Henning Kvitnes - Jenta i Änglagård

Henning Kvitnes is one of Norway's finest singer/songwriters, operating in a decidedly American musical landscape populated by people like Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Swedish maestro Ulf Lundell. However, Kvitnes has a style all his own, and after he started consequently writing in Norwegian he's become steadily more popular and, many would say, better and better. "Jenta i Änglagård" is one of his many perfect recordings, a ballad filled with longing and apprectiation for both the bigger and the smaller things in life. The song is taken from his 1998 album Evig eies (kun et dårlig rykte).
