Kygo started to learn to play the piano at age six through lessons. He decided to have a go at remixes and creating electronic music after discovering Avicii at age 15-16. After receiving over 80 million hits on YouTube and Soundcloud, Kygo was contacted by both Avicii and Chris Martin of Coldplay to create official remixes of one the artists' songs.
His remix of "I See Fire" entered Romania's Top 40 and remained there for 14 weeks, peaking at Number 2 as of June 3rd, 2014.
When creating/remixing music Kygo uses Logic Studio.
His track "It Ain't Me," with Selena Gomez, has exceeded 1 billion plays on Spotify.
He has an official site at https://www.kygomusic.com/ but at this moment it is about 5 years out of date. (In 2020 it refers to his "hotly anticipated album scheduled for 2015.")
Stranger Things
Kygo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're like, like we're stranger things (very far)
We're stranger things (dream of places at)
'Cause that's just who we are
We'd used to run around this ghost town
Always thinking out loud
Are we gonna get out
We dream of places that we could go
Castles with the strange glow
People that we don't know
I remember
We left a life
That's ordinary from the start
We looked for stranger things
'Cause that's just who we are
Found me the edge of something beautiful and loud
Like I'm picturing now
Castles glitter under Spanish skies
But I'm just looking out for you tonight
Snow white mountains in a foreign state
Tell me someday we'll get there
Someday
Someday
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
I see a Technicolor shadow
Underneath your window
Just in case you don't know
I can see it
You cast an unfamiliar day glow
Different than what I know
Shining like a halo
I can feel it
We turned our back on ordinary from the start
We looked for stranger things
'Cause that's just who we are
Found me the edge of something beautiful and loud
Show me the sky falling down
Castles glitter under Spanish skies
But I'm just looking out for you tonight
Snow white mountains in an ancient place
Tell me someday we'll get together
Someday
Someday
Ay, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
A stranger things
We're like, we're like a stranger things (very far)
We're stranger things (dream of places at)
'Cause that's just who we are
A stranger things
We're like, we're like a stranger things (very far)
We're stranger things (dream of places at)
'Cause that's just who we are
A stranger things
We're like, we're like a stranger things (very far)
We're stranger things (dream of places at)
'Cause that's just who we are
A stranger things
We're like, we're like a stranger things (very far)
We're stranger things (dream of places at)
'Cause that's just who we are
A stranger things
We're like, we're like a stranger things (very far)
We're stranger things (dream of places at)
'Cause that's just who we are
Kygo's song "Stranger Things" speaks about two individuals who have left behind their ordinary lives and seek more excitement and adventure. The song reflects on their past, dreaming of leaving a ghost town and exploring new places full of wonder, like castles that have an unusual glow and have people they don't know. They talk about how they turned their backs on ordinary life from the start in search of strange things that define who they are. They feel like they are different from the rest of the world, portrayed in the lyrics as "Stranger Things."
The chorus of the song emphasizes the feeling of distance from ordinary life; they feel like they are very far from everything they've known. But despite this distance, they still hold on to their dreams of traveling together to exotic places, under Spanish skies, surrounded by snow-white mountains, and exploring ancient areas. The song's bridge discloses a shadow from under a window, and the dreamers' halo is shining brighter than anything they've ever known. They assert the fact that they are strange, different, and dreamy, and these aspects are who they are.
