A-Ha is a Norwegian new wave band that was most popular in the UK and the USA during the 1980s, but continued to be globally successful in the 1990s and 2000s. The trio, composed of lead vocalist Morten Harket, guitarist Paul Waaktaar-Savoyand keyboardist Magne Furuholmen, formed in 1983 and left Norwayfor London in order to make a career in the music business. The origin of the name a-ha comes from the lyric of an early song. After checking dictionaries in several languages, they found out that 'a-ha' was an international way of expressing recognition, with positive connotations. It was short, a-ha was easy to say and somewhat unusual.

Lamb To The Slaughter Lyrics
A-Ha
(mange furuholmen)
I went down to the water
Like a lamb to the slaughter
Didnt know what was waiting for me there
Nobody warned me
Nobody told me
My excuse is I wasnt prepared
I drank deep from the river
And sealed up my fate
I should have seen the trap, baby
Before it was too late
We go down
We go down
We go down, its the only way out
Who is this fool
Who believed all the stories
I wish I could say
Its not me
You polluted my head
With all the things you said
I became what you wanted to see
All of these years
Ive built up this hate
I had my chance coming
But now its too late
We go down
We go down
We go down, its the only way out
