a-ha Video Interview: Leonard Cohen, Morrissey, Moisturiser & Drugs - The Quietus

The influence of Morrissey and Leonard Cohen on a-ha, that Family Guy episode, and the benefits of a good moisturiser.

Magne and Morten from a-ha have spoken with the brilliant Akira The Don (himself described as "the rap Morrissey") about their new album and, around the 3.30 mark, discuss Mozzer. Interestingly, they agree a new song "Shadowside", would have fitted very well on Vauxhall and I.

A-ha's new album is good all the way through, but 'Shadowside' is probably the best track. I can see why they say it wouldn't have been out of place on Vauxhall & I. It would be an excellent live cover song for Moz, though I'm not sure he could hit the high notes!

      It should be noted that their English is impeccable.

      Puts us English speakers to shame, actually.

          At the Quart festival in 2004 Moz came on stage singing 'The Sun Always Shines On TV', and introduced himself as 'Morten Harket'. I believe he said '...and my name is Morten' at Sentrum 2006 as well...

          Morton will turn 50 in September! He is just a little younger than Morrissey!
