I used to go up into the hills in the early AM hours of the day with my best friend and listen to Daughter until the sun came up. He had the biggest crush on Elena Tonra, and I had the biggest crush on him. Best years of my life. Thank you, Daughter, for being a part of my Youth.
oh oh, I fell in love with Daughter and this song in particular when I was around 13. going back through their music now, feels almost magical. simpler and lovelier times indeed :)
For me this song is about being in the moment. Being in a beatifiul and happy moment surronded by people you love but knowing that that moment will soon come to an end and be nothing but a memory. And you're not ready for this moment to end. You want to stay. You dont want to leave your childhood but you can feel it slowly slipping away. It's like the wind is carrying you forward and you are trying to work both against and towards it.
I love this song, it feels like it just makes time stop long enough for you to grab it, to bask in it. Long enough for it to pick you up so you feel weightless, helpless yet incredibly strong. It's like a fair ground ride moving so fast round and round that you can't pick out faces anymore, til you can't think anymore and all you can do is just be and as you ask "just a little longer" it gently lays you down, covers you up and flies off to another part of the universe.
This message is a call for hope and for HER. I went to the Daughter Concert in Luxembourg with a friend on the Saturday 17/11/2013. While the concert was playing, I noticed a girl who was on my right, she was looking at me for about 30 seconds without keeping her eyes off me, I looked her quickly but I did not dare look at her any other time. The reason why I'm writing this right now is that something made me feel extremly strange, though I could'nt catch it during the concert; Yet when I went back home, as I lied on my bed, I sudenly remembered that I've already seen that girl, I'm pretty sure, It was 10 years ago as we were kids, she loved me but I was to shy to even express how I felt for her there. I'm now an 18 year old boy and today I'm just torn appart for having been so shy again and let the chance run away. Don't you feel sometimes like life's mocking you and reapiting things over and over again until you find the key to solve the problem? UA-cam is maybe the last chance that I have to find her, or we will never even have a talk, we will just forget and begin another thing, I don't want this kind of thing to happen again, until I have a chance, until we have one, I will not let it fall down. That's what I remember concerning herself She is tall, with brown and long curly hairs, she was standing on the right close to the stage, I was on the middle a bit behind her. If you know her, of if you ARE her, contact me on my youtube message, let me know you've seen that... (ozerion2103@gmail.com) if you can remember I had short-medium lenght brown hairs and blue eyes, I weared a dark blue jeans and a light colored pullover. Thanks for your attention, I wish you love and all the good things the world has, Daughter is a good start, that's the right way!:) Bye
im trying to think of a word besides beautiful, since its been used to many times here, but i seriously cant think of anything else that describes this song. it just takes you away somewhere really beautiful
This song means so much to me. Had to move away from Wallisellen to America due to health reasons as a teen, family running around to clinics around the US... This song back then felt like it encapsulated the calmness of my Heimatstadt and then the fast moving we did and all the appointments, never ending treatments... Now it just feels like a snapshot of a time in my life where things changed forever and I moved a world away from home and all my friends. Ich möchte zurückgehen. Ich gehöre hier nicht hin.
I think it's a harmonium. It's an instrument similar to an accordion, but it looks more like an organ. I've seen Elena Tonra use one on a youtube session once, performing Medicine.
wtf i live in switzerland and i was listening to her songs for so many hours the last months. i thought i knew all of her songs omg and suddendly i found this. it's simply amazing. her songs are like a mirror to my soul, i can't explain it better. and sorry for my english.
Smilla Bühler jaaa, finges super! loses Lied grad zum 1. mal I weiss nid obs eh handorgle isch, kenne mi nid so us, aber vermuetes sho :) liebi grüessli usm mittelland! :D
daughter has such a nostalgic sound to it. it's the kind of music that reminds you of a childhood memory or an old feeling you once knew.
Thats literally exactly how i feel about Daughter. Wish they were still together.
I used to go up into the hills in the early AM hours of the day with my best friend and listen to Daughter until the sun came up. He had the biggest crush on Elena Tonra, and I had the biggest crush on him. Best years of my life. Thank you, Daughter, for being a part of my Youth.
I almost cried just reading your comment haha what a magical experience: the sunrise and Daughter's ethereal sound. The crush is the cherry haha
I think this is easily one of Daughter's most underrated and least known (judging by UA-cam views) songs, but one of their most powerful...
You absolutely right.Off course i have my favorite songs like everybody else but its hard to choose they all very good.Love them a lot.
Nikodaddy1 i LOVE their Medicine one... It hits home.
This song is so beautiful. I like to imagine sailing on a boat looking out on the horizon.
oh oh, I fell in love with Daughter and this song in particular when I was around 13. going back through their music now, feels almost magical. simpler and lovelier times indeed :)
still has such an effect on me after all these years. one of the best songs i've ever heard.
i wish lyrics 🥲
@@pedrokjkkdoesn’t need it imo.
I feel like crying, but just can`t
I wonder why
one day i wanna be at my own little cabin in switzerland, looking at the stars and listening to this song
That's my dream, i wish i could to go there someday

im from switzerland, thank you for this wonderful song!
this makes me want to lay down in the middle of an endless field somewhere in eastern europe
Same.

i wish u found her bro
this is one of the sweetest things I've ever heard. I really hope you find her.
Oreste2103 You had found her? Had passed 3 years...
Julian Luna hi, no did not :) but I learned to love life and found my passion, I'm really happy and grateful to be alive!
Oreste2103 I'm wishing the best for you, in anything you do!
Nothing like listening to this a 1 am when everything’s quiet.
To me this song is love. Not in a romantic way, but like a return to grace.
im trying to think of a word besides beautiful, since its been used to many times here, but i seriously cant think of anything else that describes this song. it just takes you away somewhere really beautiful
This is one of the few songs I know of that you can just sit back and drown in. I love those songs.
I miss my dad
the song is called switzerland and starts off with an accordeon which is like a traditional instrument here awe
If you like Daughter, you might like:
London Grammar
Lungley
Oh Wonder
I feel like I shouldve commented this years ago, but this is my favourite song.
Eleanor Rigby I always keep coming back to this song.

Watched National Geographic desert goddess video and when they showed video and pictures of the place and this song playing...it was truly magical.
How do I get over this song
It’s impressive!you need feel the song,not just hear.Don’t listen fast!!!
love is everywhere love love love
This song should be the definition for serenity in the dictionary
this song gives me so much feels i fucking love it
This is so intergalactic.
I seriously think that that was one of the most beautiful and accurate ways to describe this. Thank you.
Being 25% swiss, it makes me miss my relatives there, the whole country... I was there 2018 at La Chaux De Fonds.. Man..
I've only just found out about Daughter, and this song makes me feel so calm and peaceful. Definitely one of my new favourite songs
Listen to this song in the car when the sun is setting.
Try again but with a nice rain too ;)
Immediately thought of Sigur Ros- Glosoli. If you like this track you will love sigur ros.. They are the most amazing at this stuff.
If you like Daughter, you may also like Lungley
I feel that i'm on a roadtrip to any beautiful place there is, with the people i love and just breathing nature in
I listened to this song over and over again while listening to "Perks of Being a Wallflower", this song is amazing. I get chills every time.
I wish i lived in Switzerland. Such a beautiful country.
How is it possible that this song only has 498 views?
Absolutely amazing in every way.
and I let go...
How wonderful. Now this is music!
MOM i miss you
This song is in an amazing documentary called Damnation
this song is so beautiful
Is that the accordion? I LOVE THE ACCORDION!!
Gediminas Vaiciunas Don't need people like that on here. Mr. Vaicinas, you sir deserve a block and ban. Good day, sir. I said, "good day!"
I FUCKING LOVE ACCORDIONS TOO
CallHRsGB WE ARE FUCKING FRIENDS FOREVER! Wait a second.....
I think it's a harmonium. It's an instrument similar to an accordion, but it looks more like an organ. I've seen Elena Tonra use one on a youtube session once, performing Medicine.
Misvha
That instrument isn't really all that popular in the Western world, which makes me wonder...but you might be right.
to sing along i just pretty much hum everything but my oh my this is just pure perfection.
This song is so Beautiful, i was just in Switzerland in October, Beautiful country, this song makes me wish i was back there...right meow!
Reminds me so much of Florence + The Machine 😌🙌🏾
Thank you Ms. Tonra !

i was never before so glad to be Swiss
I'm from Switzerland :)
yes!
♥ I feel you.
i agree, taylor. It is my secret to and sometimes we all want to punch someone in the face when they say "i knew them first"
Can anyone explain to me what the meaning is behind the lyrics or what it has to do with switzerland? Thank you
Zeyno Probably because of the accordion which is the traditional instrument here in switzerland (and other alpine regions)
Winter sports and snow and awesome people xD
Amazing
This song is very sweet and soft... i have a dream: love and lover... forever!
