"Take on me  "
Obviously a pop classic but.... Listen to (Living a boy's adventure tale) it's one of those most would think they might pull off at karaoke, until the end bit. Wow, no chance!!  |

"Axle rose."
Mmmm. He did cover for acdc on tour and did a stellar job of Thunder Struck. But nah, not got the diversity of vocal gymnastics Morten has. |

"I thought this was an Alan Partridge thread...
Very... disappointed...

No, Morten doesn't randomly kick people in bollocks. |

He has one of the top 10 vocal ranges on the planet. Vocal gymnastics can be learned ranges are inherent gifts. |

Andrea Bocelli pisses on both of them. I stood about 6ft from him warming up backstage and felt the sound waves hit my chest like a cricket bat...almost literally blew me away  |

Agreed but I'm talking the overall expressiveness of a non classically trained pop singer whose voice gives busegumps in delivery.

"Stay on these roads is one of A-ha's lesser known tunes but OMG what a vocal performance by Morten, moves you to almost tears when he hits the big notes. Massive goosebumps "
My brothers favourite. |

"Hunting Hugh and Low is actually my favourite.
Every time I hear it I get goosebumps (if you know the song, you know exactly when)"
Always though that would have better suited a Bond Song than living daylights. Which was utter shit. |

I'd say Bruce Dickenson, but he is way above Morten Harket's league "
Sorry, I just coughed up my chilli. No! Maiden are quality yes, but Bruce ain't no Morten. No, no. |

So. A-ha.
It's very easy to shrug them off as another 80s boy band. Couple of catchy hits and nothing else.
But they were so much more. If Morten wasn't so incredibly good looking, people might have listened a bit more. As it was, they were dismissed as nothing more than some good looking lads put together for the MTV generation.
Imagine writing "The Sun Always Shines on TV" and it NOT being your most famous song? Imagine having "Hunting High And Low" in your repertoire and people hardly mentioning it? Imagine having the temerity to do a Bond song and wiping the floor with those that had tried before?
If A-ha had been around in any other decade than the 80s, the music press would have absolutely lapped them up. As it was, they were dismissed as one hit wonders and pretty boys.
But I don't care. This makes them even more special.
Well done OP for highlighting this.
And megalolz at whoever said Justin Hawkins  |

This has just inspired me to listen to them today. I never got into them past the two songs I know. Sun always shines and take on me.
Thanks, you sold them to me. |

Matt Bellamy (Muse) has THE most incredible range.
Personally, on Aha, I liked Scoundrel Days as its that tricky "2nd album" and it's much more mature and assured. "I've been losing you", "manhatten skyline" ...and for pop you have cry wolf and weight of the wind.... |
