Such a powerful post! I LOVED this song and video in the 80s, right down to the big hair, even dreamed of meeting a-ha when I lived in Oslo for a year (spoiler alert: it did not happen). I had never watched it up close like this. Nice memory jog, Beth. Thank you for the deep dive!
Thank you, Amie! It's such a fun song - all these years later!
Sad that you didn't run into them in Oslo...I'm hoping to go to the cafe from the video (as it turns out, it's not that far from where I live in London!). I'll let you know if I get sucked into a black and white comic book world - and if Morten ends up in my house...
