Inspirational Sounds.

When an album, or a song for that matter, can take someone to a different place or memory every time they hear it- it is something rare, and special. According to iTunes, I have listened to each of the Kings of Convenience's songs ten times over each. I can't get enough, which may actually be an inconvenience. But hey, they help me think, dream, write, focus, and feel good about life. Their sound is unlike any other. Each one of their songs is original and unique in its own way, and their lyrics are beautiful. Erlend Øye and Eirik Glambek Bøe, the two musicians that make up this phenomenal duo, have created something special. Their four albums thus far, Quiet is the New Loud, Versus, Riot On an Empty Street, and Declaration of Dependence are all arguably some of the best albums I've ever heard. Yes, Brittany Spears, Lady "Ga-Ga", and The Jonas Brothers might be having a good year, but trust me on this one: these two deserve more fame and fortune than all of the biggest pop-stars around. I'm not trying to promote them or anything, I'm just trying to share one of my biggest musical inspirations. Check them out at Skreemr. I can't suggest any one song, you'll have to discover what you like the most. Here's one of their best videos in my opinion, it's a taste of what they're like. By taste, I mean a tiny bite of their thousand- flavored slice of musical beauty.
