Carly Rae Jepsen has teamed with former Atlanta musician and producer Butch Walker to create a new version of the "Full House" theme song for the Netflix revival "Fuller House."

She announced the collaboration on Twitter:

The new version, which features much of the original cast (but minus the Olsen twins), will debut on Netflix February 26. with 13 episodes. The original sitcom aired from 1987 to 1995.

Jepsen, who is repped by Atlanta's Scooter Braun, is best known for her breakout 2012 hit "Call Me Maybe."

Walker, who had his own 1998 hit "Freak of the Week" with Marvelous 3, has produced songs over the years for the likes of Pink, Avril Lavigne and Katy Perry.

Here's the original theme song, as if you didn't know it already:
