'''Morten Harket''' (born in Kongsberg - next to Oslo - on 14 September 1959) is a Norwegian musician, best known as the lead singer of the synthpop/rock band ], which released nine studio albums and topped the charts in several countries after their breakthrough hit "]" in 1985.<ref name="autogenerated1">{{cite web| url=http://www.A-ha.com/ABOUT/AHA_fullStory.aspx?PostID=158 | title=The Story So Far...

===A-ha===
|rowspan="2" valign="middle" | ]
The trio, composed of lead vocalist Harket, guitarist ] (Pål Waaktaar until his marriage in 1994), and keyboardist ], formed on 14/09/1982, and left Norway for London in order to make a career in the music business. They chose the studio of musician, producer, and soon-to-be-manager, John Ratcliff, because it had a '']'' machine. John Ratcliff introduced the boys to his manager, Terry Slater, and, after a few meetings, A-ha had two managers. Terry Slater and John Ratcliff together formed T.J. Management. Ratcliff dealt with all the technical and musical aspects; Slater was the international business manager and liaison to Warner Brothers' head office.<ref name="autogenerated1"/> The band says the name ''A-ha'' comes from a title Paul contemplated giving to a song; he was dithering between the title "A-ha" and "A-hem". Morten was looking through Paul's notebook, and came across the name, which he liked, and immediately decided that was the right name.<ref>. Official Community of A-ha</ref>

In 1984, A-ha released their first single, "]", which became a hit only on the third attempt in 1985, after it had been re-recorded and accompanied by a music video directed by ]. The single's international success helped A-ha's debut album '']'' to sell over 10&nbsp;million copies worldwide. Their second studio album was '']'', followed by '']'' and '']''. The band then issued the commercially disappointing '']'', after which the band went on hiatus.

]Harket re-joined his colleagues in A-ha in 1998 to perform at the ] concert. Since 1998, A-ha has released four studio albums and several compilations. Their eighth studio album '']'' was released in 2005, and became a big hit worldwide, achieving Platinum certification in the UK. The band's last studio album '']'' was released in the spring of 2009.

Harket held a note in the ]{{Cn|date=October 2014}} range for 20.2 seconds in A-ha's 2000 song "]", believed to be the longest note in UK chart history.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.everyhit.com/record7.html |title=Longest vocal note in a hit single |publisher=Everyhit.com }}</ref> The note held exceeds the ] note in ]' famous song ] by 2.2 seconds.

In October 2009, A-ha announced that they would disband after a farewell tour in 2010. Tickets for A-ha's final concert at the ] on 4 December 2010 sold out within 2 hours.

====As a band member====

Paul Waaktaar-Savoy describes Harket as being "totally different from me." He recalls the band's first visit to ] together, during which Harket burned all his clothes and re-fashioned his wardrobe. "He has given me self-confidence, encourages me to talk to people, not to be afraid and to use the abilities I have. Morten is actually the only one in Norway who had as much ambition as I did. I guess we both have big egos. In a way, we're each sitting in our own little world, while Mags is more down to earth. Mags often has to mediate between Morten and me... It's good that we're so different and still respect each other. The tension between us is creative."<ref name="aha">{{cite web|url=http://A-ha.com/the-band/the-story-so-far/ |title=Band website |publisher=A-ha.com }}</ref>

Magne Furuholmen describes Harket as "together". Furuholmen says Harket "believes strongly in everything he does. This goes for the band too, and it rubs off on us. He has the courage of his own convictions and cannot be shaken. He's an expert at always getting the last word, whether he's right or not. Morten is very loyal and he's fair when it comes to giving people a chance, letting them show who they are and what they're worth before judging them."<ref name="aha" />

====a-ha awarded Order of St. Olav====

===Outside of A-ha===
Before Morten joined Pal and Mags, he was the leader of a soul band called "Soldiers blue"; but earlier he was his church's chief choir. In 1993, Harket performed a cover of "]" by Crewe/Gaudio on the ] movie soundtrack in 1993.<ref></ref> After A-ha went on a hiatus in 1994, Harket pursued a solo career, and has so far released six studio albums. Two of those albums were sung in Norwegian, but his 1995 album, ''Wild Seed'', became more of an international success because of its English lyrics. Harket worked with Håvard Rem, a Norwegian poet, to write most of the songs. "A Kind of Christmas Card" and "Spanish Steps" were the most successful numbers. The rest were either easy listening songs, or more profound songs, such as "East Timor" and "Brodsky Tune" which had political messages in them.{{citation needed|date=March 2011}}

Harket has collaborated in live performances and in studio recordings with several artists. Among them, ]i rock band ] on the song "Piya", ] on "Children First". He has also worked with many other Scandinavian artists such as ], ], ], ] and ]. On A-ha recordings, Morten has sung with ] and ].

Be aware that the page may be outdated and that the user whom this page is about may have no personal affiliation with any site other than Wikipedia.

Barnstars and commendations
The Christianity Barnstar
I'm giving you this because you tend to have a level head about the JW page, and your arguments are always based on reason.

Vyselink (talk) 05:29, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
Thank you for your helpfulness in the subject of Jehovah’s Witnesses. — Mikhailov Kusserow (talk) 04:26, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
I, Mikhailov Kusserow, hereby award Jeffro77 with The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar for outstanding achievement in countering vandalism. — Mikhailov Kusserow (talk) 04:28, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
The Working Man's Barnstar
Awarded to Jeffro77 for his tireless and endless work on the laborious task of reverting the vandalism of Misplaced Pages articles. — Bryan Anderson (talk) 04:52, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
Congratulations!
Please accept this pamphlet thanking you for all the work you did in making Jehovah's Witnesses a certified "Good Article"! Your work is much appreciated.

In the spirit of celebration, you may wish to review one of the Good Article nominees that someone else nominated, as there is currently a backlog, and any help is appreciated. All the best, – Quadell 04:42, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

I have observed some remarkable contributions from this account. I am curious, why are you not an administrator. Pardon that you have struck me as the kind of editor who could be a good one, and that you seem qualified by a cursory review. You exemplify the essence of an Administrator without tools! I hope you will consider serving in the fuller capacity. My76Strat (talk) 00:07, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
The Special Barnstar
Thanks for your cooperation and patience in working on Nelson Barbour. Bbb23 (talk) 18:00, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
The Christianity Barnstar
I sincerely wish that there were something more significant I could give you for your tireless and generally thankless efforts in a lot of content related to the Jehovah's Witnesses in particular and Christianity in general, but I don't know of any. This token of esteem, however small, is more than earned. John Carter (talk) 22:37, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
It's unfortunately too rare to get congratulations in Misplaced Pages, so as I thing you deserve it, I would like to tell you how much I appreciate your efforts to keep the subjects around the Jehovah's Witnesses clean and clear. Thanks a lot for your good work on the matter! ChercheTrouve (talk) 21:07, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
