Talking away/I don’t know what I’m to say/I’ll say it anyway/Today isn’t my day to find you/Shying away/I’ll be coming for your love, OK?
from Take On Me lyrics by A-Ha
Lyrically a straight-forward “take (a romantic chance) on me,” this unopologetically-80’s gem cemented itself in our permanent headspace with its iconic video, timeless synth line, and impressive falsetto work in the chorus. From Family Guy to ska covers, it’s impossible to ruin this song.
