Producer: Pål Waaktaar-Savoy Martin Terefe

Halfway through the tour
We’ll be somewhere else tomorrow
Halfway through the tour
We’ll be somewhere else tomorrow

And you know I can’t wish for more
Than walking out that door
And make it for home tomorrow
Halfway through the tour

Halfway through the tour
Houses set back from the road
Halfway through the tour
Across a dry expanse we go

And you know I can’t wish for more
Than walking out that door
And make it for home tomorrow
Halfway through the tour

But when the crowds engage
And brings you to a place
That you know
Everyone can be a part of
Everyone can be a part of it

Halfway through the tour
While there’s money to be made
Halfway through the tour
From the public eye we fade

And you know across a dry expanse
We’re flying by the seat of our pants
We’ll be somewhere else tomorrow
Halfway through the tour
I can’t do much more
Than make it for home tomorrow
Tomorrow

​a-ha

A-ha is a Norweigian synth pop group formed in 1982. All ten of their studio albums have either reached #1 or #2 in Norway – the first three also reaching the top 10 in several countries across Europe – with a total of over 35 million sold worldwide. They became a ‘teen pin-up band’ and were followed by screaming, enthusiastic fans. In 2012, all three members were appointed to knighthood in Norway for their contributions to music.

Frontman Morten Harket was lured away from the blues/soul group Soldier Blue in 1982 by keyboardist Magne Furuholmen to join his band with guitarist Paul Waaktaar. When Harket saw a song in Waaktaar’s notebook that was going to be titled either “a-ha” or “A-hem”, he suggested naming the band “a-ha”.

A year later, the band released their debut single “Take On Me” in 1984 to huge success in Norway. However, when the song was re-recorded and re-released alongside their debut album Hunting High And Low in the summer of 1985 it achieved massive international success, reaching #1 in eleven countries. Its success was definitely aided by its groundbreaking, award-winning music video of pencil-sketch animation combined with live-action shots.
