Overlooked masterpiece
Rodrigo_Amaro22 July 2023
If "Take On Me" is considered the video masterpiece from A-Ha due to its advanced special effects and genial storyline revolving an HQ hero that invites a female reader to join in countless adventures inside the comic, "Manhattan Skyline" can get a most deserved 2nd place as one of the most memorable videos from the group. Excellent and impressive visuals present the group in countless manners as if being part of a newspaper. They appear on connect-the-dots style, inside articles, on crosswords and etc, and the whole presentation is amazingly presented and fascinating to watch, even today several decades later.

This is the kind of video that makes you keep coming back just to watch the details of everything that's shown, plus the song is pretty interesting with its progression that changes from a quiet ballad to a more pop/rock beat. Simply great. 10/10.
