I remember seeing the "Velvet" video before...singing corpses are hard to forget!
...but I'm realizing I haven't heard many of A-ha's songs, and this will be a good opportunity for me to do so.
The only A-ha song that I can remember off the top of my head is
"Take on Me," of course, which I liked since I first heard it on the radio back in the '80s, although I don't think I saw the video until a couple years ago.
My favorite moment in the music begins with the line, "Oh the things that you say," just after 2:30, up through "You're all the things I've got to remember," because it sounds so plaintive with yearning. In case someone hasn't heard that song, here it is:
