Carly Rae Jepsen New Song 2015: 'I Really Like You' Latest Catchy New Single (VIDEO)

Carly Rae Jepsen, who co-penned and sang the hit single, "Call Me Maybe" has just released a brand new single over the weekend, and the new track, "I Really Like You." It s reported to be catchier than her previous hit.

Canadian pop singer Carly Rae Jepsen has recently put out another single that many fans have described to be as addictive to listen to, if not more so than her 2012 hit "Call Me Maybe."

"I Really Like You" marks the "Canadian Idol" Season Five runner up's first release in three years. The music video for the song, which was shot late last year during one of the coldest winters in New York, features fellow Canadian pop idol, Justin Bieber, and Academy Award winning actor, Tom Hanks.

Earlier in February, photos of Jepsen, Bieber and Hanks appeared in the media and online, showing the three in the midst of filming the music video for "I Really Like You" in New York.

The track's melody appears to have been influenced by the "Call Me Maybe" catchy tune. The blend of cheery pop is interspersed with a simplistic and repetitive, but catchy chorus the likes of which often become subjects of the Last Song Syndrome effect.

Jepsen, 29, is Justin Bieber's protégé, and having using her mentor's influence to boost "Call Me Maybe'" popularity on the charts, Bieber has again come forward to promote the new track.

"Make my artist @carlyraejepsen #1 again!" The newly turned 21-year-old Bieber tweeted on social media over the weekend. "And get ready for the video. Crazy :) @tomhanks."

The reason for the three-year hiatus between songs may lie with Scooter Braun, Jepsen's manager who earlier said he expected the British Columbia native not to release any music unless it was on the same level as "Call Me Maybe."

"I Really Like You" is the first track from Jepsen's soon-to-be-released 2015 album, following 2012's "Kiss."
