Jahn Teigen (27 September 1949 - 24 February 2020). Teigen started his career already in the late 1960s, when he released a few singles and one album with Enemies. However, his commercial break-through didn't come until the early seventies as the lead singer of the six member rock band Popol Vuh. He represented Norway in the Eurovision Song Contest three times, in 1978, 1982 and 1983 respectively, and is one of Norways most dear artist in modern times. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Jahn+Te
