The Video A-ha in Space

Directed by Philipp Stölzl
This video was filmed in an abandoned mine in Prague, Czech Republic.
The suits worn by A-ha in this video were reproductions of real lunar suits. They had been originally used in the movie "Apollo 13."
The theme of this video is based in reality; Paul and Magne have always complained that Morten is late to every meeting and concert and interview. In this video they thought it would be fun to leave him behind.
For the "Minor Earth | Major Tour" this was the first song on the setlist.
