GOTTHARD's song "Lift U Up" — which was written about motivating each other and working together as a team to achieve goals together — was selected to be the official song of Switzerland's national soccer team for the recent European championship. The track was chosen as the winning title in a survey held by Switzerland's biggest newspaper Blick.

The new version of "Lift U Up" was remixed by German producer Mousse T., who has previously worked with TOM JONES, NO ANGELS and EMMA LANFORD.

GOTTHARD's video for the original version of "Lift U Up" can be viewed below.
