Call Me Maybe: Chad’s Country-Fried Cover of the Week [Video]
May 22, 2012 About six weeks ago, I started working out every weekday. And, to help me get motivated, I grabbed my IPod and loaded it up with what I consider to be "workout" songs. Upbeat. fun. Pep in their step. The first track on my playlist is the song "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen. (It's the perfect song to run 6 mph to on the treadmill!) You've probably heard it. It recently reached #1 in seven countries and peaked at #4 on the Billboard chart here in the U.S. When I first heard it, I told Jaclyn that she needed to give it a listen. Something about "Call Me Maybe" just screamed out for a "country-fried" version and I thought Jaclyn's band could give it a cool, country-flavored twist. Apparently, I'm not the only one who thought the tune had some bacon grease in it. Check this out! I found an awesome version by a young lady named Emma Rowley, who sat down with her acoustic guitar and cranked it out. Her version of "Call Me Maybe" is my "Country-Fried" YouTube Cover of the Week . . .
