F3: FALCO 3 is the third studio album by Austrian singer and musician Falco, released on 15th October 1985. Following two albums produced and co-written by Robert Ponger, this is Falco's first album to be produced by Bolland & Bolland. FALCO 3 was the artist's biggest hit album because of the radio and video success of the song "Rock Me Amadeus". Falco burst onto the american scene with song ''Rock Me Amadeus''. You couldn't turn the dial on the radio without bumping into this song or a variety of alternate versions or mixes. Austrian genius Falco, whose real name is Johann Holzel, was born in Vienna, the son of an engineer father and a tourist mother. Falco's innate musical instinct allowed him to play the piano well at the age of four, and was called a child prodigy. He received orthodox classical music training, graduated from the Vienna Conservatory in 1976, and then lived in West Berlin for a short time. He joined a jazz/rock band to start his singing career. He took his stage name because he admired the skier Falco. After returning to Vienna, he joined the hard rock/punk group Drahdiwaberl as a bass player. In 1982, the first solo album Einzelhaft, in which "Der Kommissar" caused a sensation in countries all over the world. After watching the movie Amadeus, Falco was inspired to write the song "Rock Me Amadeus", which was included in third album FALCO 3. The single made a sensation all over the world. Originally released in 1985, FALCO 3 was out of print for years, until its reissue in 1996. FALCO 3 is his best and most popular album.

Following an Academy Award-winning film about Mozart, the Americanised mix of "Rock Me Amadeus" capitalised on and continued a resurgence of interest in the Viennese composer, and was an instant success in the US. The album was released in the US, the UK and Japan and a few other countries with a different track listing: the singles "Rock Me Amadeus" and "Vienna Calling" are presented in extended mixes, the Salieri Version (8:20) and the Metternich Arrival Mix (7:38), whereas in the rest of the world, the album uses the normal European singles mixes. A power ballad called "Jeanny" sung from the point of view of a rapist and possible murderer, proved a controversial hit in Europe. The album also included a reworked German-language version of the Cars' song "Looking For Love", titled "Munich Girls", as well as a lounge lizard cover of Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue". Despite all the songs boasting special mixes on the cover, these are all the normal album versions. The only re-mixes are to be found on the U.S., U.K. and Japanese version of this album, which contain the Salieri Version of "Rock Me Amadeus" and the Metternich Arrival Mix of "Vienna Calling" instead of the normal European versions. The 25th Anniversary Edition, released on 22nd October 2010, features six released songs in addition to the original, including a remix of "Jeanny" by Hurts and Falco. The Two-CD Deluxe Version has additional DVD with video material - The Making Of The Legendary FALCO 3 - Videos, documentary by DoRo, which also includes the famous Salieri Version of "Rock Me Amadeus" in an edited form, running short over seven minutes.
