Carly Rae Jepsen • Kiss

when I needed you sounds like a demo only diehard stans should know about, I have no idea what people find appealing about it

you're mental

I mean if you don't want to punch the air the first time she launches into "sometimes I wish that I could CHANGE" then idk

Carly Rae Jepsen. Fuck... This is what music is supposed to be. And, I'm not even Geir. Jeez.

Big in Japan

Black Heart is pretty dud though

"when i needed you" is like a reengineered "you're not the one" and the lyric is crazy intricate for a love/breakup song imo

yeah its totally YNTO! same drums and progression.

idgi sorry. it is an unpleasantly boring song to me. the only part that isn't is the little "you come to me" bit. I can't get past the melody on the rest of it.

Black Heart was kind of my way in to this album, it's a great track but admittedly does the least service towards the album as a whole

and technically it's a bonus track but w/e

I like black heart when I actually listen to it I just never feel compelled to listen to it, esp when idjchtd is right there

I listened to this album in 2015.

would love a Sky Ferreira version of black heart

yo i'll be going to the noise pop show at the warfield

same

i am considering it

this album's good. lots of the melodies redolent of tom petty, interestingly enough. is this a stated influence?

'when i needed you' = 'don't come around here no more' too

how many EMOTION songs did you put on your P&J singles ballot? how many did you kinda want to?

(1 and 4 for me)

iTunes couldn't recognise the album when I tried to rip the CD this morning, so I had to type in all the info and manually add the cover art. I'm sure it's just an issue with my machine, but it feels symbolic somehow.

finally bought this on the weekend, goddamn i love it

Finally managed to track down a copy of Kiss of vinyl, only took me a couple of years.

I've decided to go to the Gimmie Love tour a second time, because fuck it

I have listened to Emotion on repeat every day since Saturday

there's no songs I hate! i am sometimes meh about Boy Probs but it comes and goes

LA Hallucination chorus is so addictive

being meh about Boy Problems is not acceptable

I hope she comes back to the UK, one-off London show was stunning.

*sometimes* meh, jeez

the thing about boy problems is the way that somewhere around the midway point it has, before you know it, become a kind of psychedelic fugue that fractals in and out of itself

^^^^ hm yes

crj has recorded the theme song for the upcoming sequel to full house

she's kinda throwing everything at the wall right now, huh?

here's hoping we get an entire album of full house theme songs

Carly Rae Jepsen Presents Too Many Cooks.

I hope she comes back to the UK, one-off London show was stunning.

Will definitely be with you when that happens this time big dawg

i was there!!

There are so many good things about Boy Problems:

- The 'nah-nah-nah-nah-nah's
- The baseline! The fucking baseline!
- The fact it should have been bigger than 'Get Lucky'
- The 'DUN! DUN! DUN!' just before the chorus
- The satisfying syncopation(?) of the backing vocals after she sings 'worse problems...' (something about 'my boyfriend')

"When I Needed You" is I think in my top 3 now. It sounds like Chvrches!

I want to put half this album on my ILX ballot :(

that's why there's an albums ballot!

I know but if I am legit ranking my top 25 songs of the year, like 6 of them are on this record

'when i needed you' was a massive singalong highlight of the london show, felt like everyone had loved it for years and years

idk if I will ever get over having to sell my CRJ tickets to follow thru on a promise to take my friend to see Shamir

ouch

wtf why didnt anyone tell me a chicago show got announced

sold out within 20min ):

stub hub going for $125/ea now

lol the Philly show didn't sell out at all, even the day of

OMG SHE'S PLAYING NYC AND WE'RE GOING TO GO SEE HER IN NYC OMG OMG FLIPPING OUT

i might have an angle on free tix for her L.A. show

btw this album is great

yeah i'm a bit late on this but great record
