The lead single, "Call Me Maybe", was released on
September 21, 2011 and was produced by Josh Ramsay of Marianas Trench and
co-written by Jepsen, Ramsay and Tavish Crowe. "Call Me Maybe" is the
first song by a Canadian artist to reach the top of the digital chart since
Justin Bieber's “Baby” in January 2010. It is also only the 11th song by a
Canadian artist to reach No. 1 on the Digital Songs chart since Nielsen SoundScan
began tracking digital download sales in 2005. The song has also peaked at No.
1 on Billboard's Canadian Hot 100, being the 4th Canadian artist to do
so, after Avril Lavigne's "Girlfriend", Nikki Yanofsky's "I
Believe", and the Young Artists for Haiti version of "Wavin' Flag",
originally by Canadian rapper K'naan. Jepsen is currently touring on the Shout
it Out World Tour. She is the opening act for the pop-rock trio Hanson. In
February 2012, Jepsen visited Justin Bieber and Scooter Braun in Los Angeles, California,
where she subsequently signed to School Boy Records and Interscope. Her music
will still be distributed by 604 Records in Canada. On March 23, 2012, Jepsen
made her first American television debut on The Ellen DeGeneres Show,
performing "Call Me Maybe" (with Jared Manierka on keys), later
joined by Justin Bieber. Carly was also the first Canadian Idol
contestant to enter the UK charts, when Call Me Maybe debuted at number one.Listen song here:YouTube
