Highasakite - Heavenly Father Lyrics






Ever since I heard the howlin' wind
I didn't need to go where a bible went
But then you know your gifts seemed heaven sent
Just lead me to a choler, dad, that's the thing

I don't know how you house the sin
But you're free now
I was never sure how much of you I could let in
And I'm free now
Won't you settle down baby here your love has been
Heavenly father
It's definitely lava
Why you don't carry other names?

Heard about a day where it dropped the Know
To go another day as we learn to close
Cause I'm a known coward in a coward wind
But you're free now
Just turn around now and you count to 10
To see you go now
Well I know now honey that I can't pretend
Heavenly father
Is whose brought to his autumn
And love is left in end

I just been up here for God damn years
Can you see now?
Filling up holes with God damn fears
I am free now
I know about it darlin', I've been standin' here
Heavenly father
Is all that he offers
A safety in the end

  1. L.... ....

    If you're looking for another great version of this song (albeit way too short), look up Mina Lund's audition on the Voice of Norway :)

  2. l.... ....

    God, I love this song.

  3. E.... B....

    Excellent cover! Haunting vocals and music that gives you chills. Well done.

  4. S.... B....

    Fantastic! Needs more Glockenspiel

  5. c.... ....

    this song is about coming out.

  6. J.... N....

    Very sad that the band split up. Although the name remains the band is not genious anymore...

  7. C.... S....

    Die Sängerin ist leider nicht so begabt wie die super Instrumentalisten, schade für das schöne Stück!

  8. s.... k....

    nothing compares with the opera sidney version, but very good try. good good

  9. M.... J....

    This song was unbelievable tho, but skip those intros and outros ffs...

  10. K.... T....

    thật hay thật tuyệt vời !

  11. M.... G....

    Holy Flugabone!!! That was fucking amazing. Can’t believe I haven’t heard this before.

  12. C.... M....

    Cathartic tears

  13. H.... A....

    Best version EVER, including the original. No offence intended Bon Iver fans!

  14. G.... L....

    Amazing version. Obvi, nothing beats the opera house version but this is great and her voice is amazing to listen to. Thank you for this.

  15. d.... ....

    downvoted for obnoxious intro music

  16. N.... D....

    This and Ellas are my 2 favorite covers.

  17. M.... M....

    The singer sang very well, but it seemed like a recitation, no emotion, no true feeling to it

  18. K.... P....

    This is Beautiful !!

  19. M.... C....

    Holy shit.

  20. S.... D....

    this will probably always be my favorite triple j cover of all time

  21. N.... W....

    What is the guy drumming on in the background?

  22. J.... ....

    After Bon ivers opera house version you just can’t recreate that energy , in my opinion this was lacking , there wasn’t much emotion in the vocals and not enough patience in the music

    J.... ....

    LOL... listen from the start, rather... dang

  23. M.... K....

    A friend of mine played this song and I thank for her for it❤

  24. D.... M....

    Her facial expressions ruined her great voice. Lol

  25. B.... B....

    Not bad, nobody sings this with conviction like Justin though.

  26. R.... P....

    She looks and sounds like Kimbra

  27. f.... ....

    Please check mina from the voice Norway eingong this, by far the best verson

  28. S.... C....

    Better than the original! Ingrid and the guys are really so talented. Fly high guys!

  29. A.... ....

    worst vocalist i've ever heard. Best background band i've ever heard.

    A.... ....

    Worst? You need an ear transplant.

  30. H.... R....

    Favorite! <3

  31. R.... S....

    mina lund heavenly father search that on youtube, you will never ever regret it - the sensation on the voice Norway, you will be like "o.O ....." speechless

  32. A.... M....

    "I just been up here for god damn yeaaaaars." every time she says it, I'm feeling something so powerful. weird but awesome feeling

  33. k.... ....

    very good

  34. B.... ....

    Interesting, and probably the inspiration to the far better Mina Lund-version; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTtUX66g2Is

  35. N.... ....

    So good, but Mina Lund is better:))

  36. s.... s....

    very beatiful version

  37. W.... I....

    The best version, ex æquo with Mina Lund. 🤓

  38. s.... ....

    Not too shabby from this, another Norwegian, artist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTtUX66g2Is

  39. M.... S....

    Listen to this version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTtUX66g2Is&start_radio=1&list=RDFTtUX66g2Is
    Magnificent voice to an awesome song!

  40. M.... S....

    Not as good as Mina Lund,s version. Just saying. Her voice is just epic. This is just a bit tame in comparison.

    M.... S....

    Beautiful but not as good as Mina Lund's version.

    M.... S....

    I was thinking the same thing she is epic, but this is still good thou

    M.... S....

    I believe Mina Lund was inspired by Highasakite's version, because this version is completely different from the original version, and this recording is about 4 or 5 years old. I still regard this as the best version ever.

    M.... S....

    Oh wow I so agree! I've never watched the Voice but stumbled onto her audition here on the Tube. Holy God what an amazing voice.

    M.... S....

    @T. A Soligard I agree, when i heard Mina on The Voice i instantly recognized this cover as her inspiration, but honestly Mina's voice better suits this song than Ingrids voice does. Both versions make me teary eyed though every time i hear them, i dont even know why it happens.

  41. E.... B....

    Literally sobbing my eyes out. Wow. If you don't feel anything you must be dead.

  42. E.... B....

    Freakin awesome! From USA!

  43. L.... N....

    Beautiful song 😊😍
    I heard this song for the first time yesterday on The Voice Norway and I hope y'all check it out because it's just a stunningly beautiful performance and she may win it all if she continues the same way 😉

    Yes. Just yes.

    Here from THE VOICE - Norway 2019. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTtUX66g2Is

  46. J.... M....

    That was absolutely beautiful.

  47. I.... ....

    I love this but oh my god that outro made me JUMP

  48. A.... D....

    So good.

  49. H.... M....

    why does she sound like miranda sings

  50. E.... C....

    Love this cover so much🥰

  51. D.... O....

    heavenly

  52. H.... B....

    NORWEGIAN RADIOHEAD

    Amazeballs

  55. L.... S....

    That voice is going places..

  56. L.... S....

    Best cover

  57. Q.... ....

    This is one of the best songs I've ever heard in my lifetime.

  58. M.... F....

    música top

  59. a.... ....

    The accent butchered it, she sounds like she should be singing indie punk rock.

    a.... ....

    well , it's her second language. I think the accent is beautiful , butchered ? Not at all

  60. J.... D....

    the Bon Iver track is rather bland after hearing this first. The masterful nuances are all but missing in the original.

  61. S.... L....

    this leaves me both breathless and speechless everytime.

  62. f.... d....

    OMG I FELL INLOVE WITH THIS SONG ALL OVER AGAIN ♥️♥️♥️

  74. L.... P....

    The Voice is on Point. Just amazing. Really really good

  75. 1.... ....

    I still like the original. These are incredible musicians, but they take it a couple steps too far. Do what you guys do.

  76. S.... S....

    I've never loved the flugabone more than I do right now

  77. N.... d....

    Came here to rinse my ears after listening to Lorde's version!

  78. P.... ....

    Pure beuty. Thank you.

  79. F.... ....

    I was very skeptical goin in but hot damn...

  80. R.... ....

    You gotta wonder the kind of person who dislikes a masterpiece like this is, you know?

  81. I.... B....

    going through a chaos period right now and all Highasakite has done is made me cry out all of my pain.

  82. J.... H....

    Love it!

  83. b.... ....

    It's a fluegelhorn for fucks sake...smh. dude doesn't even know what instrument is in his hands. Check out Blast, playing Malaguena for some awesome FLuegelhorn playing. Bald dude is world class.

  84. J.... M....

    Beautiful.

  85. H.... *....

    Brilliant. Came here after watching Lorde's cover. Which I did not like.

  86. P.... M....

    Alright guys let’s get this straight, Bon Iver live at Sydney> Highasakite> Milo Bloom (if you haven’t seen this one it’s incredible)

  87. R.... S....

    and i'm free now...

  88. R.... S....

    I'm almost afraid to check one of the covers after this one, only because I don't want to have to love another cover more than I love this one.

  89. R.... S....

    Tell me why I haven't been listening to Bon Iver's versions since I've come across this Gem of a rendition?
    #redpillbluepilllife
    #win=win #

  90. R.... S....

    one word...WOW!
    oh, 3 more...
    I LOVE THIS!
    😍😍😍😍😍

  91. a.... ....

    This cover is amazing, obviously. The way they softened the instrumental was called for, I think in the original version the slightly grating nature of the back track has an artistic meaning and is meant to grate somewhat, but it's nice to listen to it softened. Also, I think the singer here has some really good vocal instincts even though her voice isn't my favorite. She makes vocal choices that I don't expect which is impressive to me anyway lol. Overall so very well done!
