#9 Dream​a-ha

Songwriter: John Lennon

Producer: ​a-ha

So long ago
Was it in a dream?
Was it just a dream?
Oh, I know, yes, I know
It seemed so very real
Seemed so real to me
Took a walk down the street
Through the heat whispered trees
I thought I could hear
Hear
Hear
Hear
Somebody calls out my name
Two spirits dancing so strange
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
Dream, dream away
Magic in the air
Was magic in the air?
I believe, yes, I believe
More I cannot say
What more can I say?
On a river of sound
Through the mirror go round
Round
I thought I could feel
Feel
Feel
Feel
Music touching my soul
Something warm, sudden cold
The spirit dance was unfolding
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)
#9 Dream
(Aah, bowakawa, pousse pousse)

​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.
