A-ha is a band from Oslo, Norway who first became popular in the 80's. They released their cover of Crying in the Rain in 1990. A-ha's version was greatly admired by the Everlys who gave the band 3 Everly brothers signature guitars. And Aha's manager in the early 80's Terry Slater, played bass for the Everly brothers in the 60's. Slater also managed the Everly brothers reunion tour in 1984 when the Everlys first met the band.

The song was originally composed by Carole King with lyrics by Howard Greenfield.

“Rainy Days and Mondays” has been mentioned. Listening to it now, sounds to me almost autobiographical for Karen Carpenter even though she isn’t listed as an author/composer.

Rainy Days And Mondays
Carpenters
Talkin' to myself and feelin' old 
Sometimes I'd like to quit, nothin' ever seems to fit

Hangin' around 
nothin' to do but frown 
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

What I've got, they used to call the blues 
Nothin' is really wrong, feelin' like I don't belong

Walkin' around 
some kind of lonely clown 
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

Funny, but it seems I always wind up here with you 
Nice to know somebody loves me 
Funny, but it seems that it's the only thing to do 
Run and find the one who loves me (the one who loves me) 
What I feel has come and gone before

No need to talk it out (talk it out) 
We know what it's all about 
Hangin' around (hangin' around) 
Nothin' to do but frown 
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

Funny, but it seems that it's the only thing to do (only thing to do) 
Run and find the one who loves me 
What I feel has come and gone before

No need to talk it out (talk it out) 
We know what it's all about 
Hangin' around (hangin' around) 
Nothin' to do but frown 
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

Hangin' around (hangin' around) 
Nothin' to do but frown 
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

While we are on the subject, I have a state-related question. If a couple gets married in Arkansas and divorced in California, are they still brother and sister?

And along the same lines, what did Ilhan Omar's husband say when he found out she was cheating on him?

He said, I'M TELLING MOM!!!
