After spending nine weeks at the top of the charts, Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" has finally been knocked down a notch... by Justin Bieber's pride and joy, Carly Rae Jepsen. Her hit song "Call Me Maybe" has managed to lodge itself into enough brains to launch it to the No. 1 spot on Billboard's Hot 100 with 3.3 digital downloads and 108 million YouTube views.

Jepsen isn't new to the music industry, but she's certainly new to fame. The 26-year-old singer-songwriter got her start in 2007 when she got third place on "Canadian Idol," and released her debut album, "Tug of War," in 2008. But she didn't get much air time until fellow Canadian Justin Bieber started tweeting about her latest single, "Call Me Maybe," off her 2012 "Curiosity" EP. The song's catchy hook practically made her career over night. Do you dig the song? (Listen at your own risk: This jam will be in your head all day long.)

    Sorry but EFF this song and EFF it all the way to the fiery brimstone pits beneath the earth of which it came. Along with "Boyfriend" by Justina Beaver.

    THESE songs I hear every damn day on the radio, polluting the sound waves with their noise. Luckily with THIS song it's easy to make up joke lyrics to laugh at it while enduring it!

    call me maybe joke

    It has some cool arrangement elements that lift it out of the pack, but the level of repetition is way over the top, and the content is sophomoric...right on for six-year-olds.
    If they rule the rule, perfect, so be it. For everyone else, it is super-mediocrity personified.
    Just like fast food, robotic compassionless bought-and-sold politicians, and 90% of TV/video featuring lots of fiery crashes, gorgeously sculpted people, inane premises, and anything but reality.
    All of this thriving while out of sight and out of mind, the powers behind the whole wide world continue their perennial war against peace, justice, equality, and community.
    This song even fails to measure up to Vanilla Ice (a.k.a. musical Einstein), when he said: "Stop, collaborate, and listen!"

    I'm not surprised. With todays dumbed down generation of morons, the sound of a dripping faucet set to autotuned lyrics could reach the #1 spot.

    Hey, I just met you,
    And this is crazy.
    I suck at rhyming,
    Show me your tits.

    Hey I just met you,
    And this is crazy.
    But I have no condom,
    So anal maybe?

    It's only good for the jokes about how terrible it is.
