DEF: A-ha “Take On Me”
With their song “Take On Me,” Oslo, Norway-based band a-ha produced one of the 1980s’ most quintessential music videos. Meanwhile, the song itself is a standard among 1980s classics. Exactly 30 years ago, “Take On Me” rose to number one on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart, where it would reign for one week. To commemorate that anniversary, a-ha’s biggest hit is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
