Carly Rae Jepsen has announced a deluxe version of her cult hit album Emotion for her 5th anniversary with two bonus tracks, “Never Get to Hold You” and “Love Again.”
Both tracks represent the best of Emotion‘s ecstatic synth-pop: “Never Get to Hold You” is a charming dance floor-friendly ballad that explodes on the chorus, while “Love Again” is a bubbly jam about finding love again.
“It was such a joy to share so many wonderful memories from this record with you,” Jepsen wrote on Twitter.

Both tracks leaked online back in 2015, but they have the official one Page B treatment of Jepsen. (In 2016, Jepsen released nine Emotion bonus tracks as Emotion Page B, and she did the same this year for her 2019 album Dedicated.) And if that was not enough for one Emotion birthday party, Jepsen will hold a virtual karaoke party for the album from her YouTube page on Thursday, August 27 at 6pm ET for a virtual karaoke party.
Earlier this week, Jepsen released the single “Me and the Boys in the Band.” That’s what she reported included in an entire album while in quarantine.
