Data Insight
The Loveliest Time is fully self-authored, with Jepsen co-writing all twelve tracks drawn from the same prolific sessions that produced The Loneliest Time. Patrik Berger and Rostam Batmanglij are her most frequent collaborators here, alongside Noonie Bao, Kyle Shearer, and Nate Cyphert. "Shy Boy" interpolates Midnight Star's 1986 single "Midas Touch," which adds its writers to that track's credits.
A companion album to The Loneliest Time, featuring tracks recorded during the same sessions. Continues Jepsen's synth-pop and dance-pop sound with a warmer, more celebratory tone.
