Group Members Morten Harket (vocals), Magne Furuholmen (keyboards), Paal Waaktaar (bass, guitar, piano)
Jive 55 Favourite Songs Hunting High And Low, The Sun Always Shines On TV (from 'Hunting High And Low', 1985)
What Are They Up To? A new album called 'Lifelines' was released in April 2002 and the first single, 'Forever Not Yours', reached #1 in 7 countries. They are still touring Europe regularly, remaining very popular in Germany and ubiquitous in Norway of course. A-Ha did split from 1994-2000, and Paul Waaktaar started a separate band, Savoy, which remains popular in Norway and is releasing a new album in 2004. Morten Harket releases irregular solo albums and Magne dedicates himself almost exclusively to painting and artistic collaborations.
