Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Classic synth pop with amazing depth and heart
I picked this album up when it was fresh and new. By then, A-ha's star was somewhat already on the fade in rural Texas. Take on Me had never been especially well loved by my country music appreciating neighbors, but Hunting High and Low practically didn't leave my tape deck (!) for a year. So when Scoundrel Days came out, I saved my money and bought it as soon as I could. I was enchanted. Morten's voice, which was my main attraction to A-ha, had never sounded better. Manhattan Skyline was an ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent! Best a-ha lbum by a mile!!
Some people say that "Hunting High and Low" is better or in the same league as this masterpiece. While I agree that tunes such as Take on me, The sun always shines on TV and Love is Reason are wonderful, life-lasting songs, not everything is above great, unlike Scoundrel Days. Every single song on this album is something to be reckon with. Lately I have been discovered the nitty, gritty lyrics of I've losing you (which I thought was a love song..) and I can't help but listening to it 20-30 times a ... Read More
Rating: - MY FAVORITE ALBUM
Hi fellow music lovers,
If you guys are thinking of starting out with a-ha, this is the album to buy first or second what ever. This album IS my personal favorite album, although all albums are awesome!
Rating: - 21 Years Later!
I bought this (vinyl) album around October 1986 when I was 20, now 21 years later in 2007 it still sounds great! I was in a second-hand record shop today and there it was, the original album in pristine condition! I thought about buying it but since I already have the original album and the CD version I thought why deprive someone else of a great album, so I left the shop without it...that's how good it is! Morten, Mags and Pal, take a bow! 11/10 !
Rating: - Absolutely beautiful.
Scoundrel Days. The title says it all. It's darker and deeper, and more serious than a-ha's debut album Hunting High And Low. If you're not ready to discover something beyond happy(-ish, a lot of Hunting High and Low's songs have sad undertones in their stories), lighthearted pop music, don't go here!
If you are ready, however: GO FOR IT. This is probably one of the most amazing albums ever made. The title track starts it off with a bang: did a murder happen? Is the world ending? Maybe, ... Read More
