The Symbol of Convenience!!!


Yes! like its name, indeed they are the kings. Kings of Convenience!

I've known them several years ago from my relative. She introduced me to them when I visited her. It was common, too mellow and obviously not my music taste. But now, for your information, all of their songs are listed in my playlist, and they're played EVERYDAY! On and On!

I don't know what kind of magic that they spread to their listeners. It is, in fact, beautiful, soothing, unique, refreshing, soft. It is really good! I love their voice, how they manage their voice, who's gonna take the high and low tone, the composition of the music, how the lyrics are written down, how they got the inspirations. They are perfectly composed songs! :D

For me, no need to watch their live performances because listening from my playlist is just like having them right beside me and play their songs only for me. What a selfish! hehe. But hey! I feel that way every time I listen to them.
(Oia, but I willingly accept if there's someone who give me a ticket :D )


I believe that everyone was born to do something different with others. The fact? Erlend Oye and Eirik Glambek Boe. They are GENIUS! They were born to be a clever and creative musicians.

Sorrow, happy, pride, confusion, admiration, romance, love are reflected in their lyrics which are beautifully written. It's all about common things but they cover and deliver it differently. Not cliché.

Aaaahhhh... They are so goooooooddddddddddddd!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here are the lyrics of Rule My World from their new album, Declaration of Dependence.

You set yourself above
That all forgiving god
You claim that you believe in
Your kind is gonna fall
Your ship is sinking fast
And all your able men are leaving

Only someone
Who's morally
Superior can possibly
And honestly deserve
To rule my world

I talk before I think
You shoot before you know
Who's in your line of fire
So somehow we're the same
We're causing people pain
But I stand and take the blame
You scramble to the night

Only someone
Who's morally
Superior can possibly
And honestly deserve
Only someone
Who's morally
Superior can possibly
And honestly deserve

To rule my world (10x)

Explain me one more time
When they kill it's a crime
When you kill it is justice


ENJOY!!!
