On 2 July 2005, A-ha performed at the Berlin edition of Live 8 in front of an audience of nearly 200,000 people. They began with “Hunting High and Low”, followed by “Take On Me”, during which Morten Harket had difficulties hearing himself when his in-ear monitor failed: he requested a two-minute break, which he used to comment on the cause of Live 8. The intended two minutes became almost seven, and the third song, “Summer Moved On”, became the last of their set. Although four songs had been rehearsed, the band’s time had run out and the organisers told them to leave the stage.
