It was released only as a single, which is now rare and, if you can find a copy, usually very expensive. I have it on cassette. This Eurovision live version is probable even better.
Sorry, posted that before I read Geordie's comment. I've never heard of the album Merciful Waters, and have been unable to find it online: even Wikipedia evidently has no mention of it.
It was a single only, never on an album as SnowSunbather stated. I have the single and yes it is very rare, very hard to find. I am confussed by geordie35 comment.. "Merciful Waters" was never a Morten Harket song or album that I am aware of. If I am wrong I apologize. But, I have Merciful Waters & Morten sang on that beautiful song, but the song belongs to Jan Bang another Norwegian. Morten sang on a couple of Bang's songs. By the way, Morten's song won on the Eurovision show & he was the host.
@norskygirl Really? I understood this correctly? Morten won the Eurovision Song Contest 1996 with the Song "Heaven's not for Saint's"?? I thought this song was only the opening song from Morten singing?? This song is so beautiful and it's a shame, that it's not on any album! Morten forever
me acuerdo vagamente, hace tanto....de el festival en noruega...ke bien cantó morten!!!! en cuanto dijeron ke era el de a-ha me acordé del take on me!!! pero estaban separados, como grupo. luego en el 2000 los vi en la tele española, presentando minor earth...

This is a really great song from the unmistakeable voice of Morten Harket. It is featured on his album "merciful waters".

yes i know morthen harket was the host, but that dont change the point that he put the rest of the conetest to shame. Thats what i think anyway.
