Carly Rae Jepsen has debuted two new songs, “Now That I Found You” and “No Drug Like Me.” Both songs will appear on her forthcoming new album, due out later this year. “‘Now That I Found You’ is about the high you get when a new love starts to change your life,” Carly says in a statement. “It’s like the rush, rush, rush is better than any drug.” The song was first previewed in a teaser for Netflix’s Queer Eye. Carly says “No Drug Like Me” is “a promise I made to love in general,” adding that the promise is “that when the good stuff lands my way I’ll always try to be vulnerable and brave and show all of myself.” Carly’s last album, the critically acclaimed EMOTION, was released in 2015.

Adam Lambert has released a stripped-down performance of his own new song, “Feel Something.” The singer released a live performance video featuring him singing the emotional tune at Henson Recording Studio in Los Angeles. “Feel Something,” a reflective ballad about love and loss, is a preview of Adam’s upcoming album. The first “official” single from the album is due this spring. In a lengthy message to fans last week, Adam explained the inspiration behind the song: “This was written about me climbing out of the low period, defying my disillusionment, owning my needs, and opening my heart.” He continued, “The life of a bachelor can be a laugh, with plenty of flings, but after a while it starts to feel empty. Between frustrations with my career and many lost connections, I felt numb-and though I wanted to fall in love, I knew I wasn’t ready.” The singer also teased that the track was going to “kick off this new era,” telling his fans that a new album was on the way. “The tracks will chronicle the journey of taking responsibility for my own happiness and strength, and searching for intimacy,” he wrote.
