頂著一頭五顏六色的假髮,擦著誇張濃厚的妝,這個身著歐洲古代宮廷服飾的男人,是維也納的另一個阿瑪迪斯..。
  


  1957年2月19日出生於維也納的Falco,從小學習古典樂,在成為國際知名的樂手前,曾在一個樂團裡擔任貝斯手。然而在單飛的日子裡,他對Rap這種音樂產生了興趣。他是第一個把rap混合到流行樂和搖滾樂的歐洲人。
                                                                               
  他的第一首熱門單曲 "Der Kommissar" 出自於1982年發行的首張專輯"Einzelhaft"
  隔年一個叫After the Fire 的英國新浪潮團體翻唱"Der Kommissar"的英文版,讓這首單曲登上了美國的第五名。"Der Kommissar"據說也是由歐洲人完成的首支Rap單曲(不聽不知,真的超耳熟的..) 不過這首歌的Video之後也被MTV戲稱為"The Worst Video of All Time". (不過有第二版XD Falco在裡面很帥~)
                                                                               
  Falco最為人所知的專輯應該是他於1985年發行的"Falco 3"。
  裡面有幾首國際暢銷單曲,例如: "Vienna Calling" ,"Jeanny", "Rock Me Amadeus" 
  "Jeanny"這首歌尤其受到奧地利樂迷的喜愛。但是由於歌詞內容是在講賣淫少女的故事,因此曾遭奧地利電台禁播。(人家那時是80年代嘛)但是別的國家應該就照放不誤
了..反正沒幾個人聽的懂...XD  據說...施文彬翻唱過...歌名叫"七仔"....||| 我本來覺得..騙笑ㄟ..但是一查..是真的|||
                                                                               
  不過讓我"發現"Falco,進而認識Falco,想為他寫下一點淺薄介紹的,是這首我在前幾天深夜於MTV看到的"Rock Me Amadeus"
                                                                               
  只見Falco頂著一頭五顏六色的假髮,擦著誇張濃厚的妝,他一會身著歐洲古代宮廷服飾大鬧,一會又是西裝筆挺地指揮眾人,宛如一個瘋狂而又高傲的阿瑪迪斯...。
  這首rap-styled的歌是搭上"阿瑪迪斯"這部描寫莫札特一生的電影而成的,於1985年發行後,終於在1986年橫掃全國各地,並登上美國牌行榜4週冠軍。
                                                                               
  不過接下來發行的專輯雖在歐洲還是有知名度,但曾在美國享有的聲名卻已難重現。
  從92年的Nachtflug專輯發行後,Falco就沒有新作再推出。只出版一些精選。
  在1998年2月6號,Falco正忙於回歸的新專輯時,他卻因一場車禍意外喪生,享年40歲。
                                                                               
  Falco 3裡面除了融合饒舌形式,還有令人興奮的早年跳舞元素,曲調也是相當流行好聽。他在"Rock Me Amadeus"的瘋狂MV裡面,在尾端雙手合十,閉著眼一副誠懇的樣子,但最後竟然張眼對著鏡頭偷笑起來...。頑皮又才華洋溢的阿瑪迪斯,最後還是溜回天上了...。無論如何,僅此表達一點敬意。


Rock Me Amadeus (Deutsch) by Falco
                                                                               
Ooo rock me Amadeus
Rock me Amadeus...
Rock rock rock rock me Amadeus
Rock me all the time to the top
                                                                               
Er war ein Punker
Und er lebte in der groen Stadt
Es war Wien, war Vienna
Wo er alles tat
Er hatte Schulden denn er trank
Doch ihn liebten alle Frauen
Und jede rief:
Come on and rock me Amadeus
                                                                               
Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, oh oh oh Amadeus

Er war Superstar
Er war populr
Er war so exaltiert
Because er hatte Flair
Er war ein Virtuose
War ein Rockidol
Und alles rief:
Come on and rock me Amadeus
                                                                               
Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, oh oh oh Amadeus
                                                                               
Come on and rock me Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, oh oh oh Amadeus

Es war um 1780
Und es war in Wien
No plastic money anymore
Die Banken gegen ihn
Woher die Schulden kamen
War wohl jedermann bekannt
Er war ein Mann der Frauen
Frauen liebten seinen Punk
                                                                               
Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, oh oh oh Amadeus
                                                                               
Come and rock me Amadeus....
                                                                               
Baby baby do it to me rock me
Baby baby do it to me rock me
Baby baby do it to me rock me
Ja ja ja
Baby baby do it to me rock me
Baby baby do it to me rock me
Baby baby do it to me rock me

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus Amadeus, oh oh oh Amadeus...



Rock Me Amadeus English Version
                                                                               
He was the first punk ever to set foot on this earth.
He was a genius from the day of his birth.
He could play the piano like a ring and a bell
And ev'rybody screamed:
Come on, rock me Amadeus.
                                                                               
He was a superstar, he was dynamite and whatever he did (it)
Seemed to be alright.
And he drank (and) he cursed and he fooled around
But when the women would shout:
Rock me Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Oh oh oh Amadeus.
                                                                               
With a bottle of wine in one hand and a woman in the other
'Cause he was a ladies man
He never stopped to worry what the next day would bring
Because the girls would sing:
Rock me Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Oh oh oh Amadeus.

His mind was on rock and roll and having fun
Because he lived so fast he had to die so young.
But he made his mark in history.
Still ev'rybody says:
Rock me Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Oh oh oh Amadeus.
