Hi! How nice to hear again Forever Not Yours and Analogue! Thank you so much!
I moved to Barcelona from Bologna (Italy) only to see you. To live my 13 years’ dream. I’d like to thank you for all your songs, for all these years together and for your show (you were wonderful on stage!!!). Please give us other 25 years of your songs and shows… a little bewildered girl
Mags,
we told you at Frankfurt airport, after the Trier concert, that we will see you again in Barcelona.
We were there again … from Portugal to Catalunia.
Thanks for this spectacular concert. We will miss you guys…
One of the best nights of my life…
I moved from Portugal with my boyfriend, to see A-ha for the last time =’(
I love your music, I love A-ha forever…
Here is my video of TAKE ON ME

You will be in my heart forever and ever
Dear A-HA!
My name is Nir and I’ve been a fan of yours since your amazing “Take On Me” hit.
I came especially from Israel to Barcelona to see you guys, and fulfilled a long-going dream to see you guys “live”. It was an amazing show and I will never forget it. Seeing you “for real” was one of my life’s highlights!
Thank you for an amazing concert. I am so sad you are saying “goodbye” and wish you all the best!
Nir
First of all, Takk for 25 år med flott musikk!
I “stayed on these roads” for 25 years hopping to be able to go to one of your concerts, and finally I made it, and it was worth the wait. I travelled from Portugal to Barcelona just to see you, a dream come true! An amazing concert eventhough Morten kept forgetting some of the lyrics hehehe… once again, Takk for all den flotte musikken, tekster, melodier og stemmen som gjorde det hele kommer sammen.
All the best,
Cristina
Hi guys,
we came down with our kids from Frankfurt, Germany and it was a terrific experience. The songs has been touched our hearts. Thank you so much and we will miss you

My wife and I traveled to Barcelona from the U.S. to see our first a-ha concert. I’ve been following the band for years. I’m so tired of U.S. ethnocentrism when it comes to music. I have the same issue being a huge futbol fan too. It was a pleasure meeting so many a-ha fans that share similar music passions to mine. Thanks for a great show and for fond memories and music over the past 25 years.
And finally my last concert of my adventure in europe… it was a long journey since I leave Brazil to go to these concerts.
All I can do is, again, thanks for being part of my life. I’ll miss you very much!
God bless all of you!

It was the second time I saw you in my life, and the last…impossible, they say there´s always a third. I began studying english a long time ago because I pretended to understand your lyrics and have the possibility to speak a few words in case I meet you someday…I’ve been thinking to go to Norway for your last show but the only tickets available are for the 30th and exactly that day I have an important english exam at the school of languages!!. Well maybe is better like that, I´m from Spain and Norway in November could be freeeezing and also I can´t stand my tears just watching the butterfly butterfly’s video. Thanks for the marvellous concert in Barcelona. What a great voice!, what a great band!.Thanks Pal for your lyrics, they’ve always touched me. Many times I would like to come back to the eighties, my golden decade and one of the best things in it YOU. Be happy for the rest of your lifes, you´ve done just something unforgettable.
15oct’10 Barcelona. So hard for me and wonderful at the same time. All night was unforgettable, the quality of sound and place. At the end, Morten stopped and get out of his car and sign, ohhh…My best wishes for three. Your music inspires me for paint and makes me happy.
Petons(catalonian kisses), Ir-n.
I just can say “Great”. My third concert, by the moment (Bergen ’04, Brussels ’05), and the best till now. Great show, wonderful Morten’s voice, Magne very kind with the audience and Paul, is Paul. You have seen Spanish audience knows to give a good welcome. I only missed “Early morning” in the setlist. The story of a-ha in the screen, just super. Sad for the break but I’ll allways have your music. That will be the a-ha’s legacy. See you in Manchester, my last concert. Maybe I can see you in person. Thanks for coming to Spain. Patri.
It was an amanzing concert , we rediscovered a-ha this summer while we are sailing on the BLack Sea together with some friends and we were listening to a-ha on the boat at sunset living behind the small port of Balcik. It was was amazing to listen “Summer moved on” watching the sun going down on the top of a wave. Can sound a little bit too romantic but that was the atmosphere. So we decided to go to the Barcelona concert and it was the best concert ever for us. Amazing, amazing ! Can be real? We want to go to Oslo too to taste it once more.
Amazing concert for me . I travelled from France and the crowd in Barcelona was great. That s a reason why I wanted to go there too.
I was on 1st row , began to queue at 08:45 am lol
Here are some of my pics

An amzing venue! I was up at the front and the atmosphere was electric! It was the best birthday present ever, to travel to Barcelona from the UK to see them.
I chatted to some great Spaniards who helped make the night special.
A-Ha were great sports at the end to wear the hats!
As usual the performance by the band was faultless and will stay with me forever! xx
My comment is rather late but that wonderful concert in Sant Jordi Club is unforgettable for me!
The venue was not large & I was lucky to get in the 6th row in front of the stage. It was more than I ever hoped for and, most probably, a chance of a lifetime to see Magne, Morten and Paul so close. They were brilliant & I was completely enthralled & enjoyed every moment of the concert!
The atmosphere was great & the audience was enthusiastic & responsive: from the very 1st song everyone started to dance and sing along. We did our best singing the traditional chorus of “Hunting high and low” & “Living daylights” (prompted by Mags, the audience went wild with excitement). And there was also a spontaneous & very powerful chorus singing along to “I’ve been losing you” (one of my favorites). I’m so happy I was part of it! Among the highlights of the gig I’d also mention the sombreros (gifts from the Mexican fans) that Morten, Mags and Paul put on during “Take on me” and the final chant “Ole-ole-ole!” from the audience as the band were waving good-bye. I do hope Morten, Mags and Paul enjoyed themselves as much as we did (Looking at their happy faces I thought they really did!).
I will always cherish the memories of that fantastic night. I think I’ve never been so emotional before. Thank you very much, Magne, Morten and Paul for your wonderful music, for bringing so much joy and happiness to our lives!
Love and best wishes from Russia.
I will never forget it. The sonorous band of my life, a song behind other one, a recollection, one year, another year… Forever in my heart.
Morten, you have the best voice of live concert.
I love you.
Kisses from Valencia (Spain)
