Love this album. My brother @leslieplatt59 bought it in the original German and I always think their language suits the music so much better.
My favourite love song.
Computerliebe indeed! Haven't played this in years must dig out again.
It might be just me, but did Coldplay rip off the main melody of this for one of their own songs? They sound the same to me.
Good lord, yes!
@Enish Yes, Coldplay used it for their song, 'Talk'. To be fair to them, they were very open about it and Kraftwerk gave them their blessing.
@jaxxon I'm glad to hear that they acknowledged the source (and that Kraftwerk approves), otherwise the riff would have continued to rub me the wrong way.
They still sound fresh today.
