Absolutely! Twice actually
Me, today

You can't understand how I feel.. Today, after 12 years of searching , I've finally found it. I cried
:)
:)
spent 2 years doin the same .. issa good feeling
Congratulations, friend!
Feel u
It took me 13 years, to find this song
Worth the journey
dude same. just found this last night. 670th time listening
Just in time, they released a new single today!
Better late then never :) You have a whole world of timeless beauty ahead of you. I remember when I first was introduced to their music. Still feels like magic
Welcome home
The 00’s were such simpler times I miss them
yes so simple. Dotcom crash, 9/11, Afghanistan War, Iraq War, PATRIOT Act, 2008 recession, global financial crisis...
My favorite thing about this song is that it somehow sounds old and new, happy and sad at the same time.
my favorite thing about this song is that...it exists
Yup! 👌
Exactly
Exactly ! me too I feel the same that's why it is so sweet I love it
wow
"The loneliest people are the ones who always speak the truth."
Because we mostly talk to ourselves.
Oh yeah yeah
@@paulgoogol2652 yep, when you are honest sometimes you cant find people like you, so you talk to yourself.
So if you are a lonely person you can't betray or cover someone because you're alone.

Chi ascolta questo brano nel 2024.....HA DAVVERO EMOZIONI DENTRO
Being young and discovering music while you are on highschool felt so joyful. I remember when a Teacher showed me this band. She was my chemistry teacher and i used to help her for my scholarship. I was pretty depressed back then and i really had no one to talk to. She showed me a bunch of bands i will never forget. The way these songs make you feel is like getting together with someone you havent seen on years and having a happy time for a short time until you have to say goodbye again.
which other bands did she show you?
@@baron5688 Beirut and The whitest boy alive
@@SuperKidx10x the whitest boy alive and Beirut are so so so good. You just got stuck in my head "freedom is a possibility only if you're able to say no". Those were simpler days I look back on with nostalgia.
@@birdsascarnage Yesss i dont listen to them as much now but yeah. I love that lyric also the one from dont give up that says "You want to live when life is sakenly unfair Stick around". That song really helped me go through hard times
This lyrics! Love em
This song makes loneliness feel okay
Exactly how I feel, yes
The loneliest people Were the ones who always spoke the truth
couldnt have described it better
It was my first night in Paris and me and my dad needed a taxi to get back to our hotel after a PSG soccer game. Some guy pulled up to us and said he was an Uber, we got in and this song was playing and with the vibe of this song and the rain of Paris, it was perfect just such a chill song with the beauty of Paris in the background. Truly one of my favorite experiences.
Great comment!
Oh nice
Beautiful! I can imagine! :')
I dream to have such experiences!
Touché👍
this song literally just appeared in my recommended, never heard of it before

If you want to be my friend You want us to get along Please do not expect me to Wrap it up and keep it there The observation I am doing could Easily be understood As cynical demeanor But one of us misread And what do you know It happened again A friend is not a means You utilize to get somewhere Somehow I didn't notice Friendship is an end What do you know It happened again How come no-one told me All throughout history The loneliest people Were the ones who always spoke the truth The ones who made a difference By withstanding the indifference I guess it's up to me now Should I take that risk or just smile? What do you know It happened again What do you know
muchas gracias!!
Thank you my friend
Thank you.
Grazie.

This video showed me you have to learn to be lonely, friendships always come and go. You have to make your own life cause you won’t be with them forever, so just enjoy them while you can
..and you´re never allone, cause you´re allways with yourself
It's sad if a friend go, but they don't owe you anything and you have to learn that they have their own lives too. They cannot always be there. So be amazing alone.
🙏🏾
The slogan "you'll never walk alone" is lousy
This song feels like Sunday afternoon
True
If this song is in your recommendations, you're indeed a good person, prove me wrong
I'm not.

"The loneliest people are the ones who always spoke the truth" - Kings of Convenience This hit home story of my life
Is it uncool to be not lonely?
@@frododododo no, but you didn't get the drift 😅
Someone showed me this song back in highschool, about 7 years ago and i loved it, he was my best friend for about 4 years, i helped him to graduate from highschool (he was the first in his family to graduatefrom highschool), his mother had passed away when he was 12 and i helped him to get through it, we where so close, we always talked about doing road trips and traveling together. When we graduate we started to distance ourselves, after a while he got a girlfriend who was jealous of me just for being a woman, he chosed her over my friendship, and now after a year of that decision i still listen to this song and think about us two skating across the city like we used to or doing our trips to the beach in an old beatle listening to red hot chilli peppers music like we promised we would do. I just wanted to share my history with this song (Update) He is still with the same girl, and now they have a son (I knew because he unblocked me from WhatsApp to tell me), I tried to talk to him and tell him how I feel about his decision but he only saw my message, blocked me and never replied me back... sometimes I dream with him and how we used to do such stupid things together to make our sad lives a little better, I wish you the best bro, even though you are a dumbass
:"-( I have a similar experience..ugh, it sucks
Sometimes it's hard to have a male best friend. Especially when there is a jealous girlfriend in the mix :'(
Thanks to share your history to us...
I really hate jealous girls , pure insecurity
@dale gend i feel the same way, that's why I shared my story with this song, i hope you are not feeling alone right now
anyone notice how the video makes so much sense for this song? two people, doing two completely different things (one guitaring the other drawing then eventually going to play soccer) yet they still harmonize, literally? what im going through now, i dont think my friends understand that i like to do my own thing, i dont need to see them all the time. but just because i dont see them does not mean that i am not harmonizing with them. they are always on my mind and they will always be in my heart. towards the end of the video eirik eventually joins erland, for just a moment, to see what he drew. its more special to "share your drawings" with your friends after youve gone off and done your own thing. seperation is good, it helps me grow as an individual and it makes me appreciate my friends that much more. anyway, i love this song lol been listening to it for over 10 years now and im only 26
I love this comment!
motifontheback wow, I totally agree 😱✨✨
You seem very sweet and genuine. Never change
This is beautiful
GiGi xxx oh wow, thank you
Sublime ,dolcissima, emozionante, indimenticabile,colorata, attraente e meravigliosa. Una musica di grande sensazioni e stupore.
I'm listening and watching this song on December, 2020 in cold winter, pandemic. This feels like heaven but I don't know why, I feel like I wanna cry.
hang in there!
Nothing wrong with that!
now its 2021 :)
Hope you’re feeling better and enjoying the summer + the new album! ❤️
한국인분이시네ㅠㅠ언제나 들어오 좋은 노래죠..
I found a CD to these guys inside an old car CD player in junkyard, best surprise of my life.
Insane
that is so cute
That is just beautiful.
Lucky
I've been searching for this song since I was 11, now Im 21. I'm gonna play this song everyday for the rest of my life.
Man, kings of convenience…. Really takes me back, I would vibe out to their albums on those long road trips in the early 2000s.
The playful shaking of the blooming tree, the carefree relaxed song, the beautiful park, the noncompetitive soccer-playing all add up to make a beautiful video.
So this is how Frodo lives? Cool!
xD
lol
LOOOOOOLLLL
Xd
wkwkwkwk you nailed it!
I feel that people who listen to this kind of music, are kind, romantic and intellectual people.
Reznov Duran OMG, I'm blushing xd

Thanks to the KZhead algorithm for introducing me to a beautiful song today!
Seriously one of the best indie rock/pop songs I have ever listened to.

Wish my life was this park
my parents used to play this song a lot in the living room when my sisters and I were little, so it feels super nostalgic listening to it now as there’s a whole bunch of memories i associate with this music
❤
It has been almost 20 years since I was enraptured by the notes of this song. A mixture of serenity and melancholy.
heard this in concert last night in New York and it was magical.
BUT NOT SADNESS.HOPE FOR A HAPPYNESS.
2024 anyone?
Funny how now is 2024 for real 😂 Made that comment 2 years ago. So 2027 anyone? 😂
2024 here 😂
Only from 2037
From 2024, my first love girl likes this piece. Sad story but, at least, I've discovered a nice band.😢❤
Yes!!!!❤
Songs like this are needed in these desperate times.
This beautiful song reminds me of a simpler life I lived back in 2012, I used to live in Cambridge and I'd go with some friends to parker's piece to lay our backs on the grass, light up a cigarette and plug in a small and cheap speaker just to share the joy of listening to our beloved Kings of Convenience
I can’t hide the fact that I’ve cried while listening to this song. The nostalgia hits you like a truck
Some months ago I met someone who showed me this song. She was always brutally honest, something I like. We quickly became really close, however, yesterday, with all her honesty, she told me to stop talking as she got bored of me. Now this song hits really different, not only because I know about it thanks to her, but because she is as the person in the song. Anyways, wherever you go, I wiss you the best
This is the most delicate, inspirate, heartwarming, gentle videoclip I've ever seen. Also this solution of 1 single camera from start to end.... It moves me
whale 75 yeah! Seems just a crane and that’s it!
10 years ago I was in bad place in my life, recently single, switching jobs I used to get lost in my head listening to these guys and Royksopp. Thats when I met this girl that changed my life and 10 years later we are married and having a baby. Hearing this after so long hits me right in the feels.
glad for you man
@@bibekpawn6175 thank you bro
Hope to be there someday. I’m just on my 5th year.
Big hug from Italy🙋🏻♀️
These guys and royksopp.. i see you
as a kid i remember when my whole family was in a crazy argument fight, i got into my room, locked the door and played this song over and over again i first heard this song from my cousin's N-Gage back in 2005. I was in Borneo, visiting my grandma, but on that day the whole family got into intense argument fight, so i locked my self in my cousin's room and this song saved my day. thanks for the likes, never get so many likes. have a nice day everyone🌻
I felt that
The feels are real
Oh. Can relate
yeah felt like to throw away that bad memory
Excellent
When music is real music
I’ve lost a lot of friends because of my insecurity in the past and I moved and it’s been so lonely but I’ve met good people again, i don’t want to lose them..I think I’ve changed, I hope I’m a better person and they stay. It’s funny listening to this song has so many meanings to me, at first I thought of all the guys I’ve liked and how I always fall and they only see me as a friend, and then I hear “friendship isn’t there” and I think of how desperate I used to be for people to like me and how many people didn’t want to be my friend..
i relate to this to much
my comfort music since college til now
I was looking for this song 4 years. My life is complete.
You Have A Strong Mental Toughness In Life. Remember that. ♡
In this quarantined times, this feels like a long past time song
This song makes me cry. It's so beautiful it hurts.
The first time I listened to this song was a pivotal moment in my life. It made me realize I seriously needed to take care of myself more. Since then, my life has changed a lot and for the better!! This song is really powerful
Man! I can't believe that after all of these years I found this song!!! I use to listen to it in my teen age years with my dad back home!!! After school mostly in the evenings already, we'd lay on the couches in our living room, turn of the lights and he would put on his favorite radio station (Antena 1) hahahha man! even just writing and reading the name of it reminds me of it even more!!!:DDD This radio station use to play songs of my dad's young years and songs that had a similar vibe like this one, so he would love it!:D And although we were not actually playing something or doing much besides listening to music, I cherish these moments like crazy!!!!!! And one think I always kept in mind was this one song that I'd never heare again!!! Especially since the songs played on this radio would not play on the radios that I would normally listen to! But ever once in a while when I was to think of my dad I'd think about us there listening to music in our living room in the dark with only the green light of the radio on!:))))) And I'd always remember this part of this song!!! "if you wanna be my friend"..... but that's all I could remember!..... Seriously!!! it has been more than ten years now!!!! And now it's the first time I hear this song again every since then!!!!! Man!!!! I missed those days so much!!!!!:DDDDDD and of course once I found it, I lowered my computer screen so it wouldn't shine so much into the room, it's already pretty late here now, and I didn't have any lights on!;) So I just had to lay on my couch and press play!!!!:DDDDDDDDDDDDDD I flew all the way back to Brazil!!!!!!! and even went back in time!!!!!!:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Sigh!!!:))))))))) Such a nice experience!!!!:))))))) Man!!!!!:)))) That's was sweet!:))))))) Sigh!:))))) I think I'll listen to it for the third time now!;) Peace!:))))
Thiago Santos I found this song on Antena 1 as well! 😆
Who's listening to this masterpiece in 2024?
i love this comment section. it's filled with tons of people's lovely memories of this song and beautiful descriptions of how they feel when listening to it. it's beautiful.
I'm glad you think so
Only 24 millions of views? This song deserves MORE
How come no one told me, all throughout history the loneliest people were the ones who always spoke the truth. The ones who made a difference by withstanding the indifference. I guess it's up to me now, should I take that risk or just smile? The combination of flow and depth in that passage is outstanding. I guess many of us can relate to it.
i never actually noticed this passage until this comment and ive been listening to these guys for years... thank you sooooooo much.. :)
That whole paragraph describes me so much
Just smile... ...and make a difference :)
I think that when he says, "what do you know, it happened again", he's taken the easy way out. He's unwilling to make the change so he just puts on a meaningless smile instead. :(
Learn the truth about what you're paying for every single day, and then say, "no thank you. I love animals, the planet and myself more than this." Go vegan.
I've had this melody stuck in my mind since i was 7 or 8, heard it from a tv spot and growing up I tried so many times but I was never able to find out which song it was cause there were no lyrics or anything used in this spot, just this mesmerizing melody that I immediately fell in love with, I am now 24 and I literally just found this song through a friend's insta story, I AM SHOOK 😭😭😭💚
Found this writing "if you wanna be my friend song"... I'm so happy! Heard this song on literally every radio
My college years... my early twenties ❤ miss them
How have I gone 21 years without ever even hearing of these guys?? One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard and I just discovered it. Fantastic
I’m 21years and I just discovered it😞
I'm 27 and just found this. So glad I did. It's just beautiful.
I've loved this song from day 1. Thank you, KZhead algorithm for bringing it back into my life.
siempre escucho esta canción cuando me siento frustrada o cuando siento culpa. Escucharla es como un abrazo emocional que me dice: “no seas tan dura contigo misma”
bro, siento lo mismo! en general con todas sus canciones
Por que
Love this song. Makes me miss my brother.
only 9 million views...for one of the most relaxing and elegant song of last 15 years?? There is a problem guys
do you think people usually take that risk or just smile? there´s ur answer
This music brings me comfort, peace, great memories and keeps my heart full of love and worm, life is great 💚
Ho trovato questa canzone dopo tanti anni.. ricordavo solo la parte iniziale. Meraviglia 😍😍😍
Veramente stupenda e rilassante
Sicuramente la ricordavi in una pubblicità in tv, come me
Rievoca bellissime Sensazioni e ricordi
This song is like a caress in an early morning freshness ... a touch for the soul ... Besides seeing some guys playing football in an open great green grass like that, is so beautiful ... Unfortunately is so brief ... thanks for playing ...
I’m listening to this during a global pandemic
x2
Me too
same
same 🇧🇷
We know it. I ve seen your comments on several songs from them 😂 reasonable anyway, this is good stuff
Very rarely do I click on a song and instantly love the video, the music, and the lyrics. Very very rarely.
Today, February 21, 2022; I came across this song of you guys...and you have no idea how much I loved it. I think I will proceed to listen more of you. What a nice recommendation you have been♡
Me sinto em 2010, ouvindo a Antena 1 e sem qualquer preocupação. Isso que era vida!
Essa música me faz relembrar do ensino médio, por incrível q pareça já conhecia essa dupla foda desde os tempos de escola
Pra mim essa é a música do fim de tarde da antena 1. Lembro várias vezes eu dentro do carro naquela fila das 6 da tarde e essa música tocando... Que delicia
Me faz lembrar de quando voltava pra casa depois de um dia de trabalho;sentada no trolebus. Saudades ABC Paulista😻. De RJ hoje
This song was my first contact with Kings of Convenience, I remember listening to it on the radio like 11 or 12 years ago and I loved the rhythm, the piano, those voices... It took me a little bit of time (months) to find this song again, but after all this time I STILL listen to it almost religiously (it makes me feel so freaking methodic omg)
First i heard this song when I went home from a nice dinner with my parents..I heard this song played in a car radio with the view of Jakarta at night after the new year..I miss that night
Because I grew up on music like this, it's hard to understand that there are people out there who don't know about kings of convenience.
what a song
I can (and do) listen to this song over and over again. What pleasant music, soothing voice and meaningful lyrics
This song makes me feel nostalgic about memories I never lived, it's a weird feeling which I have not found in any other artist, love it 😍
sounds like bossa nova, i love it
This song really got deep in my skin in highschool... I still love it so much after a almost 15 years.
Introduced KoC to my girlfriend over 12 years and watched them perform live in San Francisco. And to this day, we're still together. Now in our mid thirties, not married but living together with a beuatiful dog and we're happy. -- It's just bittersweet listening to this song after so many years and it just brings back good memories. What a masterpiece.
The spareness, beauty of two voices, musically connecting gently, evocative images so lovely yet so sad. Why am I crying? The beauty of life, the moments you can't hang onto.
When I want to find some serenity, I run here and listen to these sensational notes.
i've been searching for this song for ages omg i cant belive it i finally found it. old but gold
this song feels like a crush
Agradeço ao meu pai por me apresentar a Antena 1 e conhecer diversos classicos como esse !! 🔥Eu com 22 ainda me recordo de um tempo calmo sem turbulência na vida sons assim relaxam minha mente !
Seu pai tem bom gosto. Antena um toca excelentes músicas
Shoutout to this song 14 years later
Sono passati 15 anni, ma questo pezzo mi emoziona sempre come la prima volta che lo ascoltai, un classico.
How have I never heard of these marvelous music makers, till yesterday?
This is one of my fav songs in history ❤
Fu***ing nostalgia hits very hard. I remember that 2004 summer, this song was always on MTV. I now struggle to listen to this, it creates a strange feeling.
I would call this one "the supreme beauty of simplicity".
this is perfect for a sunday morning :)
or any morning
+19lionkingfan or any times :)
+James Collins listen to 'American Football - American Football (1999)'
Perfect for every morning i think
true
4 years of searching this song... I finally found it
The singer has an angelic voice.... Amazing..... 😊😊
Love this band, still, after so many years...
I remember when I was 17 and I was always late because I wasted time listening to their songs in my room.
***** Really? :)
i think that time wasn't wasted then :P
You're right :P majlathda Good times are coming again :) *****
Listening to their songs is no waste of time ;)
This is so funny, I have a 17 year old son, who is always late cause he always plays his guitar and listens to music.... I secretely enjoy that he gets lost in good music.
I'm crying - I took a long time to get a song and say "well, this is the song of mine". Now, I find it.
Live in Minervino Murge,Puglia 2022... Guys,what a wonderful concert 😍😍😍
As beautiful as this song is it breaks my heart..for personal reasons. I miss her and the kids so much
ive been listening to this song for years but am just now paying attention to the video its absolutely brilliant in its minimalistic style love it love it
