7 Years

Lukas Graham is a Danish soul-pop band comprising vocalist Lukas Graham Forchhammer, bassist Magnus "Magnúm" Larsson, keyboardist Kasper Daugaard and drummer Mark "Lovestick" Falgren. Their self-titled debut album went quadruple-platinum in Denmark and yielded three Top 5 singles, including the chart-topping "Drunk in the Morning." That success caught the attention of Warner Bros. Records who signed them in 2013. Graham's upbringing is reflected in this song: He was raised in a Copenhagen commune and smoked weed for the first time when he was 12. His father died in 2012, triggering an introspective period that led him to this song.

This piano-led, mid-tempo track was their first Europe-wide hit, topping the charts in several countries, including Austria, Denmark and Sweden.

The song follows the progression of Lukas Graham Forchhammer, from making friends at age 7 to at 60 when he hopes he will "have a lot of children who will hold me."
