挪威流行樂團［阿哈］──新浪潮/合成流行──［Train of Thought／思路訓練］

He likes to have a morning paper crossword solved
Words go up words come down
Forwards backwards twisted round
He, he doesnt like that strange and now theres people around
Hes looking at their faces they wont stick in his mind, he

He grabs a pile of letters from a small suitcase
Disappears into an office, its another working day

And his thoughts are full of strangers
Corridors of naked lights
And his mind once full of reason
Now theres more that meets the eye
Now, a strangers face he carries with him

He likes a bit of reading on the subway home
A distant radio whistling tunes that nobody knows
He says, "Riba shurarirari"
A sudden interpretation on his train of thoughts
His Monday is a Tuesday from the weekly fall

At home a house awaits him, he unlocks the door
Thinking once there was a sea here, but there never was a door
And his thoughts are full of strangers
And his eyes too numb to see
And nothing that he knows of
And nowhere where hes been
Was never quite like this, tell

And at heart hes full of strangers
Dodging on his train of thought
Train of thought
Train of thought
Train of thought
Train of thought

影片概念是由將［Take On Me］帶入影片主流的同一製作人設計。

「Train of Thought」的黑白鏡頭和動畫實際上早於［Take On Me］單曲，

並且是［Take On Me］影片中動畫的靈感來源。

它起源於帕特森在加州藝術學院的學生電影《Commuter》，該電影後來影響一個世代 MTV 影片。
