"Jeanny" is a song by the Austrian musician Falco, recorded in 1985 for Falco's album ''Falco 3''. It was the third song released as a single out of the album in 1986. Controversial due to its lyrics, it nonetheless became a number one hit in numerous European countries. In 2008 the song re-entered the Austrian Single Charts.〔(Austriancharts.at )〕 == Lyrics == The song is about a relationship between a man and a girl named Jeanny. At the time when it reached number one, critics said that the song glorifies rape. German TV and radio personality Thomas Gottschalk made various negative remarks and called the song "rubbish". An outcry in German language markets caused the song to be banned by some radio broadcasters or played with a preceding warning by others. Typically, the scandal only helped to increase the sales of the single. The song is sung in a slightly unhinged voice, but the lyrics don't actually contain any direct reference to the act of rape or abduction. It is left to the listener's imagination. Falco argued that it is about the musings of a stalker. The part of the ''Newsflash'' in the track is spoken by German newsreader Wilhelm Wieben. The newsflash has obvious parallels to the case in the song, but doesn't explicitly mention the girl's name. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jeanny」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
