1. Carly Rae Jepsen – Dedicated

There’s really nothing like the feeling of listening to Carly Rae Jepsen. Not only does she sell her experiences and views on the people in her life, but fully transports you into her world of dopey love songs. Following up the Emotion Chronicles, this album had a lot of hype from her fans and almost no hype from anyone else (only debuted at #18 on the album charts 🙁 . That’s almost perfect though, most people don’t deserve Carly. She is a delicacy only properly appreciated by those willing to take that journey from the ordinary world to the fantastical. These songs, like all of her best, are growers too. The first time through you might think, OK these are some solid pop songs but what else you got? The lure to keep coming back is strong though, impossible to resist. You don’t have to be her lover to understand there is no drug like her. Whether you’re at the start of a romance or at the end, Carly has a tune to boost you up. So she has earned her first #1 album, with a strong possibility to repeat the feat sooner rather than later. She did say she recorded enough material for several albums after all. We want the Sax!
