I'd Rather Dance with You

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'd Rather Dance with You is the eighth song from the album Riot on an Empty Street by Kings of Convenience. It was released as a single November 2, 2004. The video begins in a ballet studio where the teacher orders young Erlend Øye out of the room due to his unconventional dancing. The scene then shifts to a room where Erlend dances to a record and Eirik Glambek Bøe plays the piano. Ballet students then enter the room and practice the basic steps. However, they begin to dance to Erlend's unconventional ways, particularly "the swing." The video culminates in a dance recital with Eirik accompanying the dancers by playing piano and Erlend watching backstage. The dance students and Kings of Convenience take a bow in the end.
