Soft Rains of Aprila-ha

A-ha – Soft Rains of April

A track included on a-ha’s second album, famous for “Take On Me.” It has the romantic synth-pop feel characteristic of their early days, but the lyrics are rather suggestive.

Even in early spring, when starting a new life can bring a lot of anxiety, a day will surely come when you feel as clear and bright as after the rain stops.

In that way, it stirs the listener’s heart and lifts their spirits.
