Thomas Rhett's "Marry Me" is the antithesis of everything he's done up to this point. The song is an ice-cold ballad capable of shredding your heart. Take everything you've learned during hits like "Unforgettable," "Die a Happy Man" and "T-Shirt" and burn it for this song.
Can this really be the same guy who cut "Get Me Some of That" ... ?
Thomas Rhett met his wife Lauren in grade school and married her in 2012. However, there was a time when they both nearly tied the knot with other people. Rhett explained at his iHeartRadio album release party, why, in spite of the romantic-sounding title, fans should not use this tune at their nuptials.
"Crash and Burn" is Rhett's closest radio relative to "Marry Me," but that song would need to be hitched to a hearse to get close. This song trudges along like a funeral procession, never once letting up to allow hope in after the last line of his chorus pulls a blackout shade over what's to come.
"Marry Me" was written by Rhett, Ashley Gorley, Jesse Frasure and Shane McAnally and is the third single from his Life Changes studio album. It stands out like an elephant riding a unicorn across the Walmart parking on an at times saccharine album that is very much an ode to his wife Lauren and the adventures they've had.

I'll wear my black suit, black tie, hiding out in the back
I'll do a strong shot of whiskey straight out the flask
I'll try to make it through without crying so nobody sees
Yeah, she wanna get married
But she don't wanna marry me
