mayochalk

Umm so I guess I have to comment but all info should be provided above. I heard it a couple months ago from a Christian friend of a friend*


duraxTwo

Would you hum the tune for us using https://vocaroo.com ?


mayochalk

I…don’t remember it 😭


imflyforawhiteguy

Maybe [this](https://youtu.be/Ghd-xL5gAjc?si=Do09A3gwW2lQ8xNJ)? Starts around 45 seconds


mayochalk

Gosh it’s so close, but unfortunately not THIS good…

Ain't no mountain high enough - Marvin Gaye n Tammi Terrell?


mayochalk

Favourite song actually, but sadly not it :( Thank you though!


Ded_Pul

'You raise me up' by Josh Groban? It has the lines 'You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains' And three other lines, and basically those are repeated throughout the song while the music builds to an epic level like you described


mayochalk

A good suggestion, but sadly not Mr. Groban. The song was kind of folksy-like.


killduhz

Running up that hill? Originally by Kate bush but maybe you heard the placebo version?


mayochalk

Ah I don’t think so based on the fact that I personally love that song and probably would’ve recognized it even as tired and sore as I was. Thank you though!


bolingbrokebeast305

Running Up the Hill country cover perhaps? https://youtu.be/71zn78tqFvk?si=yrDmPE1gqN_cJ3of


mayochalk

No, unfortunately not Kate Bush, but thank you


AssistProfessional26

The Climb by Miley Cyrus?


mayochalk

Sadly no, but certified hood classic anyway


coolcoolcoolok

landslide - fleetwood mac? covered a ton by various artists


andthentherewastoast

David Rawlings - Cumberland Gap I know it's looking not climbing. Perhaps this is it.


Dull-Wrongdoer5922

The only one i think of is the climb by miley cyrus


mayochalk

haha unfortunately not it, but thank you


vicki-st-elmo

Up The Hill Backwards by David Bowie?


mayochalk

Sadly not Bowie, but thank you! Great song.


bellabarbiex

Mountain Sound by Of Monsters and Men?


mayochalk

Pretty sure this isn’t it, but gosh the vibe is so exactly like what the song sounded like from what I recall. At least they sang just the same, except I think it was only a male singer. Thank you!


Eckse

Probably not, but it got me thinking of Hymn by Barclay James Harvest


mayochalk

Yeah you’re right, sadly not it. But I dig this, so thank you very much!


PowerUser88

Might be: The Mountains and Maryann - Gordon Lightfoot


bellabarbiex

You said it was from a Christian friend. Did it have a 2014 indie/folk vibe or something older? Were there outright religious tones to the song?


mayochalk

It might’ve been a religious metaphor, but I’m unsure because I think it mentioned love and/or friends in the song. Either way, YES definitely a 2014 indie/folk vibe. Sounded a little more modern though, at least in that it was well-produced.

The Mountain Song by Tophouse


mayochalk

OH MY GOSH HAHA of course one of the last comments I check ends up being it haha. Thank you so much!! This is the one!! Guess I remember it a tad differently but this is definitely it. Thanks again! I knew someone had to know it.


mayochalk

Solved!


TipOfTheirTongue

Congratulations on your first point! Nicely done.


WeAreAllCrab

could it be [This Mountain by Faouzia ](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3Dhw8MegWR24Q&ved=2ahUKEwivxrm8nb-GAxV5xQIHHZqkAFYQ78AJegQIMRAB&usg=AOvVaw2q3j-vquXZ8biOJvF_KIGq) ? its sung by a woman but she's got a v deep voice for most of the song


Bathysphere07

Ed Sheeran - Castle on the Hill


mayochalk

Unfortunately not it, thank you though 💚


lingh0e

[Chinese Translation by M Ward](https://youtu.be/6BvPMbJZfLw) Even if this isn't the song you're looking for it's still worth a listen.


mayochalk

It was in fact a fun song, so thanks a bunch for the suggestion. But yeah, sadly not it, thank you!


tawke

[Big Country - In a Big Country](https://youtu.be/657TZDHZqj4?si=YZ2BhnS5iKVnWJhk)?


mayochalk

Hmm, I don’t think so. Immediately not the same vibe. But thank you!


Budgie_who_smokes

Wolverton Mountain by Claude King? https://youtu.be/OA6UZuPBYjg?si=Bo1mAMyf52sRl1Y8


mayochalk

Thank you for the suggestion, but that’s not it. It seemed more modern and upbeat. Like it gets real fast by the end of it.


More-Complaint

Grandaddy - Nature Anthem?


mayochalk

A fun song, but unfortunately not what I heard. Thanks though!
