a-ha - The Sun Always Shines On TV

[AireanRanger]

Wow. I'm 14 and I LOVE this song! Why can't artists today write such great music...

[CatalanaFCB]

@AireanRanger Me too! I love the 80's music! A major part of actual music is created for computer and no are any video with any person half naked...Why I born in this time? Love 80's! ♥

(Sorry for the traduction, i'm from catalonia (spanish...))

[isaacrife08]

@CatalanaFCB kind of you can fire up an old analog synthesizer from around this time, plug her into a PC and record the "80's sound" to your hearts content.

[SuperTomo1965]

@isaacrife08 A bit difficult unless you know how to play a synth, or come to that work a PC. I would rather let the experts do it, I will just listen.

[elijahlover69]

wow hes so hot in this

[LedWilde]

The singer still has the same hair-do except he's practically bald on top now and has a handlebar mustache. Pretty much like Hulk Hogan with the hair and facial hair.

[Nullermand78]

@LedWilde

lmao u on drugs ? He got more hair than the average teenie lol

[LedWilde]

@Nullermand78 Yeah. I was lying. Actually I had no idea what he looked like until after I typed that.

[EscocesDoido]

Yep - I remember it the day it was released - I was there in my local disco with this amazing girl - Ahhhh the memories!!!!!

[bulembu1]

Flippen awsome music!!!!!!! And still great 27 years later.

[EscocesDoido]

Brilliant musik - I was 17 years old at the time!!!

[mannyme319]

so now they force you to watch commercials, sweet

[CrazyGeorge3]

Thumbs up if you're a retard

[ex59neo53]

Quality is timeless :)

[DTOX1972NI]

1 WORD POWERFULLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[Kjernekar]

I listen to dubstep...and I love this song:)

[Vavazelus]

I remember this as if it was yesterday. Back in 1985 this song rose me up from the dead. I was crushed that my first love left me. Great and bitter times back then, if that makes sense. I guess my youth over came all. Thank A-Ha for being there.!

[ashleywolf1012]

SEXY SEXY MAN

[Albr0x]

Never gets old!

[fandeconsolesII]

lol la messe du dimanche y montre bien que les gens c est des gros pantins en plastoc

[Consequentiality]

@Databamse This is a valid point. I believe I need to visit a psychologist...

[Databamse]

@Consequentiality It took me 30 seconds to find your penis. You know if you think about birds, you are more likely to see birds at first sight if you visit mother nature, you should stop thinking about penises.

[childofda70s]

I heard this on the radio the other day and couldn't wait to come home and search for the MV and  to hear it again. Still LOVE it!! Miss 80's music and A-HA, where are you?????!!!

[dayargrosario]

@childofda70s they were making music till 2009..check wikipedia...great music in their start and still great at the final of the road...by the way here there is not an 80´s girl full of nostalgic,i just met this band a few months ago and im still fascinated..i was never a fan of nothing before! the power of a-ha! haha

[WesleyHarper101]

I bloody love this song :D

[neniraasable]

classic,why im hearing here...

[tlacuache4ever]

[Teletran35]

Wow how this still holds up I would love to blast this to kids now and say Hey we had better music

[996WizarD]

[Metiskt]

[clarkjordan123]

@kato233 They split up last year.

[TheStrongBadMan]

@clarkjordan123 Didn't see that coming

[mohamednabil1990]

@clarkjordan123

Really ? O_O

[iammontecristo]

This is one of the very first a-ha songs that I liked. The last couple of times that I have been in a cathederal, part of me wanted to do my own version of the video (true story!). And I can't help but feel like I have moments where I'm living the chorus-- not that I'm complaining about it.

[chrisashdaz]

it's cool i love it and i think i will keep commeting you and i dont know if commenting is a word even though im 8 from ashton in devon/england

[OMEGALEX77]

love it forever!!!!!!

[Martinkevich]

John always shine on TV!

[thecarebearhideaway]

A-Ha is one of the best bands to come out in the 80's and still is one heck of a band! I played this cassette day in and day out till it played no more then I bought a new one! :-D It is THAT good! My memories of this song is not only watching this video on Mtv and just being in awe of all the magic that this band put out but also sitting by the river listening to this cassette on my walkman watching the sun set behind the trees and feeling like this is how life should be and knowing it today.

[dayargrosario]

@thecarebearhideaway agree agree agree,i think you were the one that made a similar comment in hunting high and low video,i always remember your comment because that is how a-ha feels..it brings out the best of the moments

[thecarebearhideaway]

@dayargrosario Thanks so much for such a really kind comment! :-) Yeah, I probably did make a similar comment on Hunting High and Low but when I would listen to that cassette it was usually sitting by the river watching the sun set.I am outdoorsy and love to feel nature around me and listening to A-ha really brought out the best of both worlds, you know. I am glad you get that. You understand the way A-ha makes you feel! :-) Long live the 80's! :-)

[Rihew]

I was a really big a-ha fan years ago. I have grown out of this type of music, but I have to say that this is a fucking masterpiece. It rocks like hell! Best a-ha song in my opinion!

[eliopoulosgiannis]

@Rihew I agree with you!

[dayargrosario]

@Rihew check their new stuff then..they have grown up,too! hehehe. but i dont think their first albums are just for a determined age..

[Rihew]

@dayargrosario I meant I have grown out of pop music. I have never really liked their newer stuff, I'm more of a Rock n' Roll person

[TheNo1Prebo]

i like this.

[tysonfor1]

I'm only 3 and this is my fave song ever!

[janebsison36]

i really love this song,,,,until now!

[fauxham]

I was listening to this in 1985! All time favorite.

[jpriley123]

@fauxham I'm only 19 an this is one of my all time favourites, i despise todays music!!

[jpriley123]

thumbs up if you're still listening to this in 2012

[TeslaDRay]

@jpriley123

i thumbed up.

[Ilovegoldencrumpets]

@jpriley123 an enormously talented band and that comment is the best you can come up with? Fuck you're boring.

[Vashtiana]

@Ilovegoldencrumpets

But we are still listening to it in 2012 so the comment is well made :)

[voodoocan4]

@Ilovegoldencrumpets Hey!.Ilovegoldencrumpets!(reta­rded fucking name by the way)..why dont you stop being an arrogant douche bag and let people comment the way they want without your two cents worth of insight...And..I lovegoldencrumpets??really?..A­ll those cool handles out there and thats the best you could come up with?..Fuck you're boring.

[jpriley123]

@voodoocan4 I've only just read what that prick wrote but voodoocan4 ... what a man!

[Vashtiana]

@jpriley123

Fucking A

[piscis9]

@jpriley123 siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!! aun aun! ........ yessssssss! :D

[MrWhizzer22]

@jpriley123 i am a fan from when they first came out and yes, i am 44 years old

[TheColdFrontier]

@jpriley123 I'm still watching this in 2013.

[Shadowking81]

The cover Susperia did with this song was awesome too! A-Ha!!! Way to go for the Norwegians!

[LaxandreeeH]

Es un temazo! me encanta!!

[Celticism1]

in love with this song! 80's synth pop classic

[mcentepede]

I always loved this video for the only reason that these guys didn't sell out. His powers wear off and he returns to comic book world. Basically a bad ending..and no hero gets the girl in the end crap. These guys have balls to do that to the fans and I really respect that.

[pakitovillanueva]

the sun always comes for a-ha,beautiful video

[Rizkiheydrich16]

thumbs up if you go to jurassic era and listened to this.

[Kseniya16100]

Aha the best!

[badoman1]

its like pleasantville

[mannyme319]

wasnt that the movie where if you have sex you find life, wow, ya what a fucking dumb movie. look at all the happy children that train of thought has created.

[littlenemobean]

Totally reminds me of my summers in the 80s. I even saw them live in concert when I was 14. They were touring with Culture Club.

[CdPrni]

the grand piano sound in the intro is lyk ... "aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­h"

[contraloop]

for me the best Album A-Ha ever made, all the songs are great

[MrMaxlefrancais]

like this com' if you listen this beautiful song in 2012 ! ;)

[retsiembrU]

1<32M3

[MrYorkyporky]

46 people never had a TV

[kato223]

The cool thing about this video, is that it is the middle of 3 videos. It is the continuation for the video to Take On Me, and the lead in to Train of Thought. Three very good songs by one of the greatest bands to have come out of the 80's and continue to make music for 25 years.

[mkervelegan]

@kato223 chords were ripped off by Bono and the Edge b t w...

[kato223]

@mkervelegan First, give a source of what was ripped off. Secondly, it was not uncommon for bands to work with and influence each other back in the 80's.

[TheMarvlogs]

@80sOldSkool

What are these guru's

[ireneC16]

hello NO vevo

[Argastus]

Best video ever-nice work

[Seventh7son7]

Happy Days

[ciejma77]

....aż łezka się w oku kręci, the best;) 1986 yeeeaah

[fogmeister224]

Absolute class. Was on the Christmas chart of 1985- went to Number One in January 1986- deserved it. Their best record by far.

[CallmeToddy]

One of the greatest of all times , conmemorable, staking out all false MTV video generation crap . . It is it.

[80sOldSkool]

I get sick and tired of 80's so called "guru's" who keep labelling A-ha as a one hit wonder band. This song is great, way greater than "take on me" infact.

[MsCapricorn17]

Morten is soo damn sexy, and soo good looking.....can't find such a good looking guy like that no more! And, with that sexy, nice hair style too!!

[skiewthax]

thumbs up if you wanted to be born 20 years earlier than 1995 just so you could listen to this live!

[SeanieG1]

Does anyone think the channel 3 logo looks like a cock?

[mafiamanize]

I'm from norway, and a-ha is from norway too :D i thing that thats cool :D

[CARTMANYOUBASTARD69]

miss these basterds

[gstessevi]

2012: thumb up !

[templar777able]

can't get enough of this.



[ingenieraflor]

Great 4 ever!

[klutch20]

cool logo!!! :channel3 :)

[danielect5]

i love this song

[theouterplanet]

Im 40 yrs old, born in 1972 and still remember where I was and who I was with when I first saw this premiere on MTV. It never left me.

[PocoMeesh]

My early teens wouldn't have been the same without Morten, Mags & Pal. Saw these guys live in concert at Expo86. Awesome memories! <3

[davidotoole1]

Classic - these guys were really strong musicians and went far beyond their original 80s 'boy band' image. Love the mannequins in the church idea used in this vid. Look up the track 'Cold as Stone' if you wanna hear the 'heavier' side of the band #Aha #ColdAsStone

[caitlin82000]

beautiful!

[Yaksacto]

the main guy looks like nick jonas

[torvilk]

esta pocaca mdre

[arvi595]

5+!

[marinabarbosa1000]

se vc está assistindo a esse clipe em 2012,e ama essa musica dá um joinha aê

[lv4ev5]

A Ha at there best a real eighties classic.

[sharrison586]

Bono rips off the melody in Beautiful Day. Jerk.

[iammontecristo]

Sometimes, when I have a moment when I feal a bit overwhelmed, and I need to to myself or something like that, I start thinking/ humming to myself "The Sun Always Shines On TV."

[Hacker73]

A-Ha always has been a band of FIVE musicians. But they was presented as only THREE because they should not be seemed like their British "rivals' Duran Duran.

[usedforspam37]

thumbs up if you listened to this in 1987

[80sOldSkool]

@usedforspam37 Yes, but listened to it more in 1986 when it was released!!

[rjone61]

@usedforspam37 one of my all time favorites still today.

[80sHardRockLover]

@usedforspam37 do me one favor: fuck yourself. I wasn't even born in 87 and it's not funny to make me jealous

[MrJake331]

I think the question shouldn't be who is still watching this in [insert year here], but rather why not watch it in whatever year it is? It's a great song. Simple as that.

[Neomaster35]

A very good example to todays "Xfactor" crap pretenders like "Wrong Direction" what a proper and talented boy ban should be

[Guillermovegahijo]

Some one Need Sun Glases !!!

[TheANDRIOVICH]

Linda canção, que me trás recordações dos anos de juventude, que já se foram......

[portersover]

the sun always shines between 1980 and 1995

[Hacker73]

@portersover Very Beautiful Poetic Comment of yours! I agree. Good old days...

[portersover]

@Hacker73 THX:)

[vaadaenmacchi]

this song is so much better than take on me. it didnt get as much attention because the video wasnt as cool. but the keyboards are so much more haunting on this song

[mikekaraoke]

@vaadaenmacchi didnt get much attention r u joking? stayed at number one in uk for 2 weeks and was still in top 40, 5 months later! and was a big hit in several other countries reaching top 20

[Obelisk2290]

are there any ugly northern europeans and im a strait male all women all men look like models

[skwanderer69]

Does anyone else think the 'channel 3' bit looks like a cock and balls?

[GambitCretu]

@skwanderer69 Know that you think of it....it does XD

[TheShadowPrincesss]

i love these guys! the songs in my generation kinda went down the toilet >:l

[Featherfaceful]

@TheShadowPrincesss I know right. These artists actually HAVE talent...:)

[ApplesFallFromTrees]

Does anyone know the name of the movie at the start? It looks like a clip from one.

[RichieStacker]

@ApplesFallFromTrees It wasn't an actual movie. The video just kind of followed on from the video for a-ha's earlier single, "Take On Me".

[mikekaraoke]

@RichieStacker yea and train of thought they were like sequels

[Roflcopter11ty7]

@RichieStacker yeah but they should have a movie about the love story with aha songs and set in the 80s absolute lightbulb moment

[trantor06]

Trop Glam...tous à fond !!

[shredmaster100]

missed the bit at the end of the video where the us anthem is played but its a cool pop video pop music today is crap in comparison

[liam4murray1]

why is every great song i come to in the 80's, have some idiot putting *thumbs up if you listen to this in 2012* its gotta be the same guy lol

[dexterblack100]

i miei miti!!!!!!erano grandi!!!!e MORTEN ha la voce piu' bella al mondo!!!

[THEIRONMAN9]

Superb ! such a class tune.....im looking forward to the 2080's

[SuperNicky25]

Why is it they don't make them like this anymore?, all the talent has gone. Now its just mass produced crap by 'artist's' with as much musical talent as my dog!.

[localoceans]

i wish i lived in the 80s.

forget nowadays

[blenfor]

this song remind me the summers of the 80, when I was a kid...am I the only one?

[olyaroma]

@blenfor A lot of peoples just full of amotions when this song is playing, cause it was the best time ,cause it was a pure time,true time,real one.And a-ha has sometning what the others dont have, little secret what making peoples crying when they listenning this music

[ralvarezguitar]

@blenfor I feel ya!

[DrChalkwithering]

@blenfor Yes, those were the days; summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets.When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really.

[aidy6000]

@blenfor You were the only child born in the 1980's

[NLmaxdamage]

@blenfor hell if could only join you, to jong mate

[templar777able]

my niece was just 9 then, she always sings hiphop and alternative music, then there come a time when i took care of her and at home i never stop playing my music, in just a matter of days, i found her singing my songs like this one, and she said is this a new song? i said nope its just a great song thats why you sing it. She never came back to the crap music of todays. You see the best judge of good music is a child, make them choose and you'll see? Admit it 90% of music today are shit!!!

[templar777able]

this is music at its best

[RaulSkyfall]

Wow!! a-ha used the legendary Roland Jupiter-8 on this song. Actually, and if I recall correctly, Mags has always been a Roland user.

[expendables056815]

You have to listen to this music, when you are driving at the evening in the cities and then you have to think about things which happen and will change!!

:-)

[caz13122]

if you cant see the good in this song u want shot with shit !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! then again u maybe love the shit that is called music today if so kindly feck off and listen to your wank !!!!!!!

[caz13122]

i would touch him !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheWiggles1982]

lol first off girl2012 todays music is way beyond a joke its either rehashed shit from old or just not good at all lol bieber taylor swift jay z come on lil wayne shit all sounds the same get a clue and stop trying to defend crap musicians with no talent and just want to make a buck over a quality song music has and probably will get progressivly worse so dont defend shit music and knock people who know quality over quantity

[theErmysick]

NORWAY <3

[vbgirlz]

Anyone who says they were a one hit wonder band has obviously never heard this song

[SandnesPatrioten1]

thumbs up if you listen to this in 2012

[TheBeautifulcarol]

@SandnesPatrioten1 Just litsen to it 1/5/2012 simply Awesome!!!!

[abandoned23]
