to the early MTV generation Do you know this song?

watch the video on youtube @ the link below:

The song is called "The sound of musik" by Falco (the guy who sang "rock me Amadeus")
and that is not a typo. It is musik in the native language. It was a political rant against the ban on rock music in Austria at the time. This is one of my personal favorite songs that took me 20 years to get a copy of when MP3 downloads made it posible to find any song in the world.
Who else knows this song?

I sorta remember it. I was more fond of the Rock Me Amadeus song though. lol. I love the OLD MTV, when there were actually music videos on there.

Never heard it in my life. Hm. I thought all I did back then was watch MTV.

BTW, I didn't know it was even POSSIBLE for a man to look so

in a kilt. Ewww.

Well I guess they did that. What do they speak in Austria?

I yell at my 15 year old all the time, that she is listening to "noise" and not good music whith instraments. Everything now a days is done with computers.

It was great back when Billy Squier and Journey were on. It crumbled every year after.

Now do they even show music videos?

What a waste of a music channel.

I agree.....we always tell our kids when Foreigner or something like that comes on....those are the classics when musicians were really musicians.
