Interesting. Love Sivert's voice too.

One of the standouts on the new album. I was testing some new hi-fi eqipment and at 1:46 a smile formed ear to ear (Schiit Vidar 2 powering KEF LS50 Meta). 



That can´t compare to my dual Hassenpfeffer Vlaff 605s driving a pair of Weedlschnitz PP-tube Glonks!

Probably just me, but the chanting hymnal vocals elicit such a powerful emotional response...so amazingly simple and evocative, in spite of the Casio keyboard programming....

"I met her in a bar room, her name I didn't catch"
There's a definite Polynesian vibe in this song.

I really hope you start feeling better smartn1 
I hear a David Byrne influence

I like this very much, but I have a sneaking suspicion that the reason a track with the line "Not so easier" was placed immediately after a track with the line "How does it feel like" (Chemical Brothers, "Let Forever Be") was just to wind up the grammar police amongst us. Nice one, Bill.  
It's a bit repetitive but the melody is really nice - 6 but might go to a 7 
Wonderful band, wonderful song. This one was recorded in Norway in a community called Hadsel and the city named Stokmarknes.
6 -> 7 and probably soon -> 8 ... 
Very very nice.

Meaningless low-effort comment. Nowhere close to a comprehensible, rational thought.
this is growing on me - 8
Oh YAY, new Beirut!
Thanks Bill :-)

I thought it sounds more Daniel Lanois-esque...
