Call Me Maybe was released by Carly Rae Jepsen in 2012 and became one of the most recognisable pop choruses of the decade, which is why it remains a frequent target for covers and parodies. This version was created by a fan using Sonauto AI to generate new vocals, then combining them with the song's familiar instrumental rather than recording a traditional cover. AI parody songs like this spread mainly through short-form video and meme pages, where the contrast between a polished pop backing track and an obviously synthetic voice makes the joke work instantly.
About this sound
An AI parody vocal set to the Call Me Maybe instrumental, giving the familiar pop chorus a funny, off-kilter twist for memes, edits and reaction videos.
This clip pairs a synthetic, AI-generated vocal performance with the bright, instantly recognisable instrumental of Call Me Maybe, so the melody feels familiar while the delivery sounds slightly uncanny and deliberately over-the-top. The singer hits the same bubbly pop phrasing and chorus hooks, but the artificial tone, odd emphasis and polished-yet-robotic texture make it land as a joke rather than a straight cover. Played over a video, it creates a moment of confused recognition: viewers expect the original hit, then realise something is charmingly off, which makes it perfect for ironic edits, punchlines and light-hearted parody moments.
