Das ist ja mal geil!!! Obwohl ich klarer Vertreter der jeweiligen Originale bin ist diese Cover-Version richtig gut gemacht!!! bin nur durch nen Zufall draufgekommen...
Wow. I remember watching this video when it only had about 15,000 views. It's awesome to see that more people have found out about this song. Thumbs way up for this cover
I first heard this on an episode of 'Private Practice' and fell in love with it! You've done a great job Runar, it is really an amazing, emotive version!
Spyropoulos...the Canadian here! I've already played this version for so many! The verdict is out...it's better than the original! Not sure what is my favourite though, this or "Leave the light on"! And as I understand, that's an original!!!
This is one of the best songs I've ever heard, nevermind that it's a cover. I didn't think it was possible to make my favorite 80's song any better, and every cover I've ever heard has done a mediocre job at best, but this - this is stunning.
I haven't been able to find it anywhere and I've really been looking! I even looked under Chad Fischer who is in the group. I sure am into Lazlo Bane though, I even bought one of their CD's "Guilty Pleaseures" If you happen to find it let me know.
really god man! your frome denmark ? i think. well i frome america and love aha! i like the norwigian version better. but this was shiting goooooooooood! love it. darker then morten! but almost as god as the real norwigian version! :)
Great video! Very professional done! But I actually like you're acoustic version ten times better. Best cover version of Take On Me, defintely! Greetings from Holland.
Dette er bedre enn originalen!! Fy***! Så bra!!!!!. Dette var jo en god nyhet! :)))) det var bra å høre dette klokka 06:45 som frokost!!! ....Må høre en gang til!!!.....
Græder hver gang jeg hører din stemme Rúnar... Den er så smuk! Har aldrig hørt noget lignende... Tusind tak for Joanna sangen også. Har så meget respekt for dig og dit musik... Best wishes, Carina
UPDATE!!! Ang Rúnars musik....I løbet af næste uge udkommer hans første single i Danmark! OG JA, det bliver Take On Me!!! Så det med julegaven kan du stadig nå! ;-)
Fredag d. 12.12. spiller Rúnar igen...2 gange i Sønderborg og en gang i Åbenrå...
Nej, man kan ikke købe Rúnars cd i Danmark. Den er kun udgivet på Island. Men men hvis du er i nærheden af Sønderborg d. 5/12 eller Kolding d. 6/12, kan du måske få fat på en. Han holder nemlig to afskedskoncerter, inden han flytter tilbage til Island... Tjek facebook, fans of Rúnar Eff!
Weltklasse... Jeg er solgt... Blir rørt i mit dybe sind, ligesom jeg gjorde til Allstars da han sang Joanna. Hvornår kommer der noget på gaden??? 12-14 i den kvalitet og vi har et UOTSTANDING album.
lovely version. you bring a hole new angle to it. I think there are some other a-ha songs that could fit you well, like "Solace" or "Manhattan Skyline"...
WOW I love this song! I have it on my myspace playlist and I can't get enough of listening to it. I can't find it anywhere to download or buy! AHHH!! What a great job on this cover, absolutely beautiful!
As a massive a-ha fan i always cringe when i hear cover versions of the bands work, but i have to say that this is a wonderful verson of an iconic song. Well done!
I agree! Most people doesn't realize a-ha actually write pretty dark lyrics to their songs. "Take On Me" actually is a pretty sad love song, but the musical arrangement is so upbeat and catchy, most people doesn't get get the message in the song. Runar Eff has made a brilliant cover of this song, there is no doubt about it!
Aldrei verið aha fan og verð það nú sein úr þessu en þetta er bara geggjað. mun prómótera þetta í Noregi. Verður gaman að sjá hvað nossurunum mun fynnast um þessa útgáfu. þetta seldist bara í fjórfaldri platínu þar.
Sat in my car on the road home from work. The radio was on, and BOOM your song came on. An absolutley stunning version of Aha - Take on me. Keep it coming!
Have you released any albums?And where can I get them?
Just heard this on P4 (norwegian radio) and I was shocked. You're amazing. I heard there were different norwegian people interested in your musical talent so I hope you get a record contract, even if they're Norwegian or not :)
