View

"View" was released on May 18, 2015 as the lead single of the group's fourth Korean studio album Odd (2015). Band member Jonghyun wrote the lyrics, while LDN Noise, Ryan S. Jhun, and Adrian McKinnon handled the composition and production. The song incorporates deep house and pop, featuring stripped-down instrumentation. The lyrics are about how people's senses are intensified by love.

"View" received generally positive reviews from music critics, who regarded it as K-pop's first foray into deep house. In 2019, Billboard placed the song on its decade-end list of the greatest K-pop songs of the 2010s. It was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2015 Mnet Asian Music Awards. The song reached number one on the Gaon Digital Chart, and has sold over 724,000 digital copies in South Korea as of December 2015.

An accompanying music video was released to YouTube on May 19, 2015, and features Shinee going on an adventure with female fans and performing choreography to the song. To promote the song, the band performed "View" on several South Korean music programs, including Music Bank, Show! Music Core and Inkigayo.

The track is an uptempo 1990s-inspired deep house and pop song, marking a departure from the group's signature R&B sound. Some music critics have also characterized its sound as Italo house and UK garage. Regarding the choice of the genre, Jonghyun told Dazed, "On the musical side, deep house is a genre that's been developing internationally for a long time, but I think our song 'View' is the first song within K-pop to weave in that sound, and bring it to the masses. We wanted it to feel new and sophisticated." Ahead of its release, member Minho stated that he was worried how the new sound would be received by the audience. Having a sensual sound, the song portrays the beauty of love as a "mixture of diverse senses". In the lyrics, the group discuss how people's senses are intensified by love. The lyrics are noted for their use of synesthetic imagery.
