Falco was the most internationally successful pop artist ever to come out of Austria, best known for his 1986 chart-topping hit Rock Me Amadeus. Born Johann Holzel in Vienna on February 19, 1957, he was a classically trained child prodigy, but after graduating from the Vienna Conservatoire, he relocated to West Berlin and began fronting a jazz-rock band. Rechristening himself Falco in honor of the German skier Falko Weissflog, he returned to Vienna in time to play bass on the punk outfit Drahdiwaberls 1979 album Psycho Today, penning their best-known song, Ganz Wein. Falco began his solo career in 1982 with the LP Einzelhaft; his Der Kommissar, which fused techno-pop with rapped German lyrics, became a major European hit and a club favorite in the U.S., with a cover version by the group After the Fire reaching the Top Five in 1983. The follow-up, Jeanny, was banned outright by radio as a result of its theme of prostitution, but nevertheless went on to top the German charts. While 1984s Junge Roemer attracted little attention, in 1986 Falco issued Falco 3, highlighted by the single Rock Me Amadeus, a campy blend of classical music and synth pop which topped both the American and British charts. While the rock ballad Vienna Calling was a minor hit, Falcos subsequent efforts, including 1986s Emotional and 1988s Wiener Blut, fared poorly; he had been long out of the spotlight when he died in a car accident on February 6, 1998 at the age of 40.

- @megi：他的歌擅動起歐洲反美情緒，濃厚的貴族氣息和叛逆吶喊，是最不能被遺忘的天才歌手，RAP始祖。

- @太编(没有音乐世界可以消失)：八十年代开始走红于欧陆的 Falco（法尔可，1957.2.19～1998.2.6），出生于音乐之都——奥地利首都维也纳，原名 Johann Hoelzel （约翰·霍赛尔），自幼便学习古典音乐，四岁时已能弹奏钢琴，被认为是一个音乐神童。但尽管如此，父母却从不鼓励他往音乐方面发展，宁可要他走比较“正常”的路，最好能够取得“博士”的头衔，哪一种都好，只要不是生活不稳定的音乐家。当然，由于热爱音乐，Falco 并没有听任父母的安排，并且决定进入维也纳音乐学院，接受古典音乐的训练。不过，学校毕业之后，Falco 却爱上了流行音乐，转往西柏林发展，加入一支爵士摇滚乐队，担任主唱。有一天他在电视上看到滑
