This is my version of the popular Aha song "Take on Me". Recorded with an acoustic guitar at Redline Studio.

Aha did a stripped down acoustic version in their MTV unplugged performance which inspired me to do my version of it. :)

This is the background of the song from wikipedia: 
"Take On Me" is a 1984 song by Norwegian synth-pop band A-ha. The original version was produced by Tony Mansfield and remixed by John Ratcliff. The 1985 was produced by Alan Tarney for the group's debut studio album, Hunting High and Low (1985). The song combines synth-pop with a varied instrumentation, including acoustic guitars, keyboards, and drums.

The original "Take On Me" was recorded in 1984 and took two versions and three releases to chart in the United Kingdom, reaching number two on the UK Singles Chart in October 1985. In the United States in October 1985, it became the only A-ha song to top the Billboard Hot 100, assisted by wide exposure on MTV of its innovative music video, directed by Steve Barron. The video features the band in a live-action pencil-sketch sequence. The video won six awards and was nominated for two others at the 1986 MTV Video Music Awards.

This week, Matt and Andrew discuss Bon Jovi's hit album Slippery When Wet in all its classic hair-band, glam-rock, 80s-cheese glory! For the second time, Andrew isn't too keen on Matt's album choice, but it leads to fun commentary and mispronunciation of words. Also, Andrew is FINE! He's fine. Totally okay. Not a single problem. It's fine. This album features mega classic rock hits "Livin' on a Prayer", "You Give Love a Bad Name", and "Wanted Dead or Alive".

Meta Tiskot (When You Go Silent) is a Maltese indie-folk ballad about silence, loss, and the way life keeps moving.
With a warm, human voice, it captures the moments between words and breaths — between the sea and the city.

"Never Gonna Give You Up" is a single by Rick Astley, released in 1987. The song was released as the first single from his debut album, Whenever You Need Somebody. The song was a worldwide number-one hit, initially in the singer's native United Kingdom in 1987, where it stayed at the top of the chart for five weeks and was the best-selling single of that year. It eventually topped the charts in 25 countries, including the United States and West Germany. The music video for the song has become the basis for the "Rickrolling" Internet meme. The song is considered Astley's signature song and it is often played at the end of Astley's live concerts. R2DJ has remixed this old school number one hit from the 80's into a future bass banger using the vocals and melody superbly with his own sound. Please check this out like share and comment.

(The lyrics contain 54 Depeche-Mode-Songtitles. Yes, I like DM.)

the sun & the rainfall
the landscape is changing
dream on
waiting for the night
the meaning of love
to have and to hold
shake the disease
get the balance right
people are people
dressed in black
new life
useless
new dress
happiest girl
in your room
it's no good
i want you now
one caress

(this ain't) nodisco
the damaged people
suffer well
it doesn't matter
when the body speaks
my secret garden
speak & spell

freelove
strangelove
sea of sin
love in itself
a question of time
i just can't get enough
only when i lose myself
i feel you
i am you
i feel loved
in"sight" your memory
walking in my shoes
in a world full of nothing
if you want
get right with me

(this ain't) nodisco
the damaged people
suffer well
it doesn't matter
when the body speaks
my secret garden
speak & spell

policy of truth
something to do
but not tonight
sacred
shout
sometimes
flexible
get the balance right
lie to me
enjoy the silence
what's your name?
here is the house
everything counts
never let me down again

(this ain't) nodisco
the damaged people
suffer well
it doesn't matter
when the body speaks
my secret garden
speak & spell
