Howzabout an mp3 of that song of their original band which eventually metamorphosed (?) into "take on me"? Anybody?

yeah anybody?

its weird you can list the most obscure thing in here and someone has it, but if its by a band that later became huge no one ever seems to have it?

I think the band was Bridges.

I have some Bridges stuff at home. I'll post it later if no one beats me to it.

Yes, please. You Norweigan?

This topic needs a well deserved bump.

Hows about that obscure Bridges material?

Eh?
Does somebody need some persuasion?
Do I need to give somebody a foot massage?
Or some randomass italo clip?

Or freedom from my liquor-fueled posting?

OK, here's a sample of the Bridges stuff I have. It is all really quite atrocious, not only in audio quality, but in song quality. This is the best tune of the ones I have and the only one which can be called a-ha related as some of it found its way into the later a-ha tune "This Alone is Love" from the Stay On These Roads album.

wow beserker, Last Dance is...spooky, i got chills listening to it. yup, its definitely where This Alone Is Love came from

by **spacecircus** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 8:10 am

Thanks for the track! Now, does anyone out there have the vinyl version of This Alone is Love that appeared on the 12" of I've Been Losing You?

by **darwinsky** » Thu Jun 22, 2006 10:14 am

Thanks for the track Berserker. But I'd still want to hear the early version of Take on Me, of which the demo landed them the record deal with... Warner?
