4 March 2025 - Carly Rae Jepsen - Cut To The Feeling

Look, it is now a #MapleLeafMarch tradition.

We have to post Carly Rae Jepson.  

She is, after all, Canada's sweetheart. 

Today's feature was an outtake from her 2015 album Emotion.  It got cut from the album for its cinematic over-the-top feeling, but was slated for a follow-up EP. 

Then came the French animated movie Ballerina, which was called Leap in the US. Jepsen was actually a voice actress in that movie, and also contributed the heart of the movie with this song.  

Like the movie, it ended up being a pretty solid hit song for her. 


And yes. The "Lucky Star" sample was intentional. 

She did make a real adult video for the song, too.   


You know we love the live versions.   

But this one is different.  

It's from a Carnival Cruise.

And it's perfect.


I think we all know that she's a singer-songwriter, and that means, she can actually SING her songs, in a stripped down setting, and they still slap.
