This is where I wake up and it's 2012, Barack Obama is still president, Trump was just a bad dream.

If I have to give up E-MO-TION and Side B for this I'll make that trade.

E-MO-TION and Side B are my favorite pop album of the past several years. Melody! In pop songs! It's like a new invention!

Can I just like grab "Store" and "Boy Problems" before we jump in the time machine? Please?

Weekend on All Things Considered's Guy Raz talked to Jepsen for Saturday's show. And she tells him that the weirdest place she's heard her hit was at an Atlanta strip club:

Ugh now I'm just cranky that I've never gotten to go to a strip club with Carly Rae Jepsen.

Holy shit, if Cut To The Feeling isn't the song of the summer, I don't know what is.

Could this be peak liberalism? It's in strong contention against "teaching Nigerian scammers to code".

Mod note: Couple things deleted. Folks, whatever your prevailing frustrations with NPR under the current circumstances may be, please think twice about whether a thread about a five-year-old piece of goofiness about a pop song is the place to vent spleen about it. There are other threads.

And then there's Ryan Louder's Piano Variation which is entirely probably not what you think it is.

You kiddos can google "land line" to find out what that is.

I wish NPR (this part of NPR) were a country and that I could live there.

2012? 812 called and Egbert was still King of Wessex. The Danes were just stock characters to scare little children.
