“I’m In”: A-ha release first single from their upcoming album “True North”

Morten Harket, Magne Furuholmen and Paul Waaktaar-Savoy – better known as the Norwegian pop rock trio A-ha – have released their new single “I’m In“, along with a music video. You can check out the video below:

The music video was directed by Stian Andersen.

Magne Furuholmen, who wrote “I’m In“, comments on the band’s latest single release as follows:

“‘I’m In’ is a song about total commitment and a show of support for someone who is troubled. Real commitment is a leap of faith. Everyone knows how difficult it can be to offer commitment and support unconditionally, but this is what it takes to make anything worthwhile happen; love, friendship, change, self-improvement, careers, a better world. Easier said than done of course, but it begins with an attitude, then uttering the words. After this it is all hard work to realize whatever potential your commitment has in the world. without allowing ourselves this attitude everything just gets bogged down with conflicting thoughts, doubts and fear. Just say it: I’m in.”

– Magne Furuholmen

“I’m In” is the first single from A-ha‘s upcoming 11th studio album “True North” which will be released on 21 October 2022 via Sony Music, along with a film. “True North” was recorded in November 2021 with the Norwegian Arctic Philharmonic Orchestra in Bodø, a city in Northern Norway which is located 90 km above the Arctic Circle.
