"It is always really insane to me. It's one of those moments when I hear it and I can't believe where I am. The biggest shock was the first time I heard it in Texas. Before that time it had only played in Canada. I remember we were doing a promo run in the US, and I remember stepping to get some snacks at a gas station and it was just playing on the radio. And I remember stopping the van and making all the band members come in. We probably just forget about the snacks." -- Carly Rae Jepsen

After the runaway success of her hit song "Call Me Maybe" Canadian singer Carly Rae Jepsen still has trouble believing it when she hears the track on the radio. 2012 has been a year of triumphs for the singer, who released her second full length album Kiss this past September. AOL Music had access to a behind the scenes video for the photo shoot for the album artwork -- the record helped her win AMA 2012 New Artist of the Year!
