iadoremika Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Taaaaaaaaaaaaaake oooooooooooon meee, take on me. Yes, I like the song. And the video. Here we sometimes have the countdown lists, with a theme. Say Best Dance Videos, Best Guitar Solos etc etc (I just made those up, but you get the point ). For the countdowns that are like Best Music Videos from the 80s, Take On Me is always near the top spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it would have won any awards for this version Very bad quality ... and very rare ... I've only ever seen it on YT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clare Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) (laughs to herself) I've just found this thread. No posts since 2009. Wow!! I'm having a craze where I'm going back in time. I was listening to A-ha the other week and I remember them so well. The lead singer Morten Harket still sounds as lovely as he did in the 80's Edited July 31, 2012 by Clare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clare Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I've just bought Morten Harket's CD Wild seed. It's fantastic. Do you know if he has a fan club? Send us a link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have that album ... it is good ... I don't know if he has a fanclub - it's not something I've ever looked up ... I think he has at least another two solo albums in english and another two in norwegian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
