Got that someone special to spend today with? Broken hearted? Strong, independent woman? Whatever your mood is on Valentine's Day, it's the perfect day to spend it with Carly Rae Jepsen. From love to heart break, she always sets the perfect mood for a February 14th playlist to jam to.

From her humble beginnings as the 3rd place winner on Canadian Idol, to her small debut album Tug of War, onto the explosive rise with Call Me Maybe, to the universally acclaimed E•MO•TION, Carly Rae has had quite the rise from small beginnings to the current queen of pop.

Jump into her discography and you will find something for any mood.

I fully support this thread and can vouch for how awesome Carly's music is.

 

[Yohane]

Love me some Carly 😘

 

[Grizzlyjin]

I approve this message. E•MO•TION Side B is more 80s than the 80s, in all the best ways.

 

[TWrecks310]

When I clicked on this I didn't know what it was about but I am totally here for a Carly Rae appreciation thread.

Go listen to Emotion and Emotion Side B, they're great!

 

[Krixeus]

Nice thread. Could use some CRJ today

 

[Erv]

Ummmm.ok

 

[Servbot24]

Good thread <3

 

[InfiniteBento]

E•MO•TION Side B is fucking great

 

[xaosslug]

literally, why?

 

[DiipuSurotu]

In the first ten posts I love how you can immediately see who is actually familiar with Carly's great music and who only knows her from Call Me Maybe and Friday.

And those that are Taylor Swift fans...

Saw her live with no shame. She's great!

I've seen her live twice, one which was this past summer at Pitchfork Music Festival. She puts on such a great show and people were really into her set. She has a very substantial and loyal fanbase.

 

[Illusive_Juan]

Boy problems is #6 on that list.

 

[Sanjaaaaaaaay]

Someone post blood orange - better than me video. That is phenomenal !

 

[Poor GRIMES]

literally, why?

Yeah

EMOTION was pretty overrated by the pop community, Art Angels was better

 

[Kinsei]

Eh, I'll stick with Sea of Love.

i listen to i didnt just come here to dance before I go to bars

That song and Grimes aren't really comparable to what Carly Rae Jepson does, and what makes her music the perfect companion to Valentine's Day.

I can't speak for Sea of Love, I love Grimes but she really doesn't make music I would listen to on Valentine's Day. Not sure what your point was other than to try and drag Carly.

 

[Certinty]

Great thread. Carly's music is truly amazing, just a shame that as well as Emotion was critically praised, many didn't care about it.

 

[Alfebit]

This is my favorite thread

 

[DOWN]

KISS and E•MO•TION are both packed with upbeat pop gold

This Kiss

So good

Her rise with Call Me Maybe made people believe she was a one hit wonder with little talent. It still amazes me that she put out a b-sides album that was the same quality, if not exceeding, her critically acclaimed album E•MO•TION.

 

[pokeystaples]

Killer thread and I agree with everything in it. Also, you have chosen my gym jams for the day.

 

[SoundsOfScience]

Emotion and it's b-sides are classics. Baffled that a tune like Higher didn't get on the proper album.

Saw her live with no shame. She's great!

Same dude, she puts on a great show! Not gonna lie though, felt a bit like a Disney channel show concert when she did her earlier stuff lol

 

[botty]

Wanna bone to warm blood tonight.

 

[jetles]

E•MO•TION Side B Is great &#128077;

 

[Mindlog]

Every time I read or hear her name that imagery of Ayoade pops in my mind.
*reference

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

Never listened to any of her besides Call Me Maybe, but Emotion Side B looks very 80's so I'll throw that into my playlist for my commute home.

 

[Spine_Ripper]

/mu/ vouches for Side B, so no, this isn't PopGAF being PopGAF

Maybe I'll listen later. Probably not.

 

[Plywood]

I appreciate this thread.

 

[farisr]

So having ignored her music for years now after getting annoyed by Call Me Maybe, I checked out Emotion Side B and have had it playing in the background over the last 20 minutes or so. Haven't disliked a song so far. Edit: never mind, do not like Store, that is playing right now.

Will check out her other stuff.

 

[Falchion]

Way ahead of you OP, it's always a great time to jam out to some CRJ. I really hope 99¢ Dreams comes out this year.

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

It is really great.

I don't think anyone really likes Store.

 

[SeanC]

I go running while listening to Side B. Feels good, man.

 

[Mutant]

She just did a Target ad with little yachty and it's pretty alright.

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

Is this what pop gaf does on valentines day?

 

[kitchenmotors]

I don't think anyone really likes Store.

Store is one of my favorites.

It's such a great, catchy little tune. And it actually has some meaning behind it, if you listen to the lyrics.

Is this what pop gaf does on valentines day?

I'm not PopGAF, and what is wrong with making a fun music thread?

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

I don't think anyone really likes Store.

Store is great!

 

[Testicular Sound Express]

My problem with CRJ is her voice. The productions are nice, but her voice makes all the songs sound like a Kidz Bop version of something much better.

 

[ZeoVGM]

literally, why?

What are you confused about? O_O

 

[kamineko]

did she make that heart gif? I like that

 

[Rembrandt]

No, it's not.

 

[Galang]

Good thread

Art Angels is better than pretty much everything, but it also has a specific vibe too it. For Valentine's Day EMOTION is easily the best choice

 

[Etzer]

This is a good thread.

 

[Tain]

she's also great in this:
