"Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen (f/Erik J Brown)
Release Date: 05/18/2023
Description: Calling the Queen of Bubblegum Pop a one hit wonder just feels wrong. To Carly Rae’s cult following, it feels like she has released hit after hit over the years. A quick internet search of her Billboard chart success, however, reveals the shocking truth… “Call Me Maybe” is really her only mainstream hit. Regardless, here at One Hit Thunder, we know that an incredible and prolific career rarely has anything to do with charts, and Carly Rae Jepsen is no exception to that rule. This week, we’re joined by author Erik Brown to completely fanboy out over one of pop’s most likable artists. If you like the show, be sure to rate, review, and subscribe.
