NEW MUSIC - CARLY RAE JEPSEN

I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT CARLY!

After several years out of the spotlight—which was a mixture of her taking time to go on Broadway and her singles “This Kiss” and “Tonight I’m Getting Over You” being largely ignored by radio—one of my favorite Canadians is back! I was starting to get nervous that when she did finally release new music that it would be a disappointment, but come on….Carly wouldn’t do that to us!

“I Really Like You” is a total jam, even if it takes an extra listen or two for you to really get it. I’m impressed that Carly was able to replicate the catchiness of several of her past hits while still maintaining her squeaky-clean, flirty sound. This song is everything it needed to be, even if it never becomes the hit it deserves to be.
