Morten Harket (born September 14, 1959 in Kongsberg) is the lead singer of the Norwegian pop band a-ha.

After a-ha split up in 1994, Morten pursued a solo career, in which he released three albums. Two of those albums were sung in Norwegian, but his 1995 album, Wild Seed, became more of an international success because of its English lyrics. Morten worked with Håvard Rem, a Norwegian poet, to write most of the songs. A Kind of Christmas Card and Spanish Steps were the most successful numbers. The rest were either easy, simple songs, or profound ones, like East Timor, and Brodsky Tune, which had messages in them.
