutes and 41 seconds.[7] Alesso said: "I feel like a song like this hasn't been made in a while. The world needs a fun energetic dance record again. We worked on this song for more than a year and are so pleased with how it came out."[8]


Critical response


Justin Curto from Vulture wrote "When I'm Gone" is "another EDM bop" that is similar to Perry's 2019 single "Never Really Over" in cadence and rhythm.[9] 360 said the song blends "high-tech" beats with heartbreaking lyrics, and complimented Alesso's production.[10] Official Charts Company gave a positive review and wrote: "Over a thumping house-beat, Katy says she's 'going to give them everything that they want', and this high-tempo banger will certainly win over a huge swathe of pop fans."[2]

The video was choreographed by Sean Bankhead,[20] and was directed by Hannah Lux Davis.[21] According to Perry it was shot at an active working Budweiser brewery.

Perry wears a custom Dolce & Gabbana purple jumpsuit in the video, describing it as her "favorite outfit".[8] People called it "mesmerising", further saying: "In true Perry style, the video features some stunning costumes and impressive dance moves."[22]
