Retro Saturday: Falco

For some bizarre reason, my boyfriend - better known on this blog as faithful travelling companion - is a Falco fan. We were in HMV today and he became very animated on discovering that a Falco DVD exists!!

Anyway Falco hasn't been on Retro Saturday yet so now's the time I guess...

"Rock Me Amadeus"- this was his biggest hit in the UK: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=P6LSVNabJak&feature=related

"Vienna Calling" - which I specially dedicate tonight to faithful travelling companion as this seems to be his favourite !! : http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=LhqAIXsaydM

"Der Kommissar" - I always liked this one!: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=uGEEBUupVAw&feature=related

There was also an English-language version of "Der Kommissar" by After The Fire, so let's have this too: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Guvo7gUdUnE

Actually I think I saw the DVD in Flensburg last weekend- I was a bit surprised!

I'd only ever heard Rock Me Amadeus (which I love) before reading this post,but I think I've become a bit of a fan now.And now I know where my German teacher's favourite phrase "Alles klar,Herr Kommissar" comes from :)

Time for a Falco revival!!

I suppose he was a bit before his time with his "rapping" style, eat your heart out Kanye West & 50 Cent :)
