Lorraine Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) I had a couple of their albums in the 80's and thought the lead singer was the most handsome guy I had ever seen next to Don Johnson. I liked them a lot. In case you forgot what they sounded like: http://youtu.be/a3ir9HC9vYg Edited November 6, 2019 by Lorraine 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that video might be the greatest ever produced - A stunning achievement for that format. It still holds up beautifully. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova Carmina Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 I only know the "one-hit wonder" version of A-ha. That song I like a lot, though. Oh, I guess I also know and like "The Living Daylights," so I'm 2/2 with A-ha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Take On Me is one of the most iconic videos from the 80s. Unfortunately, I don't think I know anything else from them. I don't believe they had any other hits in the US. At least none as big as Take On Me was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoopid Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 (edited) I also liked Scoundrel Days but haven't paid any attention since, and I know they're still viable as a popular band in Europe. Holy crap that was like 30+ years ago. [if you've never heard this song... "wait for it" ] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WY2r28M1TrY Edited November 7, 2019 by stoopid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe they had any other hits in the US. At least none as big as Take On Me was. Take On Me, Sun Always Shines on TV, and Cry Wolf were about it in the US. They managed a career in Europe through recently, but their peak were those first two albums. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-ha_discography Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
