来自挪威的两人团体——Kings Of Convenience,在2001年发行了首张专辑Quiet Is The New Loud后,他们的名字就一直与Belle & Sebastian、Badly Drown Boy、Matthew Jay、Elliott Smith、Turin Brakes等乐手在一起,并被人直比为现代版的Simon & Garfunkel。但之后他们除了发行了一张将Quiet Is The New Loud专辑重新混音的作品Versus外,Kings Of Convenience这个名字好像就不见了,团体间的约束仿佛就跟这着张专辑发行给松了开来。Erlend Oye从家乡卑尔根搬到了柏林,转向拥抱舞曲节奏,当起了DJ,还发行了满是80气息的个人专辑Unrest及一张DJ混音合辑DJ Kicks,Eirik Glambek Boe则留在故乡,返回学校攻读心理学学位。
Artist:Kings Of Convenience
Song:I'd Rather Dance With You
I'd rather dance with you than talk with you
So why don't we just move into the other room
There's space for us to shake, and hey, I like this tune
Even if I could hear what you said
I doubt my reply would be interesting for you to hear
Because I haven't read a single book in years
And the only film I saw, I didn't like it at all
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with youI'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
The music's too loud and the noise from the crowd
Increases the chance of misinterpretation
So let your hips do the talking
I'll make you laugh by acting like the guy who sings
And you'll make me smile by really getting into the swing
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing
Getting into the swing, getting into the swing...
(Getting to the swing...)
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
I'd rather dance, I'd rather dance than talk with you
I'd rather dance with you
I'd rather dance with you
