A-ha 30+ years on.

The lads turned their back's on fame and fortune....at a time they could have ruled the charts worldwide.

One of their most famous was "The Sun Always Shines On TV"

Today I found this.......love it.

They were a very big band for quite a few years all over the world to be fair on them, Tpin. Thing is, too often we only judge music by the UK charts.

Yep, good band. I believe they're still making "records".

Yes they were big but, imho had much more to give and could've been massive.

Yep they're toiuring again and recording.

I agree.

Quite impressed.

The intimacy of these performances, to small audiences, where the performers are stripped down to basics(almost)shows their true talents, good or bad.

I liked that track as well.
Also, "Take on me" - brilliant!

And they accomplished what most don't....theme tune to a Bond film.

The Living Daylights, imho, is one of the better attempts.

From the same appearance at the BBC....again, a cracking rendition.
