One of the great tunes that helped defined the 80's. Norwegian band Aha, lead by lead singer Morten Harket, delivered a driving beat and a great killer synth riff on the original. This stripped down version only greater highlights his wonderful voice. Beautiful version. Great reaction Harri and great memory Clint. 👏👏 Cheers from Canada. ❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦

This is gorgeous. Such a great request and commentary. Thanks Harri and Clint 🌺✌️

Absolutely great. Perfect for our later years. Good choice, Clint. Thanks, Harri.

I Love this version Harri...best wishes to you...Always!

Love this one, and fun fact since they didn't have autotune he has sung this song hitting the high notes at least 200 times a year since the 80's!

A-ha is a fantastic band consisting of three very creative and skilled musicians. It's a shame America never got to know the band apart from "Take on me". The song is undoubtedly a classic and this version takes it to another level. In Europe, they continued to produce hits on a continuous basis in the 80s and early 90s. The Norwegian band released their 11th studio album in autumn 2022, and are one of the world's biggest live bands. They have/have held two records in the Guinness Book of Records; highest paying audience with 198,000 at Rock in Rio in 1991 (a record that stood for 26 years) and Morten's record for longest note in a UK Top 40 song at 20.2 seconds in "Summer moved on". I recommend that you check out more of the band's music. They have developed over the decades, and have tried out different genres, but have always preserved the familiar a-ha sound. They are the only artist from a non-English-speaking country to have provided the soundtrack to a Bond film with "The living daylights". I recommend you check out the aforementioned "Summer moved on" (preferably live Oslo Spektrum 2010), the sequel to "Take on me", "The sun always shines on TV", "Stay on these roads", "Manhattan Skyline", "Scoundrel Days" , "Analogue". "True North" and "I'm in" are from their latest album. Great stuff.

This an amazing version even if you wasn't into aha you can't deny how good this is!

I so enjoy many of the unplugged versions of songs..so beautiful 😍

This is great!!!!! it was one of my favorite songs when i was teenager

Phenomenal! I keep this one in my 1973 jukebox still! Awesome tune!

This is the version that taught me the actual words. I definitely didn’t know it was “in a day or two.” Love this version so much. I agree. Release it and make some money if they can.

So unique that 1 song, same lyrics, can give you such another feeling.

Always loved the unplugged stuff. Even if not totally acoustic

Beautiful…

Harri spoke of hearing the lyrics more easily in the unplugged sessions and I was thinking the same thing as the song progressed. This is gold -- so, so good!! I was seeing the video and hearing the original 80's video in my head as I was listening, and I wasn't missing it! This slowed-down version brings this song to a new light. Thank you, Clint and Harri for this excellent selection, arrangement and reaction!

Thankyou for doing true reaction

Morten participated in The Masked Singer UK and even performed this version of the song and no one of the judges even guessed it was him. 😅

Clint, this is yet another great submission from you. I enjoyed this very much.

Nice...

I can't believe I've never heard this. It's stunning. Great request. Thank you!!❤❤

Love it but I have only ever seen the cartoon version. Love this song, Thanks Clint and Harri.

Thank you Clint ❤ Has been on my list for a long time ☺️ Absolutely beautifull and Thank you Harri 🌼🤩👍

Until I saw this version I had no idea the lyrics hit so hard...I don't think I ever even really knew them lol

A lot of these 80's singers still sound great. Youve probably seen Billy Ocean doing Suddenly live, but if not you should definitely check it out.

Hi Mr. Harri, I thought they were saying "for eternity',. ♠Mr.G..

Morten ❤

Please react to Ry X - Howling

Unplugged, then you can hear the really can sing.

!00%

This does not even close to to aha from back in the 8o s and he sings with auto tune fake
