And You Tell Me (Demo)​a-ha

Released: March 24, 1986

Songwriter: Pål Waaktaar-Savoy

Please don't hurt me
I have told you
All my love is
All I've got
And tomorrow is the day
When I for your sake
I'm coming back

And you tell me
That I don't love you

I'm trying hard to make you jealous
Thinking maybe it will make you stay
It's so hard, love drives me crazy
It's so hard when you're away

And you tell me
That I don't love you

Because I love you
I will show you all the faces my love can have
So, please
Let me come to you and stay this time

And you tell me
That I don't love you

Oh you know that it's just not true
And you know...

​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.
