Morten Harket: most beautiful man in the world!

[SaintGutFree]

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

@Sparklingbrook

Although MH was ok looking, he cannot be the most beautiful man in the world because-

a) Rob Lowe
b) John Taylor

YES

Gorgeous man but I would only want to look at him as he doesn't say much

Saw aha a couple of years ago and he looked amazing although Mags did all the audience interaction

Nick Hayward was another one. My first real hot fancy

@Rockbird

Don't google Nuno Bettencourt now. I'm still traumatised. He was beautiful.

If I couldn't have Morten then Nuno would be a fine substitute. He has aged beautifully 😍

Thankyou for bringing that Rob Lowe picture into my life.
Happy new year indeed.

Just off to watch Pretty In Pink RIGHT NOW..., “ what about prom, Blain, what about PROM” 🤷‍♀️😭

I saw A-ha play live in March. They were amazing and Mortern is still as gorgeous as ever!!



Why can't I post pics/gifs?! Argh!

Not St Elmo’s?

‘KEVIN I BROKE YOUR SHOWER!!’

Oooh, I loved him. Away to google him as an older man.

Judd Nelson was so fucking sexy in St Elmo's Fire

Actually no he wasn't, he was (problematically) in The Breakfast Club, he was semi sexy in St Elmo's but ultimately a douche (as they all were)

@bettyshotspot I saw extreme live in 1992. I was 15 and totally obsessed with Gary Cherone. I liked Nuno too but Gary was my biggest teenage crush ever. The day I saw them was the most exciting thing ever. I wish I could bring those days, when I look back it is all so intense and vivid, unlike my life now .

May I also offer up for consideration Kiefer Sutherland in Lost Boys. What a film.

I've been known to watch clips of the Norwegian Voice (which I obviously don't understand a blinking word) just to be able to gaze upon the ageing magnificently Morten sitting thoughtfully in his chair. Swoon.

@DrCoconut - I also saw Extreme in 1992. I was 16. Nuno for me. You are so right about the intensity of rock concerts in your teens. It really was living, wasn't it?

It was.

I saw A-ha in concert last year and had tickets for this November which had been postponed until May. He is just gorgeous!!

Oooh : (

Breakfast Club and Pretty in Pink. Haven't watched them in years, great films except iirc both end up with young women changing themselves to suit a bloke and seeing their choices as limited between bloke a or b

CHRIST MY EYES!! On TOTP and watching Robson and Jerome - awful! (Knowing full well as a soldier soldier fan, I loved them at the time )

@TomorrowIsAnotherDae

Showing my age here, but when I was 5 yrs old I watched jailhouse rock and decided with some certainty that I would marry Elvis...

He was such a beautiful man. I don't get the Morten love, his eyes are too small and squinty. Sorry! As for a youngTony Hadley, yes please.

Surely it has to be David Sylvian.

@Firepitnights

My very first concert was to see A-ha back in the 80’s. At the time I was working in a hotel and the following day I took a room service order to a suite. The door was opened and there was the whole band. Yes - great cheek bones!!!! Definitely!!!

Wasn't the Henry VII was it? They were staying there before doing Mike Reid's Saturday morning show and I was running the bar.

It was always Mags for me (and funnily enough Howard Donald of all the TT boys) I obviously had an eye for the ones who would age well

This already gets my vote for thread of the year ;)
Thanks OP!
