Saft was a band from the Norwegian city of Bergen, formed in 1969-70, and disbanded in the spring of 1974. They've had several re-unions since then. Saft were one of the first bands in Norway to sing in nynorsk. (�Fj�svise� in 1971), and one of the first to mix hardingfiddle with rock (�Halling� with Sigbj�rn Berntoft Osa in 1973). Saft also wrote musical history when they won �Europatoppen� with the song �People In Motion� in November 1971.
Their debutalbum �Saft� was the first of three major albums the band recorded. The musical was unusually varied, ranging from progressive rock, Norwegian middle-age ballads, classical music and heavy metal. The best known song from the album is �All The Time�. Ove Thue had based the lyrics around a slogan originating from the USA during the Vietnam war: �Fighting for freedom is like fucking for virginity�. This was used as the chorus, which too proved too much for the BBC. The powerful radiochannel refused to play the album when it was send in as a Norwegian contribution to Europatoppen in 1971. Saft replied by printing �Censored by BBC� on the cover to the single � which showed a photograph of a naked Ove Thue. The record was eventually played, but the naughty words were bleeped out.
