Great choice, Dizzo! Not only because he's from my homestead Austria, but also because he managed something that no artist from our country, despite how successful they were/are around here, ever did - landing 1st place in the UK AND in the billboard charts in the US. That, and the fact that there are definitely some parallels between him and Mozart, as the lyrics point out so nicely (for example, both mainly got the recognition they deserved for their talents after their death)

PS: another great song of him is, at least in my opinion, "Out Of The Dark". It was released after his death, and the lyrics are hauntingly beautiful, right as if Falco already felt that his time on Earth was coming to an end. Definitely worth checking it out!
