Solo records
Espen Lind released his first solo album, Mmm...Prepare To Be Swayed, in 1995 under the moniker, 'Sway'. Only released in Norway, it received mixed reviews and sold approximately 5,000 copies. His commercial breakthrough came in 1997 with the single "When Susannah Cries" which was a hit in several European and Latin American countries, including Norway where it was number one for six weeks. His second album Red went on to sell more than 100,000 copies in Norway, and 350,000 copies worldwide, earning Lind three Norwegian Grammy awards (Spellemannprisen) in 1998, including Artist of the Year.
2000 saw Lind releasing his third album, This Is Pop Music, and the singles "Black Sunday" and "Life Is Good". The album also contains a duet, "Where the Lost Ones Go," with Norwegian singer Sissel Kyrkjebø. The album reached gold status in Norway but was generally perceived to be a commercial disappointment compared to its predecessor. After a 3 year break Lind released a new single, "Unloved," in December 2004, followed by the album April, in January 2005.

Synopsis
A king and queen had several children, but loved them only if they were good and beautiful. One, Alidor, being ugly, in time left his parents secretly. More distressed over their reputation than his fate, they sent after him, but he had chosen his path with care and vanished. He met a young man in service to the King of the Woods and heard of his beautiful daughter Livorette, and so resolved to go there. Once there, Livorette and all her ladies laughed at his ugliness. The queen, however, drew him aside and inquired after him. He soon became a favorite at the court because of his intelligence and courtesy, but Livorette still laughed at him, and being madly in love with her, Alidor soon became melancholy. Trying to distract himself, he fished, but he caught nothing, and Livorette mocked him for it. One day, he caught a dolphin. The dolphin asked him to put it back, promising to help him, and reasoned with him about the princess. When he freed it, he despaired, but it came back and gave him an abundance of fish. It then discussed how to win Livorette, saying it would be necessary to deceive her. He brought back the fish, and then turned himself into a canary. In this form, he wooed the princess but would not speak to anyone else.

Happy
by: Espen LindShe understands the way you feel
She knows about the things you’re hiding
As long as she is there for you
You will know how to live
You hear footsteps on the floor
You see the world in better colours
And nothing tastes the same no more
Now that you know how to live
You’re happy to feel
Happy to stay
Happy to drive in to work every day
No one can break it, or take it away
Cos you have found your way
So this is where it’s taken you
So many years it took you to get there
And all the things you’ve had to do
Just to learn how to live
You’re happy to feel
Happy to stay
Happy to drive in to work every day
No one can break it, or take it away
Cos you have found your way
Cos she has saved you
And she has made you
Yeah she has been the one that you can lean on
No indecision
No blurry vision
And no one ever made you see so far
You’re happy to feel
Happy to stay
Happy to drive in to work every day
No one can break it, or take it away
