a-ha Summer moved on cover - Dave Forward (live practice)

Practice of Aha's "Summer Moved On". The backing is by Starlite Karaoke and the whole thing was recorded via a Nokia N93 mobile phone propped up near a speaker. This is mainly a practice to get used to the mic. As there's no vocal compression or proper mixing, some parts suffer slightly including the long note of 21 seconds.

Thanks scousersmate. I'm looking to perform this and probably either "Cry Wolf" or "Living Daylights" at a karaoke this Saturday night. I'm really looking forward to it. If you're likely to be in the area (or anyone else who likes A-ha's music), please feel free to inbox me and I'll let you have some details.

Wow... i can´t say anything... but one... very beatyfull voice!!!!!

[davef66video]

Aww, thank you!

[Svartjarl]

Really nice. My congratz.

Would you tell me where your falsetto begins? I mean your voice range. I desperately try to catch the moment where Morten starts singing in falsetto.

[davef66video]

Thank you. The point of falsetto overlaps at least an octave of the normal range. On “Summer Moved On” , the top notes in the chorus “Stay, don’t” are B & A which I sing in falsetto. I’m not sure if Morton sings the second note of that in falsetto but I personally find it more comfortable. Those are the only notes in “Summer Moved On” which are sang in falsetto. I can sustain the same B in normal range if I sing U2's Pride, which is also Morton’s top note in Hunting High and Low.
