I promised you more a-ha related videos this week and this won’t be the last.
This collaboration between a-ha guitarist and songwriter Pal Waaktaar-Savoy and Jimmy Gnecco has understandable echoes of the Norwegian supergroup – especially that minor chord into the chorus.
“Weathervane” is the title track from the forthcoming movie Headhunters, based on the book by the internationally known Norwegian author Jo Nesbø.
The piano intro and outro are a cute addition and it’s a decent enough song which has really been growing on me: Gnecco’s voice can’t compete with Morten, but then it isn’t an a-ha song, so that’s actually ok.
