Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The other Austrian superstar of The '80s.New Wave singer Johann "Falco" Hölzel (19 February 1957 – 6 February 1998) became a One and a Half Hit Wonder with "Der Kommisar" (After The Fire's English-language cover was more popular), followed by the worldwide hit "Rock Me Amadeus." - in the US at least, for, while he was more consistently popular in German-speaking countries, follow-up songs (e.g. "Vienna Calling") were, at best, modest hits in the US.Along with Nena's "99 Luftballons," he introduced (mostly) German-language songs to an English-speaking audience; the difference was that Nena sang, while Falco rapped. He passed away in 1998 at the age of just forty after his SUV was in a serious collision with a bus on a mountain road in the Dominican Republic.This ain't that Falco. | |

Gratuitous English | |
| Falco (Music) / int_2e6a41e0 | comment |
Gratuitous English: Most of his songs were sung in German with the odd English word or phrase wedged in (which Todd in the Shadows referred to as "Deushlish"). | |

Awesome Anachronistic Apparel: The "Rock Me Amadeus" video cuts between Falco performing in a Baroque concert hall to an audience in mock-18th-century clothing, while dressed in modern black tie, and Falco performing in a modern biker bar while dressed in mock-18th-century clothing. | |

Mind Screw | |
| Falco (Music) / int_bef696dd | comment |
Mind Screw: The music video for "Wiener Blut". Just watch. "Mutter, der Mann mit dem Koks ist da" is also big one. It plays full on two meanings of word "Koks" (cocaine and, well, coke made of coal). | |
