That damn Tears For Fears song. I liked it right up until the point when my little brother made a 90-minute tape of the song. Just that one song. Playing over and over and over again. And he'd listen to it all day.

Just that one damn song.

It's the only song I ever learned how to play during the five years that I owned a Casio.

I Wiki'd a-ha after watching that video and was surprised to find that they're still together. Watched a video from 2005 and it was actually pretty decent ("Celice"). I've now officially heard two a-ha songs.

"The Sun Always Shines on TV", a-ha's follow-up single to "Take On Me," reached a respectable #20 on the Billboard singles chart in 1985/86, and hit #1 in the UK. They had many more hits in Europe (including the theme to the Bond feature "The Living Daylights") and remain popular on the other side of the Atlantic.

This is, for a number of reasons, without a doubt the gayest thing that you have ever said since I've known you.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

It might be of interest to note that cylon0011, a lurker here who is a good friend of mine in real life, considers A-Ha to be the greatest band of all time.

It's the better song as well.
