Carly Rae Jepsen Reveals Why Upcoming Record 'The Loveliest Time' Is Her Favorite Album to Date

Carly Rae Jepsen is opening up about her new record, The Loveliest Time, out on Friday (July 28).

The 37-year-old “Run Away With Me” superstar shared a note with fans on Monday (July 24) ahead of the album’s release.

“I wanted to personally thank you for all your love and support over the years. It’s been such a wild ride since The Loneliest Time was released. We travelled to Europe, the USA, Canada, Australia, the Phillippines, Japan, and we are still on the move: NYC, LA, Chicago, South America and beyond! I wanted to wave hi before this follow up album drops (Friday!) and explain what The Loveliest Time means to me,” she began.

“A couple things to say—or excitedly scream about-but simply put, this is my favourite album to date. I couldn’t have made it without your embrace. Each time I create a new project, I feel encouraged to experiment and dream and reach for the moon and this album is the wildest trip yet. Where The Loneliest Time was about embracing the beauty in self discovery, The Loveliest Time is the celebration of all those hard won lessons,” Carly continued.

“The reason I love to put out B-sides is to explore more of the sonic and thematic world I inhabited when writing the album. But mostly it is a passion project from me directly to the fans. Songs like “Kollage” and “Aeroplanes”, the playful, freaky stuff-how gratifying to go there. I hope it hits you where it hurts and makes you want to dance all at once.”
