My dad passed away 2.5 years ago. I was just about to go to bed at my dormitory at the University when I received the call from my mum. Raced to the hospital but couldn't get there before he left. No tears were shredded. Did not shred a single tear. Don't know whether if it was me not comprehending that he was really gone for good or if our relationship were just not that strong but I didn't really feel anything. For these past 2 years, I've graduated, got a job, and experienced a whole lot of other things. There are moments when I just feel 'I wish dad was here doing this with me or witnessing this' but I never shred a tear for him. Heard this song a few days ago when I was listening to the radio. Didn't really pay attention but I liked the rhythm. Searched for the lyrics and BAM. I don't know if it just fits perfectly into me or if I am projecting myself into the song, but its exactly how I am feeling. The only difference is: I now know who my daddy was, or is: he was my shelter and my lighthouse that I took for granted. He supported me and gave me the chance to be who I am. I miss you dad.
+Jason Cheung holly shit man this is great i mean my dad is still alive but i have went through times where i dont know what it will be like when he is gone and this comment has helped so much thank you. P.S one of the best songs i have heard in a long time.
The fact that this song isn't bigger really should tell you something about today's music... Absolutely beautiful production and the vocals are freaking fantastic!
Everyone needs to hear this song on a concert. I've heard it 2 times and I've cried both times. It's such a powerful song and he sings it so emotionally.
But can you imagine how hard it must be for him beeing confronted with the topic over and over again every time he performs the song. I think he wrote it for him self not for the crew. Think about it
Dated a single mother and also loved her son like he was my own child. When i hear this song it reminds me of them. Wouldve done everything for the little one, life is definately the cruelest when losing the ones we love... Hope he gets the life he wants. Sending you love mate.
The song is great, but can we talk about the video?? The melancholic vibe matched very well with the lyrics, and man, that last riot scene is very powerlful
Hope you're feeling a bit better day by day. My little brother passed away last year at the age of 24. Heart attack. I don't know exactly how you're feeling but I miss him every day. Stay strong ❤
omg this guy is so underrated, his music is just amazing, should be recognized because of all of his songs, not just because of 7 years.Sorry for my english im from chile ;)
+gianluca papa Hey Chile! Coming from Denmark and have heard his songs for years I can only agree. He is one of the few singers that have real talent and can get into the core of your own emotions. Check out Better than Yourself if you had not already. I have seen him cry on stage while he performed it, and of course I cried myself xD
I'm really sad about his lost.I'm really sad about his father and all of the bad things happen to him. But I'm really glad that I know him.I'm really glad that I know this emotional and such a good person.I'm really glad that because he can share his story with his voice while others still doing songs about asses. He has a real talent.I wish he could come to Turkey.But I know he won't. I loved him so much like I knew him for my whole life.I wish he could read this someday.
+Nicole Evans. He comes from a rough part of my city with a lot of drug dealers and he was poor I think, he sings about it in "Mama Said" try search him on Wikipedia
Got this song recommended to me by my aunt, after my dad had passed, I got hooked on Lukas Graham after that and today is one year ago my dad died :/ Shit doesn't get easier, hard to be happy when my dad missed my sons 4th birthday, missed seeing him ride on his big bike without training wheels. I do cherish the moments I got to see him play with my son, but damn it's still hard, which is ridicilous when you consider all the shit that is going on in the world, all the wars, killings... I mean dad got to be at least 45 years old in Sweden, so he had a good life albeit a relatively short one.
My father died 18 years ago and at the moment I heard this song the first time when I was driving I had to pull over and have a silent sad and glad moment thinking about him - he was 62 when he died. This song still gets me - and 7 years gets me emotionally aswell. Thanks Lukas et al.
Lukas Graham is One of the Best singers because he can show his feelings❣ And I think the reason why he is so good at it is because he lost his father😓
Truly one of the better talents I've heard in a long time. The deliver, the sound, the structure. It's just beautiful. I have so much connection to so many of these songs and I truly hope I get so much more from this talented artists. I grew up on hip hop and 70's classic with a side of John Denver and the Indigo Girls. I listen to just about anything and everything. I'm past 35 and Lukas is a talent unlike any I've heard in a long time. I got a chance to see him live... he was astounding live as well. A true raw talent. Keep kicking ass Lukas...truly, you are insanely talented.
the emotion in this song is top notch. Mr Graham you and you're band make the hair stand up on the back of my neck. Normal folk have these emotions but can't put a beat or lyrics to that emotion. You sir do that for us and we all thank you for it. Keep on keeping on Lukas.
This is one of the most amazing songs I have ever heard. The lyrics are so meaningful and I wish more people wrote songs like this because this is a piece of art. This is a masterpiece.
This is more than just music, so much more than just a good song.. There aren't many songs that have taken so much place in my heart and the tunes will always circulate around it.
Love this song, my dad will is still alive and will be 90 in Dec. We have an up and down relationship and just thinking what I would do without him. Just thinking about it makes me teary eyed.
No it deserves more views because this guy has the courage to sing about a tragedy that happened to him and if you have experienced that you would've felt how amazing is this song
I never realized what my dad did for me. I was to young and ignorant. I pray he knows now everything he's done has not was never unnoticed and will never be forgotten
This song has touched my soul like no other piece of art ever has. I never get goosebumps when litsening to music, but this work of art manages to give me goosebumps every time i litsen to it. I love your work.
Lost my dad when this dropped. Its such a powerful song that resonates. I truly hope I have the positive mental influence and impact on my kids as my father had on me. Thank Lukas.
Lukas stop making these, omg .. I can't take it .. they are too strong my heart literally breaks. GOD Lukas, now your music killed me. One thing to grow up in chris, but to be smart enough to understand it all while doing it .. damn, you really got to me, bro !!
I know how he feels.. I lost my dad when i was 6 yrs old. Once when i heard this song, i started crying, and i have asked my mom:" what am i going to say when my kids ask who my daddy was" and im 10 years old now.. But i still miss him, i almost died of hunger when he died... 😔 Why Cant He Come Back?
My father past away to. Almost 6 months ago and i miss him everyday. It is not at all easy to live without him but i try to remember what he would have wanted for me. He wanted to see me happy and live my dreams and not listen to anyone but myself. He would be crushed if he knew that his death caused me so much pain overall. And i think that is the same for your father. He is looking down at you with pride and love and if he coult talk to you right now, i´m sure he would say that you should be happy and that he loves you. I promise :)
I don't have a good dad, I don't know how I'd feel if he passed but this song is amazing, I wish I had the lucky to be in a family like the one Lukas sings about
Lyrics: Happy home Mama called about the paper turns out they wrote about me Now my broken heart´s the only thing that's broke about me So many people should have seen what we got going on I only wanna put my heart and my life in songs Writing about the pain I felt with my daddy gone About the emptiness I felt when I sat alone About the happiness I feel when I sing it loud He should have heard the noise we made with the happy crowd Did my grandaddy know he taught me what a poem was How you can use a sentence or just a simple pause What will I say when my kids ask me who my daddy was I thought about it for a while and I'm at a loss Knowing that I´m gonna live my whole life without him I found out a lot of things I never knew about him All I know is that I´ll never really be alone Cause we gotta lot of love and a happy home Magazines are writing stuff but I don´t ever read them Some of the folks I used to know would see and start believing That I would pass them by on streets and never reach to greet them I still remember folks even though I rarely meet them Don´t you know I miss the times when we used to hang Before twenty deep depended on a single man Before a single heart was broken by a single blow Before all our careers depended on a single show I grew up with a lot of love in a happy home Now I got a lot of cash and I'm on a road I realize privacy´s becoming difficult It´s all right now but what about when I am old I know my good friends now they´ll last the same ones that stood by me when my daddy past All I know is that I´ll never really be alone Cause we got a lot of love and a happy home I write a lot of songs will anybody ever read them You hear them on the radio but will you really read them Why do we have our idols and why do we wanna be them After we see them on TV we really wanna meet them Don´t you think they miss the times when they used to hang Before a fan base depended on a single man Before a single heart was broken by a single show Who´s gonna stand who´s gonna fall I really wanna know I grew up with a lot of love and a happy home My daddy used to play me vinyl but now daddy´s gone I used to practice with my mummy on the Piano I still get nervous every time I know she´s at the show Now my family comes first before everyone I had the perfect dad I wanna be the perfect son Though I really feel sometimes I am on my own I know I got a lot of love and a happy home
Lukas, most talented male singer in current music finnaly made it to no.1 in the UK. Being from Denmark its lovely seeing Danish people getting Denmark out onto the music world. Love Lukas
+Owen's World Song Contest We also have Volbeat! =) But i feel you man! The little country Denmark can produce music that is reaching a larger audience!
still feel the tears pushing on when I hear this in 2017, makes me feel like I ought to be a better son, appreciate my family more, visit them more often, get my act together, be a son who carry the family forth and make my parents proud.. danm...
Just goes to show how underrated this channel is! 4 Replies and a few likes as of writing this, even though you are verifieed, same as others! wow :(, cuse we dont have a lot of love~... and a happy home
i love this song so much.........i grew up without my father in my life because he was in and out of jail, even when he wasn't in jail he wouldn't bother to see his kids....i remember in school we were making cards for a roll model in our life and everybody in the class was doing one for they fathers and i did one for my mother because she played the mother roll and the father roll.....i didn't really know father until i was 14 and he didn't know how old i was, what grade i was in or what sport i played but i learn to forgive and forget my father for his mistakes songs like this make me so happy and forget thing like that
Mama called about the paper turns out they wrote about me Now my broken heart's the only thing that's broke about me So many people should have seen what we got going on I only wanna put my heart and my life in songs Writing about the pain I felt with my daddy gone About the emptiness I felt when I sat alone About the happiness i feel when I sing it loud He should have heard the noise we made with the happy crowd Did my grandaddy know he taught me what a poem was How you can use a sentence or just a simple pause What will I say when my kids ask me who my daddy was I thought about it for a while and I'm at a loss Knowing that I'm gonna live my whole life without him I found out a lot of things I never knew about him All I know is that I'll never really be alone Cause we gotta lot of love and a happy home Magazines are writing stuff but I don't ever read them Some of the folks I used to know would see and start believing That I would pass them by on streets and never reach to greet them I still remember folks even though I rarely meet them Don't you know I miss the times when we used to hang Before twenty deep depended on a single man Before a single heart was broken by a single blow Before all our careers depended on a single show I grew up with a lot of love in a happy home Now I got a lot of cash and I'm on a road I realize privacy's becoming difficult It's all right now but what about when I'm old I know my good friends now they'll last The same ones that stood by me when my daddy past All I know is that we'll never really be alone Cause we got a lot of love and a happy home I write a lot of songs will anybody ever read them You hear them on the radio but will you really read them Why do we have our idols and why do we wanna be them After we see them on TV we really wanna meet them Don't you think they miss the time when they used to hang Before a fan base depended on a single man Before a single heart was broken by a single show Who's gonna stand who's gonna fall I really wanna know I grew up with a lot of love in a happy home My daddy use to play me vinyl but now daddy's gone I used to practice with my mommy on the piano I still get nervous every time I know she's at a show Now my family comes first before everyone I had the perfect dad I wanna be the perfect son Though I really feel sometimes I am on my own I know I got a lot of love and a happy home
I can say, on behalf of Sweden, that this song is extremely wonderful and loved. I can't wait for more of Hedegaard's music! The song itself is so different from the mediocre, mainstream sound that we hear today, which is why I personally love it so much. Keep doing this and you will go far Rasmus! Best regards, Sweden. (And probably a lot of other appreciating countries)
I love this song. It really hits the feels. Today marks the 9th month since my dad passed away and not a day goes by where I don't stop thinking about him 😞
Im crying this song is so incredible and Outstanding!!! my dad I'd also dead and I just wish he could listen to your songs he probably would be obsessed with your music also your currently very popular in ireland right now :)
I stumbled across this song back in early 2015. I listened to it a couple of times and then forgot about it. A year later I heard '7 Years' on the radio and I recognised his voice immediately.
My 18 son dedicated this song to his creator & I believe my son is the most wise& smartest son/ kid I've ever had! & he also sings like a god but his dad will NEVER know that!
I love this song I listen to it a lot and I'll tell my kids to play it at my funeral I play it win my friend died I miss him it reminds me of him God bless you and your family appreciate life
Him ripping all of the tubes off of his face and grabbing that lonely key to walk barefoot to his house to be with the people who love him just broke my heart and put it back together simultaneously. 💔💜 Nobody will be there for you in the end except your loved ones. Remember that. #FamilyIsEverything

The song is great, but can we talk about the video?? The melancholic vibe matched very well with the lyrics, and man, that last riot scene is very powerlful
My Dad passed by 2016 and my mom left me 3 months ago so i found back to this Song.
Damn we are fucking get older.
My dad just passed away today and I remembered this song this morning and needed it. I can’t believe this song isn’t played more.
Hope ure doing well now

Awww so sorry 😢 hope you doing well. ❤❤❤❤❤
Hope you're feeling a bit better day by day. My little brother passed away last year at the age of 24. Heart attack. I don't know exactly how you're feeling but I miss him every day. Stay strong ❤

Check out Better than Yourself if you had not already. I have seen him cry on stage while he performed it, and of course I cried myself xD
+chrissr123 I think he cried because the song is about a friend he doesn't get to see and misses him
btw Eh Chile! Soy de México
Well, yeah ofc.. his friend is in jail, which is why he doesnt get to see him. For the full story check out Criminal Mind :)
Yeah I saw It like a month or two ago!:)

Just saw Lukas Graham perform this live. Brilliant song. Recommend you go to their gigs when you get the chance.
the emotion in this song is top notch. Mr Graham you and you're band make the hair stand up on the back of my neck. Normal folk have these emotions but can't put a beat or lyrics to that emotion. You sir do that for us and we all thank you for it.
Keep on keeping on Lukas.
This is one of the most amazing songs I have ever heard. The lyrics are so meaningful and I wish more people wrote songs like this because this is a piece of art. This is a masterpiece.
Imagine if the song was rapped
your amazing
This is more than just music, so much more than just a good song..
There aren't many songs that have taken so much place in my heart and the tunes will always circulate around it.
and my dad is my hero... he has helped me a lot...
Love this song, my dad will is still alive and will be 90 in Dec. We have an up and down relationship and just thinking what I would do without him. Just thinking about it makes me teary eyed.
This deserves more views!
Yap
No it doesn't
No it deserves more views because this guy has the courage to sing about a tragedy that happened to him and if you have experienced that you would've felt how amazing is this song
Your dad taught you to try. If you're a dad, just try. that builds a happy home.I love this song. Keep making them brother.
brings a tear to much eye's everytime i hear it... and really makes me think about how my own dad is becoming old :(

This song has touched my soul like no other piece of art ever has. I never get goosebumps when litsening to music, but this work of art manages to give me goosebumps every time i litsen to it. I love your work.
it occurs to me that the theme of his parents is very prominent in almost all Lukas' music. it obviously a massive motivator in his work.
This is a man who knows how to appreciate life, love, and those he cherishes. Beautiful.
I been playing this for 9 years I still get the same feeling 😢
I just wish there were longer versions of this, so when I am gaming or something i can listen to it... Great song!

Lost my dad when this dropped. Its such a powerful song that resonates. I truly hope I have the positive mental influence and impact on my kids as my father had on me. Thank Lukas.
Its been 20 years and my dad never called or came to visit... Left us at a young age! Song does comfort people!
Lukas stop making these, omg .. I can't take it .. they are too strong my heart literally breaks. GOD Lukas, now your music killed me. One thing to grow up in chris, but to be smart enough to understand it all while doing it .. damn, you really got to me, bro !!
This song makes me think of how lucky i am to have my father and mother alive❤️
Yes u r u really r
You are brother. You really are.
I had a perfect dad, I wanna be the perfect son 🙌🙌
the best part!!
Where has the years gone.. still 1 most beautiful songs with amazing vocals 🫶🏻 u here 2024 🤟🏼
he reminds me of my dad and my dad passed and i listen to him everyday :D
makes me cry every time I listen to it, I love u dad
I know how he feels.. I lost my dad when i was 6 yrs old. Once when i heard this song, i started crying, and i have asked my mom:" what am i going to say when my kids ask who my daddy was" and im 10 years old now.. But i still miss him, i almost died of hunger when he died... 😔 Why Cant He Come Back?
stay strong and know your dads looking down on you always!
R Silver Sørensen thank you do much
My father past away to. Almost 6 months ago and i miss him everyday. It is not at all easy to live without him but i try to remember what he would have wanted for me. He wanted to see me happy and live my dreams and not listen to anyone but myself. He would be crushed if he knew that his death caused me so much pain overall.
And i think that is the same for your father. He is looking down at you with pride and love and if he coult talk to you right now, i´m sure he would say that you should be happy and that he loves you. I promise :)
Jonna Stensland im so sorry to hear. :(
I'm sorry but Lukas Graham is one of the best song writers in his generation, if not the greatest. He doesn't get the credit he deserves.
I don't have a good dad, I don't know how I'd feel if he passed but this song is amazing, I wish I had the lucky to be in a family like the one Lukas sings about
I’ve heard this song a million times; how come I’m just seeing the visuals now???😢😢😢 Man’s so gooooood
Lyrics: Happy home
Mama called about the paper turns out they wrote about me
Now my broken heart´s the only thing that's broke about me
So many people should have seen what we got going on
I only wanna put my heart and my life in songs
Writing about the pain I felt with my daddy gone
About the emptiness I felt when I sat alone
About the happiness I feel when I sing it loud
He should have heard the noise we made with the happy crowd
Did my grandaddy know he taught me what a poem was
How you can use a sentence or just a simple pause
What will I say when my kids ask me who my daddy was
I thought about it for a while and I'm at a loss
Knowing that I´m gonna live my whole life without him
I found out a lot of things I never knew about him
All I know is that I´ll never really be alone
Cause we gotta lot of love and a happy home
Magazines are writing stuff but I don´t ever read them
Some of the folks I used to know would see and start believing
That I would pass them by on streets and never reach to greet them
I still remember folks even though I rarely meet them
Don´t you know I miss the times when we used to hang
Before twenty deep depended on a single man
Before a single heart was broken by a single blow
Before all our careers depended on a single show
I grew up with a lot of love in a happy home
Now I got a lot of cash and I'm on a road
I realize privacy´s becoming difficult
It´s all right now but what about when I am old
I know my good friends now they´ll last
the same ones that stood by me when my daddy past
All I know is that I´ll never really be alone
Cause we got a lot of love and a happy home
I write a lot of songs will anybody ever read them
You hear them on the radio but will you really read them
Why do we have our idols and why do we wanna be them
After we see them on TV we really wanna meet them
Don´t you think they miss the times when they used to hang
Before a fan base depended on a single man
Before a single heart was broken by a single show
Who´s gonna stand who´s gonna fall I really wanna know
I grew up with a lot of love and a happy home
My daddy used to play me vinyl but now daddy´s gone
I used to practice with my mummy on the Piano
I still get nervous every time I know she´s at the show
Now my family comes first before everyone
I had the perfect dad I wanna be the perfect son
Though I really feel sometimes I am on my own
I know I got a lot of love and a happy home
Thanks
Thanks
Kubo Steinhauser Thanks 👍
Thanks!
This song showed me a lot about my family , that yeah we have problems but they are solved. Probably my favourite song for the whole album
Lukas, most talented male singer in current music finnaly made it to no.1 in the UK. Being from Denmark its lovely seeing Danish people getting Denmark out onto the music world. Love Lukas
+Owen's World Song Contest We also have Volbeat! =)
But i feel you man! The little country Denmark can produce music that is reaching a larger audience!
+SilentKiller ATM is volbeat known in largely in England? I dont know him/her :s

A perfect song from a perfect singer (band) wishing he could be the perfect son for his perfect father. What a perfection!
His voice when he sings 'when my daddy passed' is ridiculously amazing. Chills.
still feel the tears pushing on when I hear this in 2017, makes me feel like I ought to be a better son, appreciate my family more, visit them more often, get my act together, be a son who carry the family forth and make my parents proud.. danm...
all his songs are so deep i love him
Perfekt
meget bra ^^

Waaaay back in the 90's, my granddaddy loved my poems....now my husband (of 30+ yrs.) loves and appreciates them too!💜🎶
i love this song so much.........i grew up without my father in my life because he was in and out of jail, even when he wasn't in jail he wouldn't bother to see his kids....i remember in school we were making cards for a roll model in our life and everybody in the class was doing one for they fathers and i did one for my mother because she played the mother roll and the father roll.....i didn't really know father until i was 14 and he didn't know how old i was, what grade i was in or what sport i played but i learn to forgive and forget my father for his mistakes songs like this make me so happy and forget thing like that
Lukas's lyrics are amazing and seem so true.
Because 99,99% of them are true
what about the last 0,01%
+benjamin Skriver they are true aswell😉
+benjamin Skriver Thats Destiny
+Polintalu u mean strip no more?
2016 such a good song found it about a week ago can't stop listening to it
Bobby shmurda
Yass same
I came back to this song after 5 years and it hit different
this artist has such wise words and thoughts in his music ! he blows me away ..
this song still gives me the chills. the way Lukas speaks his actual thoughts through music is just something else. love it.
Mama called about the paper turns out they wrote about me
Now my broken heart's the only thing that's broke about me
So many people should have seen what we got going on
I only wanna put my heart and my life in songs
Writing about the pain I felt with my daddy gone
About the emptiness I felt when I sat alone
About the happiness i feel when I sing it loud
He should have heard the noise we made with the happy crowd
Did my grandaddy know he taught me what a poem was
How you can use a sentence or just a simple pause
What will I say when my kids ask me who my daddy was
I thought about it for a while and I'm at a loss
Knowing that I'm gonna live my whole life without him
I found out a lot of things I never knew about him
All I know is that I'll never really be alone
Cause we gotta lot of love and a happy home
Magazines are writing stuff but I don't ever read them
Some of the folks I used to know would see and start believing
That I would pass them by on streets and never reach to greet them
I still remember folks even though I rarely meet them
Don't you know I miss the times when we used to hang
Before twenty deep depended on a single man

woooow the lyrics! I didnt know there are still people that care about their family more than themselfs
I love you songs, it's like their all telling parts of your story.
thats what my dad said
It is
Yup your grammar is broken
that's what they are about his past and future life
Thank you lukas graham for writing such a beautiful song.
Probably one of the best voices ever..no doubt, while still honouring almighty Freddy!
I can say, on behalf of Sweden, that this song is extremely wonderful and loved. I can't wait for more of Hedegaard's music! The song itself is so different from the mediocre, mainstream sound that we hear today, which is why I personally love it so much. Keep doing this and you will go far Rasmus!
Best regards, Sweden. (And probably a lot of other appreciating countries)
Har du set min taske?
Its not hedegaard thats singing. Its Lukas Graham ;)
I Think Hede is the one who made the beats and the melody
I love this song. It really hits the feels. Today marks the 9th month since my dad passed away and not a day goes by where I don't stop thinking about him 😞
StackerPentecost so sorry for your loss

I stumbled across this song back in early 2015. I listened to it a couple of times and then forgot about it.
A year later I heard '7 Years' on the radio and I recognised his voice immediately.
7 yrs. was how I, too 1st heard him!🤷♀️🎶

My 18 son dedicated this song to his creator & I believe my son is the most wise& smartest son/ kid I've ever had! & he also sings like a god but his dad will NEVER know that!
I love this song I listen to it a lot and I'll tell my kids to play it at my funeral I play it win my friend died I miss him it reminds me of him God bless you and your family appreciate life
This song learned me thay home isn't only a house, it can be a person too.

"I had the perfect dad, I wanna be the perfect son"
Oh man the tears, the manly tears man ..
I love that song since 2014, I want to cry every time after hear this, this is too emotional...
It hits so deep...
i nearly cried when i heard this song
it touched my heart
Hvordan kan en sang så god og med så speciel tekst ikke blive vist mere??
Ved jeg heller ikke
Fordi han er dansker, desværre = /
Babalo Soldier Men helt ærligt. Justin Bieber som laver ligegyldige sange er mere kendt... -_-
Natasja Louise Allerup Yep, sådan er musik industrien...
Natasja Louise Allerup Så længe du bare er kendt er kvaliteten af den musik du producere ikke så vigtig længere.
Pure voice, no gimmicks.
Him ripping all of the tubes off of his face and grabbing that lonely key to walk barefoot to his house to be with the people who love him just broke my heart and put it back together simultaneously. 💔💜
Nobody will be there for you in the end except your loved ones. Remember that.
#FamilyIsEverything
Lukas is my childhood 😍 I love him so much, his songs make me cry. No words for him.
