Falco's Rock Me Amadeus...why?

[libnnc]

Can someone explain it to me?

I had friends in high school who thought the song was cool....:scared:

1. It ranks right up there with "Weird Science", that song

:eyes:

2. On 6 February 1998 Hans Hölzel died in a car accident in the Dominican Rep

On 6 February 1998 Hans Hölzel died in a car accident in the Dominican Republic at around 4.40 pm local time. But Falco lives on more intensively than ever in the hearts of his fans.

3. Have you ever heard that song on a slow speed?

I remember being at a friend's house in high school listening to records. She had that one on a 45RPM, put it on the turntable, not realizing the speed was set to 33. The female vocalists slowed down sounded like a chorus of VERY effeminate men, and changed the whole feel of the song. "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, ROCK ME AMEDEUS" took on a whole new meaning. Somehow, I always thought our new version was funnier. :rofl:

4. My question is: how do you not like the song?

Assuming, of course, that we are talking about the version actually in German and not the one with the inane English voice over.

6. If you have to ask, you'll never know.
