A-Ha Lifelines CD

Two CDs. Digitally remastered and expanded edition contains the remastered original album with bonus tracks and a second 19-track CD of early versions, demos and songs that did not make it to the final album. Lifelines, their 2002 album, proved they were back and brilliant as ever, if not even better. Time had moved on, things had grown: Magne Furuholmen was working with visual arts as well as music, P?l Waaktaar-Savoy's Band Savoy had released their fourth album Reasons to Stay Indoors (2001), and Morten Harket had developed a successful solo career and had become a songwriter on his own. "Morten had made a move to suggest we should write together," reveals Magne. "That was the beginning of a new kind of partnership." For Lifelines, each band member contributed his personal compositions to the album, which finally was produced by six different producers including Stephen Hague, Clive Langer, Alan Winstanley and Martin Landquist. Anneli Drecker gave her beautiful voice to some of the songs. As their most varied, versatile and multicolored album, Lifelines gained international critical respect and went #1 in Germany.
