''Minor Earth Major Sky'' (stylized as ''Minor Earth | Major Sky'') is the sixth album by Norwegian synthpop band a-ha, released on 17 July 2000 by WEA. ==Background and release== Following the release of a-ha's fifth studio album, ''Memorial Beach'' (1993) the band decided to go on a hiatus. In 1998, the band was invited to perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert. Paul Waaktaar-Savoy had written "Summer Moved On" especially for this performance.〔interview on "A-ha live at valhall homecoming" DVD, 2001〕 They also performed "The Sun Always Shines on T.V.". This performance was a-ha's comeback into the world of music and the band decided to return to the studio. Almost the entire album was remixed by producer Niven Garland at the record company's insistence to make it more radio-friendly for the band's German market. "Summer Moved On" (edit), "Minor Earth Major Sky" (remix) and "Velvet" (edit) were commercially released as singles. "I Wish I Cared" was an Internet download single, accompanied by an internet-only music video—one of the first of its kind. The song "Minor Earth Major Sky" has been covered by Closterkeller, a Polish gothic rock band. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Minor Earth Major Sky」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
