My wife is working the NYE shift in a Covid ward. I sent her this song -- it's lifted the whole medical crew! They've been dancing to it, as they found time between patients. Thank you for this magic ....... the medical team danced their way into 2021!!!

thank you so much for taking the time to write down the lyrics!! buuuut I think it’s “until we heard the evening news.” instead of “until we heard it in the news” :)
I love this song, can't stop singing it. It's a third lockdown in Ireland and again I'm being stuck at home.Mind yourself people and stay positive because one day it will end.
I love Erlend's music. I was listening to a colection of his songs and heard Lockdown Blues for the first time. Great song. He is one of the most talented musicians on the planet.
Hi Erlendt !! I love this song, the entire video, the instruments, the voices, including the girls, my 3 nieces and Clarita... I watch it every day and really enjoy it. Thaks to you and to La Comitiva, for communicating joy in the midst of this strange times... Let me know through the girls if u come to play in Madrid.
There is probably too much space between the heart and the brain Or no time available enough For words to be caught and spelled as the lyrics keep on echoing inside No proper words To modestly describe the wave that overwhealms inside Up to soak lashes And light up the mood At the view of this split screen, feeling finally mankinded Fragments of a multifaced humanity Yet one and united in a way to endure, bearing the same burden Erlend Øye and La Comitiva, thank you This song will never be overheard As it gently caress and comfort the soul
It has been a long way since that concert at Highbury & Islington's The Garage back in... 2000? 2001? Still enjoying everything you did in solo or in the Kings of Convenience. Looking forward to your next music ✌😊
Che bravo Erlend con i suoi amici della Comitiva!! Vorrei faceste un tour qui in Liguria da levante a ponente.. ma rimane un desiderio inespresso al momento..
While I'm listening to this blues,I see the picture of me(just a fan ),Marcin and Erlend .And I find that we were young,younger than we thought before. But time passed and our world had changed in so many ways...Feels like the drum's song"Book of Stories"." I thought my life would get easier,instead it's getting colder without you." But today this blues helps me to rethink this way.Something still remains the same.That something… is the power of Music.it is love.and it is prayer. I thank you for the song. All the gratitude and prayer goes to you ,La comitiva.I mean, all the people living this time.We all one big family.

LYRICS 👇
Lockdown blues
Don't need no shoes
Dress whatever way you please
No cafè, no ballet
On the menu lockdown blues
(Ah-uuuh x2)
April May (April May)
That was ok (that was ok)
We were singing lockdown blues
June July (June July)
We flew up high (we flew up high)
So now we're back in lockdown blues
(Ah-uuuh x2)
There was a plan (we had a plan)
To take a plane (to take a plane)
Until we heard it in the news
The virus grows,
borders close
Looks like we're trapped in lockdown blues
Please come soon,
before the moon
rises over Syracuse
I wouldn't mind
to stay inside
If I could stay inside with you
(Ah-uuuh x4)
Lockdown town
Lockdown time
Lockdown streets
Lockdown needs
Lockdown nights
Lockdown fights
Lockdown blues
Lockdown rules
thank you so much for taking the time to write down the lyrics!! buuuut I think it’s “until we heard the evening news.” instead of “until we heard it in the news” :)
Loneliness, but with Loveliness ❤
Erlend you are a world heritage artist, pure expression of freedom and art. You are an inspiration. Keep it up 👍
Another masterpiece.
I love this song, can't stop singing it. It's a third lockdown in Ireland and again I'm being stuck at home.Mind yourself people and stay positive because one day it will end.
"I wouldn't mind to stay inside If I could stay inside with you" ✨. Gracias desde México.
I love Erlend's music. I was listening to a colection of his songs and heard Lockdown Blues for the first time. Great song. He is one of the most talented musicians on the planet.
Is there such thing as comfort music? If there is, then this must be it ❤️
Bellissima. In questa giornata piovigginosa è un caffé seduta al tavolino, fuori per strada, fumando una sigaretta ❣️
The guitars coming together at the beginning… pure perfection.
Need this song in all platforms :D
I love it!! I sent it to all my contacts and lot of him love it too!! Thank you, that you make the virus bearable. Thank you so much!!
Te amo, Erlend. Forever n always!! Here from Perú ❤️
This song literally keeps me out from depression thank you!
Obrigada pela delicadeza dessa obra. Beijos do Brasil! 💘
Beautiful from Scotland 💖
I love this sound... as I sit here barefoot. One of those glorious song you put on replay... Stay safe.
La plus belle des chansons confinée

There is probably too much space between the heart and the brain
Or no time available enough
For words to be caught and spelled as the lyrics keep on echoing inside
No proper words
To modestly describe the wave that overwhealms inside
Up to soak lashes
And light up the mood
At the view of this split screen, feeling finally mankinded
Fragments of a multifaced humanity
Yet one and united in a way to endure, bearing the same burden
Erlend Øye and La Comitiva, thank you
This song will never be overheard
As it gently caress and comfort the soul
It popped up in my recommendations and I love it!!
It has been a long way since that concert at Highbury & Islington's The Garage back in... 2000? 2001?
Still enjoying everything you did in solo or in the Kings of Convenience.
Looking forward to your next music ✌😊
The best musician that has emerged in recent times...
He's been around for a long time with Kings of Convenience, about 20 years 🙂
What a song! Hugs from Brazil
What the world needs now is music, sweet music!!
Magic.Also all Erland projects.
Erlend is probably the the most talented lyric writer I knew these days. Thank u
Great job UA-cam recommendation! Now I find another gem to jam to.
Hello from Taiwan. My two sons(5&3years old) love this song so much.
Muy bien hecho!!! La cuarentena necesitaba una canción así para relajarnos mucho.
This song is a beautiful masterpiece and captures all the emotions of these tough times 🙏
Only discovered KOC today, I feel so dumb! Found you through Feist, a huge fave of mine...fun hearing all this stuff for the first time!
Siempre es hermoso escuchar al amigo de los Kings Of Convenience Oyé
Siempre sorprendente, el Maestro Erlend!!!
Can't say how much I love that song. The melodie, the girl-volcals, the vocals in the end.. Well done guys.
