RE: We are the Robots - Wir sind die Roboter [English/German]

in #art7 years ago

Heh, I lived through the 80s without ever hearing of Kraftwerk. Then I heard one of their songs on Mr. Robot, and I looked them up. Have been listening to their greatest hits a lot lately. And now my 50-year-old loves The Robots.

Awesome! If you had lived in Germany in the' 80s, you couldn't have missed them. At least because of their influence on electronic music in general, they are highly appreciated here. But it's cool, that you discovered them now: Better late than never; -)

Re-reading what I wrote: I meant 5-year-old! Yeah, they're good stuff. Also weird to hear that one of their songs was totally homaged/stolen by Cold Play.

Yes, Coldplay is not the only band, who borrowed from Kraftwerk. Usually they don't like this kind of tribute, though.
