A-ha/YMMV


 * Award Snub: The video for "Take On Me" is one of the most awarded videos at the VM As with 8 Moonmen. However, it did not won Video of the Year as the jury picked Dire Straits' "Money for Nothing" (an equally good video, but one that has slightly aged and not as iconic).
 * Crowning Music of Awesome:
 * Take on me and The Living Daylights are among their most recognized songs.
 * Summer Moved On shows well how Morten Harket can hold a single note for 23 seconds nonstop.
 * Ear Worm: A vast majority of their songs will get lodged in your head, especially "Take On Me".
 * Face of the Band: Lead singer Morten Harket is famous for both his powerful voice and his great looks. He even was offered a small role in The Living Daylights but rejected it because he thought they only wanted him to pose and look pretty.
 * Narm:
 * The rather Purple Prose-y and cheesy lyrics of Stay on these roads.
 * Also, Morten should've really left the Big No out of the first chorus in Manhattan Skyline.
 * Nightmare Fuel:
 * The lyrics of Scoundrel Days, which describe a man's broken psyche as he cuts his wrists open and runs around his town before throwing himself off a cliff.
 * The video for Velvet, in which the three band members are killed off.
 * Tear Jerker:
 * Manhattan Skyline, if you ignore the borderline narmy Big No that Morten lets out in the first chorus.
 * Slender Frame, which to this tropette is one of the saddest break-up songs ever.
 * The video for The sun always shines on TV, )
