Ja vohl
ooooooooh jaaaaa
now where else will one hear the original? The answer is: nowhere! Bravo! We're dancing.
So glad to hear this here(for the first time) rather than that English language bastardization.
Toll!
Within 3 hours, this has been played now 5 times...
Thats overdoing it a bit surely...

oh wow.
when you listen to the RP standard mix over breakfast and suddenly this pops up and you're like..."wait...wait i know that" and then recognition and then "what the heck? ...on Radio Paradise?" - That was downright weird
(I dont know yet if I feel delighted by this cuh-razy mix or not... ah.whoamikidding. Of course I am. Weirdness for the win! Well payed, Bill, well played.)

I often spend time in Germany (Koln), it is suprising how often "Alles klar" gets followed by "herr Kommisar" in normal conversation. roughly translated something like "everything is fine officer!"
did Warren Zevon's "Werewolves Of London" cd get misplaced and RP had to play this instead?
Drah di net um oh oh oh schau schau der Kommissar geht um, oh oh oh wenn er di anschaut und du waast warum....Alles klar Herr Kommissar!
Auf Deutsch. Jawohl! Brilliant RP. Never a dull day with RP. Thanks Bill.

Go to Vienna and say this out loud: "Falco was not a respected artist in Europe"! And then see what happens.....but maybe you run marathons, so might have a chance in Hell to get away before they hang you from the Riesenrad. LLOOOOOLLLLL

Is that a joke?
FALCO was not a respected artist in Europe - instead a master of cocaine-use,
something that ultimately cost him his life, when he made a high-speed accident
on some island, where he was running an (unsuccesful) studio!
An Austrian Coke-Gigolo - that was Falco!
He is now certainly smiling in his grave, knowing RP played his song!
He was desperately trying to be accepted as a musician, something he never archieved!
Originally he was a lame bassplayer in some unknown Vienna band, before he turned
into FALCO, what has not been his real name!

"Did you ever rap that thing, Jack?"
Until today, I always heard that line as:
"Do you have a rat bag, by any chance?"
I always figured "rat bag" was a drug reference

Good 80s fun. Sure to annoy the humorless ones on RP.
Oh, boy.... Waaayyyy back.... Still dig the grove! 

lol!!! Soooooo nostalgic of my late teens and 20s lol!
dang reminiscent of clubbing back in the early 80's... 

Man, how did I survive the 80s without losing my sense of quality music. But I must admit I cannot stay still at the moment.
Schau schau!
Alles klar RP!
Alles klar RP!
10 - Einfach Super! Einfach überraschend, das hier zu hören!
Thanks, RP!
Thanks, RP!
Gets tired kind of fast. This Devo clone forgot to add some bars.
A blast from the past.
I am sorry if somebody finds this crap. Granted, it is not The Who, Led Zeppelin. But it is music from past of some people, like me. And it brings some memories.
So, Stingray ease up. Let us be sentimental.

At the college radio station, the DJ was putting together an awesome set and needed to play a Falco song. He grabbed the album with about 12 seconds to go, cued up the segue and saw a huge deliberate gash cut across the entire album. He couldn't play the song and the other song had ended so he flipped on the microphone to fill with some witty banter while his other hand fumbled for *anything* handy to play, a PSA or something... but instead of witty banter, all listeners heard was the end of the first song, dead air, then "SOMEBODY SCRATCHED FALCO!!!!" *followed by some off-mic sobbing/swearing.

Either radio Paradise has been invaded, or Bill has temporarily taken leave of his senses! Enough!! Stop this noise!
10 because my wife has a huge smile on her face...
Come on --- this is more excellent than I remember.
Well, I'm just old enough to have heard this song when it first came out. I think it ages pretty well; certainly better than other songs of its era (Eye of the Tiger anyone?)
I was introduced to this in 1982 by a German friend in Heidelberg. Part of Neue Deutsche Welle. I'll always like this song...
Much better version..Yah?
Falco!!! The best Austrian music export since Mozart :)!
Yes great fun this is.!!!
Leider gibt's kein Falco mehr...
FALCO, WAS MACHSTE HIER ? 

only the good die young...
Falco was great
listen to "Amadeus"
