It was also performed at Trainor's 2015 That Bass Tour and MTrain Tour, and The Untouchable Tour (2016).

Background

American record producer and frequent collaborator Kevin Kadish (pictured) co-wrote "Dear Future Husband" with Trainor.

"Dear Future Husband" was inspired by Meghan Trainor's love for harmonies[1] and a joke she made with her father, where she would say "that her future husband is out there somewhere, 'chilling'".[2] Trainor reminisced on her past romantic relationships, where she was mishandled, and with the track, she wanted to make a statement that women should be treated better by their boyfriends.[3] In an interview with Seventeen, Trainor said, "It's like, I'm awesome, why would you not want to marry me and date me?"[4] Trainor considers "Dear Future Husband" to be one of the strongest tracks on her studio album Title (2015).[5]

On August 10, 2014, Trainor premiered "Dear Future Husband" at a promotional gig in Kansas City.[6] In August 2014, Trainor announced that "Dear Future Husband" would be released as the second single;[7] the full studio version of "Dear Future Husband" premiered online on September 4, 2014. It was first featured on Trainor's debut extended play (EP), Title, which was released on September 9, 2014. It was then featured as a B-side to "All About That Bass" in Austria,[8] Germany and Switzerland on October 3, 2014.[9][10] "Dear Future Husband" later served as an "instant grat" download from the pre-order of her studio album Title after October 20, 2014.[11] However, the song's single release was cancelled in favor of "Lips Are Movin" which was released on October 21, 2014,[12] as Trainor's second single from the full-length replacement of Title.[13] "Dear Future Husband" was later chosen as the third single off the full-length Title and was released on April 26, 2015, in the United Kingdom,[14] and the artwork for the song was unveiled on March 13, 2015.[15] It was released to mainstream radio in the United States on March 17, 2015.[16] Upon its release, the song was criticized for what some people perceived as being extremely similar to Olly Murs' 2011 single "Dance With Me Tonight".[17]

Composition

"Dear Future Husband" was recorded at The Carriage House in Nolensville, Tennessee. Trainor's vocals were recorded by Kadish, who was also responsible for the track's mixing, programming and engineering. The song's instrumentation includes electric guitar, bass, synthesizer and acoustic guitar by Kadish; and piano and organ by David Baron; and baritone and tenor saxophone by Jim Hoke. The song was mastered by David Kutch at The Mastering Palace, New York City, New York.[18]

"Dear Future Husband" is a pop, doo-wop and R&B song which runs for a duration of three minutes and four seconds.[19][20][21] It opens with the sound of a stylus on a damaged vinyl before transcending into an old-fashioned ukulele melody.[22] Musically, the track contains "slick" production and a rock-inspired drum beat, a "zippy" piano melody and "ebullient" brass instrumentation.[23] In an interview with Popjustice's Peter Robinson, Trainor said: "It's my lil' list of things he should probably be aware of if he wants to marry me. You need to take me on a date, bring me flowers every anniversary. Tell me I'm beautiful sometimes, if you wanna get that "special loving".[7]

Lyrically, "Dear Future Husband" deals with subjects of chivalry and marriage.[2][24] It is based on a list of qualities a man should have if he wants to marry Trainor, or call her his girlfriend.[4] Christina Lee of Idolator opined that the lyrics, "You got that 9-to-5, but baby, so do I / so don't be thinking I'll be home making apple pies" and Trainor's "slight twang" on the song recalled the works of American singer Wanda Jackson.[25] Rolling Stone writer Jon Dolan opined that the song's lyrical content describes "marriage as a contract between equals who work and don't cook," and deemed it a "YA dream that's no pastel-colored fantasy".[24] The track's melody was likened to those of 1961 songs "Runaround Sue" by Dion and "Quarter to Three" by Gary U.S. Bonds.[1][24]

Critical reception

Adam Markovitz of Entertainment Weekly awarded "Dear Future Husband" an "A−" rating in a review of the Title EP, and deemed it an "irresistible" sock hop throwback.[20] Chris DeVille of Stereogum wrote that "Dear Future Husband" was interchangeable in its lyrical content in comparison with the EP's title track.[23] Lindsey Weber of New York opined that the track "reads like 'All About That Bass' Pt. II".[26] Time journalist Nolan Feeney wrote that the song's rallying against "hookup culture" was "rare" in pop music.[27] Piet Levy of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel gave "Dear Future Husband" a positive review, writing that it is as "cute" as a "clever rom-com". He added that Trainor tossed in a "funny double entendre fake-out" and thought that she spoke out against gender norms: "smashing old-fashioned spousal expectations".[28]

Anna Silman of Salon named "Dear Future Husband" the worst song of 2015, criticizing its "aggressively heteronormative message" and Trainor's vocal performance.[29] Mic's Kate Beaudoin heavily criticized the song's lyrics, writing, "This song teaches kids that men are born to be husbands and women are born to be wives. But that kind of rationale wears away at a woman's right to be anything she wants."[30] Feeney was critical of the song, writing, "What she’s describing is not a relationship—it’s a Meghtatorship."[31] The Los Angeles Times' Mikael Wood had a mixed opinion on the song, stating that Trainor seems to be sketching "a union of equals", but added that she later expressed more conventional ideas about wives.[32]

Commercial performance

"Dear Future Husband" initially peaked at number 64 on the US Billboard Hot 100 issued for January 10, 2015.[33] Following its release as a single, the song re-entered at number 47.[34] It peaked at number 14 on the chart issued for June 6, 2015, selling its millionth download the same week.[35] The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) certified "Dear Future Husband" 3× Platinum.[36] On the Canadian Hot 100, the song charted at number 22 and Music Canada certified it 3× Platinum.[37][38] It reached number 20 on the UK Singles Chart, earning a Platinum certification from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI).[39][40]

In Australia, "Dear Future Husband" peaked at number nine, becoming Trainor's third song to reach the top 10.[41] The Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) certified the song 4× Platinum.[42] It charted at number 27 in New Zealand and received a Gold certification from Recorded Music NZ (RMNZ).[43][44] "Dear Future Husband" reached the top 15 of national record charts, at number three in South Africa,[45] number four in Venezuela,[46] number five in the Netherlands,[47] Poland,[48] number 11 in Belgium,[49] the Czech Republic,[50] number 12 in Scotland,[51] number 14 in Austria,[52] and number 15 in Spain.[53] The song received a Platinum certification in Mexico,[54] and Gold in Denmark,[55] Spain.[56]

Music video

Background and synopsis

Fatima Robinson directed the The Stepford Wives-inspired music video for "Dear Future Husband".[57][58] Trainor shared a black and white teaser of it on her Instagram account on March 12, 2015.[59] She premiered the video at Today four days later, where she also announced that she would go on tour.[60][61][62] Charlie Puth, with whom Trainor collaborated on the song "Marvin Gaye" (2015), makes a cameo in it.[63]

In the video, Trainor performs the song in a latex blue skirt, leopard-print tank top and red cropped leather jacket with a barbershop quartet.[64][65] She engages in household chores such as baking pies in the kitchen and scrubbing floors.[58][66][67] Trainor uses a dating app reminiscent of Tinder to audition different men to be her partner.[61][64] They present gifts to her and one of them fails at his attempt to hit the bell on a carnival strength tester machine.[68] Trainor stamps the word "fail" and rejects them all one-by-one as they fail to follow her rules.[61][65] In the end, she approves of Puth when he brings her a carryout pizza.[58]

Reception

Billboard's Jason Lipshutz thought that the video "owns its pastiche of retro signifiers" while switching up domiciliary expectations.[65] Shiela Cosgrove Baylis of People wrote that though Trainor took on a more domestic role in it than previous videos, it still retained her eccentric fashion choices and "slumber-party dance moves".[61] Feeney stated that the video was more frightening than Taylor Swift's portrayal of the "crazy-ex-girlfriend" in her music video for "Blank Space" (2014), despite Trainor not using knives as a weapon in it.[31] Writing for USA Today, Kelly Lawler described the video as "a lot" and criticized it for having too many things going on at once, noting that it lacked the "healthy sense of irony" displayed in the videos for "Blank Space" and Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats" (2006).[64] New York's Lindsey Weber wrote that if Trainor is trying to send a message to her future spouse, someone should ensure that it never reaches him.[69]

The music video caused controversy and garnered criticism online, over allegations of antifeminism, sexism and perpetuation of gender stereotypes.[66][67] Critics accused it of hindering women by suggesting that they should only be domestic housewives.[62] Trainor responded by denying the allegations and explaining her intention: "I think I was just writing my song to my future husband out there, wherever he is. He's chilling right now, taking a minute getting ready for me; it's going to be great."[66] Wendy Geller of Yahoo! thought "it should be obvious that the song and music video aren't meant to be taken seriously", and believed the controversy may unintentionally propel the video's views.[70]

Live performances

Trainor performed "Dear Future Husband" live in a sailor's hat and knee-length skirt at the iHeartRadio Music Awards on March 29, 2015.[71][72] Her male backup dancers were dressed as seamen in red galluses, boaters and short pants. MTV News' Brenna Ehrlich commented they looked like extras from H.M.S. Pinafore and Trainor resembled a 1950s pin-up model, while The Hollywood Reporter's Ashley Lee described the rendition as throwback sailor-themed heaven.[71][73] On May 19, 2015, Trainor performed an acoustic version of the song on her ukulele at the eighth season of The Voice, accompanied by Kadish on guitar.[74][75][76] She was surrounded by lamps during it. Jodi Walker of Entertainment Weekly wrote that the performance illustrated to the show's future winner that the record industry can be a place for "music that sounds like a current spin on a different generation of music".[74] Trainor sang it on Today on May 22, in a set that also featured "All About That Bass", "Lips Are Movin" and "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" (2015).[77]

Trainor opened her That Bass Tour (2015) by performing "Dear Future Husband" in a blue-green crinoline with pleats and an enchanting top, which USA Today's Carlee Wright considered a strong start to the show.[78][79] She also performed the song as the first on the MTrain Tour (2015), with a band and four back up dancers.[80] Trainor included it on her set list for the 2014 Jingle Ball Tour and The Untouchable Tour (2016).[81][82][83] On 18 January 2020, Trainor and fellow judge Olly Murs performed "Dear Future Husband" as a mashup with the latter's 2011 single "Dance with Me Tonight", on the ninth season of The Voice UK, after he pointed out the similarities between the tracks.[84] A gay couple from Minneapolis trying to adopt a baby released a parody of the song in March 2015, entitled "Dear Future Baby", about "how they promise to be the best dads they can be".[85][86]
