That lead singer, Morten Harket, holds the Guinness world record for holding a note the longest,he is not just a singer, he's a vocal expert. The end of Summer moved on, 20.2 seconds. PS: It's one of the most played songs in the world and it is said to be played on a radio station in the US every minute, so it's weird how people haven't heard it in the US.

Just pronounce it A-Ha, however it comes out it's right, because everybody pronounced it their own way back then. I was in college when this came out, and I remember how cool and innovative this video was back in the day. The song was first released in their home country of Norway in 1984, then was re-released with this new video in the USA about a year later and became a massive world-wide hit. A couple of years later, these guys ended up recording the next James Bond movie theme at the time, The Living Daylights, another good song. After their initial big success here, they kinda faded from the scene in America, but remained a big success in Europe until into the 21st century.

Thank you for your reaction! Morten Harket, the lead singer of A-Ha holds two records among male singers, a vocal range up to five octaves and singing one single note for 20,2 seconds (in the song called "Summer Moved On"). The band still exists and has released a lot of albums and great songs since the time Take On Me became a huge hit. It would be cool if you reacted to other A-Ha songs..

Then she retrieves to wadded up comic strip from the waist basket, takes it home and the comic character pushes into her house to join her. The VIDEO is what made this a hit record.

One of the few reactors to be more excited about the "New Wave" music than the video, lol. These guys are Norwegian. I guess they were already really popular there before they made this, which became a huge hit in the US thanks to the super interesting video.

@herrbonk3635 4 года назад

Was this new wave? I associate that with groups like The Police and Blondie or even Sparks (despite being an older band). I believe people called this lots of names, at least here in Sweden. Fjortispop ("fourteens-pop"), tjejpop ("girls-pop"), or just pop, or synth-pop.

@DragonflyenAmber 4 года назад

They weren't new wave, they were pop music. They had no albums in Norway prior to the release of this one.

@healthserve 3 года назад

@@herrbonk3635 This is synth-pop. They kept using synths for most (though not all) of their career, certainly their guitarist/ principal songwriter plays a MEAN guitar,, but their music quickly matured to the point where "pop" just generally didn't cover all the types of music they produced. I think that's where the New Wave label came from, but they've done some songs I think are straight up rock, too. They're kind of hard to peg.

So nice to see your reaction to a song I heard back at the release in 1985, been a loyal a-ha fan since! Glad to you like it! "Take on me" by Norwegian a-ha (pronounced just as your regular "a-ha!" in surprise or revelation) was released in 1985 on the third attempt to release it. It was released in a genius planning campaign by Warner Bros, first they wallpapered the entire inner city of New York and also London with giant posters of the boys, published the video and waited for the audience to discover the now classic and groundbreaking video by Steve Barron which it did quite quickly and then, after a month of publishing the video, released the single - it almost went directly to Billboard no 1. It reached 1 billion views here on YT recently! I have seen them live several times, lead singer Morten Harket still has his voice intact, well mostly anyway!

As young girl I couldn't wait to get home, turn on MTV and wait for this video, I was mesmerized with the video,one of the first storytelling videos and in love with the song

This first album definitely had some catchy pop tunes on it, this song was a big hit. I really liked the second album "Scoundrel Days", it was more of a new wave / alternative album with more instruments added.

Next time, WATCH THE VIDEO while you are listening to the song! It's one of the BEST music videos ever made! I was going nuts seeing you closing your eyes during it & just listening to the music -- which is great, BUT you need to see the whole video and how it all meshes together!!!

@flubblert 4 года назад

Ditto! One of the few instances where the video is as good or better than the song. Groundbreaking.

@MRoyClark 4 года назад

Yeah, I totally agree. If I was in the room, I'd have been on his case to watch the video, too. I've gotta say, though. While the video has aged remarkably well, there's just no way someone seeing it for the first time in 2020 would be as impressed as we were in 1985. There was absolutely nothing like it at the time. These days, a clever freshman in their first year of animation school could make this on an iPad. Things change.

I know right? Little does he know that this video took months to complete due to all the drawings that had to be done and made to look like they were moving.. In fact, this song and video was so great, that it won MTV's "Video of The Year" Award for 1985!

I rarely listen to pop music but this song is just one of the best ever written.

@1TonyNash 4 года назад

It was a big hit in '85 Jayvee, great reaction! Another big hit of theirs was 'The Sun Always Shines On TV' - it was massive in the clubs.

@walshaw2 4 года назад

The girl in the video was his girlfriend. Another great song by AHA is "The Sun Always shines on TV."

@dave0915 4 года назад

Agree about that song. Other than this being a great song and music video, a-ha made many more albums, but quit releasing singles in the U.S. "Dark Is The Night For All" is another one of my favorites.

Now you know how I felt when I was 8 and this song broke. And how me and countless others felt when hundreds of great songs came out in the awesome 80’s. Seriously miss those years, it was a lot of fun and we didn’t have cell phones and the internet stealing our childhoods.

@billmorris8358 2 года назад

This song was released in 1985! The Singer was Morten Harksen,. The best best falsetto in pop! The band were from Norway!

@that70sgirl17 3 года назад

I've heard this song about a million times and never realised how sweet it was until I saw them perform it in a slowed down and stripped back way a few years back. Find that version and check it out Jayvee!

I never ever - ever never never will get bored with this song! I've loved it since 1985 and today it still sounds new. Every time I listen to their music (huge catalogue BTW!!) I sort of fall in love ... 😍. A-ha u-huh!!

@bensweiss 19 дней назад

Love how they sync the music to certain events in the video. Especially the keyboard and drums coinciding with the movement of the motorcyclist villains and the drums banging ending with her back in the cafe. And the motorcycles, racing , and style always reminded me of the 1930's and 40's.

@rachelbarber8814 3 года назад

Cracking bit of pop history. Morten Harkett, lead singer of A-ha was a big fan of the Everly Brothers as I am. I actually saw him coming out of their gig at the Royal Albert Hall in London in the late 80s. Didn’t have the presence of mind to rush for his autograph. Still kick myself for that.

@jeannebrady2600 3 года назад

I love the fact that your analysis was focused on the song. The video is one of the most iconic of MTV's heyday, but that's a separate thing from the song itself. I've seen other commentaries that focused on the video and didn't really listen to the song.
