He is, by no stretch of the imagination, Rock and/or Roll (maybe if there was a "one hit wonder hall of fame")

Posted by toyologist on Thursday, 10.4.07 @ 16:21pm

You forgot that Falco wrote "Der Kommissar" and had another hit of his own with "Vienna Calling." "Der Kommissar" was the only hit for the British band After The Fire (which included former Yes guitarist Peter Banks)

Posted by Aaron O'Donnell on Tuesday, 03.18.08 @ 08:16am

Just because he hasn't been famous in america, doesn't mean that he did not have a big influence on music. In Europe and Asia he's been one of the best selling artists of the 1980's and for sure he has been one of the most talented at this time.

That's why I've been voting Yes.

Posted by **** Hall Of "Fame" on Monday, 12.22.08 @ 02:32am

Johann Hölzel, better known by his stage name Falco, was an Austrian, pop and rock musician and had four #1 Hits - "Der Kommissar", "Rock Me Amadeus", "Jeanny", and "Coming Home (Jeanny Part 2)". With "Rock Me Amadeus" he is the first and so far only artist to score a #1 Hit in the U.S. with a German language song. His albums and singles have sold about 80 million copies worldwide.
Falco must be inducted into the Hall of Fame!

"In Europa und Asien ist er heute noch ein gefeierter Pop-Superstar, obwohl er schon Jahre tot ist; seine Musik ist und bleibt einzigartig. Durch sein Musikalisches Werk hat Falco es geschafft, ewig zu leben!"

Posted by Robert B on Thursday, 12.31.09 @ 09:33am

"Rock Me Amadaeus" was in English... and I believe you're thinking of "99 Luftballoons" as that #1 song... that was by Nena, not Falco.

Posted by Philip on Thursday, 12.31.09 @ 11:23am

Falco is unique. I vote YESSSS !

Greetings to all European Fans!!

Falco hatte immer schon 2 Seiten:

- Kunstfigur Falco: neurotisch, exzessiv, abgehoben - einer, der selbst auf Kollegen oft präpotent und unnahbar wirkte.

- Und das des privaten Hans Hölzel: sensibel, verletzlich, liebenswert

Es ist unumstritten, dass Falco ein einzigartiger Popstar ist!

Posted by Reinhard Kranz on Monday, 01.4.10 @ 11:35am

Il a une voix hypnotique. Ne parlons pas de son? sourire et et de son regard ravageur. Merci Falco de nous avoir laissé ce bel héritage de mélodies.

Il est une légende !!!

Als ich Falco mit seiner roten Uniformjacke das erste mal im Tv performen sah, da dachte ich mir "DAS IST EIN POPSTAR".
Das war das Lied Sound of Musik - Falco ist so cool, unnahbar und sexy, dass er jeden anderen Popstar blass aussehen lässt.

I agree that he is (was) unique. The problem is, of the above songs, the vast majority have only heard of the first two (if that many). Not exactly a one-hit wonder, but close enough.

Posted by Joe on Saturday, 01.9.10 @ 17:41pm

Following his breakthrough hit single "Don't turn around, the Commissar's in town" and the overwhelming success of "Come on and Rock me Amadeus," the first German language song ever to hit number one on the US Billboard Charts in March 1986, he proceeded with the alienation of empty notions by filling them with new life. In 1986 he used the Trapp family musical "The Sound of Music" for a song title, shortly followed in 1988 by the use of the Strauss-operetta "Wiener Blut (Viennese Blood)" for his own song composition. One of Falco's trademarks was his English-German-Viennese word mix. He had been ahead of his time as one of the first rappers, although some would call him stutterer instead. His arrogance was legendary!

With worldwide sales of over 80 million records in total, Falco would become the biggest-selling Austrian pop musician of all time. As one of his most quoted song lyrics puts it: "What's typical about me is, I'm untypical by all means."

I think Falco ist the European "King of Pop"

Rock Me Amadeus（「ロック・ミー・アマデウス」）は発売と同時にオーストリアでＮｏ．１になり、アルバム『Falco 3』、続くシングルの「Vienna calling」（「ウィーン・コーリング」）、もオーストリアを始めヨーロッパ各地でヒットした。そして、８６年の３月、アメリカでもリリースされた「アマデウス」は全米チャートで４週間連続トップを独走した。英語圏以外の出身アーティストによる外国語の歌が全米チャートで１位になったのは坂本九以来、史上２人目である。アルバム『Falco 3』も全米チャートで３位にランクされた。また、同年、WEA移籍後に発表された４作目のアルバム『Emotional』（「エモーショナル」）のリリースに伴い、ワールドツアーも行われた。８６年１２月にはツアーのために初来日を果たした。

８６年のファルコの来日公演、実は私は観に行っているのです（ちなみに私が観たのは福岡公演）。しかも、会場の入りがいまひとつだったので、前の方の結構いい席で観る事ができました。もう、昔の話なので、当時の覚え書きや、来日当時の資料の助けを借りながら記憶を辿ってみることにします。

We love Falco !!

FALCO UNICO!! R.I.P

Posted by Liv on Wednesday, 01.13.10 @ 10:26am

Falcos musik war schon immer weit seiner Zeit voraus. Ich bin mir sicher wenn Falco damals den entschluss gefasst hätte nach Los Angeles zu ziehen, dann würden ihn die Amerikaner vergöttern. Für amerikanische verhältnisse hat er zu viel "Deutsch" gesungen, aber wie er einst sagte "entweder so, oder gar nicht!"

Würde Falco heute noch leben würde er vor 200,000 Leuten in Stadien spielen, weltweit. Was für Musik.

Mit ihm starb einer der größten Popstars den wie Welt hatte.

Jeder, der Falco nur ein bisschen kennt muss hier unweigerlich "YES" voten.

Falco, we´ll never forget you. R.I.P.
Your German Fans.

Posted by Theodor Gross on Wednesday, 01.13.10 @ 10:35am

Ich habe Falco immer bewundert wie er auf andere Menschen wirkte. Er hatte eine gewisse arroganz an sich aber das zu 100% nicht negativ - er stand immer irgendwie über den dingen. Selbst für Musikerkollegen wirkte er oft unnahbar.

Rein musikalisch finde ich das er im grunde seit den frühen 80ern einen gewissen Stil beibehalten hat - für mich war es schon immer unverständlich dass er in den 90ern nicht mehr so erfolgreich war wie in den 80ern. Seine Musik übertrifft einfach alles. Da könnten sich die aktuellen sogenannten "Popstars" mal n scheibchen abschneiden.

Falco is definitive unique !!

Posted by Stefan Wein on Thursday, 01.14.10 @ 09:36am

Falco was a great artist!
His music was huge in the North America as well as South America.

I like "Sound of Musik", "Emotional" and "Junge Roemer" ... and "Vienna Calling" ...and and and :-))
Super talented - he will be so missed!!!!!!!!!!!!

Falco, i love you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Mandy Lo. on Thursday, 01.14.10 @ 09:55am

@ Philip: nur weil im Lied "Rock me Amadeu" die englischen Wörter "Come on Rock me" vorkommen, ist das lied noch lange nicht in englisch!!!
Auch ist der Name Amadeus kein englischer, er leitet sich vom Deutschen Namen Gottlieb ab (belehre ich euch hiermit ;-) ).

Rock me Amadeus ist offiziell der erste Deutsch sprachige song der in den Billboard Charts ein Nummer 1 Hit war - Falco schrieb damit Popgeschichte.

Falco is amazing! Most of his songs were tbh. I wish they'd have his cds here. Ditto with any books/documentaries that were made about Falco. Not saying he has millions of fans in America but I'm sure he has enough fans to have this stuff here.

I love him - he is amazing...

Posted by J. on Saturday, 01.16.10 @ 11:03am

@ Monika: Nur weil das Lied oft sang "Amadaeus", und "Amadaeus" eine deutsche Name ist, dass das Lied eine "deutsches Lied" nicht macht. Amadaeus is eine Name. Wir nennen ihn nicht die englische Meinung der Name "Amadaeus" (auch, glaube ich, es gibt keine englische Meinung der Name "Amadaeus"), aber das macht nicht das ganzes Lied "deutsches Lied". Die Geschichte der Leben des Mozarts is auch auf Englisch. Nur die Name "Amadaeus" ist in dem ganzem Lied auf Deutsch.

Vielleicht gibt es eine andere Lied (version?)... eine auf English fuer die Vereinigten Staaten und eine auf Deutsch fuer Europa. In der Vereinigten Staaten, nur Amadaeus is auf Deutsch. Alle sonst sind auf Englisch.

Auch, entschuldigen Sie mir mein Deutsch. Ich habe kein Deutsch seit achte Jahre studiert, und ich habe nur halb, was Sie sagen, verstanden.

Wir vermissen ihn - er hinterließ in der deutschen Popwelt eine große lücke.

Posted by Daniel Maier on Wednesday, 01.27.10 @ 10:20am

Falco war einer der besten Musiker im Deutschsprachigen Raum, ein wahres Genie was Songwriting und Komposition anging. Seine Musik war abwechslungsreich, voller versteckter Botschaften und machte ihn unsterblich. Kein anderer Musiker heutzutage (jedenfalls aus Deutschland und Österreich) kommt an ihn heran, mit Falco verlor die Musikindustrie einen begnadeten Künstler und ich erwische mich manchmal, wie ich darüber nachdenke, was für geniale Songs er noch gemacht hätte... WE MISS YOU FALCO!

Well, he died recently. Anyway, I'd like to know what the foreign language posts say. Probably about the same as what the Perryphiles say, but I'd still like an accurate translation.

Falco was killed in a car accident in February, 1998. He was an interesting character....

Posted by Gitarzan on Friday, 01.29.10 @ 17:35pm

I like "Vienna Calling" and "Out of the dark".

I can't believe that more people (americans specifically) don't know who Falco was...

easily top ten artists of the 80's

its too bad that most of his american exposure was through crappy and usually nonsensical translations of his original tunes.

Posted by Ken on Sunday, 01.31.10 @ 04:31am

Hi!

Ich bin Pilot aus Deutschland und großer Falco Fan. Ich war schon immer überrascht, dass es in Amerika nicht die tollen Falco merchandise Produkte gibt wie hier bei uns in Deutschland. Keine Bücher von Falco, keine DVD´s und nur wenig an Cd´s. Ich bin überzeugt, würde man mehr Marketing betreiben wäre Falco in Amerika ein großer Held, der Madonna & Co locker in den Schatten stellen würde.
Das hätte man freilich zu lebzeiten Falcos machen müssen - schlechtes Management - jedenfalls ist seine Musik einzigartig und unsterblich, ich höre ihn immer wieder gerne.
Ich weis nicht ob es zufall ist oder nicht, aber immer wenn ich bei New York lande und mit dem Taxi zu meinem Hotel fahre höre ich immer "Rock me Amadeus" im Radio trellern - finde ich immer genial!!

Greetings

Posted by Robert on Sunday, 01.31.10 @ 06:32am

Falco - Neo Nothing

Ich sprech mich aus dafür -
Nimm die Luft weg und flieg durch die Tür
Was will mein Radar blos von Dir?

Am Screen erscheint nur schwer -
Die Minusdichte bedaure ich sehr
Hof' das Orientierungsfeuer her

Du meinst es wäre hier?
Im Overground ist kein Platz dafür
Das heisst: Kommando back zu Dir

Don't you know
It's the "NOTHING" I won't let you go
The "NEO" is a sample of your soul
Wir überholen und längst wieder
sind "POST OF ALL"

Du - den Klang der Farbe kennst nur Du
Colours folding all over you
'Cause you turn the black into the blue

Dann - fällt die Nummer aus der Wand
Fällt und liegt fest in deiner Hand
Wer ist die Schönste im ganzen Land?

Don't you know
It's the "NOTHING" I won't let you go
The "NEO" is a sample of your soul
Wir überholen und längst wieder
sind "POST OF ALL"

My theory is that it all has to do w/the climate changes around the world. As more people have been snowed in due to these changes, they have more time to ponder artists like Falco.

For instance, here in Philadelphia we have had close to 70 inches of snow this winter. The city is in a state of emergency, the National Guard has been called in, & I'm sitting here commenting on Falco.

And so I say to one & all, Rock Me Amadeus.

Hallo / hi to everyone.

Hier kurz eine mögliche erklärung warum Falco plötzlich wieder in allermunde ist. Vor kurzen wurden verloren geglaubte Songs von Falco gefunden und diese veröffentlicht. Darunter auch der No.1 Hit "The Spirit never dies".

Falco has actually a no.1 hit in Austria - "The spirit never dies"

That is awesome!!

Posted by Gerhard Herrers on Friday, 02.12.10 @ 11:09am

Falco war schon immer seiner Zeit voraus; einerseits war das "Pech" für ihn, denn er hätte zu lebzeiten viel mehr Tonträger verkaufen können, andererseits machte ihn dieser umstand zur legende. Erst nach seinem Tode erkannte man sein Genie und schlagartig verspürte man wie sehr er der Musikwelt fehlte.

Seine Texte sind Lieratur und sein Stil, Wiener Dialekt mit Englisch zu kreuzen ist einzigartig.

Er ist zweifelsohne einder der größten Deutschsprachigen Künstler in Europa.

Falco hat es durch seine Musik ein Denkmal gesetzt, durch das er ewig leben wird!

Posted by Franz Becker on Saturday, 02.13.10 @ 01:43am

Hi!

To Germany: Ich hoffe mein deutsch ist einigermassen gut. Ich war 1994 mit meine Eltern in Wien, Paris und Berlin. Mein Vater ist ein grosser Falco Fan und wir besuchten damals ein Konzerz.

Второй альбом «Junge Römer», который также был спродюссирован Робертом Понгером, появился в 1984 году. Несмотря на то, что позже альбом рассматривался как самая удачная пластинка Фалько, число продаж не оправдало смелых ожиданий, которые вызвал предшествующий альбом Einzelhaft: пластинка была продана в Германии 120.000 раз, в Австрии Фалько получил за успешные продажи золотой диск. Для того, чтобы повысить продажи альбома, Фалько заново записал песню Kann es Liebe sein в дуете с Дезири Носбуш, однако она тоже не стала успешной. «Junge Römer» был первым альбомом, который был полностью экранизирован; клипы снимали в разлных областях США, а также в отеле Челси. Там был снят клип на песню No Answer с австрийской фотомоделью Бриджит Чимаролли. Распространение достигло ряда ORF героев сегодня.

Liebe Leute so meine ich das Falco hundert mal mehr als "only" 60 Millions Tonträger verkaufen können, hätte er seine songs nur in english gesungen, aber er liebte sein land und sein sprache, das muss ma akzeptieren und mehr noch ihn zu gute halten denn gerade das machte ihn einzigartig!!!!!!!!!!!
Gibt es einen geileren Typen auf der Bühne???


Falco had many, many talents that most famous American musicians do not have!

Listen to him...

RIP Falco - a lot of people miss you!!

It's not strictly necessary to understand German... take Jeanny or Out of the Dark - the interpretation of Falco here is marvellous!

Falco we love you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Falco war/ist eine große Persönlichkeit, nicht zu vergleichen mit heutigen "Künstlern", die kaum untereinander zu unterscheiden sind.

Er war ein Gott unter den Musikern, schade dass er sich mitte der 90er in die Domrep zurückgezogen hat, aber es sei ihm vergönnt mit seinem vielen Geld auch mal einfach nur zu genießen...

Ich bewundere seine übermenschliche Art heute noch!!

Wir sehn uns...

Hi everyone,

Ich war damals beim Donauinselfest 93` live dabei, und kann nur sagen, ich danke Gott dafür, das ich das sehen durfte......

Er ist einer der besten "Live Performer" die es gibt, oder geben wird, und dieser Mann hatte solch ein "Charisma" er hätte irgendwas singen können, und die Leute wären trotz strömendem Regen geblieben......

My favorite song is "Emotional"

oooh !!

A superb song and video from the legendary Falco. I am a Falco fan from Malaysia.

Posted by Sam on Wednesday, 03.31.10 @ 10:12am

In 1986, the album Emotional was released, produced by Rob and Ferdi Bolland (Bolland & Bolland). Songs on the album included "Coming Home (Jeanny Part 2)," "The Kiss of Kathleen Turner", and "Kamikaze Capa" which was written as a tribute to the late photojournalist Robert Capa. "The Sound of Musik" was another international success, and a Top 20 U.S. dance hit, though it failed to make the U.S. pop charts.

My favourite: Sound of Musik

Posted by Jo22 on Friday, 04.2.10 @ 10:02am

In 1992, he made a mid sized comeback with Nachtflug, which went to Number 1 in Austria. The single "Titanic" remained in the charts for 18 weeks, the album for 17. For the first time in 6 years, Falco went on tour again. After that, he again concentrated more on his private life for a couple of years, until he had another hit with the Techno-style single "Mutter, der Mann mit dem Koks ist da" (1995), which was especially successful in Germany.

In 1996, Hans decided to leave his beloved Vienna behind and moved to the Dominican Republic, fleeing from the ever indiscreet media in Austria. After another single release in 1996 ("Naked"), he worked on his next (and, as it turned out, final) album. It was almost finished and supposed to be released under the title "Egoisten".

Sadly, Hans Hölzel died in a fatal car crash in the Dominican Republic on February 6th 1998. A coach ran into his Mitsubishi Pajero while he was coming out of a parking lot. The new album was released post-humously as Out Of The Dark. So far, two singles have been released: Out of the Dark" and "Egoist", both of them entered the charts.

In order to make the most of the temporary craze, there have been quite a few releases of Falco-related stuff: a couple of books, videos, a previously unreleased single in January 1999 (Push Push) and yet another Best Of album (The Final Curtain), as well as a collection of video clips.

RIP FALCO
Awesome Popstar

Falco war berühmt für seine Arrogante art, aber gleichzeitig war er irrsinnig charmant und kultiviert. Dafür liebten ihn millionen Fans und auch wenn nicht jeder seine Platten gekauft hat - gehört haben ihn alle!

Falco konnte sich niemend entziehen. Er war der inbegriff eines Popstars, der mit heutigen "Stars" nicht zu vergleichen ist. Einen wie ihn wird es nie wieder geben.

Falco, wir lieben dich !!

Falco hat so viele Menschen Weltweit beeinflusst, er ist zweifelsohne einer der größten Popstars. Vor allem im Deutschsprachigen raum ist Falco nicht wegzudenken.

Johann (Hans) Hölzel (19 February 1957 – 6 February 1998), better known by his stage name Falco, was an Austrian, pop and rock musician and had six #1 Hits - "The Kommissar", "Rock Me Amadeus", "Jeanny", "Coming Home (Jeanny Part 2)", "Vienna Calling", "Body next to Body (with Brigitte Nielsen) and "The Spirit never dies (Jeanny final)". With "Rock Me Amadeus" he is the first and so far only artist to score a #1 Hit in the U.S. with a German language song. His estate has sold 40 million albums and 20 million singles to date, which makes him one of the best selling European singers ever.

I love his songs !!!

Falcos musik war nicht 100% auf den Geschmack der breiten masse ausgelegt, sie war sehr eigen und speziell - und trotzdem oder vielleicht gerade dennoch verkaufte sich Falcos musik weltweit extrem gut.

Niemand hat Falco zu Falco gemacht, er war einzigartig. Mit seinem charisma das er an sich hatte kann bis heute kein anderer Popstar mithalten...

Posted by ZappiZZ on Friday, 05.7.10 @ 14:19pm

Hi!

I think Falco is unique!
In Europe and Asia he's been one of the best selling artists of the 1980's and for sure he has been one of the most talented at this time.

Falco was from Austria - i love Austria!!!

Posted by Gitarzan on Sunday, 05.16.10 @ 08:30am

Thanks for that comment Gitarzan, I must say that all these people making statements like "Falco is so underrated," "He deserves to be in," "Legendary" or "He must be in" without backing it up with any sort of proof has begun to get on my nerves. This is exactly why fans aren't allowed to vote who gets in and who doesn't

Posted by Tahvo Parvianen on Sunday, 05.16.10 @ 09:35am

Is Falco dead??

Posted by Roadrunner on Sunday, 05.16.10 @ 10:29am

Falco died of severe injuries received from a collision with a bus in his Mitsubishi Pajero near the city of Puerto Plata, in the Dominican Republic on 6 February 1998, just two weeks before his 41st birthday. It was initially reported that the autopsy showed high blood levels of alcohol and cocaine, however this was later dismissed. At the time of his death, he was planning a comeback. He was buried in the Zentralfriedhof (Central Cemetery) in Vienna, Austria.

Where are all of this Falco votes coming from? This reminds me of the Coven page. Perhaps the oddest page on this site (1500 comments, really?). But seriously folks, is somebody rigging the voting here? There is no way Falco can have so many different fan websites out there in the cyber world where someone has put a link to this page and encouraged voting. If that is the case I believe half the people here probably think they are voting Falco into the RRHOF

YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY HEART

It was 1998..
I think when he died I started liking him.
Before I didn't know him..
I love his Music..

my #1: THE SOUND OF MUSIK

Posted by Gis. on Tuesday, 07.6.10 @ 03:49am

I think some of the past inductees to the Hall Of Fame have proved that it is for much more than just rock-n-roll. In America, Falco may have been a one-hit wonder, but in Europe, he brought attention to Germany, Austria, and other parts of Europe who idolized him. He helped the proud people of those countries hold their heads up high and say "Our music matters too!" To the culture of Europe, he made a difference. Based on album sales, he made a difference. To me, an American fan, he made a difference.

His style, specialy the way he was talking and playing with words and sounds was unique!

1998: "The James Dean of Vienna has left the stage..."

RIP FALCO

Falco died 10 years ago, the RIPs are getting pretty tiresome. Why don't you all head over to the Fugs' page and pay homage to a REAL rock 'n' roll legend/rebel/innovator, the late, great Tuli Kupferberg. RIP Tuli.

12 years ago, even longer.

I love I love I love his accent!!
One just cannot speak with this accent and still look and sound like a boring good-looker who takes himself seriously. A sense of humour is in the genetic code of this accent.

If you wanna know the definition of cool, this is! FALCO

La tragedia ocurrió de noche.
El auto que conducía Falco colisionó frontalmente contra un autobús.
Su muerte fue instantánea.

The man was COOLNESS personified!

I´m going to visit his grave this Sunday. I´m a bit sad about going , but in honour of Hans..

Visit his grave - it is awesome!
Love from Denmark.

Falco was definitely not a rocker...but if more people weren't lazy and actually dug into his vast catalog of songs you can see he wasn't a 'one hit wonder'. Maybe here in the US (I'm a Falco fan in the US) he was a one hit wonder but elsewhere he was a legend. Sure he sings in German but music is universal, if you let language be a barrier than you're not a true music lover. RIP to him and good day!

Falco ist noch immer der Monolith mit den Superlativa in der österreichischen Popgeschichte. Aus dem gewitzten Hans Hölzel formte er eine facettenreiche Kunstfigur mit bahnbrechender Wirkung. So war er der erste erfolgreiche weiße Rapper und schaffte es mit „Rock Me Amadeus“ als erstes und bisher einziges deutschsprachiges Lied die Spitze der US-Billboard-Charts. Bis zu seinem Ableben anno 1998 verkaufte er über 60 Millionen Platten.

Unerwartet gab es 2009 mit „The Spirit Never Dies“ einen starken Nachschlag. Die durch Zufall wieder gefunden Masterbänder aus dem Jahr 1987 wurden liebevoll in das digitale Zeitalter gerettet. Was damals als zu schwach bewertet wurde und damit in der Schublade landete, klingt heute im Vergleich zu anderen Werken der späten Phase durchaus akzeptabel. Diese Erfolge stammen von einem eigenwilligen Wiener Bassisten, der im Underground bei Bands wie der Hallucination Company oder Drahdiwaberl gerlernt hatte, zeitlebens seine Verbundenheit zu seinen Wurzeln demonstrierte. So sehr der „Falke“ mit Stimmungsschwankungen und wankelmütigen Aktionen seine Karriere immer wieder ins Wanken brachte, die Kraft des musikalischen Erbes steht ungebrochen in der vordersten Reihe Österreichischer Qualitäts-Arbeit eines besonderen Ausnahme-Könners.

Wenn man angesichts dessen was er geschaffen hat, heutzutage von irgendjemand hört das Falco ein - one hit wonder ist- dann fragt man sich leise wer das sagt, bestimmt jedoch keiner der Falco auch nur annähernd kennt, aber bestimmt jemand der zumindest ein Lied von ihm gehört hat :-)

Als, in diesem sinne liebe Freunde...

No one could be cooler than him! He looks amazing... nothing tops a legend like Falco. God rest the soul of Johann Holzel.

POR SUPUESTO QUE TIENE QUE ESTAR EN "FUTURE ROCK LEGENDS".....

VOTO SIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!....

he was the sound of music

Posted by marie on Thursday, 08.5.10 @ 11:01am

No marie, Falco was not the sound of music. There are better German performers than Flaco like Kraftwerk and The Scorpions.

Posted by Gassman on Thursday, 08.5.10 @ 11:47am

Watch what you're saying, Gassman. Falco was Austrian, not German.


Come to think of it, so were the Von Trapps. And Julie Andrews' character was called Maria. Coincidence?

Posted by The_Claw on Thursday, 08.5.10 @ 11:53am

@ Gassman:

The Scorpions haben zwar bislang mehr Platten als Falco verkauft und sind demnach logischerweise auch Weltweit bekannter, aber bestimmt nicht beliebter - das kann ich die als Deutscher verraten!!

Kraftwerk reicht keinesfalls an Falco heran, da war Falco doch um einiges besser.

Falco ging 1996 ins exil nach DomRep, weil ihn die "Austrian Press" ständig verfolgte, im grunde war Falco in Europa ständig präsent und das von 1981 bis 1996 - produziert hat er aber bis zu seinem Tod 1998.

SO BELIEVE ME: FALCO is the sound of music !!!

Posted by FRanK on Friday, 08.6.10 @ 09:45am

The song "Rock Me Amadeus" was in German... Just the chorus was in English and this song was the (and is still) only German song which was #1 in the US. Falco was a great musican and he made his own kind of music. And he's not a "one-hit wonder" he could have been more successfull but he didn't want to do concerts in the US. And the USA is not the whole world, in other countries he had a gread success. I'm thinking about Europe and Asia!

Posted by Marco on Wednesday, 08.11.10 @ 16:13pm

Oh how great he was!
God bless him!

Posted by Gracia on Sunday, 08.15.10 @ 10:29am

it's a shame Falco had to die in order to live...

Posted by TheGirl on Wednesday, 08.18.10 @ 11:01am

i am happy to see that there are so many falco fans out there!

My fav: NACHTFLUG
(i don't understand.. , but the song is really fantastic)

;-) Falco, i love you!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Lotus on Wednesday, 08.18.10 @ 11:04am

Falco was so talented but had such a great sense of humour too and enjoyed performing and acting and being fun and silly.
Such a great loss of talent - what a character!

RIP Falco!

Posted by Baby Blue on Thursday, 08.19.10 @ 11:06am

Es una pena que haya fallecido tan joven , tenia un gran talento musical . Falco : Verdammt , wir leben noch!!

Falco you are in my blood since i was only a child, i still can't belive you're gone but i'm sure that one day we will meet again...

Falco is pure musical talent

people still like him because of his music and his amazing voice

very different from many of the mainstream sellout-artists that exist today

RIP, *FALCO*
