@gapdef yeah it makes sense.. that you're alone and being alone makes you feel happy because it makes you feel different. it's a good but sad feeling.
Love patdngo's transcript - reminds me of the old Maxell 'me ears are alight' ad. BTW, it's 'My life, it's a riot ...' and '25 postcards' not 'plenty of fire postcards'. I know they're Norwegian, but they do make sense in English.
I doubt Erlend and Eirik would be so greedy and focused on money as to dislike people enjoying their music before the album is being sold. With extremely commercial artists I could see how it would be a problem, but not with a band like Kings of Convenience.
I've just come back from their concert in Amsterdam and Eirik said that usually bands go on tour to sell an album, but they make an album so they can go on tour. So I doubt that they mind if people listen to the album beforehand. As long as people keep coming to their shows (which they will, the gig in Paradiso was sold out and stacked full with people, who all seemed to love it)
They played in Watt on the 10th of November, so you only júst missed them. I don't know if they're gonna tour together again, but if they will it's not gonna be for a couple of years, I think. Jammer hoor. Grtz, een mede-Rotterdammert. ;)
From the looks of it, most of us will be buying it anyways. I feel so dirty listening to these before the CD comes out lol, but I bought the single and plan on buying the CD as always.
I've loved listening to this tune and have been desperate waiting for some new tracks. However, don't be unfair on the band. Take it down and wait for the album. Cheers.

Why? Why so quiet? Oh my, so mysterious...
Country singer she asks....
Why lies... its a riot i am climbing barricades and empty street supplies....
When im done fighting shadows, plenty of fire, postcards in a box in my room...
Telephone conversations, gas slowly leaking out of a heart-shaped balloon.
It's a dangerous game that i'm not sure if i could keep playing for long
It's a dangerous game thats a very fine line and one step is gone... out of no cost to play... that's why, i got nothing 2
