(1) Aqua is a Danish-Norwegian dance-pop group, best known for their 1997 breakthrough single Barbie Girl. Initially forming as Joyspeed in 1989, the band was renamed Aqua in 1994 and achieved huge success across the globe in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The group managed to top the UK Singles Chart with their first three singles. The group released two albums: Aquarium in 1997 and Aquarius in 2000, before splitting up in July 2001. The group sold an estimated 33 million albums and singles, making them the most successful Danish band ever and the second most successful Norwegian band.
In their prime, Aqua's singles managed to chart top ten in a number of countries where European pop acts would not normally succeed, including the United States, Australia, and Japan. The group also caused controversy with the double entendres in their Barbie Girl single, with the Barbie doll makers Mattel filing a lawsuit against the group. The lawsuit was finally dismissed by a judge in 2002, who ruled "The parties are advised to chill".
The band's members are vocalists Lene Nystrøm Rasted (from Norway) and Rene Dif, keyboardist Søren Rasted, and guitarist Claus Norreen. During their split, Nystrøm, Dif and Rasted have all achieved solo chart success, and Norreen has continued in the music industry remixing other artists' material.
At a press event on Friday, October 26, 2007, the group announced a 25-concert reunion tour and a new greatest hits album. The tour was to have commenced in the summer of 2008. Offers were received by the record company from locations in Denmark, Canada, United States & U.K. Aqua finally performed 8 concerts around Denmark as part of the "Grøn koncert" festival. They released their second greatest hits album on 15 June 2009, which includes 16 old remastered tracks and three new songs: My Mamma Said, Live Fast, Die Young and their first single in 8 years, Back to the 80s which was released in Denmark on 25 May 2009. "Back To The 80's was the only single to have success outside of their home countries, it reached the top 20 in France. The greatest hits CD was released in North America and many European countries on 22 September 2009 and in the UK on 29 September 2009.
Lene told in an interview that the new album is scheduled for Spring 2011. The band confirmed on their official Facebook page that they are currently working in the studio. The band released their new single How R U Doin? on 14 March 2011 and a preview of the song was released on 10 March 2011 on the groups official facebook page. The song was either only released digitally outside of their country, or it achieved no sucess. Later singles just before the album was released included Like A Robot, and Playmate To Jesus. However those were only to their home country, and only had moderate to minor success even there. Like A Robot was just outside the top 10, and Playmate To Jesus was just outside the top 20 in Denmark. The album, Megalomania was finally released in October 2011 in their home countries. Like A Robot was later planned to be released as a single preceding the album as an international single, however those plans never materialized.
(2) Aqua originated from Kassel, Germany and came together in 1972 from members of the groups Agatha (ex-Inaction) and Praeludium Magnum.They only released a single and an album, both quite rare, but Garden of Delights' eponymous archival compilation offers a nice overview of their long career.First line-up included Martin Ulrich on guitar/backing vocals, Klaus Borucki on lead vocals, Martin Großkurth on keyboards, Georg Röber on bass and Bernd Billhardt (ex-Wyoming) on drums.
At the very early stages of their career, Aqua recorded regularly tracks in their rehearsal room on a 4-track Revox tape recorded.Four of them, all previously unreleased, document the band's early sound, which was a jamming Psych/Prog Rock with light Classical influences, somewhere between TYBURN TALL, THRICE MICE and SIXTY-NINE, performed heavily on Hammond organ and scratching electric guitars, featuring extended instrumental parts and some virtuosic deliveries on keyboards.The sound is pretty much dated with an average recording quality, yet the music is played with passion and energy.Nothing new or extraordinary, just decent material of long, emphatic songs with strong organ pounds and psychedelic tunes around.
Five years later, with a short break inbetween, Aqua would continue with a different line-up.Ulrich and Borucki were now accompanied by Jorg Rainer Wiesner on keyboards, Wolfgang Eckhardt on bass and Roy Kaleve on drums.They managed to record their first single at Panne & Paulsen Studios in Frankfurt, released in 1978.Forget about the psychedelic side of Aqua, as the band had turned into a much more Melodic Rock act with only some old-fashioned organ lines recalling their past.Sweet vocal lines, deep melodies and some Hard Rock/AOR vibes with synths in evidence combine for Aqua's new style, which was quite commercial, but also quite decent for what it was.
After some decent airplay, more line-up changes followed.Borucki left and he was replaced by new singer Mike Fajgel, while new bassist Wolfgang Ide was introduced in the place of Wolfgang Eckhardt.With a couple of guest musicians, Aqua eventually recorded their debut ''Sexy Boy?'' in 1980, again at Panne Studios, distributed in about 1000 copies.Two tracks are featured in this compilation and apparently Aqua's style was heavily influenced by the 80's without any traces of the band's past and a very melodious sound akin to ANYONE'S DAUGHTER or ROUSSEAU's most commercial moments.The music is again decent with melodic electric guitars, atmospheric keyboards and sensitive vocals, the second track ''No more love'' features also some nice electric piano, but the style is always grounded in safe fields, lacking any instrumental space for experiments.
Closing singer for the group was Matthias Reim, who spent some very limited time with them and later became a well-known Pop singer, while the story of Aqua ended in 1984 with their dissolution.
The whole history of Aqua is nicely documented in this archival work.Of minor interest for Prog fans, this one is split between early-70's Psych/Prog exercises and commercial Rock of the late-70's.Certainly closer to a collector's item.
(3) AQUA (아쿠아) is a six-member project girl group managed by KRAZY Entertainment. They debuted on November 17, 2018 with their first single "Log In". Th group was formed by gaming company Actoz Soft and they are described as Korea's first Esports girl group who will promote both as gamers and idols. The group consists of Hyerim (member of LimeSoda), Haesol (Former PRODUCE 48 contestant), Sihyeon (former PRODUCE 101 and MIXNINE contestant), Hyeonju (former MIXNINE contestant and member of OAHSIS), Sua (Former PRODUCE 101 contestant and member of OAHSIS) and Seungji (member of LimeSoda).

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On a clear blue sky,
You will act like a lover.
When the sky is gray,
And the rain comes down,
You will run for cover.
And your arm is touching me.
[Chorus]
Good morning sunshine,
You are my only light,
Lying with me by my side,
You keep me warm all day.
Just stay with me.
Good morning sunshine,
Be with me all day,
Just don't let the rain pass you by,
When it's cloudy or windy,
And the snowflakes arrive,
You somehow just make me,
Make me feel I'm alive.
When you leave my field
Then you light the stars
Fading away in horizon
There's a million streets
Leading off the night,
Waiting for sun to be risen
Feel the heat, come out of cold,
And your arm is touching me.
[Chorus]
Hold it right there,
Let me take a minute of your time,
To explain how I feel through these rhymes.
I do the best I can, and believe me if I could
I'll build you a paradise with these two hands.
The top of your skin, makes my body go numb,
I'm thinking to myself, if my dream come true,
Or is it 'cause you never give me a chance to tell you
How I feel, the moments we had were too precious to kill.
When it is cloudy or windy,
Please turn your face at me
[Chorus]
The song “Good Morning Sunshine” by Aqua is a love song that highlights the varying emotions that one feels based on the weather conditions. The lyrics discuss how the character’s feelings towards their lover are affected by the weather. When the sun is out, the character is in love and feels warm, but when it's gray and raining outside, they retract themselves and become cold. The song also talks about how the presence of a loved one can make someone feel alive and validated.
The chorus of the song expresses pure love and affection for the person, the character views the person he loves as his “only light” and someone who can keep him warm and alive in difficult situations. The song speaks of the beauty of being with someone you love, even on days with terrible weather conditions, where the snowflakes might arrive or when it's cloudy or windy.
The song is quite emotional and deeply personal, describing the extent of one's love for another person. It insists the listener on the importance of being with a person you are in love with, and how difficult it can be to live without them. This Aqua’s song is best suited for people who believe in love and the idea of spending their life with someone they love.

When the sun is up,
When the day is bright,
On a clear blue sky,
And the sky is a vibrant blue,
You will act like a lover.
You show love in every way possible.
When the sky is gray,
When the day is gloomy,
And the rain comes down,
And the raindrops are falling,
You will run for cover.
You avoid getting wet by finding shelter.
Feel the heat, come out of cold,
Experience warmth that thaws you out,
And your arm is touching me.
With your arms wrapped around me.
Good morning sunshine,
Hello morning light,
You are my only light,
You are the only brightness in my life,
Lying with me by my side,
Sleeping with me beside you,
You keep me warm all day.
You provide comfort and warmth throughout the day.
Just stay with me.
Don't leave me,
Be with me all day,
Stay with me throughout the day,
Just don't let the rain pass you by,
Don't miss the rain,
When it's cloudy or windy,
When the sky is covered in clouds or when the wind is blowing,
And the snowflakes arrive,
And the snow begins to fall,
You somehow just make me,
You have a way of making me,
Make me feel I'm alive.
Feel alive and happy.
When you leave my field
When you leave my sight,
Then you light the stars
The stars shine bright,
Fading away in horizon
Disappearing slowly into the horizon,
There's a million streets
There are numerous streets,
Leading off the night,
Going into darkness,
Waiting for sun to be risen
Praying for the sun to rise again.
Hold it right there,
Wait a minute here,
Let me take a minute of your time,
Let me have a moment of your attention,
To explain how I feel through these rhymes.
To tell you how I feel through song,
I do the best I can, and believe me if I could
I give my best effort, and if I can,
I'll build you a paradise with these two hands.
I'll make a paradise with my hands.
The top of your skin, makes my body go numb,
The touch of your skin sends chills throughout my body,
I'm thinking to myself, if my dream come true,
I'm pondering if my dreams will become reality,
Or is it 'cause you never give me a chance to tell you
Or is it because you haven't allowed me to confess my love to you,
How I feel, the moments we had were too precious to kill.
How I feel about our time together - it's too special to ruin.
When it is cloudy or windy,
When the sky is full of clouds or when the wind is blowing,
Please turn your face at me
Please look at me,

I used to listen to this on my CD player, my dad had bought it and i would always listen to it when he was driving and I’d sing for him as loud as I could from the backseat to bug my brother but mostly because my dad loved to hear me sing. I lost him almost two years ago and hadn’t listened to aqua in the longest time until my son was waking up and reminded me of this song. I really needed this today 🤍

One of the most under appreciated songs of all time. It wasn't bubblegum pop, so it wasn't taken seriously at the time, and they decided not to do an official video for it. Too bad. But it did go to #1 in Taiwan. This song is timeless now.

Que nostalgia escuchar la buena música solo los que osamos de 40 sabemos de lo bueno , aveces dan ganas de llorar y devolver el tiempo eran épocas tan lindas de adolescencia que aun que muchos en ese entonces no entendíamos inglés la música nos inspiraba y nos hacía imaginar tantas cosas lindas 🥺 el tiempo es oro y el valor de cada momento es irreversible pero el sello de cada vivencia jamás se borra del corazón hasta que empezamos a decaer por circunstancias de la vida como naturalmente está marcado 🥂👌
