The second Single from the debut full-length studio album, "Hunting High And Low", by legendary Norwegian Synth-Pop band.
The original version of the song, recorded in 1984 and released in October of that year, was produced by Tony Mansfield and remixed by John Ratcliff. This one is re-recorded version 1985, produced by Alan Tarney for the band's debut studio album, which becames international hit. The recording combines Synth-Pop with a varied instrumentation, including acoustic guitars, keyboards, and drums.
The original 1984 version "Take On Me" failed to chart in the United Kingdom, as did the second version in the first of its two 1985 releases. The second of those 1985 releases charted in September 1985, reaching number two on the UK Singles Chart in October. In the United States in October 1985, the single topped Billboard's Hot 100, bolstered by the wide exposure on MTV of director Steve Barron's innovative music video featuring the band in a live-action pencil-sketch animation sequence. The video won six awards and was nominated for two others at the 1986 MTV Video Music Awards.
