call me maybe

That haunting string sample sounds good with everything. It's the new Guile's Theme.

We know, we know. You've heard both of these songs a million times before, and not even an adorable mashup of the two by Pomplamoose might keep you from rolling your eyes and saying "UGH, not AGAIN" (did you do that? Be honest!) But this arrangement is executed well enough to be worth your time, and the music video defies the obvious visuals by paying homage to the 2009 thriller "The Box" (or possibly "Button Button" by Richard Matheson, the short story on which the movie was based).

Expert music dubber Andy Rehfeldt released a death metal dub of Carly Rae Jepsen, giving her a br00tal growl that turns the line "So call me maybe" from a request into a threat.

It may or may not be be backhanded way of flirting with the teacher, but any reference to the song that the citizens of Canada, America and the rest of the world can't get out of their collective heads is an automatic A+.

The folks at Key of Awesome have added another video to the towering mountain of "Call Me Maybe" parodies, this time with the spin of a bad one-nighter.

Warning: strong language and explicit sexual content make this mashup oh so wrong, but also OH SO RIGHT.

Hurray! More Call Me Maybe!

Slightly behind the times...but two guitars at the same time! Genius.

Look, we're sorry. You've probably seen at least three "Call Me Maybe" video parodies already, not to mention dozens of jokes and memes, and we're partially responsible for that. But fret not! When supercuts of parodies are made, it's usually a sign that the craze is winding down. So for now it's best to sit back and ride the pop mayhem out.
