1) Kim L… Read Full Bio ↴There are several Danish musicians by the name Kim Larsen:
1) Kim Larsen (Kim Melius Flyvholm Larsen, Copenhagen, Denmark, 23 October 1945 - 30 September 2018) was a Danish rock singer, guitarist and songwriter, known for his solo career as well as being the lead singer of Gasolin'.
Inspired by The Beatles and rock'n'roll, Kim Larsen began writing songs and playing guitar. In 1969 he met Franz Beckerlee and Willi Jønsson. The three of them founded Gasolin' and were later joined by drummer Søren Berlev.
After Gasolin' released their second album, Kim Larsen left the band due to creative differences, but he was quickly convinced to rejoin the band again. In 1973, prior to Gasolin' releasing their third album, Larsen recorded his first solo album, Værsgo. Another followed in 1978, when Gasolin' disbanded. That same year he released a live album, Vogt dem for efterligninger, under the name Starfuckers (together with Stig Møller).
Larsen released several records under his own name in the early and mid 80s, most notably Midt om natten. In 1986 he founded a new band Kim Larsen & Bellami. The band released four albums up until 1992, when they disbanded again. Larsen then recorded another solo album, Hvem kan sige nej til en engel, before he moved to Odense in 1995 and found more success with his new band Kim Larsen & Kjukken. The band continues to record and perform live to this day and they released their latest studio album, Gammel Hankat, in 2006.
For almost four decades, Kim Larsen has had a number of successful album releases as a solo artist and is one of the most influential and popular artists in Danish popular music history. He remains a top concert draw in Scandinavia and his 1983 album Midt Om Natten is the most sold album in Denmark with more than 532,000 copies shipped (as of 2010). As a solo artist Kim Larsen has sold approximately 3 million records, an exceptional feat for an artist recording in Danish.
2) Kim Larsen is one of Denmark's leading underground figures, best known for his work with doom metal band Saturnus and his solo folk-noir project Of the Wand and the Moon. He has also issued records under the Solanaceae and The Loveless banners, and is a member of and lyricist in the band Black Wreath.
Om lidt
Kim Larsen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Om lidt er det forbi
Fik du set det du ville
Fik du hørt din melodi
Forladt og alene
Danser cirkus prinsessen rundt
Går i stå
I et sanseløst sekund
Om lidt om lidt
Er vi borte
Vi ses måske igen
Om lidt bli’r her stille
Om lidt er det forbi
Fik du set det du ville
Fik du hørt din melodi
Om lidt, om lidt
Er vi borte
Vi ses måske igen
Om lidt, om lidt
Er vi borte
Vi ses måske igen
Dudi dudi duu….
"Om lidt" is a melancholic song by Kim Larsen, a famous Danish rock musician, singer, and songwriter. The lyrics convey the message that life is fleeting and that we need to cherish every moment, to get what we want, and to listen to our inner music. The song starts with the repetition of the phrase "Om lidt bli’r her stille" meaning that everything will soon be quiet and still, and then "Om lidt er det forbi" signifying that everything will soon be over. The lines "Fik du set det du ville, fik du hørt din melodi" ask if you got what you wanted and if you heard your own tune. The wider message conveyed by the song is that we need to appreciate life and pursue our goals and dreams before it's too late.
The next part of the song talks about a lonely circus princess who dances alone on her tightrope, and in a moment of desperation, she almost falls. The lyrics state that in a second, everything can change, and it's crucial to make the most of life before it's over. The chorus repeats again, saying that soon everything will be over, and we might not meet again, and we should make the most of life now. The song ends with a calming melody, "Dudi dudi duu," which provides the listener with a sense of peace and reflection.
