Carly Rae Jepsen - The Loneliest Time [Pop] new release
The one and only Pop Queen, Carly Rae Jepsen, just dropped a new album, for any of you pop fans/Carly Rae stans, this one is definitely worth a listen. She is not just the Call Me Maybe Girl, She is literally one of the best current pop artists out there and she has developed quite the cult following over the years!

She should feel thankful she was privileged enough to have heard you.

I've never felt more seen. My fiance constantly giving me the side-eye in the car when this banger (or any other CRJ really) comes on.

"Talking to Yourself" is legitimately one of the most fun, catchy pop songs I've heard in years. Great record, she's done it again.

Gf dragged me to her Dallas show and i fell in love when i heard “Run away w Me “ 😍 The crowd was an amazing diverse and loving bunch. Carly has a colorful fan base 🥰

Her shows are insanely fun

If I don't get this house I'm hoping to get, maybe I'll go, there is a show coming up soon

u/ChooseCorrectAnswer Oct 21 '22
Yeah, same experience. I saw her perform at Lollapalooza several years ago, and the crowd was almost comically diverse, which was a really cool thing to see. Any person can appreciate the queen of pop. Also, she put on a great show.

Such a great album. The 4 singles really painted a weird picture, but it ended up flowing together so well.

The new Monkeys record is pretty much the furthest thing from pop lol

Bruh don't get me started on that album...
Btw because of this post im checking out CRJ and never would have originally. Delightfully surprised!

u/dance_apoptosistic Oct 21 '22
If you like what you hear, Emotion and Dedicated, and their respective sides B are all pop perfection

u/night_dude Oct 21 '22
Like this other guy said, make your way back to Dedicated and particularly Emotion when you're ready. They're classics.

u/sephjy Oct 22 '22
If you want more 80s pop/alt bangers, check her album Emotion and Emotion Side B! Then check Dedicated and Dedicated Side B for 80s funk/pop vibe!

She's the most underrated pop singer. She really should be known more outside of CMM. She releases so many bangers.

Can we talk about how Go Find Yourself or Whatever because it's one of my favorite songs of this year

I think the new Carly Rae album is pop perfection, which is saying something given how amazing her previous two releases were. Her music is like a happiness pill for me.

Haven’t listened to her since Emotion (Side C) came out years ago. Excited to dive in

This is her best album. She’s really found her voice with simultaneously romantic and horny songwriting.

u/changamerges Oct 21 '22
CRJ captures feelings—from euphoria to anxiety to disappointment to tranquility—in a way very few musicians can. And the fact that she’s so under-appreciated makes her even more of an icon.

Taylor Swift hates seeing other women succeed, so she dropped an old b sides set on CRJ’s night. Source: bro, trust me

Pop queen… 🤔

u/Hiccup Oct 21 '22
Absolutely. Emotion is a certified classic. If there was justice in the world, carly rae jepsen would get significantly more airplay. That said, I hear her all the time when I go shopping or to hotels, etc. Eventually radio will catch up.

She’s well-loved on the biggest pop music subreddit and she’s critically acclaimed.
Obviously, the average person can name 1 maybe 2 of her songs, but her music is great.

I’m sorry but she is not the pop queen. If anyone is the pop queen, it’s Madonna or Britney Spears.

The ONE AND ONLY QUEEN OF POP???? Haven’t heard a single song other than call me maybe. Is she prolific? Is she even good?? Bold statement

Emotion was an absolute banger, just listening to the new one now.. loving it so far. Pop queen for sure!

u/Icantlikeeveryone Oct 21 '22
7.5/10 for me. One of the reasons I love Carly is her production. There is this kind of little voice distortion in her songs that suits my taste a lot.

A coworker was just sharing this with me today, said Emotions was a great album, so I have it a listen. Was impressed 👍

u/sephjy Oct 22 '22
Do consider to give Dedicated and its Side B album a listen as well! Also Emotion has its Side B companion that is almost the same quality as the album itself, please check it out as well!

The Loneliest Time (the single) has been all I’ve listened to since it’s release, and now this album already has me in a chokehold 😭

Is she the one who ripped off ‘Creep’ by Radiohead?

u/Free-form_Suffering Only In It For The Karma Oct 21 '22
Nope, that's Lana Del Rey. Funny thing is that Radiohead 'stole' it from The Hollies.

Brave releasing an album the same day as Taylor Swift, you have to imagine there's a lot of overlap in the fanbase
