He just is though! Flicked over to the greatest 80s songs programme and was reminded anew how perfect he was/is!

I was completely obsessed for a time as a 13 yr old. Despite that I still thought he was a bit odd at the time. Going on about orchids and the priesthood in Smash Hits interviews. I'd be fine with the orchid obsession now though. Grin

I saw them quite recently. They must the fonts of eternal youth in their back gardens - they looked fantastic.

Lesina · 31/12/2020 22:28

He was as boring as fuck though. Saw an interview with him a year or so back. Utter yawnsville...

SaintGutFree · 31/12/2020 22:30

I'd imagine he has never had to stretch his personality too much as women melt at his feet wherever he goesGrin

Nope. He's got a really weird mouth.

Vinorosso74 · 31/12/2020 22:32

Ed Miliband in 80s boy band shock!

Vinorosso74 · 31/12/2020 22:33

That is the Sun headline

LyndaSnellsSniff · 31/12/2020 22:33

...my brother-in-law looks a bit like Pal...

Bearnecessity · 31/12/2020 22:33

Hang on...since when was Ed Milliband in Aha?

Keane...no comparison....

Agree Saint Gut....beautiful lines...

Boring...how very dare you...they were innovative, ground-breaking in their day..

Oversize · 31/12/2020 22:33

Just googled to check as it's been a while...yep, looks like it belongs on someone else's face😆

SaintGutFree · 31/12/2020 22:34

...Pal also looks like Jasper Carrot.

domesticslattern - I had that picture on my wall. Oh I loved Morten SO much. I was totally going to marry him - you know when you’re a teenager and you really believe that you will?!

I think my favourite song was Manhattan Skyline.

bettyshotspot · 31/12/2020 22:41

Yep, Morten was one of my crushes along with Nuno Bettencourt, saw Extreme live and my god, he was gorgeous

domesticslattern · 31/12/2020 22:42

I had that picture on my wall too. It was torn out of Smash Hits. Used to kiss it good night. You would have had to fight me for him!
Would put it up again now frankly but DH might have something to say about it. Hmm
I love the acoustic version of Take on Me. Makes me cry for some reason.
Thankyou for cheering my evening by starting this thread OP.

SaintGutFree · 31/12/2020 22:42

Ah Nuno Blush. If you mention a counter recommendation please add photos!

Seen a-ha live a few times. Met the band too. Even Morten. 😁

ghislaine · 31/12/2020 22:46

It was always Green from Scritti Politti for me. I mean, just look at that face. Look at it.

Spill!! Was he boring or could you not hear over his cheekbones?

Brizzle1991 · 31/12/2020 22:48

SaintGutFree · 31/12/2020 22:48

Santaisonhiswaytoday · 31/12/2020 22:49

Omg always fancied Morten ! Gorgeous!

ElfIsAnAss · 31/12/2020 22:50

He's very quiet...pretty much didn't say a word. Happy to pose for pics and sign stuff tho! In real life he's very....pretty...doesn't look real! 😆 But he's lovely. Magne was always my favourite! Met him twice.
