Nothing Like The Love I have for You by Egil Oslen

Share

Nothing Like The Love I have for you is the second album from Egil Oslen, which was released in October 9th, 2009. A Norwegian he is. I have to confess I was attracted by his album cover when I listen to his album. Because his album artwork is so cute and full with love and yet a teeny bit of melancholy.

how can you not love this album art?

Obviously this is an album about love. The naive kind of love. Think puppy love that kind of love. Not the oh-i-die-for-you that kind of love. Get it? The lyrics is simple and straight forward. Thus, it was quite a different experience when listening to this album. You don’t have to gone cuckoo trying to decipher what the lyric means. Is simple, clean and light.

Egil Olsen has a very mellow voice. Which sometimes it sound like he is whispering softly like he was afraid of waking something. The whole album, yup every single fourteen tracks has this warm melodious lullaby kind of music which definitely is a good album for a peaceful chill out night. Imagine a glass of red wine while sitting at the balcony with legs crossed looking at the city night view while your love one was resting her/his head on your shoulder. Le sigh~~when will this be a reality for me? ok off topic. Just like those review in his website, it is almost impossible to not be happy whilst listening to this album.

a super talented guy with uber cute character

This album is a rare gem in that one should posses. Oh, yeah I kid you not. His music is like a new breath of oxygen in this mainstream-polluted-all-about-money music scenes. Or imagine F1 race car everything is so fast and furious, not to mention the sound pollution. Then when they pull over into pit-stop. That’s is how his music like. A break from all this chaos. Ok, enough of example, goddamn it! Just listen to his music then you will understand.

I don’t have credit card thus can’t open a iTunes account and Malaysia CDs stores is just sucks like that. So, please please those who can afford to buy it or can find the album just buy the original ok. This kind of talented musician really need a lot of support before they get axed by the labels because not making enough money for the labels unlike those singing-fuck-you in the song singers. Go to his website to buy the original, from itunes.
