NP&CE: Call Me Maybe? business cards

[charminglife]

I love this damn "Call Me Maybe?" song so much that I'm only a little ashamed to admit it in public. But then I read this in Jezebel and laughed out loud. You need to click the link to see the image.

‘Call Me Maybe’ Business Cards Are the New ‘Call Me Maybe’

Just when you thought that Carly Rae Jepson's "Call Me Maybe" had reached its apex (or nadir, depending on how you feel about the meme), the little song that just won't stop finds a new way to infiltrate your life with all of its annoying appeal. Have you received a "Call Me Maybe" business card yet? On one hand, they are sort of charming; on the other, these are exchanged by full-grown adults and "Call Me Maybe" is a song meant for tiny baby tweens (at heart!). We're obviously stuck with Mme. Jepsen's tour de force, so we might as well have some fun with it...maybe.

I hate that song. Probably because it was on the radio here first so we already had it overplayed before bieber made her famous.

I had no idea she had anything to do with JBiebs.

She placed in the top 5 in Canadian Idol or something. Honestly the first time I heard the song was when the Harvard baseball team did their van dance video.

That's the only time I heard it too. I've never heard it on the radio so I don't think it's quite that ubiquitous. At least not in my area anyway.

Thank god. I thought I was all alone in my cluelessness.

This song got a spot on NPR, of all things. For those not in the know, this song is getting a great deal of play because of the video:

Chick in a garage band makes an infectious pop song, in which she laments the oblivion the hottie across the street has relegated her to.

Bandmates encourage her to wash her car while he's outside, so he'll notice her.

Hottie notices, comes over, and gives his number to the (male) guitarist.
And scene.....

Then JB found the video while he was in Canada, and made a You Tube video of himself and his gf kicking it Milli Vanilli. Pop stardom ensues.

That song drives me crazy.
