Song For Today - Tuesday 29th January

Morten Harket

I reached inside myself today
Thinking there’s got to be some way
To keep my troubles distant

The Sun Always Shines On TV - a-ha

How can I even begin to speak about a-ha and Morten Harket? Long time readers of the blog will know I am a HUGE Morten fan. Rather than put the expected Take On Me video here, which most people think of when they think of a-ha in the 80’s, I have put The Sun Always Shines On TV instead.
a-ha
A-ha went on to have a successful career in Norway after the rest of the world mostly forgot they existed. If you were a fan of the band it is likely you would enjoy the music of theirs that you never had a chance to hear. Have a look around on you tube, you’ll find some of their newer music. They still exist as a band today and they have a website. I also found this lovely tribute to them via their website which is in Norwegian as well as English.

    I always liked this song more than their first hit Take on me. And I had a big crush on Morten, like many other girls did back in the 80’s..
