The only ones I know of who would move to the United States specifically for political reasons would be considered as Right-Wing extremists by Americans and possibly "Psychos" by average Europeans or Canadians.

Oh god, PLEASE let Stephen Harper be one of them....

Andem, your new avatar is great, I LOVE Falco!!

I'm so excited that there's another Falco fan on this forum! That's so great.

I got the albums "Falco III" and "Einzelhaft" while I was in Germany last. Great, great music. I can't really find any other his other stuff other than Rock me Amadeus here in Toronto or anywhere else in Ontario or Quebec for that matter. Most of my collection is mp3s and/or converted to normal CD burns.

I wish he was still around to continue his music. He died in the Dominican Republic in 1998 :~( in a car accident.

I would really have liked to see an ending to his Jeanny trilogy.. A proper ending, not some bootleg mix of unreleased stuff.

Geez, you're kidding me, I didn't realize that. 8-(

I have the red album, can't think of the name, it is a gorgeous cover. We bought it in Germany, so don't know if it is available here. I have to go find it, my records are in a mess because we so rarely listen to records anymore.

It is so cool and so funny to hear the name Falco again! He was really good! I love that suddenly he has his own thread. :cool:

I think the album you're talking about is



Falco III. I might be wrong. You should pull out his album and have a listen :D You won't regret it.

My fav has gotta be:

The first one, the red one, sure looks like it. Yes, I really have to dig it out, especially since my favourite song is running through my brain now!

You are one crazy kinda Falco fan! Thanks, I'm enjoying it.


Wow, I didn't even know so many people know Johann Hölzl alias Falco... *WOW*

I was shocked when I heard about his death, just after he had released "Out of the Dark" (a fantastic song!) which then reached No.1 in Germany's charts. He was really a fantastic singer!!

Out of the dark was a great song... I have two versions of it on MP3 and one on CD somewhere... I don't listen to CDs anymore, and my mp3 versions are kinda ehmmm, crappy.
