Nathan: I think one of my favorite intros ever by us is “Mary.” Because it goes “woo-doo” and then it’s just right in your face, like right off the bat.
Matthew: The background vocals, really, like the first thing you hear really, I was really excited. (Jared agrees) I don’t know who came up with that line, but when they did, I was like, “Man, that’s awesome.”
Caleb: It’s called “Mary” and it’s M-A-R-Y, but I’m actually talking about marriage. I said, “Marry if you wanna. I waive my right.” I think that was when I was kind of disgruntled about Nathan moving out of the house and getting married. Then, in the second verse, I talk about Nacho, and I say, like, “We’ll dance like we’re boyfriends in sheer delight,” because me and him used to go out and party. On this album, we were experimenting a little more and wanted to show our countrier side at times and our throwback side and wanted to give people like a brief history of what Kings of Leon have been trying to achieve all the while.
my favourite band EVER!
