It was written by the band members and produced by The Dream Team, being released on 20 November 2019 along with " Champion of the World" in anticipation for the album's release. The track appears on the Sunrise side of the record. [1] An animated music video for the song directed by Aardman Animations' Åsa Lucande was also released. In the clip, a female protagonist is shown in a small rowing boat in the middle of the ocean as she tries to go into the unknown. To further promote the song, the band performed it live in Jordan and BBC Radio 1 in London. "Daddy" managed to appear on the New Zealand Hot Singles chart at a position of 38 and on the US Hot Rock & Alternative Songs at number 17.
The music video for "Daddy" was animated by Aardman Animations and directed by Aardman's Åsa Lucander. The music video for the song was premiered on 20 November 2019 and features live action puppetry, digitally painted sets and 2D animation. [2] The music video shows a girl who is lost at sea, alone in a rowing boat and sailing towards the unknown, symbolising the girl's memories of her father. [3] Gil Kaufman from Billboard magazine described the video as "mind-bending". [2]
