Song History
"Marry U" was originally track 6 from the original album, Don't Don, which was released on September 20, 2007. However, a new version of "Marry U" was released on the first repackaged version of the album on November 5, 2007. "Marry U" is a light R&B ballad with soft rapping and gentle vocalization and harmonization. The theme of the song involves a sweet proposal and a confession of love, with repeating imagery of a bride and groom walking towards the moons and stars. The lyrics support long-lasting love and describes that although growing older, the love will never leave.
The only difference between the first and second version of "Marry U" are the switching of solo positions. In the original version, Han Geng, Shindong, and Kibum do not have solos. However, Han Geng and Shindong gained solos in the second version. Han Geng sings Heechul's original solo and Shindong raps to the second half of Eunhyuk's second solo. Heechul's solo is switched to rapping to the second half of Eunhyuk's first solo.

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or history:
“There is the falsely mystical view of art that assumes a kind of supernatural inspiration, a possession by universal forces unrelated to questions of power and privilege or the artist’s relation to bread and blood. In this view, the channel of art can only become clogged and misdirected by the artist’s concern with merely temporary and local disturbances. The song is higher than the struggle.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“Books of natural history aim commonly to be hasty schedules, or inventories of God’s property, by some clerk. They do not in the least teach the divine view of nature, but the popular view, or rather the popular method of studying nature, and make haste to conduct the persevering pupil only into that dilemma where the professors always dwell.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
