The story behind
The Blue Sky, according to DoReSol
There is something in The Blue Sky that invites you to pause. It's not just a melody, but an atmosphere that is built from the first moment. The piece, born from the mind of Pål Waaktaar, connects with a physical place, the Blue Sky Coffee Lounge in London. This reference gives it an anchor, a story behind the sound that resonates in a particular way.
This song is part of Hunting High & Low, the debut album by a-ha. It was written by Pål Waaktaar, one of the founding members, and its creation is directly linked to a specific space: the Blue Sky Coffee Lounge in London.
