message: I have to point out two mistakes which were always made about "Rock me Amadeus" in the past.
First of all "Rock me Amadeus" was not the first and only song, sung in German which achieved #1 in UK and USA! In 1961 John Dowell sang his song "Wooden Heart" partly in German and made #1 in USA. "Wooden Heart" was based on the German folk song "Muss i' denn". Elvis was also #1 with his version of "Wooden Heart" in Great Britain, also with two parts in German! Of course, you could say "Rock me Amadues" was the first true German-language song which achieved #1 but to be honest Falco uses some English words in his text, too. 
Secondly Falco was not the first Austrian musician to achieve #1. This was Anton Karas with "Harry Lime Thema" from the movie The Third Man in 1950. (#1 in USA and UK!) --86.33.80.83 (talk) 15:09, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

message: I've heard a quasi-cover in english by a canadian band.  It's the chorus from this song with the verse being a meta-song about Mozart and his life including the Falco song.  Who did it? Joe407 (talk) 22:50, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

message: Why start the first paragraph by saying it is a 1986 song? It is clearly a 1985 song!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.46.15.66 (talk) 17:08, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

message: Guys, how about Russian cover-parody on this song? Groups Slot and Boney’NEM makes cover which was named Amadeus.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.91.109.123 (talk) 20:23, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  About "Parodies and references" 

message: The organization of the article seems odd. The 'History' section, focuses on chart performance of this and other Falco songs, then there is another section titled 'Chart Performance', and then there is a 'Production' section, which has some things which could be called history (e.g. that the song was inspired by the movie 'Amadeus'). This could be rethought.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.111.105.17 (talk) 05:26, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

message: I just realized, in the Simpsons episode where they go to a broadway musical version of Planet of The Apes, the tune for "Dr Zaius" is borrowed from Rock Me Amadeus.  Surely this is worthy of inclusion! TAPwiki (talk) 22:04, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
