	like the quiz, but wish there was a bit more to the parameters. what does 'gained popularity' mean, exactly? not sure how to quantify it, though.

	Rock Me Amadeus or Vienna Calling? Eres Tu? Guantanamera? Also the '67 French song female was Jane Birkin not Brigitte Bardot. But nice touch listing the real title of Sukiyaki and Volare. Didn't expect that. And for accepting Numa Numa. This might work better as an audio quiz.

	Agree with AHK. The first two were never popular, the 4th didn't even hit Top 40 and the 10th and 11th were minor hits at best. Even Shakira's "La Tortura" hit higher than those and that was one of her lesser Top 40's.

	@rockgolf, I only just realised, due to your pointing out, that Falco actually followed up a foreign hit with a foreign hit. Not sure that has happened much in terms of consecutive foreign hits (if we're counting a #18 peak as a hit... I like it, but most people don't know it exists.) Most foreign hits are one-hit wonders, so it's amazing Falco was able to do as he did.
