Still get chills everytime I listen to this song... hadn't a clue there was a video for it... can I get a *_"Wha Wha"_* for YouTube ?????I think I wore through three tapes of *Hunting High & Low !!!* a-Ha weren't my favorite band but... something about their ethereal voices, the keys & the fantastical lyrics/videos... it always felt like I was in the middle of a fairytale when I listened...

So instead, after another long, tedious work week, I need a little humor, so I've gotta post one of my favorite videos of all time and the hilarious rendition that Family Guy did a while back... A-Ha's version:And Family Guy's version:Hope everyone has a good weekend...

Ok, so I just got the latest version of iTunes. The problem is, instead of placing artists that start with numbers and characters near the front, they're now at the very back of the library.What does this mean? This means that now, whenever I open iTunes, this is the first thing I see on their coverflow feature:So, I'm not just going to ask for artist recommendations today. GIVE ME ONLY ARTISTS...

Yep, it's my third post (second today, in fact) and already I'm working in superlatives.This is one of many reasons why my wife thinks I'm strange (musically). I absolutely hate the idea of depending solely on commercial radio for music. That's not to say I hate bands who go commercial (like at least one guy I went to college with), in fact the opposite is true - if I've been pimping a band amo...

I think it's about to time to shout from the rooftops that A-ha is NOT a one hit wonder, nor a one album wonder. YES, Take On Me, The Sun Always Shines on TV and Hunting High and Low were wonderful 80's hits. But they have had several wonderful albums since. Throughout their career, A-ha has officially released 32 singles. 13 of them became top ten singles in the UK, and 14 singles have been...

Sometimes the best hit singles by "one-hit wonders" are the ones that have been forgotten over the years.In some ways, a one-hit wonder is in the eye of the beholder (or more accurately, the memory). A-Ha peaked at #20 on the Billboard Hot 100 with "The Sun Always Shines on TV", a great song that spent four months on the chart. But most people only remember "Take on Me" (and the phenomenal vide...

Music videos aren't as creative as they used to be. They're usually just a band playing in a boring room. There are still some good creative video today but very few. I've decided to show my favorite creative video of all time. This video just kicks ass. The song may not be the greatest ever, but it's still great.
