The lead singer looks like an angel singing. Aside from his heavenly voice, his facial feature is so unique like a mannequin or a supermodel.

Way back in the 80s when these guys came out I thought their sounds was incredible, but the radio only played the "hits". So, I went out and bought the CD. Absolutely loved this song and played it over and over while I was working in my shop aboard the aircraft carrier I was assigned. Now, here I am, age 57, and still love this song almost 35 years later.

"Hunting High and Low" is a must - my favourite and their best song in my opinion. So many people are blinded by "Take on Me". I would love to see Duran Duran on here soon; "Planet Earth" 1981 is a good start.

Still gives me goosebumps after all these years.

a-ha is, without reservation, my favourite band ever. I have absolutely loved watching your reactions and I would love to see you react to more of their songs. Velvet is a good one, and Summer Moved on, but really, I'm not sure you can pick a bad song from their catalog. As for your interpretations, I think both of those could be valid. 'We will meet again', or 'just have faith that one day you will meet the one you're waiting for.'

A-Ha have such a great back catalogue. This is one of several favourites from them. Hunting High And Low, I've Been Losing You, Scoundrel Days, Manhattan Skyline, Cry Wolf. Glad you're giving them a listen 😁👍

A-Ha are still touring and morten is still a fantastic vocalist , until covid they were in the middle of a sold out world tour 35 years after their first hit. They have never stopped recording or touring, still very successful in Europe and around the world

They did stop, for a while. There were at least two times that they "broke up" to do their own thing for a while. I'm so glad they still work together. Their best work is when they're together, imo.

Cyn's Corner they had hiatus’s from the group but were as i say still writing , recording and some touring during that time, as individuals so never stopped.. it’s just in their blood isnt it?

Another really cool song and video by a-ha is "Hunting High and Low." I think you'd really like that one as well! A-ha is one of my all-time favorite groups. Morten Harket's vocal range may be even larger than Freddie Mercury's.

@roden70

2 жыл бұрын

Morten's voice has a very broad reach. I believe it is 4 octaves. Just like Freddy. But they have a different reach with Morten being able to go higher and Freddy going lower.

I remember when i heard TAKE ON ME on the radio in the sommer 1985 here in Oslo Norway when i was 15 before it was a hit, and thinking this is BIG there are going to bi big, and so they whent to london made this video for 12.000 usd that was a lot of money then, and they blow up. so great. even saw them in concert here at home 1986 and on a misic festival in Danmark 2000 they still make music. listen to Spanish steps the singer is Morten Harket from oslo. and he van still hit high notes and falsettos!

Gorgeous song, gorgeous guys. This song makes me feel emotional, whatever it's meaning. Morten Harket - THE voice! You will not be disappointed with any a-ha song.

A-ha - Hunting High and Low (is emotional !)

Never heard this song before. Nice melody and sound, and of course, Morten has an amazing voice!

Thanks so much for bringing this song back into my mind and ears again. Such a wonderful song, full of emotions - I loved it so much when I was young, back in the 1980ies. Anyway, these guys from Norway made a bunch of wonderful songs. I miss their music :-(

I'm melting, after all I am an 80s kid and a 90s teen.

Love A-ha.....Try Hunting High & Low or Summer Moved On. If you want something less known, There's Never A Forever Thing is an amazing song.

Very true. It's one of my favourites as well.

Morten ,the lead singer,was my big crush in my childhood.i was litterally in love with him .I had plenty of posters and i slept with one of the pictures, protected by a plastic wrapping pocket lol🤣🤣🤣i know,i was crazy

One of the best vocalists. He have a solo career too (try "A Kind Of Christmas Card"-Morten Harket)

My TOP 5 A-HA songs (best band ever): 1. The Sun Always shines on TV 2. Take on me 3. Stay on these Roads 4. I've been losing you. 5. Out of Blue comes Green. Extra Bonus: There's Never a Forever Thing and Summer moved on. Regards from Spain.

my fellow norwegian Morten H has to have one off the best male voices smuud high notes and shitt.allways remember the film "camilla og tyven" that norwegian son and movie.btw check out angelina jordan.my fellow norwegian .and this girl has to be right at the topp when comes to female voices true history..peace a love

Never hears This OnlY THE sun always Shimes on tv Hunting Hight and Low and Of course Take om me. Beautiful

I just see it differently from you. To me the song is about a love he will still meet, so he asks her to continue staying on these roads until the day they will finally meet each other, that's what I feel every time I listen to this song. 😊 Peace! 😚

a-ha is unreal, the vocals and synthesizers, the video, the lead singer looks straight out of a comic..no pun intended..haha it's crazy they exist, like magic

Best.group.ever. I absolutely love them. Their music only got better as they got older too. Their 2000 and onward music is my favorite.

A-ha is from Norway and this song was released in 1988

This song reminds me how awesome A-ha is

They are still amazing today. Never a duff song.

Saw them live in Dubai last year. They are amazing live.

I do enjoy your reaction videos. I heard a-ha a lot in my time as a teenager.. this band was really popular in Germany back then. and all girls had a crush on Morten.

India, Definitely check out the A-HA MTV unplugged. Amazing stripped down versions that make you rethink their whole back catalogue. This song in particular is beautiful in the unplugged version!

I love A-Ha. Morten Harket's voice is otherworldly. He's an angel on earth with the face and body of a God. All three of these boys are gorgeous and super talented.

His voice is a God's gift; only Morten has got such stunning power!

Aha "Theres never a forever thing"...."the swing of things"....living a boys adventures tale...etc...so many great songs, excellent lyrics

Excellent ballad by the Norwegian band AHa! A classic from the 80s that they put in the clubs to "squeeze" haha. The lyrics are a bit cryptic but I think it speaks to us of a separation that is taking place and where her lover is asked to stay by her side in memory of the shadow of her love so that they continue along those paths where they will meet again. .

My older sis had her school folder covered with pictures of Morten Harket at the time. I couldn't care less about Harket's looks, but I still listen to A-Ha now and then. I find the synth melody in this song just haunting.

Take On Me was such a monster hit that it can't help eclipse the rest of their catalog but a-ha has such a deep catalog of truly great songs - vocals, music, so good! Hunting High and Low, The Sun Always Shines on TV, Scoundrel Days, The Swing of Things, How Sweet It Was, Memorial Beach.... just soo many great songs to explore.

The cold has a voice It talks to me Stillborn by choice And it has no need to hold Old man feels the cold Oh baby don't 'Cause I've been told Stay on these roads We shall meet, I know Stay on my love We shall meet, I know I know Where joy should reign These skies restrain Shadows your love The voice trails off again Old man feels the cold Oh baby don't 'Cause I've been told Stay on these roads We shall meet, I know Stay on my love You feel so weak, be strong Stay on, stay on We shall meet, I know I know I know, my love, I know Winter's gone, I'm on my own Stay on these roads We shall meet, I know Stay on my love We will meet, I know So stay on, I know Stay my love, stay on We will meet, I know, I know Love I know

I adore this song

The sun always shines on tv! Their best song.

It struck me when I listened to this again today that he sings partly to his unborn child, partly to himself (keep going) and to the child's mother ("Oh baby don't 'Cause I've been told" - at least you shouldn't have told me), who in cold blood chooses to end the pregnancy. Even as an old man, he will feel the cold sometime in the future. Where joy should reign there is nothing but cold and sorrow of an unborn life. The video shows how his friends will help him through the pain by being there by his side, "on the road" of life.

My favourite of their songs might be The Blood That Moves The Body. That one's absolutely badass.

OMG why can't I find reaction on A-ha There's Never a Forever Thing? The best song ever

By the way, Aha has always been hands-down my favorite band of all time. When you do reviews like this, you will draw their most ardent and long-term fans like me.

Nice reaction of my fellow countrymen. My first encounter was in '85 when my Sister talked me into buying their debut album. Favourites? "Scoundrel days", "living a Boys adventure tale" and "lifelines". "Lifelines" got a beautiful video which is based of a shortfilm made by some friends of my Sister. It is filmed over a year by a North Norwegian fishing village. A-ha liked it so much they bought up some of the rights, and in their version they're digitally placed in the movie.

She took one of my suggestions...... finally....... you guys.

I love the voice of the singer, the best video is, hunting high and low "from Aha!

It's a beautiful song, means dont stray too far from each other or who or what you know because you will meet again and be safe.

"The Swing of Things" and "I've Been Losing You" are all time classics

Love love love A-ha they are flawless! Amazing band! Try a modern hit like " under the makeup" infact there are alot to choose. But please listen to one from one of their latest albums. Thanks liked and subscribed and shared! Keep them coming! Please

Great reaction! A-ha is my favourite band lol, you should react to angel in the snow and memorial beach

My Nr.1. a-ha song (tied with The Sun Always Shines On TV) And the other wonders: Train of Thought, Manhattan Skyline, Living Daylights, You Are the One, Minor Earth Major Sky...

I really like your reactions and reviews better than most because you are very thoughtful and descriptive in your interpretations. Thank you for your excellent interpretation of this music and video.

Thank you, thank you so much!!! ❤ For react to a-ha!!! Very nice reaction 🙂 Please more a-ha, please 🙏❤

For me this had little meaning when I first heard it, but as with a lot of A-Ha songs, Life's experiences open the Lyrics to their true meaning.

Agree. I was young when A-ha broke through, and am from Norway like them. I was a big fan at first, but since the content of the text has always been important to me, they lost me along the way. Now I have found them again, and just love the experience of rediscovering music that is both known and unknown at the same time.

Totally love their greatest hits. So many to react to. Thank you for doing more than just Take On Me.

One of my favorite songs, ever. Thank you!

How about doing a reaction to A-ha's songs: Hunting High and Low, I've Been Losing You, The Living daylights, Crying in the Rain, Minor Earth Major sky, Lifelines

Thank yoy so much for doing this. Can you also please react to Blood that moves the body by a-ha?

Thanks for this one! I love to see your reaction video's, you really gets into the music you want to react to and I like to see that. May be you can do something of Magnum one time? They're the most underrated British rock band and still playing after 50 years. Magnums' style goes from soft ballads like "The last dance" and "It must have been love" (great video but look it with the 80's eyes) to rock like "When we were younger" to metal stuf and all is great. "Brand new morning" / "On a storyteller's night" are great to. Another great one who puts you in a good mood ould be Billy Joel with "It's a matter of trust" (Great good mood video)

A few more of theirs to look at, Train Of Thought, Cry Wolf, There Is Never A Forever Thing, my personal fave Hunting High And Low and their James Bond song The Living Daylights

Listen to a-ha songs that were not released as singles. There are a lot of diamonds hidden on their 10 studio records. Vor example 'Out of blue comes green', 'Giving up the ghost', 'A fine blue line', 'Start the simulator' ...

He's got the most stunning haunting voice I know! You should also do Hunting High and Low!

I love A-HA. Kisses from Brazil♡

"I've been losing you" is the strongest A-ha song in my opinion. I also enjoy "Move to Memphis."

Yes it’s about the loss of a loved one or waiting for your love you are waiting for , asking them to stay on their road until they eventually meet. He doesn’t actually say ‘meet again’ so it could be that too, waiting for your intended. But it seems to me it’s the separation of two ppl by whatever means

How about doing Don't Blame Your Daughter by The Cardigans. Such a lovely song with an interesting video.

That's a good song

I recommend you to listen to a live version from 1991 in Argentina, it is much better than the studio version.
