The vocalist of the legendary Norwegian band A-ha, Morten Harket, suffers from Parkinson's disease. His diagnosis was announced in a statement on the band's official website.
Harket admitted that for a long time he did not want to reveal his diagnosis so as not to distract from his work. The musician has already undergone several operations and is undergoing therapy, which has side effects.
“I am trying very hard not to let my body completely shut down“, said the performer of the cult song Take on Me.
It is also reported that, against the background of treatment for a neurological disease, Morten has developed problems with his voice, which could put an end to his work.
