Latest single from Carly Rae Jepsen, a finalist from Canadian Idol and resident CanCon AC/Hot AC stalwart. This song is actually more pop/CHR friendly than her other songs. I've like all her other singles, too.

Looooove the video.
This song is on the playlist where I work so I hear it all the time, but I enjoy it. She's cute. I like this direction more than her original acoustic sound to be honest.

#3 on Canadian iTunes, and has been Certified Gold. Much of this success is thanks to Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez tweeting that they like the song!!

Does this have any chance of being #1 on the Canadian Hot 100? It's been #1 for a few days now and it must be getting substantial airplay since it's CanCon. It would be the first Canadian #1 since Wavin' Flag if I recall.

^^ Unfortunately I don't think so. The song is at #8 on Hot AC and #14 on AC, but way down at #31 on CHR. I'm not sure how much clout digital sales has on the Canadian HOT 100. But the song's popularity bar is still far ahead of #2 on iTunes. Definitely top 5 though, probably #3 I'll guess. It's at #9 right now on the Canadian Hot 100.

Thanks to recent praise from both Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez, the song vaults 20-6-1 on the Sales chart.

I don't mind this song if I don't pay too much attention to the lyrics. The melody and her voice sound nice, but the lyrics leave a lot to be desired. I'm surprised that it's doing so well. I figured it'd perform similarly to a lot of CanCon, but it's actually become a big hit in its own right. Good for her.

The clips are up on iTunes for her album "Curiosity" (release date: Feb 14th), and wow! I can't believe how much I like it. I will definitely be buying it. Standouts for me from the clips: Curiosity, Dear Julien, Talk to Me and of course Call Me Maybe.

Thought I should post it here too, Call Me Maybe has officially peaked at #1 on the Billboard Canadian HOT 100 Singles Chart! Congratulations Carly.

Wow! She must be the first CanCon act to do that in a long time.

Glad to see a "real" Canadian act top the Billboard Canadian Hot 100. It seems like the only time Canadians top their own chart is when they're big in the U.S. and supported by a large American label. Congrats to Ms. Jepsen :)

Wow! She must be the first CanCon act to do that in a long time. Young Artists for Haiti were the last Canadian to top the hot 100, but in terms of strictly CanCon acts, it was Nikki Yanofsky's "I Believe". I can't believe that this has done so well. Good for her, though.

Well it looks like Justin Bieber liked her and Scooter Braun signed Carly to Schoolboy Records. Now how long until this blows up internationally?? Good for her, she deserves it... great artist.

Yup. Also, this has been certified 2x Platinum today. Her EP has been #2 on iTunes album chart all week. Only Adel is ahead of her (thanks a lot Grammys lol). I bought the physical copy yesterday! It's really good. My favorite track is probably Picture. I also really like the Joni Mitchell cover.

This is currently #28 on US iTunes! I guess that video is having a big impact so far.
