Carly Rae Jepsen neemt in 2007 deel aan het vijfde seizoen van de Canadese Idols. Daar eindigt ze als derde. In eigen beheer maakt ze een jaar later haar debuutalbum Tug Of War.

Op haar tweede album Kiss, dat in 2012 verschijnt, staat de single Call Me Maybe. Die single wordt haar eerste hit in ons land en bereikt de tweede plaats. Ook haar samenwerking met Owl City op Good Time wordt een top 10-hit. This Kiss en Tonight I’m Getting Over You worden nog kleine hits in de Top 40 en begin april 2013 staat de Canadese voor het laatst in de lijst.

Na een afwezigheid van bijna twee jaar staat ze in maart 2015 weer in de Top 40 met I Really Like You. De track is de voorloper van haar derde studioalbum. In de bijbehorende videoclip zijn Tom Hanks en Justin Bieber te zien.


Songtekst

I threw a wish in the well, don’t ask me I’ll never tell
I looked to you as it fell and now you’re in my way
I’d trade my soul for a wish, pennies and dimes for a kiss
I wasn’t looking for this, but now you’re in my way

Your stare was holding, ripped jeans, skin was showin’
Hot night, wind was blowin’, where you think you’re going baby

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here’s my number, so call me maybe
It’s hard to look right, at you baby
But here’s my number, so call me maybe

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here’s my number, so call me maybe
And all the other boys, try to chase me
But here’s my number, so call me maybe

You took your time with the call, I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all, but still you’re in my way
I beg and borrow and steal, at first sight and it’s real
I didn’t know I would feel it. but it’s in my way

Your stare was holding, ripped jeans, skin was showin’
Hot night, wind was blowin’, where you think you’re going baby

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here’s my number, so call me maybe
It’s hard to look right, at you baby
But here’s my number, so call me maybe

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here’s my number, so call me maybe
And all the other boys, try to chase me
But here’s my number, so call me maybe

Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad, I missed you so, so bad
Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
And you should know that, I missed you so, so bad

It’s hard to look right at you baby
But here’s my number, so call me maybe

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
But here’s my number, so call me maybe
And all the other boys, try to chase me
But here’s my number, so call me maybe

Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad, I missed you so, so bad
Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad
And you should know that, so call me maybe
