Carly Rae Jepsenjust released two new songs — and we really like them.
On Wednesday, the pop star, 33, dropped “Now That I Found You” and “Drug Like Me” (listen above and below, respectively). Like recent releases from the Canadian singer, the tracks boast a retro sheen and an earworm hook.
“‘Now That I found You’ is about the high you get when a new love starts to change your life. It’s like the rush, rush, rush is better than any drug,” Jepsen said of the track, which Zane Lowe premiered on Apple Music’s Beats 1 radio. “Which leads me to ‘No Drug Like Me’ which is a promise I made to love in general. That when the good stuff lands my way I’ll always try to be vulnerable and brave and show all of myself — ‘If you make me feel in love then I’ll blossom for you.'”
Both “Now That I Found You” and “No Drug Like Me” will appear on Jepsen’s much-anticipated fourth studio album.

Last April, Jepsen opened up to PEOPLE about howher new albumis coming together, revealing she had about 100 songs to sift through.
“When I was going into the making of the album, there was a real desire for the sort of understated disco. But it’s funny because even with intention to go in one direction, that can always be a jumping point; that doesn’t necessarily end up where we land,” she said. “Sometimes I’ve found that we were able to pull that off and other times it just took, like, left and right turns, and I’m like, ‘Have we made a mambo, what’s going on?'”
