Okay, so they're not really played at once. But this mashup of Katy Perry, LMFAO, Rihanna, One Direction, Carly Rae Jepsen, and more will make you question whether we aren't just listening to the same song on repeat whenever we turn on the radio.

The U.S. Army Infantry soldiers in Kunar Province, Afghanistan, aren't above having a little fun while stuck overseas, and their "Call Me Maybe" cover is among the best we've seen --  it showcases their day-to-day life for those of us who have no clue.

A sweet note accompanies the video: "See you in just a few more months, and thanks for all your support!"

People who aren't aware of Canadian pop music or the listening habits of Selena Gomez might not know the original version, but I think everyone can agree that this cowbell remix succeeds in perfecting the unperfectable.

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

Are there STILL people who haven't yet been bitten by the latest infectious pop virus? I fear the entire earth is now under the thrall of Queen Carly.

The name of the Mars Rover is the same as Carly Rae Jepsen's EP? That can't be a coincidence.

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.

This joke is sure to appeal to everyone who's a fan of both early '80s comedies and modern flavor-of-the-month pop songs. There are literally dozens of people.
