+Morrissey has made several references to the band.<br>
+From [https://youtu.be/Jhg6v0W1wGs "Morrissey In Conversation"] (with Muriel Gray, 1987):<br>
+<blockquote>
+“I went to see a-ha in America. I really liked their records, but when I saw them it was this constant deafening squeal. Not even a respectable scream; it was an indecent squeal which completely drowned out the musicians… and which totally threw them off their racks because they seemed totally embarrassed by all these screaming girls.”
+</blockquote>
+He sang a brief part of [https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O9M-4qpdE_Y "The Sun Always Shines On TV"] at the Quart Festival, Kristiansand - July 5, 2004.<br>
+Villa Manin, Codroipo, Italy - July 14, 2006:<br>
+<blockquote>
+"So tonight we make our way to Rome... by foot... and it's the first time I will sing there since I was in a-ha in the eighties..."
+</blockquote>
+<br>
+Morten Harket said of Morrissey:
+<blockquote>
+"He almost had an erection around me! We met up in New Orleans sometime in the Eighties… he thought it was a bit difficult I think, the whole thing. He said something… I thought he was decidedly on the gay side."
+</blockquote>
