FALCO-JEANNY-ENGLISH TRANSLATION

[TheMca1981]

Thank you for the translation, I wonder for 20 yrs the meaning of his words. In my Favorits! Have a great day!

[nicky1997nicky]

Teleio!

[HeavyDemir]

Derrick would bitch slap chuck Norris as Falco laughs his heart out.

RIP Falco I miss u 

[mitrooper]

Badly done subs, but you're the only one so far who has tried, so I have to applaud that.

Next time try to make the subs go in sync with the actual lyrics of the song and never ever use fade outs and fade ins for subs.

[ILoveCurves88]

@ tiborvivi I know, right? This wasn't a hit in the US, but I'd bought the album to get Rock Me Amadeus, N when I heard this song, N the INCREDIBLY RAW, POWERFUL EMOTION in the vocals, especially after the last "news flash" verse, I was addicted! Even without knowing what the words meant til just now, but I gathered something bad happened to the girl N got TOTALLY choked up!! I FINALLY found another copy of the album online N just ordered it! I'M SOOOO EXCITED...

[zeproo]

Totally wrong translations

[samanthapiixiepie]

@zeproo no its fairly accurate. The original lyrics were altered slightly. The English version on the UK album had more darker lyrics while this version is more ambiguous.

Other than the subtitles needing the fade in/our changed to instant on/off,kirkh70 did a good job visually with the picture slideshow.It is more visually stunning.

[CheyBurnz1]

He should of been a James Bond :)

[celadnice]

Good job, Kirkh70! I grew up with the song too, never knew the lyrics or the fact Falco died so tragically and so soon. Thanks!

[iraACDC10]

Wien ist die glucklich Stadt von Zentrale Europa mit den seinen Problemen. Das ist eine schone Melodie fur eine real Geschichte!!!

[Robinsonkaable]

Love your video. This song used to tear my veins...in fact, sometimes it still does.

[ptrck99]

Thanks a lot for uploading this. This song is unbelievable, I didn`t know the lyrics till this day. Thank you very much.

[PANAGOKOS]

NICE JOB AMIGO

[veritasdivina]

Very nice. Nice reminder of my early teens. 

[MissSnowflake123]

I love it,he had such a force on singing and put out there his heart and soul.A true artist,.

[CafaMustang]

Maybe the song is about kidnapping and rape. But Falco is not a butcher, but an artist. He wanted to say something else, and all the simple minds think this is a straigthforward song about kidnapping. For me, the chorus reminds me about how precious are all the innocent little beings who can't protect themselves. Children, good girls, dogs, butterflies...any little being who depends on YOU. And it's easy to break them. Too easy, we must take care of them.

[1Universal7]

YOU did a great job! The CAPTION below the video is how i felt about this song. AGAIN a great job

[johndoe590]

wow didnt know he passed away.

[chdarmaster]

Μπραβο Κίρκη!

[bormidan]

you know,4 years ago I lost my girl.Whan we was together, in our romantic time, we loved to hear this song!20 min. ago I finded this song and I can`t stop the tears!

[angeloflight2010]

thank you so much...i was so in love with this song, i've linstened it 1000 times, but never understood the meeaning...thank you my friend.

[DarkLionInteractive]

@ShroomsAndStuff what?.... no, I mean the part in the audio where he's talking, not singing....

[mirkodzimiskovic]

We need like this filing to leave

[jeannychristine]

My name is Jeanny. And I think this song is great. It's deep, and meaningful - and it has nothing to do with my name lol.

[reapermanslayer]

A good friend of mine made me listen to this sh*t....I miss him....and thanx to him..Carl

[tiborvivi]

what kind of morons refused to play this emotional song? All the worthless rap-craps promoting hatred and violence are OK, but an emotional song is banned??? F*** u all! Commercial radio sucks big dick!

[DarkLionInteractive]

is there any version of this song that doesn't have that talking part?

[Excentner]

Epic!

[linathessaloniki]

Ε Ξ Α Ι Ρ Ε Τ Ι Κ Ο !!!

[marciahoy]

thank you for the translation...sad but i loved it....Falco you have the voice of the angels

[littlesun2010]

Really, really great job.. This song deserves it ...

[sexboyinKS]

Now that I finally found the translated version, yeah, it's a bit scary but I've always loved this song ever since I first heard it. Even untranslated it's still a very powerful song and almost every time I hear it I cry like a little school girl. Thank you for making the video. You did a fantastic job.

[dmitrievsergey]

Great

[makaKOSZALIN]

My dad showed me this song ... its so amazing how this song shows so much emotions ... what's so funny is that this song was BANNED from radio's and tv in Germany if I'm not mistaken. The story behind this song is so deep : /

[Irisss1990]

goosebumps



[simon6071]

I have tears in my eyes every time I hear this beautiful love song.

FALCO FOREVER.

[titiffable]

I' ve been looking for you during 25 years through your song "Jeanny". When I'm sad this song comes sundenly in my mind but through the time and perceverence i was looking for the one who was singing it and today i know that was you Hans Falco my consolation. I've never knew you were gone long time before that's why you still being here in my heart and mind. LOVE YOU..........

[BarbaraBarby0604]

I'm 13 and i heard for Falco little time ago. I didn't understand what is he singing so i looked up for an english version. You're the best. Thanks a lot.!

[graciemaemarie11]

this should have been a movie... directed by...............roman polanski....

[mirkodzimiskovic]

BEST JUST BEST

[Radicaization]

....she was never been missing. she lives happily ever after in Luxembourg.

[WaterboyPhx]

@Radicaization Nein...sie lebt aus Liechtenstein. ;)

[tanjica17]

i <3 this song...i always cry when i hear it:(

[chmarkmiro]

very very very much to thank you ......

[MadnessRatt]

Thanks ! (Y)

[mysteakhouse]

Wow, there's a lot of passion from that vocal.........Thanks for posting this masterpiece, Kirk.

[mraxlrose]

Awesome song. I remember it. I'm in the USA.Unlike most people here, I like real music and not the stuff from american idol.

[thezerovoidshow]

A couple of wrong things to correct here. First this song was banned in Germany. Mostly because DJ's refused to play it, and the press gave it a raking through the coals, or to say really a bad review with lots of negative comments.

[thezerovoidshow]

Second Falco has always been a song writer about social/political problems, and Jeanny is no different.

[alvitdk]

@thezerovoidshow it true, it was only banned in Bavaria due to the lyrics about the girl (Jeannie) being abducted and misused. Bavaria is mainly Catholic and had big problems with anything sex and morally wrong in public radio or television.

[lemsa69]

big likeeeeee

[LuckyRob21]

such a dark song , sung with such conviction and feeling. Such a shame he died.

[bskoros]

Awesome job! I still have the original CD from back then. Always wondered what the translation was. Thank you!!

[eswaricaishujuan]

I heard this song when I was ten and I loved the song without understanding what it meant. Now I do and your video has added the mood to it. I enjoyed it, thank you!

[jenschuman]

i love falco...!

[sichefmat]

Falco is a true gem in the music world & his music was some of the best of my teens. This sons is awesome & so powerful

[Misha3la]

GREAT JOB!! ;)

[AKITAHUSKI]

Thanks for sharing! This is one of the most beautiful, the great Falco. R.I.P :(:(:(

[sglaursen]

in a wierd kind of way.. so love i this song..i am thinking for use in some kind of edukation...???

[in5d]

thanks for the subtitles. I always loved the melody of the vocals but never knew what he was saying.

[driesvermeulen88]

"Gini! With a straw if you please!"

[QueenAdda]

life is not what it seems...

[bloc706]

R.I.P.  :(

[eskicuma81]

so beautiful

[Magamaguitam]

I didn't know about Falco, Eva!!

Quite an "unconfortable" yet a very sad and cruel real subject addressed in such an

'ad hoc' and superbly dark approach!!!

Well done, Kirkh70 *******

Mine *.*

[webcityguy]

Strange stuff. There's a certain tragic elegance in alot of his music...a deeper level of meaning and feeling that rises above the norm...like Picasso's Rose period...or a Vermeer letter...something secret going on somewhere we're not. I think that's what draws us in. I miss him...his way of seeing things...his music...the two combined most of all.

[MrEuropeuberalles]

we miss you man...

[tarsov2004]

BEAUTYFUL VIDEO,BRAVO!

[ZotMalakhov]

Excellent video and very good performance! It very beautiful music! Very well made song, and very nice voice!!! Thank you a lot for sharing your nice video!

[timur1lenk]

I remember very well of this song...I still love it very much. This song is for ever.

[AliesandLies]

its such a scarry song but the music is really good

[pikiwiki]

I'm sixteen and i really like this song

[DragnOnFire]

I was 15 in 1985, the year Falco 3 came out. I remember the first time I heard this song. I understood about half of it. The song sent shivers up and down my spine. 25 years later, it still does. R.I.P. Falco.

[peterchoyce]

He was a HIP HOP artist? Then he's the only hiphop I'D ever liked! yikes- great song incredible work w the video man..Hey, WHAT is the story- why R German rock songs in German VERSE only? Then English on Chorus? I mean, why not be consistent and do the whole song one way or dah utter? GERMAN FOR FOUL PLAY- Verbrechen!!!

[ktfoong72]

my favorite ballad ...back then...& now ..still..

[poomica]

great job and great song.

[firegirt91]

This brings so many memories. This is a perfect representation of what music sounds like. What happened? I really miss songs with actual meaning behind them

[FistOfZen1126]

@chloefoe

why did you send this to me?

[RandyMedion]

this was music, music today is shit

[jmmb72]

Very nice

[dropbeatsnotbombs16]

amazing

[peabodymister]

i'm american and i wish they had played this here. i love the german language and i study it, so it would have been a double pleasure for me. even though i can only understand it a little bit, the emotion and music is moving. great song from falco

[babyzach2012]

this song should be on the radio now, 10 times a day, and the video ( english version of course) should be plastered all over the news..Even back then Falco knew what was going on. Thanks Kirkh70. Does anyone watch NANCY GRACE?

[Carrot101]

The pics were scary :O

[Saler3004]

King....... Forever in our hearts.........

[uilkeveenstra]

Yes, indeed a great song!!

But why is it censored??? I am missing the lines

"Jeanny, eat your shit away, Jeanny, after you said your prayer, and realise your smell gone bad, with that shitload of crap in your head"

I really regret this, it was my favorite part.

Rest of the song sucks ass.

[Yamahazzu]

One of the greatest songs ever have done..

Great info included..

Thx 4 uploader

[poesa12]

since my mom came with this song to me.

I adored it.

i was 7 years old !

now im 18 and still love it~!!!

[boze77wolf]

On your channel you say that you are 30..

Want to be 18 again?

[poesa12]

lmao im 18 lolz when i maded that acount i was younger and couldnt watch violent video's soi just picked a age :P

[boze77wolf]

Maybe Fritzl and those other guy's took some inspiration from this song.

[bw99999]

Nice song ;)

[juicestar100]

i think 3 but not sure,its set back on the far side of the road.usually does funearalls but has great(not too expencive) food.looked closed on my visit but wasnt,if your there try it out

[juicestar100]

there is also a great coffe house /restaurant across the road from the graveyard,cant remember which gate tho,an i think there is 3 or 4

[limska7]

thanks for the translation . Beautiful song but tragic thought . Falco is still popular now a days .

Hugs from Serbia :))

[MrsSlumdog]

You did a great job with this video!! I've though the original video in my faves because I was back then and until now mesmerized by the song and the perfomer Falco was. The Dutch Bolland&Bolland brothers are the producers and the song was a big hit in the Netherlands. I believe nr 1? It's a great song despite what's about. It's so intense....

[Kirkh70]

Τhanks my friend,I did my best-)

[arcadiaduran]

@Kirkh70 thanks now i know what it's about.I believe i heard it in 1985 when i was a kid and loved it even though i did't have a clue what he was saying.I actually could sing it and i did'nt know what i was saying

[ardxx]

@Kirkh70 just great thx kirkh

[FireitupBedford]

@MrsSlumdog If you think this is good go checkout the live version from frankfurt 5-11-1986 that version smokes this one. IMO

[MrsSlumdog]

@FireitupBedford: I did! Great live version indeed. Thank you. It is a pity though it breaks off so sudden at the end because he did a great job love considering he was at the time very much on cocaine. Sad how his life ended as if it was meant to be. And we are still listen to Falco, gone but not forgotten.

[Kalimata101]

Falco was so under-rated in North America. My parents owned Falco 3, and I remember listening to it all the time. Now at 33, I'm rediscovering Falco, but more than that, really appreciating Falco as more than that Amadeus dude.

[69LSD]

We have translated this song in german class

great song !!

^^

seb

[queenastilon]

Interesting choice of images and a grand effort here. Thanks for the background info, about Falco and this number, but there's a bit missing.

At 12 seconds one piece of text ends "...the story of Jeannie" and the next bit then starts "...and possible murderer." Perhaps you could put this missing explanation of the story in the info?

[Kirkh70]

I know what you mean but it was my mistake that it;s impossible to correct now-)

[queenastilon]

Well, as I said, you *could* put the missing section in the info. You could add it at the end of the explanation, as "For anyone who notices a bit missing, here it is:.."

That way, interfering nitpickers like me can at least read it :)) Thanks anyway

[jleite5136]

@queenastilon

" "Jeanny", the third release from the album Falco 3, brought the performer back to the top of the charts across Europe. Highly controversial when it was released in Germany and the Netherlands, the story of "Jeanny" was told from the point of view of a rapist and possible murderer. ", in Wikipedia

[gablober]

I can't stop listening to this song.

<3

[Casiopeeaina]

In bratele tale

[Sinabell]

Ich finde es faszinierend, dass Falco als Österreicher auf der ganzen Welt so einen Eindruck hinterlassen hat. :)

War schon öfters bei seinem Grab, wenn ihr mal in Wien seid, seht dort vorbei... ;)

RIP Falco

[ObsidianHelios]

The song reflects the thoughts of a psychokiller -perhaps even rapist-of a young girl-prostitute perhaps.Great Song but lyrics are very controversial...

[DrumSticks1995]

A have a project at school. for German..

I have to Translate this song to Dutch.

I suck at german :S but my english is good enough.. xD this realy helps thx ;]

[yourzzzz]

sensitive

[alley326]

這首歌的歌詞好像變態殺人狂

難怪mv拍的那麼變態Orz

不過還是很好聽~

[evgl22]

so good!

[websurfer1001]

Great talent! A classic song from my tennage years. RIP Falco!

[angelagr84]

I simply adore this song and I've always wanted to know what the lyrics mean.Thanks for uploading!

[roxvify]

I agree with you!

[Puppycentral1]

didn't police think he was involved in Jeanny's murder just because of this song? he described it in so much detail, that they suspected him for a while...idk, but i remember when my mom showed me this song. i love it. =)

[Suedboy24]

er kam in der Dominikanischen Republik bei einem Autounfall ums Leben und obs selbstmord war oder nicht kp und interessiert auch niemand er ist nun tod und ändern tut sich daran auch nix und muss sagen mir gefällt heute noch seine musik

[Michelle1kiwi]

Thank you so much for this! As a teen a friend gave me a Falco tape, Jeanny was my favorite song. I use to call radio stations asking them to play it but nothing. Anyway it's great to finally know what he was saying. Thank you......

[ryuken311]

@Michelle1kiwi i agree totally, i was a big falco fan back in the late 80's, loved this song, knew it was sad but after all these years its finally good to know what he said exactly.

[lakebay972]

Ich denke, dass Falco groß ist. Aber dieses Lied ruinierte seine Karriere. Dieses Lied war nicht ein Hit in den Vereinigten Staaten, weil niemand hier Deutsches versteht.

[LuiLuz999]

So ein Schwachsinn. Riesen Mist was du da von dir lässt. Weil es in den ach so tollen Staaten nicht ankam heisst das, dass dieses Lied seine Karriere ruinierte.

Habt ihr in eurem Wahn von eurem tollen Land mal an sowas wie nen Globus gedacht.

Des wegen mag kein Schwein die USA....arroganz gepaart mit unwissen....jap

[J8C7N]

Also ich mag die USA. Die Arroganz die die Europäer (allen voran Deutschland und Frankreich) den USA entgegenbringen find ich mindestens genau so unsympathisch.

[MegaCancer91]

falco!

[2FuriousFreak]

Haha, what a random....i planned exactly the same. xD Well, not bad. ;) Since i know what a trouble it is to find the PERFECT translation xD

[bun4yamin]

hat folco selbsmord begangen ??

[ElBoundy88]

nein er ist infolge eines unfalles gestorben

[moxsen]

Πρωτη φορά καταλαβαίνω ποσο καθηλωτικός είναι ο στίχος..εκπληκτικό τραγούδι! Ευχαριστούμε για την μετάφραση.

[paul3allen]

i have seen for the first time this clip in 2005

now it is a huge revelation for me falco is now my god !

[bun4yamin]

das man hat selbmord oder was ??

[Lilithly]

@bun4yamin das man hat selbstmord? was soll das bedeuten?

[lovewesner]

einer der wenigen lieder der gänsehaut garantiert ...

[777ANGEL7777]

Very good!

[Maxholding]

Vielleicht hast Du sie da oben wieder gefunden....

R.I.P

[Mega70s]

Niemand wird dich finden

[markinlc]

Falco was way ahead of his time- this song was always one of my favorites. I was there, back in 1985. My jeanny had a different name, though. Es bringt mich viele Erinnerungen.

[Meskiagkasher]

@markinlc: you were a stalker, rapist, psychopath??? do you at all get what the song is about ?

[samerox]

My uncle knew him in real life.. from what I heard he was really nice man..

[omgitsdebbie]

ich liebe dieses Lied SO VIEL!

falco wird für immer am größten sein (:

[angelitto82]

[niggok]

Falco....

Rest in Peace...

[roodwit67]

The song will always be heard. My parents told me about the song and I know now why the song is made.

[Elisabeth1903]

This song has Dutch producers, Bolland and Bolland. They're doing backgroundvocals as well. They were my homies and they were even on the same school as I was. (Not at the same time, they're much older, LOL)

[AnzeBabs]

i just love this song. nice with english translation, cause my boyfriend dosent understand german (:

[edleew]

Falco rocks on ! Here on youtube for always ! Respect to the Man ! PeaceEddy

[villavitalfighter]

where is the original video i can´t find it

[Defcom96]

@villavitalfighter,

I have part 1&2 with original video and English Translation

[elatlover]

Omg...What a charismatic singer in the 80s...glad having seen him live in Vienna once.

Or should I say a l i v e ?? Since he couldn't withstand the abuse of cocaine and ended up in his car wrecked in an accident in the Dom.rep. So sad..another loss, so young...R.I.P.

[nadygord57]

lucky you.. seen falco alive and live in vienna.... i envy you.. sadly in the 80s we didnt have falco close to us in southamerica where he was number one too... well he died and went to heaven in dominican republic.. closer to us.. i miss him a lot.

[pauloclio]

Great work with the translation... Tks
