From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"So Easy" was the first single released by Norwegian duo Röyksopp. Originally it was released in 1999, with only 500 copies made and distributed. Later it was re-released on Röyksopp's debut album. "So Easy" contains instrumental and vocal samples from a 1960s cover version of the Burt Bacharach/Hal David song "Blue on Blue" recorded by a Swedish vocal group called Gals & Pals. (It had originally been recorded by Bobby Vinton). The sampled lyrics are: "Blue On Blue, Heartache On Heartache/Blue On Blue, Now That We Are Through." "So Easy" was used for a time on British television adverts for T-Mobile, as well as the displays between programs on Channel 4.
After "So Easy" was used in said T-Mobile ad in the UK, the single was re-released, with the groups hit "Remind Me" as the A-Side and "So Easy" as the B-side.
