So, after reviewing this thread, I forwarded a link to the Take on Me video to my drummer-the-record-producer - he is producing a few tracks on A-Ha’s latest CD (for U.S. Dopers, A-Ha continue to do quite well outside the U.S., regularly selling out large venues - at least that is what I was told by my friend; does this sound right Euro-Dopers?)

His reply to me?

They hadn’t seen it.
