So Easy

"So Easy" is a song by Norwegian duo Röyksopp, released as their first single. It was first made available in 1999, with only 500 copies made and distributed. It was later re-released on Röyksopp's debut album Melody A.M. "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 and Pals. The sampled lyrics are "Blue on blue, heartache on heartache/Blue on blue, Now that we are through."
