The couple have adopted a swift turnaround for the release of the appropriately-titled I Said I Love You First… And You Said It Back, announcing its arrival only two days prior, on Wednesday (April 30).
“The deluxe version of my album with @itsbennyblanco is called I Said I Love You First…And You Said It Back and it’s out this Friday, 5/2!” Gomez wrote on Instagram. “There are some new songs, some favorites you might recognize, and reimagined songs from the original album. Can’t wait for you to hear them!”
Alongside the original 14-track album, the deluxe version is complemented by an additional eight tracks, featuring unheard tracks, remixes, and collaborations.
These include fresh cuts such as “That’s When I’ll Care,” the Cake-interpolating “Talk,” and the Gomez solo venture “Stained.” Meanwhile, GloRilla is tapped for a remix of “Cowboy” while DJ Sliink offers a new version of “Bluest Flame.”
Gracie Abrams returns for an acoustic version of “Call Me When You Break Up,” and a live Vevo performance of “How Does It Feel to Be Forgotten” also joins the mix. The new set closes out with the dreamy “Guess You Could Say I’m in Love,” a collaboration with Texas shoegaze outfit Cigarettes After Sex.
The pair promoted the new drop by teasing that the video for “Talk” would drop on Thursday night (May 1), encouraging fans to “pick out your prom outfit.”
It arrived just a week after Blanco posted a video on Instagram of the couple going to the mall to get their prom pics taken after revealing that Gomez never got to go to her prom. The video shows Gomez getting ready in a purple ballgown and planting a kiss on her fiancé as they do a classic walk-down-the-stairs dress reveal. In the limo ride to the mall, Blanco excitedly leans out the window of their stretch limo and tells the driver in the lane next to him: “We’re going to prom!”
After first starting dating in mid-2023, Blanco and Gomez got engaged in December last year. In March, they dropped I Said I Love You First, their first joint album as a couple, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200.
