Lyrics:
Rocky Trail
One more time
Let’s say you give me one more time
One last chance to speak again
Let’s start from what we left unsaid
and here we go
Brave enough to go climbing a wall
so high that no sunlight is seen through winter
Brave enough to go traveling around the world
without money to eat or sleep for
Seeing what you can do with your hands and feet
I feel there is no question about it:
Almost anything you can imagine
Almost any goal
You will get there
I wish you had been more of a talker
Not the kind that is just flapping his lips
And not the kind that looks away
But learns through his eyes when somebody is watching
Maybe you could have told me
There was a world on your shoulders that needed lifting
Maybe I could have helped you with that
The weight is not easy I know
But you never know.
I thought your shoes were good
I thought they would take you to the end of any road
I thought your back was strong
I should have carried you to the top of the rocky I trail
I should have carried you to the top of the rocky trail
How am I to know about your problems and your load
I am blind to what you show
I am waiting to be told
I never ask
How am I to know about your problems and your load
I am blind to what you show
I am waiting to be told
I never ask

Listening to this feels like coming back home.
A decade after the last album, this sentence sounds so right...
:(
It really does
Why? where have you been ? 😜
Except you cant because covid travel restrictions
And when the world needed them the most, they returned.
JAJSJAJA I love ur coment
Esto es real
You're absolutely right !🤝
That's right, I was needing and now I smile smile smile, in Peace 💚
Exactly 🤘🏻
In this music video, I think they tried to combine on some previous music videos, in order to invite us to "reminisce" together. Those soft colors give a sense of peace and those various colors give the impression of being full of love, just like the album title, "Peace or Love".
One-shot music video reminds me of "Misread" and "Me in You", where at the end of the video you can see Glambek playing his guitar while lying down and Erlend dancing behind him. Lots of lights in the room, giving some Cayman Island vibes. Erlend dance as free as "I'd Rather Dance With You". Paintings in the video also reminds me of "Mrs. Cold", where ladies paint them. And of course, there is chess like in the "Riot On An Empty street" cover.
I don't know if I'm the only one who feels this, or can you feel it too?
Thank you for everything. Welcome back, guys!
Thats Right they mention their old videos.
I second this.
The intro suddenly reminds me of Misread, and the end scene of the video is indeed a combination of Misread and I'd rather dance. You're utterly right.
KoC is simply being KoC.
This is what I imagine a normal day in Norway is like
Haha agreed
agreed
This is what I wish a normal day in Norway was like
@@annalyche this comment made me sad.
the video was shot in Madrid 😅 is 'La Nave Del Topo' the house-studio of Clara Cebrian, the girl in the video :)
Eirik is on his back and Erlend doing his thing, it's almost like a callback to misread :))
Aquí despierta desde Mexico siendo las 3am para escucharlos. Gracias por esta canción 😍😍😘😘
Ojalá vuelvan algún día a méxico
@@EdsonEscobarN_ pronto pronto
Going through a hard time right now. I listen to this song almos everyday, sometimes I cry, sometimes it makes me feel like everything is going to be alright. Thanks for sharing your art I can't wait to see you at the Tomavistas Festival 2022 🌻🌞✨
Bonsoir isa.
Tout fini par s arranger🙏
Catherine 🇨🇵🙏🕯️🌟
@@cathymancini6667 ❤🩹
Same same same. So helpful songs they made
I love this evolution of Sherlock and Frodo 🥺🥺🥺
*Conveniently, the Kings of Convenience has returned..*
It's like they've never even left...
Thank you.
listening to this feels like letting out a breath that you've unknowingly held in for the longest of time
I've been waiting for this for so many years. KOC got me through so many tough times in my life - teenage angst in California, finding my footing in New York, feeling lost in Italy, graduate school in London, depression in Seattle/Philadelphia/Delaware. I'm now happy, 35yo, living with a loving husband in San Francisco where we are expecting our first baby. I'm so happy that there is a new KOC album coming to mark this new chapter in my life. Hopefully baby loves their music as much as I do.
Such a wonderful comment! You’ve come so far ☀️
Thank you guys! This is a sweet balm for our broken souls
So we meet again. After several years. Several years of sepaaraaaaaation !!
The best news today!
Right
Boat behind. Your comment made my day😁
Saw them a couple of months ago in Rome. It was the most dreamy experience ever, sitting on the edge of the lake while they played, such an awesome band to listen to live!!
This was unexpected but it has put a much needed injection of joy into my life. There’s something in my eye; must be a bit dusty in my room...
Stupenda! Arrangiamenti bellissimi, delicata, dolce… molto profonda e intensa. Amo la Vostra musica!!
I'm crying😭😭
The best news I've heard this year
Love from Korea❤❤
I can't put in writing how happy I am to see you two back together. The video is beautiful, the song is everything. And I screamed when I saw the Los Chalchaleros Vinyl in the kitchen, as I'm from Argentina. This is perfection.
Their melodic voices just melt all my stressful day away.
Greetings from Turkey. We have been waiting for the new album for more than 10 years :)
Yeaaaahhh..🔥🔥🔥
thank you! ❤️
Hah, Jonny Giger, fancy seeing you here!
So, not only loving good skating ! A matter of style ...?
Feels like meeting an old friend after a long time.
From more ten years ago, you guys have been my favorite. Please come to South Korea and spread how peacefulness of your songs..♥️
The world needs the music of Kings Of Convenience now.
This is literally balm for the heart
Can't believe I was 2 years late!
I used to listening to their songs in my college days. After 15 years, Boat Behind is still my favorite, but admitedlly I did have a hard time get over the melancholic feelings that song brought to me.
Casi un año de esta canción y me sigue encantando. Fui muy feliz cuando me enteré que regresarían los KOC, han pasado casi dos meses desde que vinieron a México y sólo de recordar esa noche me pongo muy de buenas y nostálgicona (': estuvo súper bonito, fue mágico sin exagerar, son una cosa increíble en vivo, sonaban UUUUF 💛👌🏽👂🏽 Los quiero mucho Kings of Convenience 🇲🇽💗 Gracias Erlend por salir con tus fans el 24 de febrero de 2022 c: eres la ondaaaaa.
Love to listen again after 10 years..
It's been half a year since this came out and it's still stuck in my head all the time. Love it.
hopefully they play this at my supper soft birthday next year
"I should have carried you to the top of the rocky trail" is the perfect lyric to drift away to sleep to
Thank you for this song. I've been having such bad anxiety lately, but this song from you in particular has helped keep me level. It's so beautiful. You guys are wonderful
Awesome, that you Guys are still Alive. High Five.
I saw this song live and it was amazing 🤩
Que saudade de vocês!É bom tê-los de volta!
i love these men so very much
Just like the rest of the comments in, I'm no different, I've waited for this like the rest of you'll and i feel exactly how everyone of you'll does at the moment... What a beautiful thing it is to be unknown to each other and yet known in our feelings to each other, the same bliss that we get by listening to the Kings....
Thank you Erlend and Eirik for a beautiful comeback and I'm so glad to be in the synergy of all those who have been waiting for this for nearly 12 years.
Love from Mumbai, India!
YES they are such kings.
The sound is magical, but the lyrics are pure poetry, too.
편리왕 복귀..! 한국인 손들어!!
저용🤗🤗🤗
ㄲㅑ악
OMG!! Es realmente bella y con gran energía!! La amo!!
Thank God they're back.

One more time
Let's say you give me one more time
One last chance to speak again
Let's start from what we left unsaid
And here we go
Brave enough to go climbing a wall so high that no sunlight is seen trough and
Brave enough to go travelling around the world without money to eat or sleep for
Seeing what you can do with your hands and feel there is no question about it
All the splendid thing you can land and almost any goal, you will get there
I wish you had been more all the talk and not the kind that is just slept on the
Nothing kinda looks what we've been lost through his eyеs when somebody's watching
Maybe you could'vе told there was the world on those shoulders that need a lifting
Maybe I could have learn to adapt the way is not easy I now but you never now
I thought you should be good
I thought that would take you to the end of any road
I thought your back was strong
But I should have carried you back to the top of the rocky trail
How am I to know
About your problems and your load?
I am blind to what you show
I am waiting to be told I never ask
How am I to know
About your problems and your load?
I am blind to what you show
I am waiting to be told I never ask
Thank you
Kings of Convenience got me through high school, when I was at my lowest point.
Years later, this band got me through a very painful breakup.
God, I've been repeating this track like 10 times and still want to listen again
They gave me the rythm, I gave them my heart. Whenever I listen to their song, I can dream even my eyes are open.
They are wonderful
Violin playing helps out !!
.
Peace to all.
A very soothing song
Beautiful
Amazing how back then they looked like every 15-20 years old indie girls dream and now they look like every 30 years old postindie adulting womans dream
This is 100% true. I am in fact that 30 year old and was also the 15 year old. Lol.
@Aster Risk I was 14 & a freshman in high school when I discovered them, but in 6th grade when I discovered the Whitest Boy Alive. I was OBSESSED and so into Erlend I remember modeling a clay mask assignment after him down to the glasses. Now I’m 24 and still in love
I was 13 or 14 when I was introduced to them and this comment rings so true.
the consistency is 👌👌👌👌👌👌
I discovered them when I was... I guess 13??? I remember I was so mesmerized by both, ALMOST attended their concert in 2007 I guess, but I was too young and didn't got permission from my parents... now I'm 26, I have my own job, and hoping this pandemic is over, so that I can watch them LIVE ughh
Im 26 rn and I was a 14 years old when I used to love every single song of them
I feel like I m in my twenties again! Glad you re back ❤ 😍
Kings of Convenience, 20 years of devotion., all the way from Blackburn, Lancashire.
OMG it's like summer came back to my life
I love this so much.
they follow up !
Amazing song! Thanks
I love u so much. ¡¡¡Thanks for existing!!! ❤️ 🇵🇪
So great to see they are back!!!
Goosebumps through my whole body. And my eyes are wet. Such a beautiful feeling.
oh my goooossssshhhh yeah
this thing make me smile
I’m so happy. 🥺
When i was in college, KoC Song's had often accompanied me while studied
Omg I miss you guys.
So glad you guys are making music again! Thanks!!!!
just...!!!!!!!!!!! 💙
CRYING HAS NEVER FELT THIS GOOD
Kings of the kings...
There are two kinds of bands in the world - Kings of Convenience and Others.
THEY'RE BACK!!? AINT NO WAY 😍
Je suis tellement fan ! Depuis tellement longtemps ❤️👍
How I missed you guys ❤️
gosh na miss kayo
un fuerte abrazo a los dos que linda su musica un honor escuchales depues de años. que linda esta !!!
2014년도 서재패에서 떡볶이 사서 먹고 있던 편리왕 기억나네요... 그시절이 넘 그립...
I love how within the first 5 seconds you can immediately say, "Yep, this is definitely a KoC song."
Just the way of KoC we've always known.
Still reminds me of mid to late 2000's. Its as if time never past.
that's when we forget about labels, styles and genres and just appreciate a pure and only Kings Of Convenion music expression into this world
Maybe it's not the wisest thing to abbreviate it to KoC in specifically that sentence...
@@guidosalescalvano9862 KoC has never been hard. Just smooth and soft.. that's the KoC we've come to know and love.
Beautiful
Am I smiling? Yes. Am I crying? Almost yes. Not even in my wildest dreams I thought this was going to happen. Its like meeting an old best friend again.
YES! I was like are they back? a new song? is that real? T.T
Exactly that!
Smiling, then crying, yes.
exactly!!!
It's like meeting up with an old friend after 12 years and picking up the conversation exactly where you left off, like a day hadn't passed. Everything about this is so warm and comfortable. Thanks for coming back.
exactly what I felt !
You called me after midnight
Must have been twelve years since we last spoke
I slowly tried to bring back
The image of your face from the memories so old
@@fyootb9482 that song is also beautiful
exactly like what i feel
What a beautiful comment.
Felt like met an old crush, knowing that both of us are single, and the old love sparks again...
THIS.
What an amazing surprise. Glad that you guys are back!
Alex! Love your channel man.
Kings of Convenience... but it's Funky
Love that place of the video too, would love to live there with those beautiful people ❤, we would live like kings 🤴
Alex! love your content!
Funky style please 🙏
"So we meet again, after several years, several years of seperation"
😭😭
😂😂😂😂
😍
Sad to think how many years are wasted because of doubts and insecurities when they could’ve been spent with the love of your life 💔
This song feels like getting a hug from an old friend you haven't seen in years. 🥰
I literally just commented the same thing, without seeing this comment first haha
Funny to see people reacting the exact same way to a song
Honestly!
Absolutely !
exactly the feeling i had! perfect analogy
I felt the same way, first listen to them and its amazing.
This feels like meeting up with old friends you haven't seen in a decade. Thank you Erlend and Eirik.
welcomeback kings
Yes I missed them too.
^^"
yasss
haloo bang
Mantap bang gerry
didnt knew you were coming back. this is making me so happy! The song is lovely.
This video has the aesthetic of a 90s English text book for non English speakers where kids in their early twenties with long sweaters and boxy jeans named Peter or Susan would talk about going to a concert at a park.
Peter or susan or maybe malcolm?
Or maybe a rave xD
absolutely hahaha I love that aesthetic
That’s why we left the homeland one day
Damn 12 years was too long but this was worth the wait
For anyone curious, this space was designed by an architect named Pia Mendaro :)
Love the knowing nod to one of the shots of this space featured in Dezeen. And a very current concept in this quarantine era to showcase, in a comfy colour palette no less, what a living space can be. Very KOC!
As an architect, thanks for this info!
I definitely spent a few seconds thinking "how do they climb up to that bed?"!
I'm in love with this space and the color orange. I could live here quite easily.
Yes, it is the "Topo's Shade" workspace in Madrid, very nice!
The legendary Kings of Convenience have created another eternal aesthetic masterpiece with their heartwarming voices. The wishes of all their worldwide fans have been answered. May this album and their future albums become super successful and may we get to see them perform live across the planet. Love from India❤️
**huge hugs** I hope you are staying safe!
Thanks for these very kind words. India has been on our list of places we need to visit for a while now. See you soon.
@@erlendye2758 Thanks Erlend. Your reply made my day🎶
@@erlendye2758 YOU WILL HAVE SO MANY PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE. We'd love to have you here! Please do come :)
@@erlendye2758 Your sonic healing touch is what your fans in India will need after they deal with their current Covid situation - which is frightening to say the least.
I still can't believe they have reunited again after 12 years ....
I can't believe it's been 12! years...
Simple. They need money...
and such a message
Almost anything you can imagine
Almost any goal
You will get there
@@NKKBerlin good job ruining everyone's mood.
"So we meet again
after several years
several years of separation..."
When chaos and tragedy is taking over the world, the KoC come to save us all
I think 12 years of emotion was just released. I needed that.
I feel like this is the song that every single piece of IKEA furniture is silently singing in the show rooms.
Well it kinda felt like an IKEA commercial. Actually Kings of Convinience would be a perfect corporate name for a furniture store.
How does this make sense lol
This is the first comment I've ever liked in my 12 years of being on youtube. You win.
Northern European vibe 🤷🏻♀️
That's exactly what i was thinking lol
You geniuses, how could you abandon us for 12 years. Thanks for coming back when we needed you the most
9. Yes
I must be dreaming...
Ok guys, I'm crying rn....... THANK YOU!
you are not alone Ed.
stay well and safe
17th listen.... Finally looked at the lyrics and what they mean (my interpretation is that they had a falling out because of Eiriks depression or anxiety, maybe erlend had a little bit of an ego?! I don't know... And I mean that in the stupidest way possible) I also felt when I listened to kommode that Eirik was definitely feeling left behind. And 12 years later for them to write a song that makes you cry because you don't even have to hear their lyrics to cry on any given sunday. Then you listen to the lyrics and you cry. Tears of joy boy. I'm giddy like a school girl..... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..... Honestly it's been a shite couple years. And I'll take what I can get and I can't believe I get this sorry I didn't mean to hijack your emotions.
This is the house of Clara Cebrian designed by Pia Mendaro! Very Kings of Convenience vibes
True! Thanks to both Pia and Clara ❤️
@@erlendye2758 I love you guys!! Thank you for the new music.
Woke up and the sun was shining, opened my phone and saw this was out. Perfect day
Same here, friend. The sun shines even brighter now
Most definitely :) It was a beautiful morning getting dressed and driving to work.
Lovely ❤️🔥
They look... Warm and familiar. Like our childhood friend from high school. We talk, we laugh, and we shared our stories. The same stories we told over and over again but never get bored with it. Because it reminds us of better time, when things are simple, when we young and happy. I really enjoy this songs. It makes me feel good and safe. And i hope it makes you feel that way too.
