Kasper is also one half of Copenhagen’s Filur (V2 Scandinavia) with partner Tomas Barfod (Tomboy/Who Made Who) but this is his first solo album. Borrowing from synth fuelled club music, New York Punk Funk and intelligent pop music he has crafted a subtle, outstanding album. Vocals come courtesy of Icelanders FM Belfast and Blake (Gus Gus) as well as New York angelic sisters The Pierces (Lizard King). Kasper also enrolled the services of Liquid Liquid’s Dennis Young whose classic percussion brings a great live feel to ‘Liquid Propagnosia’. The first single ‘Back & Spine’ gets a great acid remix by Tomboy and Trentemøller is remixing the second single ‘Humming Song’. The music Kasper has created with ‘In Gumbo’ proves he is a phenomenal producer and when you hear him DJ you realize why he is a household name in Denmark: he rocks the dancefloor, currently holding down a residency at the legendary club VEGA in Copenhagen while still travelling around the world to DJ at clubs and festivals, most recently in Beijing, Berlin, Barcelona and Reykjavik, where he is also booked for the renowned Iceland Airwaves Festival 2007 in October.
Young Again
Kasper Bjørke Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The weight of the world, already too much to bear
You do it too loud, mix it up with vanilla
The sound is the best I have heard for a million years
From the thunder that came, I was never the same
And I would stop to think of what to do
I was taking a leap, I was playing for keeps with you
The many touches on my skin
That's lying between now and then
The many kisses on my chin
So severe
I can't believe the state I'm in
I can't believe what's happening
We'll never be this young again
Guenivere
A comic relief that makes room for my decision
To tighten the rope so that you never will forget
The music that comes from when playing with precision
The words are too rough, I can't shake it from off my head
I was making a mess for the better, I guess
With a desire to be understood
There were people around with the need to get down for good
The many touches on my skin
That's lying between now and then
The many kisses on my chin
So severe
I can't believe the state I'm in
I can't believe what's happening
We'll never be this young again
Guenivere
The song "Young Again" by Kasper Bjørke starts off by talking about the weight of the world being too much to bear, and even though it is loud, it is the best sound the singer has heard in a million years. It is not clear what the sound is, but it is implied that it is something that is bringing the singer joy. There is a reference to a thunder that came and made the singer never be the same. They are taking a leap and playing for keeps, possibly with someone they love.
The chorus talks about the many touches on the singer's skin lying between now and then, and the many kisses on their chin. The state they are in is severe, and they can't believe what is happening. But the title of the song, "Young Again," is a reminder that despite everything, the moment they are experiencing is fleeting and will never come again. The reference to Guenivere is unclear, but it could be a name, a reference to King Arthur's queen or a reference to another love interest.
The second verse speaks to the singer's desire to be understood despite making a mess, while there were people around who were looking to "get down for good." The feeling of not being understood is revisited with the mention of music that is "too rough" and can't be shaken from the singer's head. This could be an allusion to the difficulty of expressing oneself and the limitations of language.
Overall, the song appears to be about the fleeting nature of youth and love, with a deep sense of longing and desire for something that is both unattainable and yet still being chased after.

Enough is enough, no one stops the catarpillar

You stand out and bring something unique to the table
The sound is the best I have heard for a million years
The sounds you create are incredible and unmatched for a long time
From the thunder that came, I was never the same
A significant event impacted me and changed me forever
And I would stop to think of what to do
I was in deep thought about my next move
I was taking a leap, I was playing for keeps with you
I was fully committed and taking a significant risk with you
The many touches on my skin
Memories of physical intimacy
That's lying between now and then
Memories of the past and present coexisting
The many kisses on my chin
Memories of endearing moments
So severe
Emotional intensity of the moment

End of stanza
A comic relief that makes room for my decision
Something amusing helps me process the situation and make decisions
To tighten the rope so that you never will forget
I want to make a lasting impact on you
The music that comes from when playing with precision
The sounds created through careful practice and attention to detail
The words are too rough, I can't shake it from off my head
The message is hard-hitting and I can't stop thinking about it
I was making a mess for the better, I guess
Causing chaos in the short term for long term benefits
With a desire to be understood
Wanting others to comprehend my perspective
There were people around with the need to get down for good
Others were determined to party and have a good time
