In an interview valeska explains this song its about the day she left her home country and her mama drived her to germany. Her mom doesnt like to drive so Valeska made a special music mix for her. When she says Drive darling, she is singing to her mama and about the day she left her friends and family

Listening to their music is like coming home. If I could describe my taste in music with one word, I would simply say BOY.

BOY are without question an excellent duo. High calibre songwriting, exquisite vocals, and great musicianship. This particular song is just one of numerous examples to illustrate their competence and creativity.

I'm sad, we don't hear of them very much anymore. I hope they'll come back with something! I've seen them in Montreal 7 years ago, that was an amazing night and there were so humble and lovely!!

I cry every single time

6 years later, found this song again, its getting me through some tough shit

this song is so addictive ....just love it

This was sung at my graduation today! Love love love

forget the million views, these girls are front page of reddit. gotta be a proudest moment.

listenin for years, never gets old

In an interview Valeska explains that she made her mother mix tapes and labeled them "drive darling". When she made the decision to move to Germany from Switzerland her mother (mother hates driving) drove her and the listened to the mixed tapes as the drove. I get a Jason Bourne vibe from this vid. Makes me wanna visit Europe, except for the getting shot part. I don't have to leave Texas for that.

A video with a story. I thought those were lost since the 90s.

Just love this song. Especially from 2:52 and to the end. And is has a important message, when they toss their harddisks in the river, it comes to show that illegal downloading is not a joke.

ich habe mir bei dem lied irgendwie immer vorgestellt dass die beiden nen spontanen roadtrip machen...im sommer! :D

wie kann man nur so eine schöne stimme haben :-)

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS DUO... I REALLY APPRECIATE MY FRIEND WHO SHOWED ME "BOY"

in the beginning of the video, you see them leaving and Valeska is bleeding because she's leaving home which is a part of her. The creepy men are the mean people who try to stop her from pursuing her dreams. Sonja acts as her mother and tries to protect her. They throw the tapes in the river because in real life, every year for her mom's birthday she writes her a song and records it on tape and titles it "Drive Darling" so they're throwing them away to forget the past. The run away to become t

So much emotion and beauty in this song

I got this cd for $2:50, best $2:50 I have ever spent

I can't express how much I love sonja and valeska, both are really talented and I really want to meet them before I die.

Heart breaking .... mystic sounds .... Klassiker!

Das Lied ist einfach super! Sehen wir uns bald in Köln. liebe euch~~

I love this band so much.

Drive drive drive. !!!!

Wow. What a story.Great Video/Band! Was für eine Geschichte. Richtig tolles Video! Richtig tolle Band!

used to drive through Canada with my life-love...her life was the best part of my life.. i miss her. little one

冬景色の寂しさが音色と合わさってたまらないですね。素晴らしい雰囲気のロードムービー

Sonia and Valeska are the band 'Boy', and moving to the same city made it a lot easier for them. They started in small clubs, and with small internet clips (long before these 'official versions') and became famous that way. No production company was interested in them until quite recently, I think.

GOD I JUST LOVE THEM

I've been listening to this the whole month. As a foreigner in the US, most people like me settle down in a city for a while, and it's normal that friends come and go. It is my first time to see the official video, and it surprises me that it's winter, cuz I've imagined the story in summer time, and totally different feeling. Love the song, and whole album.

You close the door and start the motor I roll the window down I raise my hand and wave goodbye To neighborhood queens and clowns and Children in the front yards They hide and seek and laugh I can almost hear you thinking How could these days go by so fast And no rear view could picture What we leave behind Drive darling, drive darling, Drive darling, drive darling, drive A silent conversation No words cause there's no need We let the tapes mix up the years And press repeat and press repeat The trunk is filled with records And books and tears and clothes I'm smiling on the surface I'm scared as hell below And no rear view could picture What we leave behind Drive darling, drive darling, Drive darling, drive darling, drive Good morning freedom Good night lullabies Drive darling, drive darling, Drive darling, drive darling, drive And when we arrive The hardest of goodbyes You will dry my eyes Somehow you're always by my side The one who holds my kite And watches over all my flights And no rear view could picture What we leave behind Drive darling, drive darling, Drive darling, drive darling, drive

The MOST beautiful voice I have heard and one of the best songs.

Das Video ist so verdammt tiefgründig wie die Musik der Mädels. Ein riesengroßes Kompliment an die zwei! Das Video ist auf jeden Fall seine Interpretation wert! Ich habe es leider noch nicht ganz durchschaut, aber hoffe, dass ich's bald schaffe! Ihr seid so unglaublich großartig! Ich liebe Drive Darling. Ich liebe BOY!

A surprising combination between real kindness and true strenght rises from within those two girls.... Lovely sensation right now...

das video ist großartig. wer zuwenig phantasie hat soll halt weinen :3

2020 💕 Love and Light to anyone seeing this 💕

Love this so much.

No words 'cause there's no need.

I need the second part of this video!

listen to song on repeat, so drove on. now I'm out of gas in the middle of nowhere, HELP

This breaks my heart, but in the most lovely of ways. This band deserves any listen it gets.

sometimes i serch on youtube for new music that i do not hear on the radio in myn country. And see here.. found something again that is just greath. Real art of music. If only thi skind of music was on teh radio i would have myn radio turn on more. Will buy a album from this group for sure . Thanks for sharing.

beautiful roads

I love this song ...

der 5. Maerz- mein Geburtstag :) Gruesse aus Polen!

Que som agradável e prazeroso! Parabéns!

The video is one thing but the song is based on Valeska's move from Switzerland to Hamburg, the far North of Germany, to join Sonia, the other girl (who is the driver in the clip). Her mother drove her. It may be worth listening to the text.

Shes bleeding cause she left her home to persue her dreams. She's homesick but she keeps driving. Then they throw the memories in the water. Its about the pain of transition and sacrifice for making it to where your heart is taking you. It was her mom who actually drove her though in real life even though she did not like driving. She loved her daughter and drove her away to her dreams. She left the nest to learn to fly on her own.

Sooo beautiful...

To me, it seems the song is at its best from 3:26 til the end, and that's when all the drama in the video happens too

"A silent conversation..." so lovely ^.^

Beautiful song, beautiful car! Thanks for sharing.

Kinda perfect song.

This album should be made available on iTunes in India!

lots of love from Vietnam

oh Mann, ich liebe die beiden :D wie sie da so durch den Schnee kullern, herrlich. zum Video - ich glaub sie mussten einfach dringend was hinter sich lassen (nein, keine Festplatten, die Festplatten waren wohl eine Metapher für Menschen, Orte, v.a. Erinnerungen), und dann haben sie das getan, und dann gings ihnen wieder besser ^^

Beautiful song

Just found your videos/songs. I purchased your album off iTunes! Good stuff.

wow, ou guys have something magic and I bet if it weer just you two together, it would be more magical.

They amaze me.

awesome road to drive on

Well, now I want to know what happens next!

this makes me happy

you dont have too.. just enjoy this fine music.. cheers

She said on a interview the song is about leavin' her home country and how difficult it was, so the video it's about it too

yeah... ihr fährt aus meinen meinem Dorf raus ! :D Langnau am Albis und danach über den Berg... wie geil ist das den!!

Die beste Stimme die ich jemals gehört habe :) Einfach einzigartig, 100% Wiedererkennungswert

Such a great video too Wonderfully shot and cleverly done Beautifully stark snow and our two ladies on the run ... Awesome indeed

i am listening again and again again again darling again

Love this song by the way

Oh my goodness!! I'm suddenly proud to be Swiss-German *jaw dropped to the floor*

Good song..great video...quite tense...like it

Friendship can be powerful.

I know they're not a couple or anything but for some reason, I love seeing Sonja (the brunette) looking at Valeska (the blonde). I guess there's a sort of tenderness almost, behind her eyes every time she looks at her (in this video and almost all other live acoustic videos). I feel all warm and fuzzy lol.

One of the best bands at live I've ever met. lots of love from South Korea :)

잘은 모르겟지만. 모두 좋아서 게속 듣게됩니다.

I simply love this song, and the video clip, too. It has a wonderful vibrancy.

es hat ne weile gedauert, aber jetzt habt ihr mich, einfach wunderschön eure musik, besonders dieser song hat es mir angetan, ganz klasse, macht bitte weiter so, herrliche intensive songs die ihr macht, ich bin begeistert.

brilliant song, love it all the way from South Africa loving this group gonna spread the word

They're so beautiful! And not 'beautiful' in the way that seems to be the standard these days, they're natural beauties. So very talented too! They're my newest role models.

our beautiful song, Perfect!

cara soh eu que fico triste ouvindo essa musica e me arrepio toda?

Lost count of the number of listens, but goosebumps always start at 2:50 and continue until the end.

:D I was basically saying that I think the meaning of this video is that the girls had to leave something behind.. to get rid of something (memories?) and that once they did, they felt better again :)

I love this song. I love BOY.

beautiful

Lovely

ich verstehe schon, was die beiden mit dem video zum lied aussagen wollen, aber ich hätte mir das video trotzdem nders vorgestellt.. :) sehnsüchtiger.. voller farben auf das vergangene.. und fernwehblickend in die zukunft.. das hat mir der text vermittelt, als ich es mir vor kurzem zum ersten mal durch zufall im cd-ldaen angehört habe :) aber absolut toller song!!!!! absolut!! :)

Juhu! Endlich kann ich es wieder sehen!

love from Chile! ♡

Wow, what a find. Love.

And press repeat, and press repeat. :)

To illustrate her 'hurting' from leaving it all behind. When I left home for college I felt like my heart was bleeding the further I got from home, too. =P I think it is trying to show that sort of feeling in this video.

Best part of the song is around the 2:50 minute mark, when the music starts to take over. Loooooooove that part

Cool girls, cool song, cool SAAB.

This song is so perfecttttttt

SNOW. OLD CARS. TWO ABSOLUTELY TALENTED WOMEN. I'M IN LOVE.

lovely

wow instant love

such a talented couple. luv. from TR.
