Hunting High and Low

Hunting High and Low (1985) more music like this

by a-ha

Anyone who dismissed a-ha as a one-hit wonder must have missed out on the band's fine debut, Hunting High and Low. Though the band spawned many further hits across the rest of the world, "Take on Me" exploded in the States and the group never cracked the top of the charts again. It's a shame, because the album contains a handful of songs that ...

Best of Bond...James Bond: 40th Anniversary Edition

Best of Bond...James Bond: 40th Anniversary Edition (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

One of the signature aspects of a James Bond movie is its theme song, and, as demonstrated on this collection of those songs, there is a remarkable consistency to them. 1962's Dr. No, the first Bond film, featured Monty Norman's "James Bond Theme," a distinctive instrumental piece that has figured in every Bond picture since and that leads off the ...

Scoundrel Days

Scoundrel Days (1986) more music like this

by a-ha

While not quite as strong as the band's debut, Scoundrel Days is still a-ha succeeding as a marketed "pretty boy" band which can connect musically and lyrically as much as any musical sacred cow. The opening two songs alone make for one of the best one-two opening punches around: the tense edge of the title track, featuring one of Morten Harket's ...

East of the Sun, West of the Moon

East of the Sun, West of the Moon (1990) more music like this

by a-ha

A small surprise, too quickly destined for the cut-out bins considering the way their career finally went after Hunting High And Low. This is a nicely crafted collection of songs, performed and sung beautifully, with lots of echoes and suggestions tucked into the music. While not an album one can discuss at length, it's an album that's a pleasure ...

'80s Gold

'80s Gold (2006) more music like this

by Various Artists

Beneath the flourish, extravagance, and pretension that saturated the pop charts during the '80s lay a culture rich in innovation that brought about the rise of truly groundbreaking music and an indomitable spirit of independence, not to mention nationwide networks that fostered originality and valued substance over style. That side of things is ...

Stay on These Roads

Stay on These Roads (1988) more music like this

by a-ha

a-ha's recording career hit the skids in America with its third release. But in the U.K., the album became the group's third straight to peak at number two, though it charted for a shorter period than the first two albums, and there were four Top 25 hits -- the title track, "The Blood That Moves the Body," "Touchy!," and "You Are the One." (Also ...

Minor Earth Major Sky

Minor Earth Major Sky (2000) more music like this

by a-ha

A-ha's sixth studio CD (seventh if their greatest-hits collection is included) came seven years after their previous album, Memorial Beach, and in that time it seems that a-ha mellowed out. They do not seem to have concern about attracting the youth/dance market, but instead seem to be focusing in on how to make perfect middle-of-the-road pop ...

VH1: The Big 80's

VH1: The Big 80's (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

Halfway through the '90s, the programmers of VH1 realized there was a whole audience that hungered for the great videos of the '80s -- not only new wave refugees, but a generation of younger fans to whom the sounds of the early '80s were as classic as the British Invasion. So VH1 invented The Big '80s, a show that specialized in '80s videos. Once ...

Monster '80s

Monster '80s (2000) more music like this

by Various Artists

Monster '80s certainly lives up to its name, collecting some of the decade's most memorable singles, from the suave, sophisticated pop of Spandau Ballet's "True" to the ultra-perky cheerleader chant of Toni Basil's "Mickey." The Stray Cats' "Stray Cat Strut" and Adam Ant's "Goody Two Shoes" relive the '50s via the '80s, while Rick Springfield's ...

Millennium: '80s New Wave Party, the final installment in Rhino's five-disc series Millennium Party, basically recycles 20 hits available in the label's extensive new wave series Just Can't Get Enough, but it does so in style. Like other volumes in the series, New Wave Party contains nothing but genre classics, the songs everybody knows. In this ...

Only Dance 1985-1989 (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

It's Only Dance 1985-1989 follows the pattern of JCI's It's Only series, offering a seemingly random collection of 20 hits from a given genre or style for a period of five years. These songs weren't necessarily the biggest hits of these five years, although there are a number of classics and smashes here. It may be hard to deduce exactly why these ...

Rock On 1985 (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

Volume 16 in Madacy's year-by-year overview of the biggest hits of the'70s and '80s charts the beginning of the latter decade's descent into mediocrity -- the excitement of the New Wave and New Romantic movements had given way to the more conventional sounds of Survivor ("The Search Is Over") and Corey Hart ("Never Surrender"), although the ...

Lifelines (2002) more music like this

by a-ha

A difference from their last effort yet undeniably a-ha. This time, the Norse purveyors of quality pop have opted for a variety of producers, ranging from Stephen Hague to Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley. The album begins with a lush ballad -- which is typical a-ha, pastoral with support orchestration -- almost like a modern day Moody Blues. "You ...

The Best of James Bond: 30th Anniversary [2 Disc Set] (1992) more music like this

The Best of James Bond: 30th Anniversary is a limited-edition double-disc set that collects the hit versions of all the James Bond themes, as well as adding an extra disc of unreleased material, featuring commericals and incidental music composed by John Barry. Bond collectors will delight with the rarities, but many listerners will settle for the ...

MTV the First 1000 Years: New Wave (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

It may be hard to get beyond the title of Rhino's series MTV the First 1000 Years, which just may be the dumbest title in the first 1000 years of the recording industry, but the actual discs aren't bad at all. For instance, the New Wave volume is a solid collection of 15 hits, all that received a considerable boost from the music television ...

Analogue (2005) more music like this

by a-ha

The Norwegian band a-ha had never really been away, so the 2006 album Analogue was hardly a comeback but a continuation of their 20-plus years of hitmaking. If anything, it was a return to form after the disappointing Lifelines album. The opening track, "Celice," was released in Europe only and featured Morten Harket's trademark falsetto vocals ...

Kuschelrock, Vol. 7 (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Distributed in Europe, the Kuschelrock series is often uneven in its attempts to throw pop hits of all stripes together in one package, taking little consideration into the fact that most people don't have wildly diverse taste in music. The seventh volume of the series is quite scattershot, bounding from early-'80s arena rock to ultrahumble '90s ...

Headlines and Deadlines: The Hits of A-Ha (1998) more music like this

by a-ha

Norway's a-ha took "Take on Me" to the number one spot on Billboard's Top 40 in 1985, thanks to the award-winning animated video that accompanied it. Still, a-ha contributed rather accordingly to the '80s pop sound, drenching their music with bouncy riffs and employing the keyboard as the foundation to their colorful formula. Headlines and ...

Kuschelrock, Vol. 2 (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Kuschelrock, Vol. 2 isn't as musically coherent as some of the later volumes in the series, as it mixes pop hits from two distinctly different musical eras -- the '70s and the '80s -- but it still functions as a handy way to obtain loads of popular singles in one two-disc swoop. The biggest negative factor might be the import price, but then again ...

18 New Wave Classics, Vol. 2 (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

Much like the first volume of the series, 18 New Wave Classics, Vol. 2 doesn't offer a wholly appropriate selection of new wave singles; it takes a few too many liberties with the style's end (around 1984), but it does still contain a mostly enjoyable selection of '80s material. Non-new wave from the Smiths ("Girlfriend in a Coma"), Erasure ( ...
