NaBloPoMo - September Day 1

WELCOME TO NABLOPOMO SEPTEMBER EDITION!!!!

This month's topic is HA!

Today's HA! topic is A-Ha!'s "Take On Me" video. This was the only song I liked from them. This song was recorded in 1984 and released in 1985. It hit #1 on Billboard's US Charts.

Great post!
I think they were a "one hit wonder" ...I don't remember anything else by them. Wow, 1985 ....the year I married J-Bob's daddy!
Hope you have a nice Labor Day!

Sue - you know I thought they were a one hit wonder. I don't remember anything else from them either. Happy Labor Day my friend. I hope you have an easy day at work!!!

BG - It's OK, still post it. We are bound to all have repeats between all of us. I'm so glad you started it. It is a lot of fun!

I have to admit I HATED that song in 85. Still hate that song...unless Reel Big Fish does it. Then I loves it. I think it is the video. The dudes hair and the Debbie Gibson clone just irk me :P

Starrlight - LOL! I totally understand. So many people loved the "Tainted Love" song and I can't stand it. :D

Jodi-
Got a big kick out of seeing that video again. But I also love tainted love. The original Tainted Love was a 60's soul song by Gloria Jones...

Bud - I know, the video brings back a lot of memories. I probably would like the soul version of Tainted Love. I don't know what it is, the Soft Cell version drives me insane.
