Above all, he loves jazz, singing sad songs, he especially likes cackling chickens (that are real live chickens, non crispy baked McDonald's menu). He likes to compose on the piano, altough it stands in room of both sisters.
Isak first came to public attention by taking part in X Factor, Sweden, 2012. According to viewers' choice poll for performances, he finished 3rd after passing through ten rounds in Swedish TV4.
For opening performance at the ten-week TV series X Factor, he chose a song by Gotye 'Somebody That I Used To Know', the finale was provided by David Guetta's 'Titanium'.
In 2013 Isak has requested to enter into the promotion event 'Teen Hoot' in London. Teen Hoot UK act as global stage for the best up and coming teen artists around the globe, a small initial step on the career ladder. Teen Hoot was founded in Nashville, TN, USA.
On November 30, 2013 his time had come, Isak took Teen Hoot's stage by storm in front of an enthusiastic audience in London, and became public favourite straightaway. He performed 'Domino' (Jessie J), 'Wrecking Ball' (Miley Cyrus), just like 'Say Something' from A Great Big World featuring Christina Aguilera.
Since his first public appearance two years have passed (an eternity in adolescence). But 72 hours after New Year's Eve, on January 3, 2014, his debut single 'Long Live This Love' was out! And - straightaway - the second single 'Say Something' followed close behind, both released by Record Company TEN, Sony Music Entertainment Sweden AB.
Almost on the same day, he released one year later, on January 13, 2015, the single 'Falling Into You', followed on the heels of his debut EP 'Volume One' on March 26, 2015.
Single 'Remember' out September 1, 2016.
Isak announces next album 'Volume Two'.
Isak does not allow himself to rest for a moment, he works tirelessly for new songs. So he even released 2 singles in June 2017, first 'Jennie' on June 8, shortly followed by the next 'I Don't See You' on June 29.
In April 2017, Danielson's track "Ending" was featured in a choreography video posted by Maddie Ziegler and in September 2017 the song was also featured on American program So You Think You Can Dance and again in the American television series Cloak & Dagger. These events saw an increase in his streaming numbers around the world.
In April 2018, Danielson released "Broken", the lead single from his forthcoming debut studio album. Danielson said was inspired by a friend who had experienced a number of sexual assaults.
In July 2018, Danielson released "Always", which was followed by "I'll Be Waiting" in September and "I'm Falling in Love" in October. On 19 October 2018, Danielson released his debut studio album Yours. Yours peaked at number 27 on the Swedish charts.
In January 2019, Danielson released "Power" which was followed by "Bleed Out" on 5 March. Both tracks were the lead singles from his third EP, titled Run to You, which was released on 29 March 2019.
In September 2019, Danielson released "Silence", his first on new IOD label, after signing with Universal Music Group.
In April 2020, Danielson released his second studio album, Remember to Remember Me. The album title is a message to the listener to follow along on his personal journey, where no topic is too delicate to explore. In the songs "Light Up", "Silence" and "Religion", Danielson reflects on his own relationship with anxiety and his message that no one should ever feel alone in their struggle with anxiety.
Per Magnusson from Aftonbladet gave the album 3 out of 5 saying "Isak Danielson makes pop music so emotional and sad that it almost forgets to breathe" and that "he sings well beyond his age".

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
she keeps me from closing my eyes
keeps me from sleeping at night
don't let me go
we've been talking a while
looking at everything bright
... she asked me i'm fine
just don't let me go
you were the only one
you were the only one
the only one
maybe i could be your only price
maybe you could ...
even when i falling back
he still believ i try
maybe we could be a symphony
and maybe i could lern a play
you could write our story
at the end of the line
she keeps me from holding her tight
trying to make sure she's fine
don't let me go
please let me go
there came a time
you were the only one
you were the only one

maybe i could be your only price
even when i falling back

The song "Ending" by Isak Danielson revolves around a narrative where the singer is in a relationship that has reached a crossroads, and he is unsure about what the future holds. The lyrics depict a sense of uncertainty and vulnerability, as he tries to convey his emotions while struggling to cope with the situation. The line "we're at the end of the light" serves as a metaphor for the end of the relationship, and highlights the possibility of darkness that lies ahead.
The singer expresses his desire to hold on to the relationship, as he pleads with his partner not to let him go. He talks about how she keeps him from sleeping at night, which could represent how the uncertainty of the relationship keeps him up at night. Despite this, there is a sense of hope in the lyrics, as he suggests that they could be a "symphony" together and writes their story, while acknowledging that life may not always be "like."
The chorus repeats the phrase "there came a time, you were the only one," emphasizing the importance and significance of the relationship in the singer's life. The lyrics are open-ended, and the song ends with the phrase "I just write our way," suggesting that the future may be uncertain, but the singer is determined to write the story of their relationship together.

why do i listen to this and hear a man in doubt about 2 women? the verse one he use "she" .
"She keeps me from closing my eyes
Keeps me from sleeping at night
Don't let me go"
I'm imagining that its the woman he cheated with keep him awake, that he keep thinking about her. and how she wishes he will never let her go.
that might be the reason why the pre-chorus change to "you" meaning his official partner.
"There came a time
When you were the only one
You were the only one
The only one"
how they try to make the relationship work, how his official partner still believe in him and still trying to hold on. doesn't matter he keep cheating and falling for the other woman.
'Even when I'm falling back
You still bеlieve I tried'
that's where he suggest may be they could live like this, with him going back and forth between 2 woman? that by the end he might finally know how to juggling between them
'Maybe we could be a symphony
And maybe I could learn to play
You could write that story
While I just ride the wave (this could mean he took advantage of the current situation)'
even more on this part, when the other woman want to end this, its him who trying to hold on. that he want to make sure she is fine.
'We're at the end of the line
She keeps me from holding her tight
Trying to make sure she's fine
Don't let me go'
and by that, his official relationship stumbled down again and crushing like all the effort now useless. that finally his official partner now want to end this, that finally she stop waiting for him to decide and want him to let her go.
'We took hundred steps back
How you said "goodbye" was sad
Now when I think of it I...
Please let me go''

We're at the end of the line
She keeps me from closing my eyes
Keeps me from sleeping at night
Don't let me go
We've been talking awhile
Looking at everything bright
Wrote and she asks me, I'm fine
Just don't let me go
There came a time when you where the only one
You were the only one
The only one
Maybe I could be your only prize
Maybe you would light it wide
Even when I've fallen back
You still believe I tried
Maybe we could be a symphony
And maybe I could learn to play
You could write that story
While I just ride the wave
We're at the end of the line
She keeps me from holding her tight
Trying to make sure she's fine
Don't let me go
We took hundred steps back
How you said goodbye was sad
Now when I think of it add, "please let me go"
There came a time when you were the only one
You were the only one
The only one
Maybe I could be your only prize
Maybe you would light it wide
Even when I've fallen back
You still believe I tried
Maybe we could be a symphony
And maybe I could learn to play
You could ride that story
While I just ride the wave
But life is never like that
But life is never like that
She took me in and now I feel
Still know life's never like that
Life's never like that, life's never like that
Maybe I could be your only prize
Maybe you would light it wide
Even when I've fallen back
You still believe I tried
Maybe we could be a symphony
And maybe I could learn to play
You could write that story
While I just ride the wave
While I just ride the wave
