About Marry You

"Marry You" is a song by American singer and songwriter Bruno Mars from his debut studio album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans (2010). Written and produced by The Smeezingtons, it serves as the record's sixth track and was released as a single outside of the United States. "Marry You" is a pop song featuring strong influences of doo-wop and soul music. The recording focuses on spontaneous marriage and therefore, since its release, has frequently been used as a proposal song. "Marry You" received generally positive reviews from music critics, with some complimenting its production and its reminiscence of 1960s pop style. Some criticized a perceived lack of creativity. Despite not being released as a single in the US, the song charted at number 85 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has been certified three times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It charted on most international markets within the top fifteen, reaching number 10 on the Canadian Hot 100, number eight in Australia, the top five in New Zealand, and number 11 in the United Kingdom. The single was certified three-times platinum by Music Canada (MC) and two-times platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA). Mars performed "Marry You" on The Doo-Wops & Hooligans Tour (2010–12), the Moonshine Jungle Tour (2013–14) and the 24K Magic World Tour (2017–18). The song has been covered a number of times, most notably by the cast of Glee; their cover outperformed the original song by reaching number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100. more »
