AUSTRIA 🇦🇹 Austro-Pop

Jaaa... die Ösis. The Aussies of Europe. Down Under from a German POV. Country shaped like a chicken wing. And guess what... they make music there.

Enjoy this little list of songs that are mostly about Vienna and being from Vienna and influenced by having been to Vienna once or twice, sung in a Viennese dialect... except when they're not.

I fear the only Austrian musician not from Wien is Andreas Gabalier. I joke... unless?

1. VIENNA CALLING - FALCO

Falco. The other Austrian that Americans might know.

2. BUSSI BABY - WANDA

This song is NOT about mpreg. You wish.

3. WIEN WORT AUF DI - GRENADA

Me when I'm German Billy Joel.

4. MASCHIN - BILDERBUCH

Perfect for a Indie-Pop jerk off sesh.

5. I AM FROM AUSTRIA - REINHARD FENDRICH

Debatable how proud Austrians should be... as a whole. Have some shame.

6. BA-BA BANKÜBERFALL - EAV

NDW rep.

7. HULAPALU - ANDREAS GABALIER

The rules are simple: each day of October corresponds to a prompt aimed at inspiring you. The goal is to share every day a drawing, a story, a memory, a photo, a collage or even a song inspired by the daily prompt!

Georg Kreisler, Das Mädchen mit drei blauen Augen (1955) / EAV, Burli (1987)
