    Ahh! The summer of 1985!!! Great year, great people, great times, great country, different world, different USA, different people, different times, was a much simply time, seems magical now in 2022. No cellphones glued to people's heads. Just a Sony Walkman was king. Never to return but in our pipe dreams. Glad I lived it!

    Hermosa canción Take On Me que inmortalizó en los maravillosos años 80 el gran cantante y vocalista de la famosa Banda a-ha Morten Harket, yo diría una de las mejores canciones del mundo, y gracias al famoso animador Dick Clark en el año 85 los llevo a su programa Américan Bandstand para deleite del mundo Dick Clark llevaba toda la alegría a la jente

    Personally I think this is one of the most memorable and great atmospheric songs of the last 50 years. Few songs just stole the spotlight and the imagination of people like this one, and their music video is the Greatest Music Video in History.

    When he sings 'I'll be gone' @ 3:03 without going falsetto proves what a range Morten Harket has. Not sure if he still sings this bit live nowadays as he seems to stick to the falsetto part. On the whole just a brilliant band.

    Why does everyone complain about lip-syncing? They did it all the rock/pop shows. Ab, shindig, hullabaloo, shiveree, hollywood a go-go, top of the pops,shebang where the action is, soul train, etc. Get a life people! I saw them on ab too. 1983: new wave, bananarama, wham uk, bow wow wow, the thompson twins, the flirts, the alarm, abc. By the way, bananarama: the ultimate collection,get it! Also, no recounts!!!!

    • @cphdotdk
      @cphdotdk Před 8 lety +8

      do you guys seriously mean that Mags is more handsome?
      Not judging or anything, just curious - and not really asking about "individual taste", but rather universal - Morten has the "ideal" face, that even guys will agree is absolutely beautiful.
      Morten is somehow disqualified from the start, since that face is so unique - Mags is definitely a handsome man, but that can be said about many.

    • @a-hafangirl
      @a-hafangirl Před 8 lety +3

      Morten is a gorgeous man, no doubt about that, but I have just always been more attracted to Mags. I have a very soft spot for men with naturally curly blond hair and blue eyes. He also has a great sense of humor.

    • @riemannx1
      @riemannx1 Před 4 lety +3

      Mags was a very handsome guy for sure and this is a personal preference but please it is pure objectivity by looking at Harket's face that he was unique. The most beautiful male face ever. No model, no actor, no singer still now can compete with that sculpture. A kind of beauty that competed with the prettiest women. A mannequin brought to life.
