Composition and lyrics[edit]

The song is a mid-tempo indie pop ballad with elements of alternative music, set to a beat of 76 BPM.[3] It is composed in the key of A Major, with the vocal range spanning from E3 - F5.[3]

Its lyrics describe the act of falling in love and the 'beautiful start to a lifelong love letter'.[4]

Music video[edit]

The music video for 'I Choose You' was directed by Dennis Liu and was released on May 5, 2014.[5] It features two real-life couples - one heterosexual and one lesbian - delivering unique proposals to their significant others with Bareilles's assistance.[6][7] The video combines footage of the preparations with shots of Bareilles singing, and culminates in the proposals.[7]

Critical reception[edit]

Mike Wass of Idolator described the production on the song as the most expansive of Bareilles's career, with its incorporation of 'kooky staccato beats' and a 'sprinkling of synths'.[8]

Jason Lipshutz of Billboard described the song as 'nimble', and stated that its 'backing vocals, string plucks and soaring romantic declarations would make this a bid for future wedding playlists'.[4]

Mesfin Fekadu of the Associated Press described the song as 'a beautiful song about falling in love' which could 'make anyone's irritating day better'.[9]
