a-ha vs The Weeknd - Take On Me vs Blinding Lights (Mashup)
I made this mashup when I heard Blinding Lights for the first time but I never uploaded it because it kind of sounded bad with the filtered instrumental and it didn't help that I had to pitch both songs a lot because of their different keys, so I preferred to wait for the official Blinding Lights materials to leak, also I know this mashup has already been made many times but most of them were off key so I wanted to make this version
If you wanna hear the reversed version you can watch it here:
• Take On Blinding Light...

Blinding lights is like a 2010 version of take on me. The melody, vocal and beats make the two songs have a very similar vibe. Thats why blinding lights remind people of the 80's music, cause blinding lights is literally take on me but with a few small adjustments

I mean no, different key and completely different main progression...in full, you're incorrect, your taking two pieces of music that have one thing in common, the beat, fucking hell, take on mes been sped up slightly in areas so again you're fucking wrong, head ass.
Take On Me will always be one of my all time fave pop songs haha

Shame...if this played then at least The Weeknd would’ve had a guest
When I heard blinding lights, I thought that it has some kind of relations with Take On me and now KZread algorithm has proved it
I thought I was the only one that Thought Weeknd was bringing back the A-ha Take on me Vibes with Blinding Lights. Now Save your Tears. The Weeknd is a very talented Singer.

Never bad to hear more than one take, creators often have different ideas.
I was 9 years old when TOM was released. It has always been one of my favorite videos/songs of all time. TOM was reincarnated into Blinding Lights and it is so effing deliciously soul-quenching that listening to this mashup has literally just given me 10 more years of life. Thank you. I'm young again. lulz
When I searched for an A-Ha "Take on Me" / the Weeknd "Blinding Lights" mashup this was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for making it!!!

O M G.. this is absolutely beautiful!! The intertwining harmonization is just Angelic and pieced together so perfectly!!! I did not expect that. Bravo!!
i love the way you changed the pitch of take on me, not just shifting the whole song but altering it note by note, to work with the vastly different key of Blinding lights. it would be interesting to hear the entire song shifted into the new key, honestly. no one else has done anything near what you've done with it, and in every other remix the shift in tone from blinding lights to Take on me is very jarring and makes the remix messy. every time i hear other remixes it always leads me back to this video.

This is the perfect mix of 2 very similar songs. Undoubtedly The Weeknd was heavily influenced by A-Ha
I love this! Sounds amazing! Perfect balance of both songs!
This is perfect... just what I needed
I got full body chills while listening to this, damn, this is amazing!!
Fun fact: 1's from the 80's and 1 sounds like the 80's. The Weeknd is basically the new Aha. Both should collab.
What a Mashup! Incredible 😍😍
This is what I called PERFECTION!
This. Is . So . Good 🔥♥️ thank you so much for this!!! Two of my favorite songs in one 🔥♥️😭 I'm hyped

Dude this sounds amazing!!
Leaving this comment because this video is so quality that I can't just like and move on with my life. How on EARTH does this not have more views or likes??!!?!??! This is GODLY. It's been years since I've actually seen (heard?) anyone do a LEGIT mashup, usually favoring to just flip-flop parts.That chorus is heavenly- this whole song wasn't a mashup, it was an EXPERIENCE. I love how you have their voices layering over each other in many parts and how well the music goes together. I know it takes more effort to do a mashup right, and SHIT does that effort pay off. I tip my hat to you, I salute you, I offer you my firstborn, this song literally improved my day and is now right at the top of my "Songs to get high to" list. I don't think I'm going to be getting this out of my head for a while, and honestly, I want this song to live in my head rent-free. Basically, great job champ.
Criminal that this doesnt have more views, damn amazing work!
I love this version keep in making more please
This must be the most amazing mashup of these two songs I could have hoped to hear, beautifully made!! =D If there's just one thing I would want though, it would have been to hear the main synth riff of Take On Me play just once more somewhere near the end instead of only at the beginning, but that's just my two cents! STILL OMG thank you for making this!!!!!
This is amazing!
I can listen to this all day❤️🔥
This is amazing!!!! ♥️♥️
this is exactly video that i want hear. good job!!!
