Song Stories, "Take On Me"

"Take On Me" by Norwegian trio A-Ha is one of the greatest pop
songs ever made. We'll talk about the history of the song, Morten
Harket's vocal gymnastics, and all the '80s instruments they used
including the LinnDrum and the Roland Juno 60 synthesizer. "Take
On Me" also had one of the greatest music videos ever made. We'll
talk about how the video's animation was created, and how it gave
new life to the song for American audiences.
