What-Is-What? Technology questions, technology answers A-Ha Albums for song lyrics and biography.-ha Aha A-a A-h A-Ha Biographya-ha is a Norwegian pop music band. The trio, composed of Morten Harket, Paul Waaktaar-Savoy and Magne Furuholmen formed in 1983, and left Norway for London in order to make a career in the music business. The origin of the name a-ha is rumoured to have been a favorite phrase of one of the band member's pet monkey. "Take on Me", their debut single, was a hit on both sides of the Atlantic in 1985 . Sales were aided in the US by a video on MTV that mimicked the climactic scene from the Ken Russell film Altered States. The video used a sketchy animation/live action combination that tells a fantasy thriller story to the song. In spite of the single's greater popularity in the US, the album, Hunting High And Low, sold better in the UK. Critics at the time mostly dismissed the band as bubblegum pop.
a-ha's second album was Scoundrel Days (1986), and represented a move towards alternative rock. In 1987, they provided the title song for the James Bond film The Living Daylights. Stay on Thes... |
