"Most of my boys are with me, some are still out seeking glory. Some I had to leave behind, my brother I'm still sorry." Damn, that line always gets me.
I came back to this comment because it is STILL this very line that gets me EVERY time I hear this song! I appreciate that someone else feels this way! I'm certain we're not the only ones, but I can just appreciate the simple fact that somebody posted this! Hope you're doing alright! With that said, NEVER give up, Always push through! ✨..•.·°·.•..This TOO Shall Pass, ..•.·°·.•..🌠 My friend..
On a quiet ride home from a tball game after my 6yr.old lost the first game of his winning season, out of nowhere, he started singing this song. It was so touching and kinda funny at the same time listening to a 6yr old sing, "once I was 7yrs old..." Son, you're not even 7 yet.
My son introduced me LG. This song slays me. I turned 50 this year, inside I still feel 21. Life flies after High School. Take in every moment you have with friends, still love them, but cut loose those that hold you back, and learn family ain't always blood, but those who love you for who you are.
+DrawnUniverse If you ever get the chance to hear him live. Do it. You will not be dissapointed. I was at a concert in Denmark about a month ago, such a humble guy and just flawless performance.
S0 true! I t0tally agree with u. And I als0 think , it´s always better when it is live and ac0ustic. at least fr0m such talented singers like him. PS sry my letter 0 is destr0yed ^^
That line where he says I hope my kids come to visit me once or twice a month made me want to go visit my Mom after not seeing her for 5 years. She asks me multiple times a year to visit or to meet up and I always same I'm busy (which I am, but I can try to make time). When I heard this line, I was like "I have to go see my Mom, if that's what she's thinking about when she goes to bed". Making her think about whether she'll see me again before she goes away forever is not something any parent should have to think about. then I think about when I have kids and I would think the same thing. This song really puts into perspective how much of a repetitive cycle life really is.
I was 20 with more friends than I needed, 30 with friends I swore I’d know for as long as I lived… Turing 40 this year with more fingers on hand than friends… this is what I call life’s journey.
+bernie23232323232323 XD /r/videos is my favourite subreddit! So yeah, you might see me commenting sometimes on videos I've seen there. I highly doubt it's always though, I just had a week off two weeks ago and commented more than usual (max 3 comments a day even) :P.
He is just amazing, he sound so good in live, I first hear this song last week on the radio and I've been searching it for a long time. I mean this song makes me cry literally. He is so talented, and I really want to see him in live.
Thankyou for this song as it always resonates with me and as I get older I wish I could see my mum again but alas life passes so quickly and I can’t look over my shoulder and see what was …
i want to find more songs like this for early 6am rainy days. listening to this early in the morning while its raining outside really puts out a nice setting.
My gosh, I've watched five of these live versions now and it's so enjoyable to watch an artist perform quality vocals live for once. No doubt, it is NOT easy, which makes Lukas that much more awesome.
I was driving in my car and this came on the radio. I had to pull over just to listen, and it reduced me to tears for being such a beautiful song. I'm a 24 year old guy from the UK and recently lost my best friend to a drugs overdose. When he sings about his boys but being 60, stunning. Thank you so much for writing this beautiful song Lucas. Thanks for the bottom of my heart mate.
Yes, he does say "Lone-iggy". Yes, he's Danish. Yes it's because of a vibrato combined with a precise pitch shift. Sure, it perks your ears up, but after a while I liked and appreciated the uniqueness.
I doubt this comment will reach the band, but in case it does: thank you. I've never found a sound that spoke to my souls the way this song does. You brought a tear to my eyes with your amazing lyrics and incredible sound. I hope that one day when I make it big we can tour together or collaborate. Seriously, thank you.
Amazing. Thank you Walmart Soundcheck for bringing this song into my life. Writing my first novella and rewriting my life right now makes this song speak to me so much.
Once I was seven years old, my mama told me "Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely" Once I was seven years old It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure Once I was eleven years old, my daddy told me "Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely" Once I was eleven years old I always had that dream, like my daddy before me So I started writing songs, I started writing stories Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me 'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me Once I was twenty years old, my story got told Before the morning sun, when life was lonely Once I was twenty years old (Lukas Graham!)

Martin Vikan, what the fuck are you talking about?!! I have no idea if you and that other guy are from North America, but here when someone says "this shit is fire" (or in this case fire emojis,) it's a good thing. Perhaps you're trolling, idk. Buuuut, this song is amazing so fuck y'all.
+Santa Claus ikr a lil insight to how fake it all is i think like kid cudi said if you a real person then the industry isn`t for you because there's alot of fakeness and fake people to it also lukas tells us in this song how he writes alot of "stories"
Brother Lucas, I have to state the facts. Brother, your writing skills, and singing is upon the best in the industry. However, "7-Years" lyrics, are hands down the best in this decade. Love you brother, keep up the wonderful job. MY wife and I look forward to seeing you in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Perhaps, we can show you around, and eat the great New Mexican Food. God bless brother Lucas.
The most underrated artist. I mean he can blow the entire world. This dude deserve more respect and attention. Indeed great performance just like the official audio.
Frazza your comment fills me with determination to do a genocide route on undertale and listen to megadoloviana its a awesome song that's why im going to KILL EVRYONE HAHAHAH
this a good sog you have a good song you should go on exfactor and you got 100 out of 100 form me abd my gifrend and she loves all of your song you have got and she loves your vioce and she thinks you are a good singer so all of you yows donot tell him he is not a good singer
Some of these lines get me. " And some I had to leave behind my brother I'm still sorry" " it was a big big world but we thought we were bigger, pushing each other to the limits we were learning quicker
His voice is the best I've heard in a long while.

When an artist can sound exactly like or even better than the studio version live then you know they have true talent.
indeed
I know it's almost hard to believe,

When he starts to sing about 60 years old I start to cry.. Dont know why, maybe thinking that your parents are getting old it is so sad :'(
Ughh yes :(

Once I was seven years old, my mama told me
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
Once I was seven years old
It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Once I was eleven years old, my daddy told me
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
Once I was eleven years old
I always had that dream, like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old
(Lukas Graham!)
I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
I got my boys with me, at least those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
I was writing 'bout everything I saw before me
Once I was twenty years old
Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old
I'm still learning about life
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother, I'm still sorry
Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month
Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?

still an awesome tune though
He doesn't use autotune. Look up one of his live shows
He's a classically trained singer. He can sing soprano. He doesn't use autotune.

+Don Williams Your voice is your own, unique, like his
Great to see a real live performer without autocorrect. Props!

best i have ever heard in my life continue makeing this amazing music
Once I was seven years old, my mama told me
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
Once I was seven years old
It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By 11 smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Once I was 11 years old, my daddy told me
Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely
Once I was 11 years old
I always had that dream like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about the glory, just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once I was 20 years old
(Lukas Graham)
I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
I got my boys with me atleast those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
I was writing 'bout everything, I saw before me
Once I was 20 years old
Soon we'll be 30 years old, our songs have been sold
We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
Soon we'll be 30 years old
I'm still learning about life
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother I'm still sorry
Soon I'll be 60 years old, my daddy got 61
Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
I made the man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month
Soon I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
Soon I'll be 60 years old
Soon I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can hold me
Soon I'll be 60 years old
Once I was seven years old, my mama told me
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
I love this song ! Excellent voice and perfomance ! Very special !
Respect from korea. Goosebumps all over my body. Amazed by the lyrics and the way you deliver.
Love from vietnam. I still hear this song in May,2019
This shit is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
+Toa Your grammar is shit.
SWIPE 11, your username and profile pic are both 🚮.
Haha i bet my Life on that you cant sing so just Shut up like all the other hater!,.... Goodbye!
Martin Vikan, what the fuck are you talking about?!! I have no idea if you and that other guy are from North America, but here when someone says "this shit is fire" (or in this case fire emojis,) it's a good thing. Perhaps you're trolling, idk.
Buuuut, this song is amazing so fuck y'all.
+Toa oh dude im sorry, i thought u meant that this was shit. 😂
1:57 "were not even friends bro"
Thought I was the only one who saw that guy shake his head😂
+Santa Claus ikr a lil insight to how fake it all is i think like kid cudi said if you a real person then the industry isn`t for you because there's alot of fakeness and fake people to it also lukas tells us in this song how he writes alot of "stories"
He actually is his friend, idk why he shook his head but that pianist always plays for him.
Maybe he was like "dude, look into the camera. this move was damn stupid. thats uncool man" 💁🏽
oh it's a thing musicians do i do that when i playing the piano, it's when you feel the music.
Brother Lucas, I have to state the facts. Brother, your writing skills, and singing is upon the best in the industry. However, "7-Years" lyrics, are hands down the best in this decade. Love you brother, keep up the wonderful job. MY wife and I look forward to seeing you in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Perhaps, we can show you around, and eat the great New Mexican Food.
God bless brother Lucas.
The most underrated artist. I mean he can blow the entire world. This dude deserve more respect and attention. Indeed great performance just like the official audio.

Some of these lines get me. " And some I had to leave behind my brother I'm still sorry" " it was a big big world but we thought we were bigger, pushing each other to the limits we were learning quicker

Amazing song. What a voice you have young man.
Lukas Graham é uma das ótimas revelações da música mundial. Canta com alma e paixão. Mt bom!!
The "soon I'll be 30 years old" hit hard. I'm 36. Then he goes back to "ill be 7yrs old" how does your life not flash through your head?
Is a beautiful song 😍
