Kings of Convenience
My favorite Folk-guitar Duo, Kings of Convenience!
Kings of Convenience are two Norwegian guys from Bergen, Erlend Øye and Eirik Glambæk Bøe, both born in 1975. (The man who is wearing big glasses, is Erlend Øye. The other man is Eirik Glambæk Bøe.)
They met at school and at 16 they started playing together. They formed a rock band called Skog (forest in Norwegian) with two other friends.
They also released 'Versus', a compilation of remakes, remixes and collaborations.
Their second album, which
is released in 2004,'Riot on an Empty
Street' was loved by all over the world. And their recent
album, ’Declaration of Dependence’ released in 2009.
Mrs. Cold
(‘Mrs. Cold’ is the list of one ’Declaration of Dependence’)
This song is one of the popular song of ‘Kings of Convenience’. This song
was background music in CF ‘KANU’
(I love Gong-U who is CF guy. <3 His image matches to Coffee well.)
Above this, kings of convenience’s songs are used in CF music frequently.
Homesick (Lotte Delmonte CF)
Cayman island (Hyundai Automobile I40 CF)Stay out of trouble (Can Maxwell house CF) … etc
These songs are very good too.... : )
I’d rather Dance with you
This is one of my
favorite song! This song’s music video
is very interesting. In this music video,
Erlend Øye is dancing with girls. His dancing is very cute and humorous. (In
fact, He is my Ideal type man.)
And I like this song’s lyrics. ‘I’d rather dance with you than talk with you.’ It’s very cute lyrics. Isn't it?
Kings of Convenience! I will love your songs forever!

답글삭제Hi Young-Seo! It's me, Seung-Woo. I actually didn't like this type of music. But after I read your posting my mind is totally changed. Kings of Convenience's music is really peaceful and cool. I become a fan of this musician when I listen the music named Mrs.Cold, kkk. Anyway your posting is really awesome=). Bye bye.
답글삭제I really enjoyed listening to these sample videos! This band is very mellow and soothing to listen to. Also the pictures of them are very stunning. I like how one man's hair is bright red and in another picture one man is wearing the vivid green scarf.
