Jimmy Fallon and The Roots sing "Call Me Maybe" with Carly Rae Jepsen
(CBS News) "Late Night" host Jimmy Fallon and his house band The Roots have given the Internet their take on Carly Rae Jepsen's hit "Call Me Maybe" performed with the singer herself.
Jepsen, who was a guest on Fallon's show Thursday night, provides the vocals with Fallon while The Roots use various classroom instruments (bongo, xylophone, melodica) to give the song a whole new beat and feel.
The track has not only been a staple on the radio, but it has been an internet sensation as well. Since its release, everyone from Justin Bieber to Katy Perry has made videos to the song, which is currently No. 1 on iTunes.
