Carly Rae Jepsen’s ‘Emotion’ Gets the 10th Anniversary Treatment It Deserves (6 New Reasons to Celebrate)..

stayc main image

Carly Rae Jepsen is giving fans the ultimate gift for the 10th anniversary of her critically adored album Emotion: a special edition featuring four never-before-heard tracks and two fresh remixes of the iconic “Run Away With Me.” The announcement, made Wednesday (August 20), confirms the pop visionary’s commitment to honoring what many consider her magnum opus.

What’s New on the Anniversary Edition:

Titled Emotion (10th Anniversary Edition), the release includes:

  • Four new songs: “More” (out now), “Guardian Angel,” “Back Of My Heart,” and “Lost In Devotion”
  • Two remixes: Kyle Shearer and Rostam reimagine “Run Away With Me”
  • Vinyl and digital formats: Available October 17 via Jepsen’s website

 

‘Emotion’ Still Matters

Upon its 2015 release, Emotion transformed Jepsen from a “Call Me Maybe” sensation into a pop auteur revered by critics and fans alike. The album peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard 200 and later earned a spot on Billboard’s “Greatest Albums of the 2010s” list. Tracks like “I Really Like You” and the saxophone-driven “Run Away With Me” became instant classics, cementing Jepsen’s status as a songwriter who blends infectious hooks with emotional depth.

Jepsen’s Continued Evolution

In the decade since Emotion, Jepsen has consistently delivered quality pop with albums like 2023’s The Loveliest Time and its predecessor The Loneliest Time. Yet Emotion remains the project that defined her artistic identity, a synth-pop masterpiece that continues to inspire new generations of listeners and musicians.

Pre-order the anniversary edition now because some things only get better with time.

For an album that taught us all what it means to really, really, really, really, really, really like pop music, this anniversary edition isn’t just a celebration, it's a testament to enduring artistry.
