It’s the endlessly viral song that won’t seem to die. President Obama is the latest to join in on the “Call Me Maybe” trend. The President unknowingly performs the song via a clever mashup from YouTube channel baracksdubs. This isn’t the first time Obama’s appeared in a spoof of “Call Me Maybe.”

Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe” has taken on a life of its own and inspired multiple re-imaginings and spin-offs. The trend of college sports teams performing the crazy catchy song started with the Harvard baseball team. Soon, sports teams all over were joining in.


Other memorable renditions included the quirky video from the Miss USA contestants and Donald Trump.

There seems to be no end in sight for “Call Me Maybe.” How do you want to see the catchy pop song re-incarnated next?
