62-year-old post-punk, alt-rock listener who is absolutely in love with this song. I only wish I'd heard it 6 years ago
I’ve been wearing out their new release “Blue Rev”. Not a bad song on the whole album.
this has broken my solid 3-year obsession with black metal. melt my cold black heart, archie's lover!
What he means is that there should be a metal version of this song.
Francois Ouellette you can still listen black metal and admire the beauty and talent of Alvvays, i love Travis, oasis, soundgarden, slayer, and creedence and i hear that kind of bands too
No reason not to have both in your life man. I'm not a metal fan personally but I listen to all sorts of Drum&Bass. Gotta make time for beauties like this too :)
no matter how much i love black metal it doesn't define my entire taste. it's always nice to have some diversity, more genres more happiness
I used to be a "purist" too, stoner metal or anything heavy and aggressive. But as im getting older, I just dont give a shit anymore. If it sounds good, I'll listen to it no matter the gerne. Music is music.
I feel like in those aesthetic like old movies when listening to this. Flowers everywhere, late night movies, young love, sorrow nights. The teenage life.
This comment warmed my heart a little bit. Sending you a hug wherever you are.
I totally think of Mary Kate and Ashley’s old movies. Especially ‘Our Lips Are Sealed’ when they go to Luna Park in Sydney, AUS
This song is one the greatest masterpieces of modern indie pop
Hell yeah it is
Marry her, Archie!
Kasper Zak when I get a job

I heard this song while I was in the car with my friend and his dad. The rain was pounding down and the music was blaring in the back seat. Both him and his dad were singing in the while I looked out the window. It was a surreal experience and I'm glad I know about them now
*just gonna leave this here*
You've expressed explicitly your contempt for matrimony
You've student loans to pay and will not risk the alimony
We spend our days locked in a room content inside a bubble
And in the night time we go out and scour the streets for trouble
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
During the summer take me sailing out on the Atlantic
I won't set my sights on other seas, there is no need to panic
So honey take me by the hand and we can sign some papers
Forget the invitations, floral arrangements and bread makers
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Too late to go out, too young to stay in
They're talking about us living in sin
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
Hey, hey, A.R.C.H.I.E, hey
There is a 90's maybe early 2000's vibe in this song.
Definitely a mid 90's vibe
Which was pulling from the late-70's, early 80's rock
90s vibe with a splash of 80s pop
Reminds me of The Go-Gos
Blondie first album - 70s
This band is making me believe that good, original pop-rock is still alive and well. I want to meet these people.
Shoegazing*
Pop-rock I thought this was indie?
@@wolfgang6442 I don’t know dude; I was twenty when I wrote this. It’s definitely taking its cues from pop, but you’re right that, especially at the time of this comment, Alvvays was an indie band.
@@Ohfukmoment genre is an inherently limiting lens through which to analyze music and i feel like its a waste of time to worry about it unless u work for a record or marketing company lmfao. it is good short hand but i think kinda limits what people will let themselves listen to and enjoy because of stereotypes about certain genres. i just like the music i like and think is good and this shit is awesome and thats what matters most to me. u could call it pop rock or indie or dream pop or shoegaze or anything but its just some good ass music
i'm here full on sobbing after finishing my mad fat diary :") i adore archie with my whole heart and this song makes me think of him!!
damn this song makes me sad for some reason
all hail the almighty loaf
Me too, i thought i was batshit lol
same fam
I think it's because it kind of sounds like a Smiths song sometimes, which are usually very sad. Plus the echo evokes a nostalgic feel.
Same. After having listened to it a lot, I think it's because it sounds like a farewell to youth, like a beautiful summer that you knew wouldnt last forever.
In this case, that beautiful, fleeting something is the relationship with Archie. The proposition, "Marry me, Archie," is a request to extend that feeling of carefreeness and of the freedom that comes with youth before the responsibilities of full adulthood hit you like a bag of bricks.
And while adulthood does creep in, with the mention of "Student loans to pay," the singer and Archie are still young enough to live life "in a bubble" and "scour the streets for trouble."
Aging and youth comes up again in the lyrics, "too late to go out, too young to stay in," which indicate that, yes, they are growing up, and are on that cusp of adulthood where staying up all night becomes a costly thing to do.
The other people who talk about them "living in sin" is symbolic of society's pressure to "grow up" and be more responsible.
But the singer wants to hold onto youth and the carelessness that comes with it. "Marry me, Archie," expresses this, considering that marriage seems like such a typical thing that young couples jump into impulsively.
There's an understanding however, that Archie has "expressed explicitly [his] contempt for matrimony," just as there is an understanding that the singer can't keep just living in the moment without consideration of obligations. Which is the fate of growing up.
This song is so beautiful when you’re in love, and so bittersweet when you’re looking back on what could’ve been.
ex girlfriend put this in a playlist for me before we even started dating, just listened to this song again over a year after our break up and i teared up a little. crazy how life works.
This is the kind of song I can feel in my heart and stomach, I am so happy and glad that I found this band!
I meant heart omg
Kayla Marie you can do an "edit" by clicking on the "down arrow" that's inside of the circle to the right of your comment. that way, you don't have to write another comment correcting your previous comment (you can just correct the typo directly). just an fyi...
agua9999 I figured that out a couple days before you sent this comment lol
I've literally had this song on repeat since I first heard it
+Matt
If you haven't already, check out "Pleasure" by Feist. Could quite possibly be the next song you leave on repeat for a good while.
Damn for 3 years now, that's wild
To this day?
This song feels like driving past the sea mid-day with the windows open and the breeze blowing through your hair and the smell of the ocean filling your nose as you stare out at the passing water.
Archie is my chosen name. What a cool song. I feel so euphoric. :)
Somebody PLEASE reccommend me more songs this good!!
When Rolling Stone raved about them I was sure this would be crap. Glad I checked them out anyway, ha ha, what a great song. Look forward to the album!
My new favorite group of 2014. Incredible debut.
#1 complaint from me about most bands is vocals...these are absolutely fantastic
5th time in a row listening to this track!!! Its really dope!
tone bone I can top that xD
In March last year I listened to Archie, Marry Me for an entire evening and when I woke up the next day, it was still playing.
I've probably heard 24 hours worth of this song. No, definitely. ;P
Lol... Really good song
Love the 90's throwback sound. Vocals sound a little bit like Mazzy Star, IMO.
"90's" lmao ok
I thought it was Mazzy at first
One of the best "pop bands" I've heard in years. My second (of 5) kids and a very special little geez is called Archie.
It's not pop, but okay
@@weirdoscreation it literally is
They've been playing this non-stop on The Current and for once, I haven't gotten sick of it yet!
Love The Current!
Wow I've never heard of this group and I'm blown and I have like a 8 thousand song library thanks for posting
Heard this song at my job had to find it ☺️
This is possibly the best song in the whole world, ever. In fact, not possibly. Definitely.
Rich L I always picture myself lying on the grass and seeing a kaleidoscopic animation of this album above my head as I fade into everlasting sleep.
I fucking love this song
Music always comes full circle. It's just a matter of recognizing it. What it boils down to is that I prefer this over all the commercial shit out there. At least this rocks and has soul. Everything I hear nowadays sounds like it was created in a laboratory
you're not digging deep enough. there are still a lot of good, genuine rock songs. they're all under different "sub-genres" though
best single in years. So refreshing
Trying to share this with everyone I can
This song makes me feel so happy and so sad at the same time
Great song, at first i thought is as mazzy star, when I heard it on the radio, for the first time, a comeback, if you like Alvvays, check out mazzy star, 15 years earlier, but good, great female vocalists,
this song plays as soon as the homies leave my car
I have loved this song for years ❤️❤️❤️
my boyfriend just showed me this song, im so lucky
he dumped me whoops
@@abgtpz hahahahahah get fucked
@@RustlingJimmies69 oof someone's bitter and lonely
@@abgtpz sorry that happened, I wish you the best in your healing process and future relationship
@@vanessaarroyo6703 Yes.
this song makes me SO HAPPY
So I heard this at work and let me just tell you, my cat's name is Archie so I fucking died when I realized what the chorus was 😂😂♥️♥️
So honey take me by the paw...
@@mrbump28 😂😂😂
Saw them in Brighton about a month ago. This was a highlight. It's a really decent song and I look forward to the album...
genial¡ ahora a escuchar el album...
αυτο το τραγουδι θα μου θυμίζει πάντα το καλοκαίρι μας
i cant get enough of this song
Glad I've discovered this mesmerizing song this is something you most definitely would hear in those aesthetically driven love movies towards the end credits
Brilliant voice great tune love it
One of these simple songs that are perfection
I can't give more than one like :(. Thanks Radio 6 music
So true. 6 music is how I found these peeps too!
Thanks to my local radio station, I found this gem. Just 8 years too late.
I feel like this song should play at the end of an episode of Pete and Pete...
Simply amazing song! Come to Spain!
I LOVE This!! I'd have it on a loop if I could find one.
Their best offering. A very genuine song.
The guitar work, subdued, is great. The piece has a wonderful, big, full sound. And, her vocal is charming...
You’re right, none of their other work really compares to this gem
AYO I haven't heard this song in so long... what the
15 years old rn. this is my first time hearing this song. bless my soul fr.
I was 14 . You’re still lucky. I used Soundhound as my brother was playing it in our room in 2015
@@edgariva12 thank you?
I need a GF that writes me love songs like this...🤞
Underrated comment. I hope you'll find her! :)
Loving the meta retro idea of only on tape!
bro polyvinyl sent me this in a 7 in for free. so glad i gave it a listen
I love this song so much.
Declan mckenna took me here :') he made a cover of this
Come to Florida!!
Bro who knows more songs like this this shit fucking slaps*¡*
Solid band, the best one nowadays.
El Pop nuestro de cada dia...
I love this jangle pop revival.
that's some nifty guitar playing
Heard this song on the radio and thought it must be from old punk/riot grrl band that I missed. Turns out it's new! Glad to find this gem.
Love this song
Man I wanna go so bad, I can’t believe I let myself get to this point in addition to making the mistakes I did, you don’t realize how good you have it until the most important thing in your life is gone, what I’d do to go back in time and change everything.
I heartily second that emotion
Teşekkürler Nilll bağımlı oldum
I heard this on the radio and thought it was The Cranberries. So good.
this is my jam
Love this song!!!
Wow love this💗😍
holy shit the verse sounds just like the verse from "plays pretty for baby" by zolof the rock and roll destroyer, which is also a fantastic song
What a vibe.
Beautiful song.... 💍
so good.
Nice happy song!
My gosh ❤
This song is such an ear worm. Alvvays stuck in my head.😅😢😅

So good
I hope Archie married her. ❤
I would rather listen to this song over so many other things

I love this song so much I would marry it (even though my name is not Archie!!)
Ace! lovely song. All music is derivative, just enjoy.
Cool song
Great song.

Look up Julie ruins if you want to expand some try her full albums

This was great in Man Seeking Woman
Reminds me of
Just Like Heaven by The Cure
Wish Fulfillment by Sonic Youth
Fade Into You by Mazzy Star
OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH

Yeah😌👏🏻
It’s so funny how this song makes me think about my crush who’s name is Veronica
