[Nafoute]

I'm always coming back to this video

Infectious

[xraycortina]

whoever said that the germans have no sense of humour???

[bpoag]

I finished watching this 3 minutes ago, and i'm still fucking laughing!

PLEASE make another!

[ROBOTkw]

Too KuTe! :]]]]

[Kraftwerkification]

We are ze robots!

[avoidantconsumer]

love.

[zerozander]

What's the name of the song that starts at 0:50?

[yootoobah1]

It's More Fun To Compute. last track of computer world

[Kraftwerkification]

The name of the song is "It's more fun to compute".

[hotelmario510]

That was very funny.

[russallert]

Judging by Wolfgang's book, interviews with Karl and Florian's recent departure, I think Ralf's portrayal here as Robotführer may be pretty close to the truth. Maybe he really did reprogram them, just as he threatened to.....

[Rockulaproductions]

Just wanted to point out that I am the only dork to notice that the Senor Coconut version of "Neon Lights" was used at the end

[tonksloopy]

this is pure gold xD

"we make robot snacks."

*toast*

[unisonologia]

se supone que es divertido???

[karoloandria]

si! y mucho por que es kraftwerk

[unisonologia]

Creo qeu estas en un enorme error, machucao... Kraftwerk no es divertido... KRAFTWERK ES BUENO... bueno sin contar el patrimonio que heredo a todo el concepto de music popular en todos los estilos musicales, tanto en escena, como la Produccion y la forma de hacer musica hasta la actualidad...

[karoloandria]

admito que eso es cierto

pero me sigue gustando la idea de una comdia con kraftwerk

[jimmcgonigal]

Love it

[yootoobah1]

i wonder when this would have been made? i guess around 1983. cos they talk about the robots and the man-machine and then they show it's more fun to compute and they also show tour de france so it could even be after electric cafe but it's definitely 1983 or later......

[hotelmario510]

Woah...that does not compute, my friend.

[drjakturbo]

@yootoobah1 Um am i the only one who notices the Vh-1 logo during the tour de france snipplet @ 1:22? This is just a clever re edit of old Kraftwerk footage from the manmacjine video's and so on with an added laugh track. Any one could have made this judging by the style of VH-1 logo i would say this was made in 2009 and is not an actual sit com and Flur is spelled wrong this is a funny fan video nothing more...

[fatalcze]

Zis is grreat!

What's the video at 2:27?

[yootoobah1]

showroom dummies. it's at the bit where the lyrics are 'We go into a club and we start to dance we are the showroom dummies," etc.

[yootoobah1]

I LOVE IT! but they spelt flur wrong....

[commanderkruge]

@yootoobah1 You spelt Flür wrong too! Nyanyanya! :D

[ZX71K]

Excellent! Love it.

[grhysman]

too good

[Conorbk]

Brilliant. Funniest thing I've seen in a long time.

[paulchillage]

You should be so proud of this its genius. Well done :-)

[karoloandria]

will be awesome if kraftwerk have a tv series like the monkees or the beatles movies

[FABCASTLE]

hahahahahah That´s for sure LOL LOL LOL

[sas147741]

We are the Robots!

[freakpower2008]

Two great things about Kraftwerk... they're work has inspired so much creativity in others (hip hop etc, too many to mention and in this vid) and they're black humour delivered in deadpan style... Geddit ?

I think they would appreciate the joke.

[alainfromfrance]

great ! give more..

[mattfury]

Good, but I expected more.

[Nafoute]

Best YouTube video ever

WE WANT MORE !!!

[djbethell]

Do the hustle. Perfect!

[ProjectFlashlight612]

Brillyunt. Words fail me to describe the win this video contains. Hilarious. As others have said, even Ralf und Florian would find this funny. 5 STARS, EASY! DO MORE!

[commanderkruge]

I can't speak for Ralf and Florian but I know for sure that Wolfgang and Karl definitely like this clip! :) Again: A Masterpiece! :)

[flowerlove79]

that's great! PLEASE make another one soon. my eyes are still watering.

[SirHawkeyeWho]

OMG! You rule this is amazing. Ralf and Florian would so love this.

Wir Sind Die Roboter =]

[Nagelbrett]

This is hilarious! Awesome work mate.

Can`t wait to watch the next episode of this sitcom!

[ALXXMaXX]

Complete incongruity. Reminds me of the concept of "Hee Haw, the Next Generation".

Sequal plz.

[MrKraftwerk1]

What the heck, this is a mockery of Kraftwerk!!!!!!!!! I am pissed at who ever made this!!!!!!!!! MORON!!!!!

[bessadale]

I am pissed at people without any sense of humour. Come on, even Ralf would love it.

[commanderkruge]

@bessadale I don't know about Ralf, but I know from their first hand reaction that Karl likes it and Wolfgang ROFLed about it. :D

Since it's been uploaded this has been my favourite KW spoof ever - even beating the awesome "Hokey Kokey" by Bill Bailey - although only by milliseconds.... ;)

There's a huge difference between a "mockery" and what I'd call a "loving parody/homage" - and I believe this one belongs in the second category for sure. What do you say, bracestower?

[1533Montaigne]

und Wolfgang Fleur bedankt sich ganz herzlich für die schöne Blümens auf die Flür.

[Finsterlich]

Genial

[Kraftwerkification]

Wow! You must be very rested minded. This is awesome though. Good day!

[bracestower]

it's a mistake. I only just realised. When I was making it I had a feeling it looked wrong somehow, but it got lost in the 101 other things I was trying to edit.

[commanderkruge]

Never mind, actually the "Fleur" (French for "Flower") made me laugh out loud - it works as an added little joke. :)

[SquEekyChe3se]

@bracestower

I dont see anything wrong with it, well, maybe the fact that I think theyre homosexual, but other than that, its good. really it is...:)

[commanderkruge]

Hehe - I only now noticed the "Wolfgang Fleur" - is that intentional or a mistake? The German "ü" is also written "ue", *not* "eu". ;)

[EthanThePerson]

Where is the footage of them on the bikes from?

[commanderkruge]

From the original "Tour de France2 video.

[kratzda]

it is from the Tour De France vid.

Wolfgang

[commanderkruge]

@kratzda I thought I'd mention this: kratzda is actually Wolfgang Flür himself. In person. For real. Seriously. No kidding. :D

If you are interested in how the *humans* behind KW's robot-image were like I *highly* recommend his book "I was a robot" - his autobiography. Reading it made me think that Wolfgang is a really nice person I'd love to sit down and simply have a chat with. And since then with a little luck I actually had the chance to do so and I'm happy to say: Yes, he really *is*. :)

[mahoutie]

Superb stuff.

[MMJxxxMORPHMEN]

waaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhh !!!!

* * * * *

[commanderkruge]

Sir, you just killed me stonedeath! :DDDD

Bloody awesome!

[Nafoute]

Excellent

[BloodScoreKiller]

That's very funny :)

The best is the danceclub.

Greetings from Germany

[jaymzerock]

Excellent 'werk!

[borgship]

a sequel is not nessesary, try a humourous video. just good. NOT a sequel. good and great work, thanks, i look forward to more.

[carlosalbertoteixeir]

Very good stuff. Thanks for doing it and uploading.

- c.a.t.

[JMJ015]

BRAVO!!!

[komputerwelt]

OMG. The dancing in the showroom dummies clip to the sounds of the hustle cracked me up. lol. they're the best.

[m1044]

LOL the choice of the music at 2:27 is hilarious Thanks for uploading :D

[nebula734]

wow, nice fake!

[Starrysky812]

Oh, this is hilarious. Too bad they only made a pilot, I would have loved to see more.

[phroggm]

The lounge music version of Neon Lights as the theme tune is excellent.

[edsoncbs]

Great! Most of Kraftwerk early videos are really so trash...

[KeepWerking]

Do I like this?

Maybe? Perhaps? Yes!

Keep Werking
