I'm loving her new EP Curiosity. I much prefer this to her debut album.

I bought the EP today! My favorite is now "Picture" followed closely by "Just A Step Away". Such a good EP.

"Curiosity" needs to be the second single. And I love how she's topping the Canadian Hot 100. Good for her!!

US iTunes 45. Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepsen Oh wow. Is that from the Bieber promotion alone? It's at #26 now. :o :o

I was thinking about getting the EP since it's only $6 here. Is it good? I have a soft spot for Carly since her song Tug Of War has some sentimental memories for me. I think the reason why I like Call Me Maybe as much as I do is because it reminds me of Tug Of War. I don't want Carly to change...

Yeah I bought it! It's good, although it's quite different from her debut. In terms of quality, this album is much better than any other CanCon (only) album released in the past few years. Not sure if songs from this EP will also be included on the CD though, probably, as I assume the full length album will be released in Canada at the same time as US.

Was she just on my MTV endorsing Monster Energy drinks? Or was that a different Carly? I literally couldn't tell.

When is the Curiosity EP (or any full-length release featuring "Call Me Maybe") getting released in the US? She's being promoted very poorly here.

She's performing at the Billboard Awards tomorrow!! If she can keep up the momentum with the next single and release her album by September, I think she'll be a strong contender for the "Best New Artist" Grammy.

Curiosity is great! Love it. I just hope it's strong enough to overcome the massive CMM(if they release it, in the states).

Listened to the EP in full, and it's pretty fantastic. It's refreshing but still mainstream, catchy but not overproduced, and accessible but not cheesy. Count me in. :)

And yet we still have no news about a US debut album, besides the fact that CMM and GT are on it..

Well, there's probably nothing from the Curiosity EP, besides CMM and maybe Curiosity. They're basically starting over, to give her the best chance at staying around for the next few years. I think we'll probably hear more in July.

I hope by some miracle they keep Picture on the new album. It's my favorite on the EP, after CMM.

Carly Rae Jepsen's Debut Album 'Almost Finished'
So far, the summer has belonged to Carly Rae Jepsen. Her inescapable smash hit "Call Me Maybe" is sitting high atop the Billboard Hot 100, and she's featured on Owl City's catchy new single "Good Time." But don't expect this new pop star to be slowing down anytime soon: She's putting the finishing touches on her much-anticipated full-length debut album.
"At this point, my record is almost finished. It's pretty close, just wrapping up the loose ends," Jepsen told MTV News at the premiere of Katy Perry's 3-D flick "Part of Me." "I feel like the songs are mostly there, but there's still some production and stuff to be done, but we're close. We're at the home stretch."
Jepsen teamed up with a host of different people for this album, including Fun. producer Steven McDonald, boss Justin Bieber and LMFAO's Redfoo for an upcoming track. Yet with all those people lending a hand, there is still one more person she would love to collaborate with. "I love collaborating. It's a good way to get a new sort of song; two heads are better than one," Jepsen said. "In the future one day, dreaming big here, Katy [Perry] is amazing, that would be pretty cool."
Jepsen revealed that the album would be released right before she hits the road as Bieber's opening act on the Believe Tour, which kicks off September 29. Jepsen is eager to be a part of this upcoming tour since she was able to experience life on the road with Bieber for a few concerts.
"Since having a little taste of a couple shows — Mexico City, 300,000 people — it's not normal. It was really fun, though," Jepsen said. "It was a little overwhelming, but it was also, there was a moment when I kind of lost it and then I stopped and I realized they were all singing my song, like, word for word."

^ Between her, Mumford & Sons, and No Doubt, 9/25 could end up being the first week where I buy three brand-new albums!
