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He has an official site at https://www.kygomusic.com/ but at this moment it is about 5 years out of date.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.")
The Way We Were
Kygo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just like nothin' ever changed at all
Guess I'm hopin' that it means
It's not too late for second chances
Oh, I'm alive through the memories
Yeah, I just can't let 'em die
Say we can go back, darlin'
Just the way we were
Yeah, numb, there
Ain't no meaning, I don't miss it
Say someday we'll be dancin'
Just the way we were
Just the way we were
Just the way we were
Just the way we were
Just the way we were
Just the way we were
Oh, yeah, yeah, don't
True, it's all the little things
Day drunk, dancin' with your eyes closed
Start out just a couple drinks
End up wonderin' where the night goes
I'm alive through the memories
Yeah, I just can't let 'em die
Time races, life-changing
Say we can go back, darlin'
Just the way we were
Yeah, numb, there
Ain't no meaning, I don't miss it
Say someday we'll be dancin'
Just the way we were
Just the way we were
Just the way we were
Just the way we were
Just the way we were
Oh, yeah, yeah, don't
Kygo's "The Way We Were" is a song that invokes a sense of longing for a time long gone. Through the lyrics, we see the singer struggling with the passage of time, wishing they could go back to a simpler, happier time. The song begins with the line "Last night, you were in my dream, just like nothin' ever changed at all," which immediately sets the tone for the nostalgia that follows. The singer is reminiscing about a past love and the good times they shared, hoping that it's not too late for a second chance.
Throughout the chorus, the singer expresses a desire to relive the memories and go back to how things used to be. The line "Time races, life-changing, say we can go back, darlin'" highlights the realization that time is fleeting and things are constantly changing, but the desire to hold onto the past remains strong. The second verse of the song further drives home this sentiment by describing the little moments that made the past so special, like "day drunk, dancin' with your eyes closed."
Overall, the song captures the bittersweet feeling of nostalgia and the struggle to come to terms with the inevitability of change. It's a reminder that memories are powerful, and even though we can't go back in time, we can still hold onto those happy moments and cherish them forever.
