  • "Archie, Marry Me" is a song by Canadian indie pop band Alvvays. It was released on April 6, 2013, as the lead single from the band's eponymous debut album (2014). "Archie, Marry Me" examines modern romance and traditional marriage, and touches on themes of commitment and financial stability. It was written by vocalist and guitarist Molly Rankin with guitarist Alec O'Hanley as a critique of the standard societal expectation that one is to marry upon entering adulthood. Rankin and O'Hanley were romantically linked, and had been collaborating for some time creatively. Then in their mid-twenties, they observed with derision friends quickly being wed. "Archie" was first developed during a period in which they lived on Prince Edward Island in a remote farmhouse. The song and accompanying album were produced by Chad VanGaalen, and recorded at his studio, Yoko Eno, in Calgary, Alberta. The song's lo-fi music video, filmed on a Super 8 camera, pictures Rankin at a wedding reception and sailing on the sea. "Archie" was the first song the band released; it debuted digitally via the band's website before the band was signed to a label. It was later released on Royal Mountain Records, in their home country. In the U.S. and Europe, it was distributed through Polyvinyl and Transgressive Records, respectively. Though it did not chart, "Archie" was considered the band's breakthrough hit; it grew in popularity in the mid-2010s on streaming services. Critical reviews of the track were very positive, praising its bittersweet tone and lyrical content. It was ranked on several best-of lists in 2014, and has been called a "indie-pop classic." (en)
  • «Archie, Marry Me» es una canción por la banda canadiense de indie pop Alvvays. Fue publicada el 6 de abril de 2013 como el sencillo principal del álbum debut homónimo de la banda (2014). «Archie, Marry Me» examina el romance moderno y el matrimonio tradicional, y toca temas de compromiso y estabilidad financiera. Fue escrita por la vocalista y guitarrista Molly Rankin con el guitarrista Alec O'Hanley como una crítica de la expectativa social estándar de que uno debe casarse al llegar a la edad adulta. Rankin y O'Hanley estaban vinculados sentimentalmente y habían estado colaborando creativamente durante algún tiempo. Luego, a mediados de sus veinte años, observaron con burla que sus amigos se casaban rápidamente. «Archie, Marry Me» se desarrolló por primera vez durante un período en el que vivían en la Isla del Príncipe Eduardo en una casa rural. La canción y el álbum que la acompaña fueron producidos por Chad VanGaalen y grabados en su estudio Yoko Eno, en Calgary, Alberta. El video musical lo-fi de la canción, filmado con una filmadora Super 8, muestra a Rankin en una recepción de boda y navegando en el mar. «Archie, Marry Me» fue la primera canción que lanzó la banda; debutó digitalmente a través del sitio web de la banda antes de que la banda firmara con un sello. Más tarde fue lanzado en Royal Mountain Records, en su país de origen. En Estados Unidos y Europa, se distribuyó a través de Polyvinyl y Transgressive Records, respectivamente. Aunque no llegó a posicionarse en las listas, «Archie, Marry Me» fue considerado el gran éxito de la banda; creció en popularidad a mediados de la década de 2010 en los servicios de streaming. Las críticas de la canción fueron muy positivas y elogiaron su tono agridulce y su contenido lírico. Fue clasificado en varias listas de lo mejor en 2014 y ha sido llamado un “clásico del indie pop”.
