Probably not my absolute favorite, but when Call Me Maybe came out, I loved all the videos with groups lip synching the song - the Harvard baseball team, Missy Franklin and several Olympians, etc. Summer should be FUN and so should the music.
Oh wow. When I worked agency side this used to be my pre-heading-out-to-pitch song 😂 I had no idea about the history but I guess it wasn’t just me who felt that performance kinda energy
I especially love this quote from Gryner: “It’s unreal to me that they’d embrace another artist’s take on their massive signature song. It shows what sort of people they are — creative and open and daring."

Yes! I was just watching the video of the US swim team lip syncing to that!
Summer songs should feel like be ice cream for the ears. 😉

Thanks, Holly!
Yes, that is still fondly referred to as "The Stripper's Anthem."
I can believe it!
