  • old times in this song :(

  • Forever Young

  • I cry

  • Thank god for for this great music band! wish god bless them all!

    from Boa Vista-Roraima-Brasil

  • i was a great aha fan in the 80s but was good back then.. still love his old music now.. he has a good voice but not good music today

  • Ese video me da mucha nostalgia, ver las mariposas evocándolos a uds. ahora que cada uno emprende su vuelo, cada cual su propio camino snif, snif.... Éxitos para cada uno de uds.

  • I cry everytime i see this video ..... thank you a-ha for every song since 1984. will miss you.ll badly

  • Morten simpre perfecto!!

  • In my "adopted" hometown of Vicenza, there's this place called Monte Berico. It has this spot that overlooks the town; and the last time I was there, I was thinking of this song. I say this because I practically grew up in Vicenza, and looking over it while knowing that I will have some day leave it with out a reason to stay. But Vicenza will always have a special spot in my book, and when I leave, it will be like I am going through the chorus.

  • He realises half way through he dosent need to sing in the mike to make a noise, hes learnt to sing without opening his mouth.

  • wczoraj dzisiaj i jutro są wspaniali

  • I rank this song among the top 5 A-ha songs ever.

  • @bardo0007 WHAT? =0

  • 17 people doesnt like butterflies.

  • Great A-ha!

  • Why does it have only 469k view? It's beautiful song but no all know it :/

  • This song is a more then great exit for such an extraordinary band that only Morten, Magne, and Pal could pull off. Thanks for everything guys. You are greatly missed by many all over the place.

  • @iammontecristo It's not at all a great exit. It's okey, but not a great song.

  • Un magnifico punto final a una carrera de exito

  • This is MUSIC! at its best! Better than the rubbish around atm. Don't they all look old? Guess we all do?

  • Never fails to make me bawl like a baby. My childhood died the day they called it quits.

  • We need more view's of this amazing song. So come on folk's. let's spread the gospel according to a-ha, you just have to, if you love this amazing band. They may be no more, but let's all keep their memory alive, this is a brilliant swansong from the boy's, so let us do it justice, and just click on this video. In fairness, this track sound's as fresh as any of their early stuff, it's right up there with the very best that they've given us, then again. everything they do,(did) was always great.

  • On a fatefull Friday morning in late Spring/ early Summer 2010, I was introduced to and became a die hard a-ha fan. Ever since then, I have made up for lost time, listened to their music and got their CDs. Thanks for the music Morten, Magne, and Paul. Your music got me through some tough/ emotional moments.

  • oh there is still good music, but still it came from an artist from the 80's. yeah!!

  • his voice still sounds amazing!

  • Bring back the band...we all loved them and they had SUCH great music. Thumbs up on this comment if you think so guys.

  • группа на все времена!

  • So long, thanks for the music!

  • Amazing......love it!!!

  • WTF only 450.000 views?

    are you kidding me?

    

  • Voz maravilhosa! Unica! Muita saude a todos!

  • Adoro esta banda, uma das melhores da decada de 80. show de bola.

  • A-ha The best band all the time!

  • defently a worthy song to end the best band ever created, a-ha makes me proud to be norwegian

  • Comment removed

  • A-ha is without a doubt a greatly under appreciated band. His music has influenced pop culture in the last 30 day. With this song close in a very high note an amazing career. The music, the lyrics, the voice, the meaning.... A-ha forever...!

  • Amazing!

    

  • Величайшая группа.

  • A-Ha is a beautiful scar in my life, that reminds me good and bad moments of my youth. I'm glad to say I lived those 80's days. Songs and lyrics which defined a generation. A-Ha forever!

  • Because of Morten i studied music and became a singer,because of A-ha i'm writing music!!!After Living a Boy's Adventure Tale,my life would never be the same again.....

  • .... me hace recordarte....es inevitable! :(

  • It's amazing the idea to use only synthesizer like they begun on 80's. The start of the song it's a authentic 80's style. A-ha changed his music over the years, like happen with all musicians, but the quality is the same or better. Bono Vox said one time that A-ha is the most creative band that he knows

  • one of the best songs for sure...very moving and authentic. (could have used a real drummer though)

  • wow theyre old

  • Love it!

  • wow i seen them in the 80s holy crap he looks like charlie sheen

  • @TheDudeo261 maybe after the coke night...he looks so plastic...but he sings like a god :X

  • Я надеюсь, что это не последняя их песня. Обожаю эту группу, могу слушать бесконечно...

  • but now i see how young they still look, you mean this guys are in their 50s, they look like they are in their 40s

  • And people say there's no good music today...

  • @Xinn2000 i think their is no good music unless the music came from an era with good music hence DM A-Ha Gary Numan NIN Nirvana etc. and 4 outta five of those still around so no new bands are great but old ones do still produce great material i hate the new music but i love the old ones that actually cared about production and using their voice not autotune.

  • @ChildIncomplete i take dat back 3 outta five those bands around i forgot a-ha retired in 2010.

  • @ChildIncomplete A-ha Rearly ever used auto-tune. you can listen to 1 of there song ANNYONE you want and then find a live version of it on YouTube and it will sound nearly 100% identical to the studio version of the song

  • @MrPlaystationboy exactly which is how it should be no autotune pure beauty of natural voice. 

  • @MrPlaystationboy not rarely,the true is that they've never used it!

  • @Xinn2000

    They are not part of "today",they are part of 1980's...when people say "today", they mean shite like justin bieber, black eyed peas, and katy perry...

    a-ha is way out of their leagues.

  • @Xinn2000

    *they are waaaay out of a-ha's league...

  • I think at least somewhere between 100 and 200 of the views are mine. I love this song, and it's one of the main reasons I got the 25 album to begin with.

  • Believe good luck will come to you

  • epic

  • forever s2

  • LET'S TALK ABOUT MAGIE.....:-)

  • Perfect last song for them!

  • :D

  • Not a lot guys can pull off what Pal is wearing...again...fashion, the looks, awesome writings and the best talent ever...from the beginning til the end...will always be my #1 band! =) Thanks guys for helping me at an awkward stage in my life as I was growing up..my teenage years..lol! =0}

  • He's got the voice of a dubstep angel! even though this is pop

  • farewell a-ha

    fly away and high like a butterfly

  • a-ha forever

  • TOUJOURS AUSSI CLASSE!...prenez en de la graine! autres générations de" POIL A GRATTER"..;ou pas...je m'en tape!

  • TOUJOURS AUSSI BON! VOUS M AVEZ MANQUE LES GARS!...:-)

  • Im always starting to cry listening to this :(, its so beautiful, full of meaning and its making you stop thinking about all your problems.

    

  • This video make me cry every time

  • Dear a-ha...I will never forget about you and I will love you till the end of my life!!!

    I am proud that I did the translation of the lyrics of this song for Japanese release.

  • Yey, they use a G# guitar! Best short scale guitar ever (got a black one).

  • This video is one big flashback...and it's been a certainly beautiful ride...if only that ride was forever.

    But there's never a forever thing is there, Morten?

  • *wish

  • This video is one big flashback...and it's been a certainly beautiful ride...which it was neverending.

  • This song always makes me happy. Heck, it can even get me to stop crying.

  • feliz por ter vivido e acompanhado o a-ha desde os meus 11 anos de idade, minhas melhores lembranças da minha infancia era de ouvir a-ha em meados de 1986 nos radios.

  • Música linda

  • Wow.  This song is awesome!

  • he aged nicely. not in a wierd way

  • all about take me on

    

  • always will get me on my knees thinking of the days that me and them were just young enough to do everything ..

  • a-ha

  • Great song with great band.:)

  • @Bxfineztmatt18 I wouldnt be too bothered about the likes of "Hannah Montana" or "Justin Bieber". They might have more hits than a-ha, but then again, ask yourself the question. Will they still be around in 25 years?. I dont think so , in fact Id nearly bet my house on it. Kids love them, thats the only reason for their popularity. More luck to them. We should all just be grateful that we had a-ha for all of those 25 years of musical genius. I certainly feel so lucky to have grown to love a-ha

  • I love this song . . the words, the music, the feeling that I get listening to it, especially knowing that this was their last video together as a group, makes me sad but happy that I did buy Hunting High and Low otherwise I would not have been given to opportunity to enjoy the greatest band of my generation. We were fortunate that Pal and Magne realized that Morten was their missing key to greatness, and the rest as they say is history. Thank you A-ha, from the bottom of my heart . . thank you

  • @LOVEandROCKETSfan Well said! =)

  • I'm so annoyed that this video has under half a million views.. while Hannah Slutana and Justin Queerber have over 100 million. People cant recognize good music for shit any more. Such a shame. Thumbs up if you agree with me.

  • @Bxfineztmatt18 what is your point?

    Maybe most of the a-ha fans got the CD's or the LP's ?

    What does it matter who's got the most views?

    What matter's is what you Think of the artist. not depending on the number of video views

  • This and Huntung High and Low are their best songs, in my opinion. Only this one is like the other side of the coin, written by really grown up men.

  • This is the absolute peak of pop music.

  • Great montage of old video clips. A-ha was my brothers favourite band in the 80s.

  • They Went Out With a bang and I personally believe this is their best, most well written, and most beautiful songs. Thank you for many years of beautiful music.

  • a-ha is one of the reasons I want to go to Norway. And I love their music. Thanks for everything, Morten, Magne, and Paul.

  • they remain one of the greatest bands ever !

  • Just love the pensive thoughts, the wry smiles and the nods of acknowledgement that this is an end of an era. A history of A-ha in one song. Il'll certainly be following their individual careers. Roll on March when Morten releases his album!!!!!

  • Thanks for sharing I love it!!!

  • Pains me to say it, but the writing was always on the wall with a-ha. If the rumours are right about tensions amongst the three lads, then it was inevitable they were always going to go their separate ways. Such a shame, because in my book they were just finding their original sound all over again with the release of "Foot Of The Mountain. In hindsight though theyre not alone on this, it happens with a lot of bands, famous or otherwise. Its life, but they obviously soldiered on. Such a pity.

  • @medazaman I agree. A lot of the stuff they did in the early days was forced upon them and commerialised. Not to say it wasn't good-they pulled it off. Starting from East of the Sun... they gradually found themselves. Memorial Beach was a fantastic album and my favourite so far. Minor Earth also good-Summer moved on is fantastic. Lifelines not their best. Analogue better and I agree Foot of the Mountain was taking them to a new level. Shame its come to an end but thankyou for the music!

  • i am sad,i live in america and i hear nothing beautiful like this,A-ha is truly a one of kind band.i hope there legacy lives on forever.

  • very nice band and beautiful ending song for this band, sad they dont sing anymore

  • Take on me :)

  • too bad they returned to their natural way of making music and suddenly split

  • miss you T__T

  • Butterflies will return. The last hurrah it not about the best team on light

    

  • Thanks for all years. I am assured that you will return

    RF

  • los amo!!!!!!!!!!! a-ha..porque tenían q hacer este video!!!!

    ..me emocionó demasiado!!!!..y ellos cuando se abrazan...aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh­hhh!!!!! morí!!!!!! los amaré siempre.

  • Thanks, A-ha, for those 25 years of music for the soul. And this song is great too. :)

  • @aha The last one... Okayz *Hurra* btw I come from Norway 2 e.e ~~Bergen~~ Yaay...

  • que pena cara! essa banda é uma das melhores bandas dos anos 80's!!

    essa banda devia tocar na rádio! bem... pelo menos aqui no Brasil!

    nao sei em quanto aos outros países!

  • j'adooooooooore cette chanson et le chanteur du groupe a une voix fantastique

    merce steve pour ce partage

    belle journée à toi

  • I am coming from the states. I kept a-ha dear to my heart ever since their breakthrough with Take On Me. I hate there wasn't more like me over here. A-ha was an awesome group. And I absolutely loved this song when I first heard it on their 25 cd. And now that I have seen this video, I love it even more. The ending was so sad in a way for me, but I wouldn't have changed a thing about it. And I do believe Morten has gotten sexier with age. Wahooo. Long live a-ha, in our hearts and on youtube!!!!!

  • @fatbaby73 Hello! I am so glad I am not the only American who's a fan of theirs! This song is what led me to buy their 25 album!

  • @iammontecristo that's great to know. I have loved a-ha ever since I was 12, and got their tape Hunting High and Low (one of the first tapes that I bought on my own) I loved it, and tried desperately to keep up with them, but as you know over here in the US after their first few albums it was a lost cause. All I can say is Thank God for Amazon. I absolutely love this song, and the cd is awesome and amazing. Can't wait to get more of their stuff.

  • @fatbaby73 so there with ya! I really wish they were more of hit in the US - I was also thinkin Morten was become hotter as he aged...I'm actually dating a 50 yr old and I love my BF but Morten looks younger for sure =} we definitely missed out on a very talented band...so instead we have Justin Bieber who came from you-tube...no offense to the ones who like him...but this band has been my top notch band from the beginning and will always be ~

  • Morten Harket solo album on it's way. Will be released in march 2012 I think ...

  • The other day, I was feeling moody for no apparent reason, so I turned this song on, and I snapped right out of it. Thanks aha, for creating music that gets me out of feeling blue.

  • Just like alphaville, they have been making music for so long but they are still just as good as they were back in the day.

  • Musica de verdade

  • Amo muito A-ha. Da de Mil a zero nas bandas de hoje

  • love you! always! 

  • @ YouTellytuber . Yes the video was directed by Steven Barron, so you could say that he was with them at the start of their careers with "Take on me" right through to the very end with this lasting number, their "last hurrah" and only fittingly so.

  • GREAT GROUP I WISH THAT THEY COME TO ISRAEL

    

  • quem é brasileiro e gota de a-ha da um joinha ae!!!!!

  • Love from Canada!

  • I really miss their music and i mostly miss my excitement for their up coming releases. Nothing like a-ha.

  • we love u guys... from turkey

  • Apos de muitos anos ai esta

  • These three guys are awesome, from the beginning to the end of the band's journey. This music video is meant to transcend the band to another level of existence. Does anyone know that this video is directed by Steven Barron, the very same guy who directed the band's breakthrough music video "Take On Me"?

  • a-ha's songs won't get old, and I find them to fit any mood (such as getting me out a "feeling blue" moment). Thanks for everything, Morten, Magne, and Paul. Your music is timeless.

  • i still have all the cds!

  • som na tomto vyrastal...take on me...super norska skupina!

  • ...škoda...

  • la grande classe

  • Darling, are made up with this last song the 25 best years of my life ... I love you always same as my memories ......

  • your music can stop the time. thanks a-ha!

  • It is so sad, I love morten, I love a-ha.... I cried when I saw this video... but is so beautiful

  • beautiful voice, lyrics, song in general. all i heard so far leaves me believing Aha had such insight/ wisdom / empathy at such a young age . they are wonderful!!!

  • I TOTALLY LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH! This song makes me cry.. Don't know why.. :c

    - Love from Turkey! <3

  • a-ha... don't fly away!!!

  • only 333.205 views ?

    jony la gente esta muy loca ..WTF ?!!

  • One of a-ha's best songs. Often times, I find myself humming it no matter what mood I am in.

  • Its The End.

    Thank you A-ha for 25 years with classical pop songs.

    Especially Paal Waaktar , one of the greatest composers . Please dont stop making music.

  • hello from Slovakia i lile A-HA very much!

  • o que dizer? maravilhosamente emocionante,é a song que fecha praticamente a tampa de todas as belas canções feitas no decorrer dessas décadas por esses incríveis artístas, da muita saudades,me sinto realizado em poder ter tido o privilégio de ver o último show deles aqui no Brasil,é uma coisa que sempre ficará eternamente em minha mente assim como as belas canções deles. Sem dúvida uma das melhores bandas do mundo da música inquestionavelmente!

  • Please don´t leave the rock-pop alone, you are the best band representative of the most exquisite music of the world. you're my heroes. I'm a mexican who loves your music a lot...
