"Jeanny" is a song by Austrian singer Falco, released in 1985 as the 3th single from his 3th album "Falco 3" also released in 1985. Written & composed by Falco & Rob & Ferdi Bolland, who also produced. Controversial due to its lyrics, the song nonetheless topped the charts in many European countries. The single re-entered the Austrian Chart in 2008 at N° 56 & in 2017 at N° 47. The song is about a relationship between a man & a woman named "Jeanny". When it reached N° 1, critics said the song glorifies rape. An outcry in German-language markets caused the song to be banned by some radio broadcasters or played with a preceding warning by others. Falco argued that it is about the musings of a stalker. The part of the "news flash" in the track is spoken by German newsreader Wilhelm Wieben. Several feminist associations called for a boycott of the song.
