Original Article By David Stenerud - (Translation by Sabine Clement) a-ha is receiving great reviews for the single 'Summer Moved On' in the British music press. On Monday, the single will go on sale on the island.It seems the world has really been missing a-ha. And in contrast to Aqua Lene, the world got Morten Harket back.
'Minor Earth Major Sky' is the fastest selling a-ha album ever. This week, the album occupies the number 11 spot on CNN's WorldBeat Charts, which is based upon global sales, and is at number 5 on the official European Top 100 List.
Ashcroft good - a-ha best
The 'World's most important music magazine' NME has already been using laudatory words for the comeback boys. And now also Q Magazine, The Times Of London and Music 365 have joined the 'fanclub'.
The Times is of the opinion that 'Summer Moved On' beats Richard's Ashcroft's (ex Verve) solo debut 'A Song For The Lovers' as this years's best classical pop ballad. Q Magazine describes the single as "another superior slice of synth-laden Euro-pop".
Music365 isn't staying behind, and concludes the praise of Morten's falsetto and all with a simple "Irresistible".
