Hunting High And Low
A-Ha · Hunting High And Low
And within the reach of my hands
She sounds asleep and she's sweeter now
Than the wildest dream could have seen her
And I Watch her slipping away
But I know I'll be hunting high and low
High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
Hunting high and low
High
There's no end to lengths I'll go
To find her again
Upon this my dreams are depending
Through the dark
I sense the pounding of her heart
Next to mine
She's the sweetest love I could find
So I guess I'll be hunting high and low
High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
High and Low
High
Do you know what it means to love you...
I'm hunting high and low
And now she's telling me she's got to
go away
I'll always be hunting high and low
Only for you
Watch me tearing myself to pieces
Hunting high and low
High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
heeey, for you I'll be hunting high and
low
Hunting High And Low
Hunting High And Low serves as the title track for A-Ha's debut album, released in 1985. The song exemplifies the band's signature synth-pop sound, characterized by dramatic production and Morten Harket's distinctive falsetto vocals. While the group achieved massive international fame with their hit Take On Me, this track offers a deeper exploration of the atmospheric textures that defined their early work. The recording captures the tension and emotional urgency typical of the mid-eighties new wave era. As a cornerstone of their discography, it highlights the group's ability to blend melancholic melodies with driving electronic rhythms. The album established A-Ha as a significant force in European pop music, paving the way for their enduring legacy and subsequent commercial success across multiple decades.
