very cool - so different than A-ha...that's why I like this. The way they had A-ha, I wouldn't want it any other way...I loved them as a group..no one will ever have Morten's voice and it wouldn't be for A-ha if it weren't for Pal's songs...Mags was always sweet on the keyboards...but this is Pal's doing and he's really not bad as a singer himself...just different and I like different =)
if you think of songwritter of his generation, where are the others? remember the cure, they arent making new stuff, neither the U2 guys they are pretty boring, and remember Roland orzabal the guy from tears for fears, where are all of them? paul still remains fresh, while the others became dull,
i say it everywhere and still not getting tired, this Paul W never needed a-ha, he could be greate alone, is a great songwritter with a good voice, he never needed Magne F or Morten H. to be succesfull, also he could be a greater star if he was brave enough but at last is all his fault,
I do believe that Paul is one of the greatest composers of our time. Savoy is an awesome band, but a-ha is incomparable and timeless. My favorite band.
Don't completely agree... The darker songs of A-ha should have been sung by Paul imho. Btw, ever read the lyrics to "Daylights Wasting" from Savoy? "... I had a band of certain fame, the brownstone walk, ups was our name. The singer was fair but got it wrong, he never did justice to my songs. He did more for me and that's a fact but when he went he stabbed me in the back" ...
I think Paul is a fantastic songwriter. Actually the best that has ever been! And with Mortens voice,also one of the best there has been, he has created timeless music.
@Rickknippers i really can´t understand wat was paul thinking when he wrote that song..how can a singer make a song more justice than morten? ..i really thought that was not a good attitude from pal.

Lauren's voice gives to the song a great and scary "thing" to the song and I like it

It looks like a Japanese horror movie!! Yeah!! I like it. Lauren's voice makes the song creepier. She's a good foil for Pal.
