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.

A-Ha
(Magne Furuholmen / Paul Waaktaar)
I can't see me in this empty place
Just another lonely face
I can't see me here in outer space
It's so hard to leave a trace
And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
It's a
Minor Earth Major Sky
I can't see me in this lonely town
Not a friendly face around
Can you hear me when I speak out loud
Hear my voice above the crowd
And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
It's a
Minor Earth Major Sky
But I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
It's a
Minor Earth Major Sky
