Pop Icon Carly Rae Jepsen Has Shared Her New Single ‘Me And The Boys In The Band’.
The singer began teasing the release earlier this week, sharing hand-written lyrics on social media. A few hours ago the single went live, and it’s a superb, buoyant return, one that breaks free of lockdown shackles.
It’s an ode to life on the road, a life Carly – or anyone else, for that matter – won’t be able to live for some time.
A bubbling pop epic, it speaks of her “adopted brothers” and “romantic relationships good and bad”.
“On the road. That was the life. I miss travel and performing and my band mates who over the years have become my adopted brothers. Through romantic relationships good and bad I have always found myself again in the late-night conversations with my band.”
“Here’s to all the shows we have played and have yet to play. The late-night dancers we turn into on the long bus drives and the tourists we become in the early mornings. Here’s to nostalgia city and keeping close the ones that know you best. Can’t wait for more.”
“Till then a from home ‘pick me up’ song from all of us to you. Me and the boys and the band! Big thanks to Jack Antonoff, Tavish Crowe, Jared Manerika and Nik Pesut for making this jam come together from a distance.”
