A-ha’s lead singer Morten Harket has announced his diagnosis with Parkinson’s disease.

The frontman of the Norwegian synth-pop group, known for hits including Take On Me and You Are The One, said he is having issues with his voice due to the condition, which causes parts of the brain to become progressively damaged over many years.
