Artist：Kings of Convenience
Song：Homesick
I lose some sales
and my boss won't be happy
but I can't stop listening to the sound
of two soft voices blended in perfection
from the reels of this record that I found
every day there's a boy in the mirror
asking me
what are you doing here
finding more that previous motifs
growing increasingly unclear
I travelled far and I burned all the bridges
I belived as sooned as I hit land
all the other
options held before me
wither in the light of my plan
so I lose some sales
and my boss won't be happy
but there's only one thing on my mind
searching boxes underneath the counter
on a chance that on a tape I'd find
a song for
someone who needs somewhere
to long for
homesick
cause I no longer know
where home is

几乎所有的人都会将挪威清新组合Kings of Convenience与六十年代美国的民谣英雄Simon & Garfunkel相比较，只不过来自挪威的Erik和Erlend兄弟在这个世纪才出现。已经发表过很多成功作品的Kings of Convenience推出的全新专辑《Riot on an Empty Street》仍延续了以往的风格，依旧是Indie Pop大唱主调。
2001年的首张专辑《寂静是新的喧嚣》，使自在之王在新千年里以Simon and Garfunkel似的音乐理念赢得了众多喝彩。自在之王温和文雅的轻柔民谣就像许多来自北欧的清新乐风一样，它们是那么简洁、直入心灵，就像直接从内心凝练出的音符从吉他上流淌出来。
《沉溺在空旷的大街上》里的十二首歌曲在Badly Drawn Boy和Paul Heaton的风格之间波动，整张制作精巧，蕴涵着一股甜蜜的忧愁。主唱在每个音节的发音和间歇中都非常精准的保持协调。与上一张专辑不同的是，新专辑中有两首歌曲出现了女声，这个声音来自加拿大独立乐团Broken Social Scene的女歌手Leslie Feist。
弦乐、小号、五弦琴和钢琴共同构成了这张专辑的整体外貌。Feist柔弱颤抖的声音尤其与众不同，充满诱惑。正如先前一样，当我们越是试图剖析这些歌曲本身的时候，就越是觉得它们实在可爱至极。简朴的开头歌曲Homesick出奇的迷人，协调的和声和伤感的情绪贯穿始终。
