will include a whopping 24 tracks — 12 organic, '70s-inspired psychedelic folk pop songs for day, and 12 sleek, synth-driven, '80s-influenced dance pop songs for night — that Jepsen worked on with Tavish Crowe, Kyle Shearer, Nate Cyphert and her husband, producer Cole M.G.N.

Carly Rae Jepsen turned 40 last November

in comparison, Stevie Nicks was 40 when she recorded The Other Side of the Mirror in 1988, and had just turned 41 on it's release in May 1989

Looks like she' giving us the side A and Side B albums at the same time.

I cannot wait for this.

Single is excellent - kind of a smoky vibe, but still has the big euphoric CRJ lift to the chorus.

Song is okay, looking forward to the album.

the clip I saw before listening to the whole song did nothing for me, turns out the song is a lot better as a whole, I really (really x5) like it

Song feels like a good album cycle kick-off. Can't wait to see what else is in store.

ocean breeze of a song

Was trying to consolidate what it is I like about CRJ that makes her one of my favorite artists, and one of the key attributes was that she is breezy.

this is lovely yeah

Great song, like this one much more.

This is gorgeous. I can actually imagine Jessie Ware singing it. The feel and production is very Superbloom.

Wish the album wasn't so far away.

I like the tracks, and also I didn't know she was pregnant. Congrats all around CRJ.

verses sound like a "Young Folks"/"B.Y.O.B." mashup via Tahiti 80 in the best way

(Oh I guess she actually had a baby in March. Video obviously shot earlier.)

This is perfect.

Newest single ('Don't Leave Me On The Dancefloor') feels like late-1970s ABBA to me.

Wonderful

this is fantastic, i love the coda

i was just coming here to say abba

yes

hmm i'm glad she's trying something like this but it's kinda awkward & melodically meandering

loved 'don't leave me on the dance floor.' not a fan of the video, nor the song. sounds like a slogan for a polycule.

yeah, reaction to this one seems to be v mixed but when it comes to queerbait, I much prefer this over that recent Troye Sivan thing

Hmm yeah, I'm not really into this one. The chorus is decent, but the verses and those backing vocals are pretty clumsy. Feels like she's aiming for Jessie Ware's Free Yourself here but missing the mark.

Almost missed this. I actually like this song. Breezy CRJ which I will always adore though probably not a single/video worthy song.
