One-HIT WOnders !

Review Score: (4/10)
A-HA was a one-hit wonder, at least in the USA, where only "TAKE ON ME" received an absurd amount of MTV and radio display, to the point of becoming unbearable to ever listen again!!

In Europe, mainly int he U.K, thing were a little different, A-Ha being able to resist for more than five studio albums. BUt that was never a band to be taken seriusly. Other than the very good vocals, the ultra-pop-synth music is lifeless, industrial and toally electronic. That's why they succumbed.
