Night Flight (Audio CD)

Customer Review

So now I have just finished it heard Falco third last album on which he pottered in his lifetime and were the down to the small success of the single "Titanic" indulged in any great sales figures. Why, I wonder. Emphasizes the album but several times and varied way the strengths of the Austrian artist and his person in ten crisp, danceable, yet snappy satirical songs, as you know it from Falco.

In fact, "Night Flight" in no case his successful album "Falco 3" is ("Rock me Amadeus", "Munich Girls", "Jeanny", etc.), with which it is usually associated Always, after and need not 'in front this hide. Falco still remains as mentioned his principles and his character true. Especially in the first song "Titanic", in which he cynically way about the decadence of the three-class society of the Titanic and her pitiful case (for full ship, because they wanted to break a record, too few lifeboats, because you first to the rich 1st class thought => decadence, drags at the end of each perishes) and is already here parallels "Falco 3" s "Rock me Amadeus" can use. Decadence and narcissism were for Falco always a certain theme in his songs and lyrics and thereby creates "Titanic" it successfully, to keep this image repair.

Also in other places you can feel this decadence acoustically become (for example, "Psychos" or "propaganda", where he tries also to political content) and acts clearly and uncompromisingly to the person Falco live and establish themselves as such in their interest to let. The social alienation, dehumanization, in favor of one's own satisfaction, of profit, of power and personal happiness, regardless of whether the costs which have to draw from the rest of society, can be found in lines like "I need to say yes to another excess "(" Psychos ") more than ever before and are critical of society to a great extent. And that is entirely intentional, Falco told you, for example, about "Titanic" that he wanted to caricature a society with this song that says, you would be heaven at your feet (approximately). And you can feel (not too seriously intentioned, ironic view of the monarchies of the past and the self-centeredness of their representatives) or "Dance Mephisto" not only in "Titanic" or "Psychos", in songs like "Monarchy Now" ( Sales of oneself to the devil for their own freedom and their own fun)

Of course, with all 'of satire and social criticism Falco has not left out the fun or omitted other elements of his style. On the contrary, be mixed with pop rock Austro-HipHop as strong and influential as ever, this wonderfully 'Dadaist and refreshingly crazy sounding sound and voices image, you can love it or hate it, but you can not do is to ignore, because it leaves an imprint in their own thoughts. Falco is unique, Falco can not be copied, Falco remains true to himself. This proves this album once again.
