The best singer in the world from the best band in the world - A-HA live. Such a criminally unappreciated band who i have loved since in 1985 when take on me was out. I was 16 then and i’m 53 now and still love them just as much. This is what real music is about for all you out there who gave up on A-HA after the take on me days i hope this makes you realise just what you’ve been missing. A-HA have a huge back catalogue of music. Take on me is just the tiniest tip of their musical iceberg and another thing that’s cool about A-HA is that none of their songs sound the same each one is different and has its own personality . Summer Moved On was about them splitting up.

Les filles qui bavaient jusque là devant Morten et Magne les ont trouvés "moches" avec les cheveux longs et la barbe (il y a eu beaucoup de cœurs brisés chez la gent féminine dans mon lycée à l'époque), et les médias qui les avaient catalogués de boys band pour midinettes prépubères se sont trouvés fort embarrassés de voir que le groupe avait évolué vers un look moins poster boy et une musique plus rock, plus organique et avec moins de synthé.

Used my iphone to stopwatch the held note with my musician friends joining in as well. Morten did it live too and BEAT his own record, it was unearthly.

Great analysis. A-ha it's a so undermined band. They made great songs but with no too much publicity. I have a lot musicians friends and a few more in my family. The most of them told me (and these are not my words) they say Morten Harket is better than Freddie Mercury. They gave me many reasons why, but they know more than me. What I can say and I've seen A-ha live three times, live I've seen Morten doing things that Freddy never did. But for me they're different. This guy, as you said do many difficult things to do as a vocalist. You should hear Take on me live on Vallhalla, I wish I care (studio version), Shadow Endeavors, Dark is the night. Rolling Thunder live in Buenos Aires, Scoundrel Days, Living a boy's adventure tale, White Canvas, Solace....
