English translated from French:

There were two, they spoke little, wanted to repeat as calm, take time to nap. They had a clear idea of what they wanted, what provision, which room, what a sound, and showed themselves impassive face of our attempts to impose our rhythm. We used to govern the evenings of pocket , push and motivate artists to warm the public to write an outline. But then, no, we were not the masters. The teachers called Erlend and Eirik, the Kings of Convenience .

Shortly before the arrival of the public, I tried to convince them to start in another room than the one prepared. Erlend me off: "I'm very anxious. Let me feel comfortable, and you'll see ... . Eirik behind, smiled: "There is always a moment when something happens that was not expected."

It was as if they had any writing. They were waiting for the public in a back room, playing quietly. We have joined with their signal, they told us where we sit, we have requested not to applaud, to rub our hands instead. Erlend was obsessed with the investment, he would turn his back to anyone, everyone hears it, and asked calmly. We soon realized that all he wanted was to gently crack the shell.

And it was deliciously market. We initially felt that there was something unusual, a little crazy when we saw them to look. There was not even singing, just a few arpeggios floating in the air and created a bubble, a small cocoon in which we sat and carefully. Eirik and Erlend not leave your eyes. And then they sang together, eyes kept returning to the other as if it was important to be always together. Never let go. There was an intimacy between them quite extraordinary, far deeper than its use in the hackneyed clichés of modern music. She sees herself as she means in the eyes and voices that do more than one. Quite simply, the last time I saw people as accomplices in their song is when Fleet Foxes - also great harmony of bitter - had taken possession of the Grand Palais.

They got up, danced by Erlend mimicking a trumpet, they agreed that it screams and applause, we were requested to take back an old chorus back and descend the stairs with them. We were all trembling with wild epiphany that they had caused, when we went to listen to songs in the last two gigantic room downstairs, in contemplation silent about two boys. There were two, and we were with them.
