Emotion received positive reviews from contemporary music critics, who praised its pop escapism, but were divided over its lyrical content. Despite positive reception, the album underperformed worldwide, debuting at number sixteen on the Billboard with 16, units and number eight in Canada with 2, copies.
The album fared better in Japan, debuting at number eight with 12, physical copies sold and subsequently being certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of Japan RIAJ for shipments exceeding , copies. The album was preceded by the release of its lead single, 'I Really Like You', which reached top five in several territories including the United Kingdom and Japan.
It was followed by 'Run Away with Me' and 'Your Type', the former of which found renewed interest as an internet meme.
Jepsen embarked on the Gimmie Love Tour in support of the album in November , with a second leg commencing in February In lieu of commercial success, Emotion reinvigorated Jepsen's career as an 'indie darling' for older audiences, garnering her a cult following.
A companion EP entitled Emotion: Side B was released on its first anniversary and features eight songs that were cut from the original project. Following the sudden worldwide success of 'Call Me Maybe' in , Jepsen found that the song had become '[this] huge, ginormous thing that really overshadowed the rest of our project' and further singles issued from Kiss failed to gain traction.
She met with her record label and management after The Summer Kiss Tour wrapped up in late , stating: ' 'I want you to put your faith in me that I'll come back when it's ready,' and they did and I'm very lucky to have a team that wasn't about trying to mass produce things and was really more looking at the quality of it. Jepsen spent time regrouping; searching for a 'detour' that came to be in the form of a Broadway role: 'I thought, how amazing would it be to take a left turn, somehow, and still come back to this?
With help from guitarist Tavish Crowe, Jepsen began emailing artists she admired to see if they were interested in collaborating, including Tegan and Sara, Rostam Batmanglij of Vampire Weekend and Shellback.
Under the pressure of matching 'Call Me Maybe ' 's success, Jepsen recorded an entire indie-folk album during her run on Cinderella as an act of 'rebellion'. I needed to get that out of my system, I think. I made really weird music.
I realized you can't give in to other people's perception of you. Everyone's gonna be known for something. I feel like if you're writing music just to have a different identity in the public's eye, it's sort of the wrong motive. It's gotta be coming from a place of what you love and what you're passionate about.
Due to her dissatisfaction with Kiss 's constrained timeframe of two months, [21] Jepsen went into Emotion with the intent of crafting a project that was authentic and allowed her to approach different avenues. In music today, everything is a little more coy, but I wanted that romance and that fantasy, and I think that a lot of people [my] age do.
An epiphany came to Jepsen after finishing 'Emotion', the album's title track, where she found that a s pop sound, combined with a more 'alternative' production, was what she had been seeking. Jepsen combed through Dev Hynes' discography after becoming infatuated with 'Losing You' by Solange, to which she found his name listed in its production credits. He was eventually 'won over' by Jepsen's demonstration of her vocal ability and work ethic, and credited her with genuine intentions of '[developing] a new aesthetic' versus pursuing 'Pitchfork-approved artists' for the sake of indie credibility.
