Morten Harket- Norwegian frontman of pop band A-Ha & a Vintage Beefcake

He's holding up really well

Too bad he's a hard core right-winger now.

That turned me off to A-Ha.

r7 Link to proof of this?

Sounds like they hate Trump, R7

A-Ha was the first concert I went to without my parents. It was sponsored by Agree shampoo, complete with huge inflatable bottles flanking either side of the stage.

On the way there the muffler to my 1981 Chevy Citation fell off. Being a young gayling, I ran into the busy intersection and grabbed the muffler, not realizing that it would be hot.

I've always liked the accoustic version of Take On Me he did.

It's like a reverse of Pet Shop Boys Always on My Mind and Elvis.

Tragic case of tinynips, though.

He still looks good.

He’s not very beefy.

Who said he was beefy?

Vintage Beefcupcake

He and that other dude are beautiful

Do they even live in the states? Why are we wondering how Norwegians feel about Trump?

I saw a recent pic of the band and one of the other members is looking stunning these days.

R19 MH is a pro lifer & very far right religious person so that is why folks are saying he's a Trumper.

The overturning of Roe probably gave him a hardon & since Trumpy put 3 of the judges on the court...

He isn’t American. He doesn’t live in America. He can’t vote here. Get over it. R21. Get a hobby.

Voting isn't everything R22.

A bigot is a bigot.

Folks like you said the same thing about Nazi Germany.

R23 GROW. UP.

Norwegian wood?

Why all the tiny nip hate?

R19 "wondering how Norwegians feel about Trump"

Who said people were wondering how Norwegians feel about Trump?

Poor R24 thinks maturity happens when you ignore bigots & bigot admirers.

Pretty man but not "beefcake" at all.

"Its like a reverse of Pet Shop Boys Always on My Mind and Elvis."

what could this possibly mean?

Pet Shop Boy took the ballad Always on My Mind made famous by Elvis (even if it had first recorded by Brenda Lee, and first released by Gwen McCrae) and turned it into a synth pop song.

A-ha had originally recorded Take on Me as a synth pop song and, as shown in the linked recording, turned it into a slow ballad - going the reverse direction.

Acoustic covers are nothing new or unheard of

Obviously.

Exhausting.

I never heard anything from him in terms of political agenda. So just because an r7 says something without backing it up, I have no problem ignoring the post. With five kids from three women, I don't have a problem believing that abortions are not his first choice though.

There's a 2019 interview with Magne Furuholmen, keyboardist for A-Ha, where he says, "The fact that A-ha has never been a protest band is because we three were politically very far apart from each other. My heart has always been on the left, Morten was the conservative. Without speaking so much about it, we all felt that A-Ha was not a stage for pushing politics."

Furuholmen characterizing Harket as "conservative" should probably be understood in terms of Norwegian political views (R22's observation is correct); by our standards, their 'conservative party' is quite liberal on social issues. Socks R7 and R21/R23 are just trying to generate outrage. They sound like Anscher.

That’s why I don’t understand why anyone is speaking about politics here. He’s never ever been politically outspoken. Who cares?

Any cock?

6 kids made with three different women. One assumes he has a cock and probably a good one.

He probably has one, yes 🙄

R39 shut up tartface

Phenomenally good looking

R35 Outrage? Morty is an outspoken pro-lifer & wants the gov. to control women's bodies but it seems like his penis could use some government control as well from what was posted above. I guess the other blond member is in the middle politically from the sounds of things.

If you think there aren't any pro-lifers in Europe who'll try to throw their weight around politically then I'll sell you some nice land around the Everglades that you can build a house on. Many of them are against LGBTs from adopting so they have that going from them for awhile there.

Also the band does push some politics as several of their tunes are environmental in nature so there is that soapbox they all stand on. Lesbian drummer Gina Schock (from the Go-Go's) did some time with the group back in the 80s but I guess they could care less if she had equal rights in so many nations around the world. The band is all about their paychecks & their rights it seems.

HE IS NOT EVEN AMERICAN

^ THIS IS AN INTERNATIONAL SITE!!!

R44 yes, RETARD, but you’re linking American politics to him when he probably doesn’t give a shit about our politics.

"probably doesn't"

In other words you don't know know what you're really talking about RETARD.

R42 says "so many nations around the world" right there at the end.

R43's warped brain translates all of that to just AMERICA.

R46 buddy. YOU don’t know what you’re talking about. Go get an education. Only uneducated people sit around worrying about whether a pop star from Norway likes Trump or not.

R43 Grow up

Lutefisk.

Oh yes.

Maybe you sad old bloated GenXers regret it now, I imagine.
