TOP 10 A-ha SONGS

Easily one of the Most Underrated and Overlooked Bands of the last 20 Years, at least in the USA. They are well respected elsewhere in the world and have had tremendous success, so lets some lists, then I will post mine.

My top 10:
1. Take On Me
2. ...
No offense, I looked into them after a friend said how good they were and I wasn't entirely impressed.
Personally . I think we are all Boring with No Lives cause all we do is talk about Prince,Criticize and Gossip. I need a Horny Man is what I Need and probably so do most of yas. We are Sexually Frustrated what we R... Amen..!!! - zelaire

A-ha continued to make albums and hits in Europe, but failed to make a dent beyond "Take on me" in the U.S.

And also just a footnote on AHA, i release alot of people dont realize them, but honestly if you like ColdPlay there is no reason to try any of AHA's last 4 cds, and epecially there latest CD which is a double Live CD which sound wise is one of the best recorded live cds i have ever heard to date. Another Note, AHA's last CD to actually be distributed in america over the WARNER label, not imported, was 1993's MEMORIAL BEACH which was co-produced by DAVID Z, however the TRACKS that he did were to poppy-prince like, all that jangly KISS riff sound, not a good mix for a band that is into acoustic sounds now.
