Canadian singer-songwriter Carly Rae Jepsen, also known as the girl who gave us the catchiest of catchy hits in the form of “Call Me Maybe” back in 2011, is back with a new track and it is pretty fantastic. Earlier this week, we mentioned that you were going to really, really like her new single, entitled “I Really Like You.” The upbeat, sunshine-and-flowers vibe of the song is perfect for the impending arrival of Spring.

Almost as pleasantly surprising as the fact that Jepsen will certainly not be filed under “one-hit-wonder” is the fact that Oscar-winning actor Tom Hanks is the focal point of the new song’s music video. In the new video we see Hanks on his way to meet Jepsen, lip-syncing to the entire song and texting using iPhone emojis. Oh, and I guess Justin Bieber‘s there for a little bit, too.

Jepsen will reportedly be putting out a new album this summer via Interscope. Make sure to check back for updates on that. You can catch the adorable new music video for “I Really Like You” below. Let us know what you think.
