Being a common male first name in Norway, one probably don’t expect the stunning voice of Silje Halstensen coming at you. The powerful sound of Bendik has made her and her band a live favourite in Norway. Constantly developing the sound, the red thread is the amazing intensity and massive sound they are able to produce. Many would probably say that Bendik has got a very Nordic sound, and they wouldn’t be very far off assuming correctly. The fact that Halstensen sings in her native Norwegian dialect obviously emphasises this quite a lot, and is also central in the way we listen to this band. It’s just really hard to resist this.

No går det over
Bendik Lyrics

De mange dagene
Eg faller
Faller du
Og alt eg klarer e
å etterlate deg til
Alle de sultne dyrene
Som venter på sin rette
Eg går når du blir tung å bære

Så kordan kan eg tro på deg
Vite det at varmen e i morgen og
At du vil bære meg hver natt
Eg har det vondt

No går det over
Alt e sagt no
Eg skal drømme gode drømmer
No går det over, no går det over

No går det over
Alt e sagt no
Eg skal drømme gode drømmer
No går det over, no går det over

No går det over
Alt e sagt no
Eg skal drømme gode drømmer
No går det over, no går det over
No går det over

Eg vil ikkje vite mere
Bare leve i troen på at alt blir bra
Så snart vi alle kan gå videre
Eg har blitt til levende hat
Tror du det e min feil
Eg sa nei hundre ganger
Du hørte aldri feil
Og du mener at alt eg e e
Meg meg meg

Så kordan kan eg tro på deg

No går det over
Alt e sagt no
Eg skal drømme gode drømmer
No går det over, no går det over

No går det over
Alt e sagt no
Eg skal drømme gode drømmer
No går det over, no går det over

No går det over
Alt e sagt no
Eg skal drømme gode drømmer
No går det over, no går det over

No går det over
Alt e sagt no
Eg skal drømme gode drømmer
No går det over, no går det over

No går det over
Alt e sagt no
Eg skal drømme gode drømmer

No går det over, no går det over
No går det over

De mange dagene
Days keep passing by

Eg faller
I am falling

Faller du
Are you also falling?

Og alt eg klarer e å etterlate deg til
All I can do is leave you behind

Alle de sultne dyrene Som venter på sin rette
All the hungry animals waiting for their prey

Eg går når du blir tung å bære
I leave when you become too much to handle

Så kordan kan eg tro på deg Vite det at varmen e i morgen og At du vil bære meg hver natt
How can I believe you when you promise to be there every night when I know I cannot depend on it?

Eg har det vondt
I am in pain

No går det over Alt e sagt no Eg skal drømme gode drømmer No går det over, no går det over
It's all over now, everything has been said. I will dream good dreams as it all fades away.

Eg vil ikkje vite mere Bare leve i troen på at alt blir bra Så snart vi alle kan gå videre
I don't want to know anymore, I just want to believe that everything will be okay once we all move on.

Eg har blitt til levende hat Tror du det e min feil Eg sa nei hundre ganger Du hørte aldri feil Og du mener at alt eg e e Meg meg meg
I have become a living embodiment of hate. You blame me but I said no a hundred times. You never listened. And you think all I am is just me, me, me.
