a-ha - The Living Daylights - Rock In Rio II 1991

[alessya87]

But OMGGGG, Morten!!! Is he the most handsome man ever, or what???

And look at that crowd! Mindblowing. This is AMAZING! <3

[alessya87]

Where the heck was I when this was happening?!

Oh yeah, I was in Europe, 4 years old... :|

[cristinawilligs]

when i was a silly teenager morten was my favorite aha member, but now that im old and had better ear i can say paul rocks

[chichiboypumpi]

GREAT ODIN BE PROUD

[RockTilYouDrop]

This was recorded one year before I was born. Best band ever!! Proud Norwegian :)

[01Mamoo]

such a sweet man morten he my no 1 favourite

[fotosbsas]

I just love them so much! It's really hard to say goodbye to such an amazing band. I remember this concert, I saw it live on TV. I was 9 years old and I was wishing I was there all the time. Last week I finally got to see them performing live, and I also talked to Morten! It was a dream come true. A-ha forever!

[Gremlin81]

The bass guitar sounds awesome!

[ahasoares]

desculpe mas não falo em Ingles!

[boruc1276]

I think a-ha has something in common with Duran Duran.

[albertcook1960]

That night of January 1991, A-Ha broke the record and brought almost 200,000 people to Maracana stadium. Ironically, the record-breaking concert and the lack of media attention they received were a devastating blow to the band. The 1991 Rock In Rio festival, which should have been the band's crowning achievement was, instead, a moment of crushing disappointment. MTV interviewed all the other bands, but A-Ha. They may be a one-hit band to the media, but not to the fans.

[snugglypiggy]

I was 10 when I watched them on Globo......A-HA and New Kids on the Block HAHAHA BTW, the NKOTB have been quite successful with their comeback. Who would have thought:!?

[LCCRJB21]

just awsome... now I can die after seeing this ! thanks for sharing !

[Gremlin81]

Great tune! Just wish the newer bond tunes were as good as this!

[Arcticangel39]

5.45 - 6.45 - fantastic, awesome

i wish i was there

[abdc135]

my favorite bond film and also a really good song. actually, two of the members are in family with buddies of mine.

Go Norway!

[758sss]

How sweet and lucky that little kid was :)

[Bethfromwigan]

If it's not too much trouble, would anyone who has this be willing to make me a copy of this concert and send it to me, either onto a blank VHS tape or blank dvd ?.I can send you a private message with my address.I jsut hope these clips wont be removed from youtube any time, and it would be great to have this concert to keep : )

[Bethfromwigan]

is this available on video or dvd, and is the first rock in rio concert from 1989 available to buy too ?

[Cta2006]

No, a-ha's performance at Rock In Rio in 1991 has never been released officially. a-ha's performances in Rio in 1989 were normal a-ha concerts and not part of Rock in Rio. These concert were never released officially either. Only shown on TV.

[GAMINDORE]

OH such a dirty habit throw things on the stage, they should be arrested

[ClaudiaSaldanha]

Cta2006, How do you got this video??

It's a brazilian tv. I'm brasilian too.

I love this song

[elsoda]

americans as usual with their awful bad fucking taste have missed out on this great band...

[babajohn0]

Yes, you are right!!! I am American and a TRUE fan!!! No one I know, is into them at all, except one Persian friend of mine!!! The finest man that ever lived, and the best band that ever played!!!

[snugglypiggy]

I'm Brazilian and living in USA. When I found out most Americans think of them as "one hit wonders" I was fuming!!!! Except for a music producer friend from England (who actually was at the studio when they recorded "The Sun Always Shines on TV"), nobody thinks of them as the SICK band they are!!!

[babajohn0]

That is So true... I will get to see them in LA in May... I am so glad!!!

[snugglypiggy]

Thank you for mentioning the May concert in LA!!! Such a hassle having to travel to Brasil to seem them BUT LA is another story!!! I'll be there...both nights!!!!!

[babajohn0]

You are so lucky! I had to take my niece out for her b-day the Saturday am that they went on sale... so I only got Sunday night. But, better than nothing right!!

[elsoda]

as a hispanic living here in u.s.a it makes me happy knowing that brazilians, like most south americans audience..have some good fucking taste. i was sooo damn happy when i found out that GUNS n ROSES didnt sell out....and of course the good taste went with AHA! they are just fucking amazing...i loveee youuuu aha!

[fabant1]

Maior público do rock in rio. 110,000 pessoas.

[Cta2006]

It was 198 000

[Bethfromwigan]

Do you have the clip of them playing Touchy at this concert ?.It used to be on here but now i cant find it !.I'd love to watch it again.

[Lilimacca]

I was thereeeeeee! This day changed my life forever, I was just a 11 years old girl in this concert....my life was never the same after this day, in a good way :-)

[mago262001]

uma das minhas musicas favoritas..e esse show foi demais,será inesquecivel

[jcorbellini]

"Were" is not correct, cause they just played in Rio de Janeiro... and in another places as well...

[dontpanicblink]

A-HA were a very good band mind you i also liked guns n roses,200000 the amount of times axel rose fell out with the other band members.

[ednilsons2]

Dizem que nessa ediçao do rock rio A-ha foi a banda com maior publico .... nun sei se foi verdade mas por esse video nao duvido nadaaaaaaaa!

[miskas212]

WTF...They are gay? Hell no...

Morten has 5 children, Pal (the guy playing the electric guitar) has 2 (a boy and a girl) and Mags has 3

[Laurelin70]

Actually, Pal has 1 boy and Mags has 2

[sapirinha]

que show massa foi esse meu Deus. Só uma vez na vida mesmo. Tinha gente demais aí dentro.

Perfeito!

[haroof]

lol what in the hell is morten wearing?!?

[Shadowglimt]

lool! x)) Good Question ! x) Wth the hell x)

[adrialbati]

WORLD RECORD! Nobody can beat A-ha in an stadium audience! Set your hopes up way too high, the living's in the way we die... A-ha is the best! The rest is the rest...

[758sss]

A-ha have the record for most paying audience. Here is what Wikipedia wrote: At the Rock in Rio II festival in January 1991, A-ha shocked the international entertainment press by gathering a paying audience of 198,000 people at Maracanã Stadium for their top-billed evening — a Guinness World Record for paying audiences. George Michael, Prince and Guns N' Roses managed to gather only sixty thousand each.

[Cta2006]

They don't hold it any longer but held it for a very long time :-)

[Laurelin70]

What is the new record?

[Cta2006]

198 000 - 200 000 paying audience for a-ha

[ROBOgirlie]

Morten is BUFF!

<3

Love a-ha...they are awesome live.

[vvllcc22]

ESSE CANTOR É UMA DELÍCIA...

[eco6350]

Gosh, this was a fenomenal show, and this is my favorit part of it! I used to have this video, but as my hause was robbed, the damn thieves took the VCR, and the video was in it! It was what I missed the most!

Good to have it back somehow!

And by the way, I wished I was that boy....which, by the way, should be in his twenties now....lol!!!!

[BoRich1985]

One of the best james bond songs!! oohh oohh ohh ohh the living daylights, oohh oohh oohh oohh the living daylights

[barrovirtual]

Essa voz é do Bial apresentando a banda na Globo.

Essa banda é tudo que há de melhor nesse mundo. Pena que eles próprios não dão prioridade ao A-ha.

[newvicon]

cool video! I was born in 91'. Aha has a cool sound!

[flaviofrccncoutinho]

um máximo o show do a-ha adoro esta banda,uma das melhores banda do mundo!

[antonesauf]

oh my god,this is phenomenal,ha ha!!

[ahasoares]

A Rede Globo alcançou com a transmissão do show do A-ha o maior índice de audiência no festival, tanto que no fim deste mesmo ano foi o único show do Rock in Rio II a ser reprisado na programação de fim de ano que alcançou níveis muito elevados de telespectadores mesmo sendo na noite da virada do ano de 1991/1992!

É lamentavel no entanto o total descrédito que esta emissora e o grupo Globo de comunicação dá esta banda internacional que deu tanto Ibope na sua programação!

[Cta2006]

In English, please

[Cta2006]

George Michael, Guns'N Roses and Prince played for 60 000 each. a-ha played for 198 000. ( Unofficially over 200 000 )

[elsoda]

I LOVE IT. Axl rose from guns n roses was mad cause aha sold out the stadium in brazil while the stadium was half empty on the night GnR playes. Aha, probably the most underated band ever..specially here in the states.

[BeverlyHills666]

the stadium wasn't half empty for GN'R

[Cta2006]

and by that you mean ?

[BeverlyHills666]

I mean ev'rybody went to see GN'R

[Cta2006]

a-ha set a world record in paying concert audience here. How can GN'R have gathered " everyone " ?

[Vebbster]

I'm sorry but the Guns and Roses crowd wasn't even close to what the a-ha crowd was.

60.000 people against almost 200.000

You are pretty gay.

[BeverlyHills666]

don't think so, just because a-ha is gay music, so just go buy a coldplay album my friend an' go fuck yerself ha ha

[Vebbster]

It's actually a fact. Just like the fact that you are extremely stupid and most likely don't have many friends. And by the way, your heterosexual friends Coldplay have been caught many times playing "gay" a-ha music. what are you gonna believe now? Idiot.

[haroof]

lol guns n roses couldn't pull 198,000 in their wildest dreams.

they can't even keep the band together.

[bananaboy9018]

George Michael, Prince and G&R managed to pull 180000 COMBINED! A-HA rule!

[olepetterlfc]

Wrong... It came like 60.000 to the GN'R concert.

[cristinawilligs]

@elsoda aha had got 25 years career, and now where is guns n roses, obviously they were greate at their time, but they couldnt last 10 years

[cristinawilligs]

@elsoda but this happened only in the States, you see this video right? well aha remains that popular in the rest of the world, not just brazil, they are also greate in russia

[PennyOz]

I wish I was that boy ... hehe!!

yes Paul is a good singer!

[Gougaou]

thanks

[Cta2006]

a-ha is from Norway

[tompster2]

norway i think

[Gougaou]

from whick country are they?

[Gougaou]

I was born that year.

[paulyc02]

I was only seven... I missed all that :(

By the way Morten looks so cute with that boy.

[Gougaou]

This boy was very lucky.He chose him from 180000 people.

[sisamiklosovic]

omg, just GRRREAT:)

[felipo88]

A great performance. I like the end, where Pal sings, he is a good singer.

[zeldasc]

I wish I was there too...

[758sss]

I'm Norwegian btw :) (and I have been on a party with Morten) hehe :D

[758sss]

I wish I was there, must have been the best concert ever...with all those lovely Brasilian fans singing their hearts out :)!! I can't believe that A-ha was so popular, Brasil is my dream-land .... always wanted to go there :) I hope I can visit you together with A-ha soon .. :D :D

[valagasu]

oh my god! it's a masterpiece!!!

[loekedoe]

Yes that is a fact...no dvd from this performance !??

Unbelievable !!! a pity

[hansenb1]

Thanks a million for this. Warners should have released this on dvd.

H1

[Jalla008]

Wonderful athmosphere in this video. 198 000 in the crowd is amazing...

[Cta2006]

The midsection and singalong in the end is insane :-)
