Falcos triumph in Japan

Already three months before his concerts the japanese fans built a snake after tickets a night long - Falco, also superstar in the country 'of the rising sun'. However - before the sold out tour it gaves conflicts. The japanese government asked Falco urgently to sing his hits only in german. The fans should not understand the explosive lyrics of Falcos songs. Consciously, he grabs political topics, that involve the country directly, the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki for example.. Furthermore, the Japanese authorities also had a little jitters to the ambiguous Jeanny-lyrics. However - this did no demolition to the enthusiasm. The fans flipped out by the dozen, but on their very own way. So in Tokyo Falco could jump from the stage and ran singing through the public. Falco: "This works only with this discipline audience." Falcos biggest fan was allowed to go into the wardrobe of the star. Kohdai Obata, whole five years old, had begged his parents for a very long time until they went with him to the concert. Backstage he met his idol and whispered him the only words in the ears that he can speak in english: I love you, Falco.
