Falco : Rock Me Amadeus


This massive 1986 homage to classical composer Mozart (who was, himself, Austria's original popstar) by Austrian popstar Falco hit number one both in the UK (the first Austrian act to reach No. 1 there) and in the States.




Falco, who was a huge popstar in Europe at the time, is often erroneously thought to be a one-hit wonder outside of continental Europe but, in fact, he did chart with a number of his singles both in the UK and the USA most notably with his follow-up "Vienna Calling".
