It looks like Carly Rae Jepsen’s E•MO•TION isn’t done being one of the most important pop albums of the past decade. On Thursday, August 21, the Canadian singer released one of four vault tracks, “More,” off the 2015 album in celebration of its 10th anniversary.
Jepsen is fresh off the sold-out EMOTION 10th anniversary show at the Troubadour in West Hollywood, California, where she performed songs off the original album and its extended version, as well as B-sides like “Cry” and “Fever.”
On Instagram, she posted a video of herself and friends dancing to tracks off the album, including hits like “Run Away With Me,” “I Really Like You,” “Boy Problems,” and the titular “Emotion.” But towards the video’s end, she also teases one of four new songs set to be included in the album’s 10th anniversary edition, set for full release on October 17.
“10 years of EMOTION, and there might be something More,” Jepsen wrote in the caption, before directing viewers to the link in her bio.
The artist’s website shows that the anniversary album features a total of six new bonus tracks, including two remixes of “Run Away With Me” and vault tracks “More,” “Guardian Angel,” “Back of My Heart,” and “Lost In Devotion.”
With the anniversary release, Jepsen cements EMOTION as the cornerstone of her work, marking the transition from the “Call Me Maybe” one-hit wonder to cult pop auteur with a following of gays and music nerds. And you can bet that this October, fans will find new reasons to fall back in love with Jepsen’s glittering, synth-driven, career-defining record. For those of us who’ve kept E•MO•TION in rotation all these years, the idea of hearing “new” songs from that world feels less like a throwback than a gift we didn’t know we were still waiting for.
