"Summer 98"?! OMG they were so young!

[Mkisabell]

[CSMFriedrich]

Who's watching this in 2012?Thumbs up... -__- lame but I really wanna know so..Thumbs up!

[Nahkranoth8]

[ofermisk]

Good time with this one :)

[11raljr11]

this song makes me not care that i have elephantitus

[stikkitomatri]

drink 8 oz. of Bacardi Rum while listening KOC... good feeling

[brombeertee]

so true.

[DrumShag1986]

Great Song, great band, but the sound quality of this is really bad !

[maneiave]

Why this girl appears also in the toxic girl video?

[naustbakken]

@maneiave because she's Eirik's girlfriend

[MrMaryJanes]

Im stoned =)

[na92cho]

Failure is always the best way to learn ♪... i love this song!

[Clewayze]

I wish this would repeat by itself.

[idelta777]

@Clewayze add "repeat" before the dot com in the URL

[TheAharrison31]

@idelta777 more people should know about this...nice

[CmanSingleton]

I agree with davedenisetigg

[davedenisetigg]

I love Kings of convenience!

Brilliant music!

Give us another album please fella's??

[wjp666]

i remember about 12 years ago this was played liked every 10 minutes on the dating channel on sky, of all places. what was the deal with that?

[phantombru]

this kind of music is everlasting kind of music... i like...

[kathechocolate]

to where all you hear is water sounds, lush as the wind upon a tree. I wish I could travel overground to where all you hear is water sounds, to capture and keep inside of me. Failure is always the best way to learn, retracing your steps 'til you know, have no fear your wounds will heal. Failure is always the best way to learn, retracing your steps 'til you know, have no fear your wounds will heal.

Using the Guardian as a shield, to cover my thighs against the rain, I didn't mind about my hair. Your jacket may be waterproof, but knowing the moment you get home you're gonna get your trousers changed.

[puddles17ful]

Where are you now?concerning your music?any more tracks(brilliant),myself off to Ibiza for summer.

[decupero]

Kings of Convenience é uma dupla notável, pois a suavidade e a simplicidade de suas canções é o tempero certeiro para agradar qualquer ouvinte, mesmo muito exigente. Ecos do Simon & Garfunkel são bem-vindos, sem descaracterizar o estilo desses dois talentosos músicos noruegueses. Excelente!

[KoiChannel]

look up "while the city sleeps - back when we knew", similar soundscapes.

[CheGuilherme]

40 people didnt learn with the failures.

[bigdsears]

0:01 for instant reset... enjoy

[xseyax22]

Genius!sin palabras.es un gran musico.

[leirgauk]

Oh, and damn, Eirik's woman is HOT!!!

[leirgauk]

I'm Norwegian. and I've never heard of these PURE GENIUSES!!!!! They remind me of the smooth psychedelic album Phanerothyme (undoubtedly one of the best albums of all time) by the Norwegian band Motorpsycho.

[HoMeRuNMonkEY1]

FINALLY A MILLION VIEWS WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

[francisjv15]

Have no fear! Your wound will heal. Inspiring lyrics! Kings of Convenience are a bunch of geniuses.

[ansettw]

@francisjv15 They think out of the box my good sir :)

[Weck2149]

Haven't had a song like this on my mind for so long in a good way... awesome song.

[mrblendxx]

nice :)

[csusbkid]

I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

[robbishcan]

windy days walking alone.

anonymous to everyone but the wind.

what do you learn when you're on your own?

[bigdsears]

I think that one dude ripped off that guys casette and now he's banging his old lady

[smartinez5878]

cool stuff

[thumb023]

but knowing the moment you get home, you're get those trousers change...

[MrCutpaste]

so european..

[TheYeahIDo]

@MrCutpaste I that a bad or a good thing? S:

[MrCutpaste]

@TheYeahIDo good thing... i really want to go over there... im sick of this shitty small town.

[justplayfm]

This video was just added to a music playlist at JustPlay.fm

[happsoon]

Wait - listen closer. It's not a sax, it's a trumpet. But that is even more beautiful. Even if, by that, they rather sound like Belle & Sebastian (which i like just as much).

[lonewackywahler]

@happsoon

the more i listen to them, the more i feel sure that they dont sound like Belle and Sebastian, they might be heads of a similar beast, but no, they are far more...sublime

[MsbShared]

Great song.... I am going to upload it in HD on this channel :) Probs tomorrow sometime anywho visit my channel later to hear it in HD as it should be heard.

[CriticaLxThoughX]

This song gives me strength when I really messed up something...

[em23]

played this on my mp3 while riding the thalys high speed, what memories ;)

[dephtful]

I'm sad because someone has lost the saxophone in the CD version.

[happsoon]

@dephtful Same with the strings. Seems like somehow they tried to dress up the song to make it a single. Does anyone knwo if this version has been played on the radio?

However, one of the most comforting songs of all time, even of KoC.

[sandra82390]

me encanta..

[Desleesongs]

Thanks for posting this video. I'm a singer/songwriter from Dublin and this band has inspired me to write and play in a completely different style. The videos on my page 'New York' and 'She is Art' were inspired by Kings of Convenience. If you're a fan of Kings of Convenience then give my songs a chance. Maybe someday I can be as good as them. Cheers, Des

[fabioravaschio]

@Desleesongs

I gave a chance to your songs..and I think "New york" is very very good, pure KOC style...

keep it up and good luck !!

[Desleesongs]

@fabioravaschio thank you. Live Long Kings of Convenience.

[bigdsears]

I think that good looking guy swiped that other guys tape and is trying to sing his shit and pork his old lady

[PlanetofIce35]

I love Quiet is the New Loud it's my favorite album to play on a cloudy/rainy day...that and Corinne Bailey Rae.

[jujuthegringo]

Wow great song,great band

I know what you mean about England so glad I'm not there any more

[qiyamah]

This sums up my time spent trying to live in London, all the time struggling... glad I'm no longer there, but I learnt the lesson of this song.

[MikeIzerman]

replay after replay after replay after replay.....

[camilabo]

@MikeIzerman

Me too.!

[fermaet]

This is not the album (CD) version? Is it a special edition?

[awfulguitarplucker]

a Norwegian is you...after listened to this song

[sleepwalkerstation]

awesome duo! brilliant album! inspired me a lot in my songwriting as well. thanks guys!

[Samariaeyes7]

their music helped me to understand some parts of my life

[Carla1992Bruny]

how nice! listen to "four letters peko"!

[atmosearcher]

Please excuse my ignorance, it's trumpet not sax.

[atmosearcher]

I bet Bergen isn't like that in January, I've heard it costs 10 Euros for a beer too. This is the single version by the way. The album one has no sax or strings and has different drum fills. Quiet is the New Loud is an album I come back to over and over again, just superb.....

[fermaet]

@atmosearcher Great, I got my question answered. This version is even better.

[siemensmobile]

Why this version have Saax? & in album doesn't ? :(

[konami1983]

@siemensmobile easy my friend because is a "versus" version

[rejanepim]

i think this girl was sick. she's so anorhexic or bulimic.

[thebutcher0666]

@rejanepim or maybe your just a judgmental fat ass... but i dont know, just a guess

[ScuderiaGrinde]

Sure the best male duet since Simon & Garfunkel! I love the boys and their music & lyrics. Hope they tour again in europe

[thumb023]

From which album is this?

[thumb023]

@thumb023  Quiet is the New Loud

[thestrokesfan1984]

VOGLIO ANDARE IN NORVEGIA

[slayhax]

where did they filmed this?

[BorlandRIP7]

Wonderful intro..pure sugar pop song..It gives me the will to leave France and live in Norway

[awfulguitarplucker]

to whomever still figuring out norwegian (and nordic whatsoever) people as "cold ,.and emotion-less" folk...jut listen to them , and then to Cardigans as well!

[aafanador]

All of a sudden norway seems as a happy place to live in.

[Ianni1980]

I agree

[sentinovember]

their songs are too sweet. they taste like an artificial, norwegian paradise.

[annaalv]

Luciana ha incominciato...

[spuds4ever]

Who is the girl who keeps on appearing in their vids?

[adrielygoes]

@spuds4ever Eirik's wife.

[Luisrox123]

@spuds4ever It's Eric's GF! (:

[awfulguitarplucker]

[indieboikilla]

These Gods are not only the remedy for stress, but the cure for Cancer as well. (:

[EverythingZen14]

This band is amazing. If I ever feel anxious, stressed, or I'm just plain under pressure, their music raises my mind back out of Hell to remember the gift of love for life.

[punktuete05]

@furtherinfusion Please, tell me!

[sandra82390]

[dancer40a]

[plica06]

And the moral of the video is? Don't live in London, you'll be all alone and unhappy. Instead live in Norway where the scenery is beautiful and the women even more beautiful.

[007thelastlover]

that's true

[eurnadia]

does anyone know who is the girl featured in this video? she was also in Toxic Girl vid.

[sarralatutu]

Eirik's grilfriend or wife! ^^

And he has child with her!

[VerwirrungInPerson]

@eurnadia

She is the girlfriend or wife of Eirik.

[tindersticks4me]

great song :)

[jorgecds]

I wish i could share this music with people who apreciate it... People are so afraid o being lonely for a moment... Kings gave loneliness a new meaning, its just a moment to be happy with yourself. Peace

[freddyah]

@jorgecds nice words

[priyahp]

i was just thinking this myself.

[shaggymichelle]

@jorgecds i couldnt have put it so well. Being alone doesnt have to be a bad or sad thing! love you kings of convenience

[bigdsears]

@jorgecds True words right there. I have friends who go from one relationship to t he other all right in a row w/o taking a break. I take breaks to find myself and have fun in between relationships and to go to topless bars.

[maslachak15]

@jorgecds tnx :)

[enkiitu]

In my opinion the arrangement is completely unnecessary. One of the virtues they have is that they don't need a big production (hence Kings of Convenience). And the orchestra and trumpet adds nothing to an already great song. Of course it doesn't kill it either, the song's too good.

[bedoelHe]

If you like this you could try The Whitest Boy Alive. One of the men behind Kings of Convenience is also in it.

[oolhoo]

@bedoelHe The Whitest Boy Alive is soooo good, everyone should go check it out.

[USEPartyPeople]

@bedoelHe and you could search up erland oye. he is the main singer and he has a few songs out under that name if its spelled correctly.

[AtGiza]

the uvva guy looks like topher grace

[bigdsears]

To me this means to never worry about failure. Find out what when wrong, retrace things, get it all lined up and then spring forward.

[orangepatriot85]

killer specs man!!!

[RabbiJochanan]

Although I love the version on "quiet is a new loud", I like the trumpet on this a lot!

[benediiicteuptodates]

Eirik is hot :D

[peterpanpatrick]

these guys are sick!! so relaxing to listen to :D

[hotterThanU101]

clay aikens fan much??

[kornik777]

When I was listening to this video at 2 am i realized many things I haven't realized before. It opened my eyes.....

[anglosaxonqueen]

new album yeah!! it comes!

[uvisa]

album?
