Two weeks from today on October 21st, Carly Rae Jepsen will unveil her much-anticipated fifth studio album The Loneliest Time as the follow-up to 2019’s acclaimed Dedicated, and today she has delivered the project’s title track. A wistful, propulsive duet with the one-and-only Rufus Wainwright, “The Loneliest Time” follows the previously released singles “Western Wind,” “Beach House” and “Talking to Yourself.”

“If you like 5-part string sections, 4:30+ track lengths, and disco power ballads…you might want to check it out,” Jepsen recently said of her collaboration with Wainwright.

Currently in the midst of her North American “The So Nice Tour,” Jepsen performs at the Austin City Limits Festival today, October 7th. To view her full tour itinerary and purchase tickets, click/tap here, and listen to “The Loneliest Time” below.
