'I Really Like You'really could only ever be sung by Carly Rae Jepsen. It’s in the small lyric details that make it sound a good deal more mature than it seems (“how’d we get in this position” or “sipping on your lips”), the endorphin-rush chorus built on the simplest of ideas, and the edge-of-breathless delivery that captures the dizzying feeling of a crush. The comments section will percolate with sneers (“Isn’t she a bit old for this?”), but what they don’t understand — and what Carly Rae does — is that we’re never really done growing up, and that falling in love can feel just as exhilarating in your late 20s as it does in your teens."
This song is feeling so intensely that you overflow into really-really-reallys like a baroque run — wanting more words in the chorus is like wanting more words in the Hallelujah Chorus.
honestly if there's anything to be learned from these reviews it's that I Really Like You haters don't get pop and probably hate women

This has me wondering, did theneedledrop ever rihview the album?
It's crazy how hard Drake eclipsed Nicki when they debuted together, and Pink Friday was even bigger than Thank Me Later.
Now he's outselling her album in 1 week, Hotline Bling was bigger than any Pinkprint single, One Dance will be bigger than any of her singles ever, and now he's more global than her (his tour will also crush every tour she's done).
