A-ha

Sometimes even magic needs a little extra push: It took a-ha, the Norwegian giants of Pop, three attempts to launch their first single „Take On Me“ to full effect. Having sold merely 300 units in 1984 it was 1985 that finally saw the tunesmithery of Pål Waaktaar-Savoy and Magne ”Mags” Furuholmen, enframing the trademark soaring voice of Morten Harket, enchant millions. And take them on the audience did. a-ha in return gave them perfect pop gems like “The Sun Always Shines On TV“, “Hunting High And Low“ or the James Bond title track “The Living Daylights“. By the turn of the decade world dominance was well within reach. At the height of their power a-ha broke a record for live concerts, playing a 195.000 strong crowd in the Estadio do Maracanã of Rio de Janiero in 1991.

Their following album however was to be the last for quite a while. After “Memorial Beach” in 1993 a-ha actually ceased to be — only to come back with a vengeance. In 2000 their album „Minor Earth Major Sky“ topped the charts in Germany, Norway and Estonia, entering the top positions in many other countries. a-ha managed to hit their stride again with impressive ease. Playing a sold out Royal Albert Hall in 2002, participating in Bob Geldof’s Live 8 in 2005. a-ha produced three more albums and engaged in heavy touring supporting them.

„Foot of the Mountain“, released in 2009, is to be their final album, though. Topping and ending their career as a-ha with a worldwide tour Pål Waaktaar-Savoy, Magne Furuholmen and Morten Harket will call it day in on December 4 in 2010, after they will have played the Spektrum-Arena in Oslo. Then again: you never know what magic will ensue.
