It's the mash-up you've all been waiting for: Carly Rae Jepsen's hit song "Call Me Maybe" cleverly combined with George Lucas' "Star Wars" films. Canadian pop music and space opera together at last!

By splicing together footage from all six "Star Wars Saga" movies, YouTube user James Covenant cleverly makes it appear as though the cast of a galaxy far, far away are all singing Jepsen's hit song together. From Obi-wan and Han Solo, to Luke, Leia, Yoda, and Darth Vader, almost every "Star Wars" character gets in on the action. Even reviled prequel character Jar Jar Binks makes an appearance, and it's safe to say that it's the first time the Gungan has added value to anything. Ever.

Watch Covenant's awesome "Star Wars Call Me Maybe" below.

Even if you're not a fan of "Star Wars" or Jepsen, it's hard not to smile at this brilliantly assembled remix. The earworm is strong with this one! The intergalactic version of Jepsen's disturbingly catchy tune is sure to be stuck in your head all day.

Death toll in German Christmas market attack rises to five, police investigate Saudi suspect
MAGDEBURG, Germany (Reuters) -German authorities are investigating a Saudi man with a history of anti-Islam rhetoric as the suspected driver in a car-ramming attack at a Christmas market in the city of Magdeburg which killed five people, officials said on Saturday. The Friday evening attack on crowds of market visitors gathered to celebrate the pre-Christmas season comes amid a fierce debate over security and migration during an election campaign in Germany, where the far right is polling strongly.
