This DVD is a collection of the band's earlier hits. A-HA changed their sound to use less keyboards and more piano and acoustic guitar in the 90's. There are a couple of live videos included. The band sound amazing. The lead singer sounds just as good live as he does in the studio. In fact, he can hold long notes at various ranges!!
Don't miss the video collection of this very talented band.
I give Headlines and Deadlines a 5 star rating.

Please be sure that you have a multi region player for this A-HA DVD.

Awesome collection, even though I can just play it in my computer. I knew that before I bought it so no complaints there. I love a-ha that much it didn't bother me. But now since this one has come out and I watched it through, I am very much wanting the rest to be put out on dvd. And if so, PLEASE put it out in All Regions Code, like their Ending on A High Note Concert on dvd. That was awesome too.

Note that this is a PAL disc and NOT the US region code, so it won't play in a standard US DVD player. But it is a great DVD of their videos that was released in 1991 (they've had more videos since then). I did notice that "I've Been Losing You" is a live TV performance - not the video shown on TV in the US in the '80s - but it's so great to have other videos like "Train Of Thought" on DVD that it gets 5 stars regardless.

a-ha is the best group of music for me, i like all the videoclip and his albums.

a-ha for more of two decade make great music don't get me wrong with this collection
i'm don't know why don't make us release only available in region pal,that only way of see this video is if you have multi region dvd or watch in the computer
