Emeli Sande - Daddy [Lyrics Video]

[@KelliDiMera]

I love how she uses daddy to describe being dependent to drugs. Fantastic song.

[@rickettawatkins2033]

I NEVER knew that is what this song was about 🤯

[@lonewolf_101]

Thank you, I just clicked on to that, she's awesome 👍

[@jerrilynmock3491]

🙄 love her voice, i feel the words, heartbreaker ❤

[@jerrilynmock3491]

[@olitom710]

I don't know wow

[@MaryLee-ym5cm]

I can totally see a double meaning here. I get the drug thing but I can also see it being about a relationship gone wrong. There are soo many dead beat dads out there and so many women hungry for love that they settle for ANY kind of love because it's better than no love at all. But thankfully we can find unconditional love with our heavenly Father, because God says that 'He will never leave us nor forsake us'! And that is something that every woman and person should understand. Nothing that this world has to offer can fill the void that only He can fill, and "Nothing can separate us from His love". You are an amazing artist Emeli, I like your class, depth of your lyrics and your angelic voice. Keep singing!!!

[@SR-vq4wy]

Does heavenly Father holds you when you're down, kisses you when happy, makes love with you? Just saying that that kind of love is not a replacement for women - man love.

[@raelynnjade8819]

Mary Lee what if you're gay?? Cause sometimes.... I really like rainbows

[@aliciaa4000]

I'm confused by your questions. And this was a year ago and you probably don't care but...1.God loves all of his children, no matter what sexuality you are. He does not love you any less because you are gay, or bisexual, or any other sexuality other than heterosexual. In my opinion, I do not see homosexuality as a sin, but many Christians/Believers do. To those people, I say ''Everybody is a sinner. We have all sinned greatly, as a group. In God's eyes, all sin is equal. (understandably, murder and lying are two very different things and the consequences of both sins are massively different but to God sin is sin.) In God's eyes, we have all sinned. You can not judge a person by which sin they have committed, that is hypocrisy and the bible says itself that God detests hypocrisy. By being homophobic, you are sinning. So lol stop please''. But please don't be disheartened by this, because we have been forgiven! And Jesus has died to save us from ourselves! To save us from sin! And total condemnation! He has freed us! 2. God fulfils and satisfies you in ways you may not understand yet. He cannot satisfy the sin of the flesh (at least I think that's what its called lmao idk). He cannot fulfil your lustful desires in the form of sex, but Mary Lee never mentioned sex. God's love is something beautifully perplexing. We will never understand God's love for us, because it is so complex. He is so complex. He tells you himself in the bible that you will never understand his ways. To feel God's love is to truly live, and not only in the physical realm but in the spiritual sense as well. God's love fills you up with joy, happiness and satisfaction. It is truly amazing. God's love is better than any kind of sex you could ever experience I guarantee you.

[@aimee_bx9852]

You do realise God isn't all loving right? You clearly know nothing about Christianity, it's a much more hateful and brutal religion that you're letting on, what you class as a sin or how you want to see 'god' has nothing to do with the truth of it. Believe whatever you want and I'm glad if you find comfort in religion but don't lie, wither it's because you're misinformed or just stupid isn't the point.

[@jasstranders7525]

Aimee_B X Actually god is all loving and i know that you will say “ then why is there sin??” Because this world is corrupted god didn’t create sin or suffering but because we have free will we are free to make that choice because the most loving thing he can do is to give us freedom to make our own choices, if he did give us a choice or freedom people will moan that they don’t have a choice however people are still moaning when they are given a choice. I know what suffering is like first hand my dad was very abusive to my mum and i have very bad trauma from that ,I’ve had 9 years of counselling and I’m only 16 yet god has been there through out and without him I wouldn’t be here today I have seen demons and angels and so I know that god is loving even tho sometimes it hurts but I know he’s there he doesn’t want to see you hurt so he wants to help you but if you have a barrier between him and you blocking the relationship Jesus died to have with you then you won’t feel the love and the affection he has for you so I hope you find it, as he has a plan for you and wants to help you

[@mariaelenaberges1444]

at first i thought it was about a toxic relationship, double meaning !!

[@123wwe1111111]

I think it's open to Interpretation depending o your situation or knowledge, but def about addiction.

[@Emily1xox]

sameee

[@byebye5203]

Same tbh

[@OshunGuanima]

Those toxic love are almost always addictive, like a drug you can escape from, but you are always at the risk of falling again.

[@ariellecoloma2351]

This is just one of those songs that gives you chills, brings up scary memories, and just gets to you..

[@bechri9573]

same with me

[@Arileee]

My dad has been dealing with drug addiction for about 17 years... I don't know why but this song make me cry..

[@Arileee]

Judy Capistrant Yes Yes! Thank You!

[@ptmaster78]

Judy Capistrant people that have an addiction don't need prayers they need professional help,the altering mechanisms that coincide with substances abuse wont create a rationale.So Ari its important to show love and support most importantly,but that alone cant help,it does facilitate the process of rehabilitation but the best advice is to seek a counsellor that can help both your father and the family because it has obviously affected everyone !

[@LimaAguilaar]

Dirk Smit Prayers definitely help it gives great hope! ^.^ but God has blessed us with counsellors so we shall use them, and have faith in God cus through God all things are possible :)

[@gordongecko5950]

Bullshit

[@desireeoldie7455]

this is about drugs when she finally quit she got her family back and she got her pretty smile back. She promised her sister that she would never do drugs again. Her friends keep telling her stuff that would persuade her to do drugs and she realised that she could never do drugs again. then she started acting like she wanted drugs again after that she ended up takin them again and almost forgot how it felt to take drugs she thought the drugs would help her and keep her stable and even though she didnt want to take them she never said no

[@malanierichards1888]

not contradict your interpretation, but she actually said that daddy was about obsession andthe word was used as a metaphor for advise...so idk

[@jacquilinewingate5102]

I think it was about smoking

[@hollywood122rash5]

I genuinely think it's about addictions period.

[@islabee5130]

Umm no it isn’t. She never took drugs. This is no joke. My sister went to school with her at Alford Academy and she sang at my parents wedding. She never took drugs. This song is about addiction. Not drug addiction. She did smoke for a while. But she never took drugs

[@islabee5130]

Oh ye but when she was heartbroken she did turn to drugs a couple times

[@ivybuu1]

no words can describe how much i love this song.

[@markobeocanin5690]

Wow, just wow.

[@Zailerify]

Heard this the other day in the pub for the first time. Absoloutly AMAZING song. What an epic beat.

[@Lilony789]

umm this is AMAZING!! and i absolutely love her lyrics!!!

[@lauramurray5221]

Such a great song. Emilie is under rated. I listened to this song all the time at one of the most painful scary times in my life. I can't believe I survived that period. So painful.

[@ciarajohnson9744]

Is it wrong to think this song reminds me of the struggles in overcoming drug abuse? Cos for some reason it does.

[@mida8261]

I think it is about overcoming drug abuse.

[@maiadacabbage4054]

After reading these comments i will never see this song the same way again -.-

[@davidthomson5983]

i just read your comment and i think your so right. i was a drug addict for 6 years and it was always my daddy ran to. now im 5 yrs clean my wee dad passed away last yr, im stronger so your right.xxx

[@dexterleigh]

This song is about using drugs or alcohol to help you get over a guy. "Daddy" refers to something that takes care of you, makes you feel better, forget your troubles. Its about when you find out someone doesn't love you back, they weren't who you expected, you're feeling incredibly lonely & hurt, & you would do anything to feel better/just stop feeling anything at all. "It can be your daddy, if you take it gladly" means that if you drink it, smoke it, whatever, you will at least forget.

[@PlanetApplez]

This still a banger

[@emilyswierdlife645]

This is a special song for me 😖

i love this song i need to listen this at least 10 times a day

[@mahsajasminedarushian2876]

Ok guys, i've been trying to understand this song by looking at all the comments and I actually think the message she's trying to get across is when you're in love and broken the easiest way to numb the pain is to take drugs. Love makes you do stupid things. Thats just my opinion... let me know your views?

[@aaronlove2943]

Nyah it is all about drugs and having a habit him/daddy is the drugs.

[@ambarineqader3380]

Amazing song, good work on the lyrics!

[@joejo976]

what a great song it is....

[@faehammlerschmit7365]

"daddy" is being used as a slang for cocaine

[@mariayvette1027]

Ohhh...thank you I was just trying to figure this song out.

[@kylerhodes1694]

how do u know

[@birdydun]

Kyle Rhodes because she's smart

[@faehammlerschmit7365]

Because I listened to the lyrics! "He's out your system yeah it took you awhile" "put it in your pocket don't tell anyone I gave ya" ...

[@tracy4616]

Kyle Rhodes kissed you on the lips and opened your eyes, you had to catch your breath got such a surprise and you almost forgot how it was to live in his lies - coming up on coke

[@Kkaypalmer]

she is a lyrical genius omg!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mizzsjazzy]

this song isn't really about fathers guys its about a woman being dependent on drugs to save her and she says it can be your "daddy" not in the father daughter way but as in any man... like when women call their boyfriends or pimps or sugardaddys "Daddy"

[@Conscious_casper]

This is about turning to God.

[@Duskullite]

I turned to smoking and drinking at a young age due to how stressful mine and my mums boyfriends relationship got for me, he's meant to be my dad but never acted like it so I depended on weed and alcohol from 12 to late 14. I've stopped all that now though
