Morten Harket, frontman of a-ha, has shared his Parkinson's disease diagnosis in an interview. After undergoing advanced brain surgery, he has a device to help regulate symptoms, but the condition still affects his voice and energy. Harket expresses frustration over his singing ability, stating that medication complicates his vocal issues. Despite these challenges, he remains hopeful, drawing inspiration from his father's acceptance of life's changes. He continues to work on music he believes in, showcasing resilience in the face of his illness.
I don't feel like singing, and for me that's a sign. I'm broadminded in terms of what I think works; I don't expect to be able to achieve full technical control.
When we tune the frequencies and direction of the electrodes, it is also able to affect the region of the voice, but we're not yet able to capture and control it.
With time I've taken to heart my 94-year-old father's attitude to the way the organism gradually surrenders: 'I use whatever works.'
For a few years now I've been working on songs that I've got great belief in, and I feel the lyrics, especially.
