As a fellow Davis student and reader of The Aggie, I would just like to thank you for your column published last Wednesday on “the crowning achievement of the human race.” As a heterosexual, 6’5”, well-built male, I agree with Mr. Verderosa 100 percent on the musicality and overall brilliance of Carly Rae Jepsen’s breakout hit, “Call Me Maybe.” I spend a great deal of time finding obscure artists and new music genres for my own enjoyment as it seems Mr. Verderosa does, but I believe he was correct in saying that this song “transcends pop, music and mainstream culture.” I think his column did the song justice and set the record clear for the Davis community on where this song stands in the music world. I will now become a weekly reader of Mr. Verderosa’s column until forever and will be cutting out the masterpiece to post in a public place somewhere in my home.
