“Kamikaze” is a song recorded by Canadian singer-songwriter Carly Rae Jepsen that serves as the second track of her 2023 project, The Loveliest Time, which is mostly composed of songs that didn’t make it into her fifth studio album, The Loneliest Time, released back in 2022.
In an interview with Variety, Carly Rae Jepsen says that "“Kamikaze” is a fun one for me. Human nature is such that when there’s this idea that you could cause a little chaos to your life, but it’ll be fun, it’s hard not to press that button. It’s this idea that you’re traveling, and you come in for the weekend, and you see somebody whom you could cause chaos to — or you could just be good and not tell him you’re in town. Generally, we press that button. So this idea that it’s like, “I’m going to come in, I’m going to blow up both of our lives.” I like the idea that it ends in flames, but we’re going to do it anyways. We’ve all been there, I’ve been there. There’s even eye contact you make with yourself in the mirror as you’re getting ready to go to that person, and you’re like, “This is a bad idea. But somebody stop me, because I cannot be stopped!” Any extreme emotion like that, I’m always excited to try to put music to it. So that’s what “Kamikaze” is about. That was one that started in Zoom with Jack & Coke, who are two Swedish producers that I love and have worked with in the past."
