It took 4 months to draw the 3,000 drawings used in the video. The technique is called rotoscoping, and is actually more than a hundred years old. The artist is Michael Patterson, and the director is Steve Barron. Very time consuming technique, so we are unlikely to see more videos like this. The video helped promote the song and the band, but the song stands well on its own. The band's manager says that it has been played 350 times a day on the radio in the US for more than 35 years. Fantastic band. I highly recommend you check out more of their music. Next song: The sun always shines on TV.

This song and video came out in the fall of 1985 when I was pregnant with my son. It always reminds me of that time when I was so happy and excited to become a mom. My son died 5 years ago and I started hearing it again, a lot. Wherever I'm at, in a store, coffee shop, bar, this song would come on and I became convinced somehow Michael had something to do with it. It happened too often, it wasn't a coin.

Hunting High And Low, Manhattan Skyline, Stay On These Roads, Crying In The Rain, Summer Moved On, Forever Not Yours, Foot Of The Mountain, Butterfly Butterfly, and so many more.

Great reaction guys!! This made my Friday. Perhaps in the US they were more a one-hit wonder - not so here in Canada. The follow up to this song, The Sun Always Shines on TV is another synth marvel (and my favourite a-ha song!), and the album title track - Hunting High and Low (beautiful ballad) were quite popular here! My sister introduced me to a-ha when I was 6 - and I've never looked back! Great group. This video still holds up amazing today, as does the song! Now that you saw this version, you should react to their 'unplugged' version from 2017. Firstly, Morten Harket's voice is still incredible, but they've turned it into a ballad. It's not often where the same song can take on two completely different meanings when a span of 30 years are involved! Other tracks to check: Manhattan Skyline, Scoundrel Days, Stay On These Roads, Lifelines, I've Been Losing You... Cheers!!

Ok, true diner “love” story circa 1991. Guy walked in, really cute. I just happened to be in my best dress having lunch with another female from work. I had a bit more confidence that day and he and I kept making eye contact. Even as we walked out the door I looked at him one more time. We’d just made it to the car when I heard him running up behind me. We were running late and I was embarrassed despite my new found confidence so I just told him I had to go back to work. As we drove away my friend yelled out where we worked and what department I was in. He showed up 10 minutes later and we went out a few times. We didn’t really fit and mutually agreed we were done. But it’s a great memory to have. An interesting dude note, the girl I was having lunch with became a friend of mine after I discovered the guy I was seeing was also seeing her telling me they were just friends. I was a feminist (retired around 2000, war was over) so I was cool with it, I had platonic male friends. Anyway, he told her we were just friends. She and I spoke one day and his web of lies fell apart. We found out there was a 3rd girl so we tracked her down and, long story short, told her who he really was.

They are Norwegian. Morten ( lead ), Mags ( keyboard ) and Pal ( guitar , and his name is like our Paul. I went and saw them in concert in 7th grade. That was in '87 I think. AMAZING VIDEO. It swept up a bunch of awards.

The end of the video is a nod to the end of the 1980 movie "Altered States"

The Sun Always Shines on TV, you gotta react to now. And the acoustic version they do of Take On Me is amazing.

Everything on these days is considering a creep lol but we aren't getting into it anyways this music video was one of the most iconic from 80s ahead at its time and cost lot of money as well. even being a metalhead myself I can appreciate this classic who has been growing up not in the 80s but 90s.

The band are from Norway and lead singer Morton was my teenage crush 😂 another great song 'the sun always shines on tv' is a must to react to.

Guys, you have to check out the newest Linkin Park song. It's called Friendly Fire and it's as close to brand new as it can possible be - it's an unreleased single from One More Light sessions. And it's a banger. Beautiful, powerful song.

As a metal head in high school…this band was pretty much sacra religious! But this song is a classic for sure!

They are pretty huge here in Europe, only a one hit wonder in the US, had nine top ten songs in the UK, five more in the Top 20 and sold more than 100 million records worldwide. You really should check out more of them, probably starting off with The Sun Always Shines On TV which was the follow-up single to Take On Me, #1 in the UK and the video starts where the one from Take On Me ends.

I've been an A-Ha fan since I was about 5 years old when this song came out. I finally got to see them in 2022 and was absolutely blown away. Morten still has the voice, and the rest of the band still play as tight as when they first started.

It’s a-ha! Like you had an epiphany. That’s what it “means,” but it isn’t quite pronounced that emphatically! These guys are HUGE around the world with many albums and singles. Just not here in the States. They were Knighted in Norway, hold World Records and many other great accomplishments. A band to be reckoned with, even if we Americans think of them as a “one hit wonder.” Our loss, guys.

Not much of a fan of Scandinavian Techno-Pop Love Songs, but this one is a lot of fun. And the girl is pretty smoking hot. A real blast from the past, MTV era.

I would LOVE LOVE❤if you could react to a song called "Would I Lie to You" by Charles and Eddie. I'm not sure, but this might be a one hit wonder. Could be completely wrong, but anyway, I've NEVER seen anyone react to this, and it is so fricken smooth. If I could pay for a request I would dot it in a heartbeat, but alas i can not.😔 I really hope you will do this for me!!! Thanks guys, you are the best either way❤❤❤
