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.

Rolling Thunder Lyrics
A-Ha
(pal waaktaar/mags)
Its the weight below us
And our fate before us
Like a rolling thunder
Rolling up from under
Dont ever leave this way
I know its getting harder, but hey
If your world should crumble, yeah
And the rain gets in
Running through your skin
Soaking you outside in
The rain ... see it falling
But I dont know how long it will be
Until the storms over
But Ill wait
I will
Like the years of silence
To the growing violence
Like a rolling thunder
Rolling up from under
Dont ever leave me this way
Wait a little longer, yeah, stay
Through all the night I tumble, yeah
When the rain comes in
I will shed my skin
Losing it from within
See the rain ... its falling
But I wont be leaving your side
Until all is over
Ill wait
I will
So many lifetimes youve been waiting for it
All through the good times when you tried to ignore it
You hesitate
Its come too late
You hear the sound
Of when wheels engage
When the rain comes in
I will shed my skin
Losing it from within
