Hunting High And Low, Stay On These Roads, I've Been Losing You, Cry Wolf, The Blood That Moves The Body, Sycamore Leaves, Scoundrel Days, The Swing Of Things, Love Is Reason, We're Looking For The Whales, Touchy (Video version), Velvet, Summer Moved On (Live at the Valhall is the best version!!!) and the most successful solo song by Morten Harket: A Kind Of Christmas Card... ...just to mention a few of their greats!

A-ha were always given a raw deal by Warner & MTV in the USA while they continued huge success around the world. At a Rock In Rio festival in the late 80's A-ha sold out the venue to capacity at 198,000! A world record. George Michael & Prince also played separate nights at this same venue that year but only sold 60,000 each. The thing was, international music press were there, MTV was there... All the other artists, except for A-ha, were interviewed and promoted on US TV. It's incredible that A-ha were THE biggest deal and America pretended like they didn't exist

It's a shame... really! So popular and appreciate in South- America, Europe and the rest of the world... Here in Quebec, Canada, i remember hearing just a few songs of them on radio and in dance-club in the 80's and early 90's... At that time, i appreciated a lot the great melodic- atmospheric-dynamic songs with a unique sound and of course the outstanding voice of M. Morten Harket that i never forgot... What a surprise when i discovered their later albums on KZbin in 2019!!! I was already a fan of this talented group but since then, i became a very serious fan! 😊🎶

@@sylvieouellet212 That's great that you continue to follow and enjoy a-ha's music. I guess I shouldn't be too irritated by those events, but I do know how much it affected the band and their frame of mind. A certain frustration, depression and anger began to grow in them because of it. When they could have been celebrating such an achievement like Rio, instead they were heartbroken and felt ignored. I think anyone would feel that way, being kept out of "an important room". Eventually irritations drove them to break up following the "Memorial Beach" album. Morten recalls this album as "very dark times". Luckily an invite from the Nobel Peace Prize concert in 98 drew them back together and it appears that they appreciate the world still loves them. Obviously the story will be more complicated than how I've put it, but you can see how irritations like this could cause bad blood even among the best of friends 💗

@@fabienneclavier5984 a-ha a toujours été un excellent groupe, malheureusement certains titres un peu gnangan ainsi que leur look de poster boys les ont desservis. Ils ont vite été catalogués de boys band pour midinettes et n'ont jamais vraiment réussi à se débarrasser de cette étiquette. Je les suis depuis leurs débuts, je les ai vus deux fois en live, et je sais ce qu'ils valent. Et je me rappelle très bien à quel point je me faisais pourrir par tout le monde, et encore maintenant, quand je dis que je les aime toujours. Le grand public n'a retenu d'eux que "Take on me" et leurs belles gueules. Au lycée, j'étais dans une section lettres et langues où nous n'étions que 2 mecs pour 30 filles. Toutes mes copines de classe étaient raides dingues de Morten et de Magne. Je me souviens d'en avoir vu plus d'une pleurer à la sortie de l'album "East of the Sun~West of the Moon". "Bouh, ils sont trop moches avec leurs cheveux longs et leur vilaine barbe. J'les aime plus, snif !". Et moi je pestais devant tant de superficialité "et la musique, bon sang ?!? C'est de loin le meilleur album qu'ils aient sorti !!!". Rien à faire, désamour immédiat d'une bonne partie de la gent féminine. J'ai vu les médias, qui se foutaient d'eux depuis des années, bien embarrassés par ce virage radical, tant au niveau du look que de la musique, plus rock, plus organique. Fort embarrassés de ne plus pouvoir dire d'eux que c'était juste un boys band sans grand talent qui jouait de la pop gentillette pour pré-adolescentes. Du coup, ils n'ont tout simplement plus parlé d'eux. "Memorial Beach" est sorti dans l'indifférence générale. Idem pour leur premier comeback fin des années 90. Quasiment personne n'en a parlé en France. Lorsque le groupe s'est à nouveau séparé et a entamé une tournée d'adieux en 2009-2010, les rares critiques françaises étaient assassines :"il parait qu'en Norvège, l'annonce de leur séparation a fait l'effet d'un séisme. En France, on se demande bien qui ça pourrait intéresser hormis quelques vieilles quadra nostalgiques de leur adolescence". Un prétendu critique rock, à propos de leur tournée "Ending on a high note" : "concert très pro, mais chansons d'un romantisme niais et qui se ressemblent toutes. Toujours se méfier quand des garçons-coiffeurs essaient de faire de la "musique". "À l'annonce de la mort de Brassens, j'ai pleuré. Pour celle de Tino Rossi, j'ai repris des moules", disait Desproges. Même topo pour a-ha. On peut même ajouter des frites".

Hello Dereck, finally subscribed! I've discovered you when you reacted to Dimash and I'm happy to see you reacting and enjoying my fave band! I've been an a-ha fan since day 1 when I was only 11. It is surely one of the most underrated band. They have wrongly been categorized as a teen pop band. To me their best songs are for most non hit singles ones as those released as singles were made to be more commercial. To me a-ha is melancholic rock, profound lyrics, strings... and I defenitely have my favorites of them : Cold as Stone (from Memorial beach album) and East of the sun (from East of the sun west of the moon album). Both songs are masterpieces to me and I would love to see you react to them although they are not singles so there's no video (unless live but I would recommend listening to the album version for a first listen). By the way I'm French and I really enjoy watching you react to our French music! But more a-ha please!

What a great reaction, to Norway's best band ever!!! 🖤🤩 Finaly a reacter who react to more a-ha songs, more than commercial song "Take On Me" from a-ha. The band have so many top-song from 1980s, 1990s, 2000s and more. Can you please react to a-ha's comeback song from 2000, song "Summer Moved On"?! a-ha was on a break from 1994 - 1998, and this song was their big comeback song true 2000s.

You should react to the solo work of Morten Harket too. 'A Kind Of Christmas Card' (1995) & 'Heaven's Not For Saints (Let It Go)' (1996)

How can you pick a favourite? This is definitely my favourite, tysm for reacting to my recommendation. You're right, it's totally eargasmic. But they still have so much stuff, you can look forward to it.. 😉

Never understand how they didn't recognise Morten on The Masked Singer. I enjoyed their Cast In Steel album from 2015.

Check out two of my faves - Out of Blue Comes Green and The Swing Of Things. Both brilliant! I Call Your Name is entirely different again. They never were just a ‘pop’ band. Unfortunately the US wrote them off too quickly. I saw them live in 1986 and again in 2020 when they finally came back to Australia.
