Two kings

"what we build is bigger
than the sum of two"


I longed for this their new record. Not the longing of an admirer. It was just like you pine for seeing some old friends, of whom you lost track for a while.

It's a great pleasure to see they're still sound, staying glued together and still on creation of those graceful songs. Something more playful, more delightful is to be heard. Nevertheless, it's them who's singing my thoughts so calmly like in the old days.

Erlend und Eirik need no empires. They're always the two kings in my place.

"It was inspired by a situation I saw a lot of my friends get in to. I really like reading magazines about science, you see, and when people fall in love, they make this kind of drug in their bodies so they become addicted to each other physically.

Nature makes things so that the drug lasts for three years, so if they're together they're just on a natural high. Nature makes sure that people get three years to sort out if they want to be together for life or not; that three years is a try out time. Then they wake up and it's a 'Whoops, what am I doing here?' kind of thing? Then they are forced to sort out if they love the person, like real love, or if it was just a trick.

I just read this article and I looked at all my friends since I was a kid, and I saw that it always happened after three years, it's so strange. You think you've never seen people so much in love and then after three years, like precisely, they ring the phone in the middle of the night and it's , 'I'm coming over' and they come over and say 'I don't love him, what is it? I don't look forward to coming home anymore. What's wrong?' Then at that point I could actually say, 'Well listen, it's science.'"
