KRAFTWERK - Showroom Dummies

[Seantendo]

This is actually kinda creepy.

[SuperAgartha]

BRILLIANT...

[kraftwerkgal80]

(|||) (|||) look i made the bmw nostril thingies

[machiner6]

I just had a funny idea of parodying this video: Casting 4 members from Half-Life 2 (Dr. Kliener as Ralf, G-Man as Karl Bartos, Barney Calhoun as Wolfgang, and Dr. Breen as Florian) I thought the "Break the glass" verse could be exaggerated, as when that is announced, the music pauses, then shifts to a sub-machinegun shooting a window, then a grenade blowing away the rest. this is followed by display glass breaking. "We're being watched" is of citizens strolling by and a flying robot flashing.

[machiner6]

is Florian like doing the Peace sign at 1:12?

[sirjimtorbett]

shiny happy people...........

[showroommeryll]

I want to fuck you dummies all of you

Karl's dance is awesome!! xD

specially at 2:18 when he raise his arms and also his movements at 2:20 - 2:22 he's a very cute dancer and lovely man :)

[theseus27]

[ybot1983]

@ybot1983 like thats a bad thing sense of humour bypass

[MadeInFinland44]

2:00 What the hell is up with the dancing ? :D

[kraftwerkgal80]

KARL BARTOS! Please stop bumping Wolfgang with your elbow!!! You will hurt him and he will go to the hospital! :-*{

[showroommeryll]

@kraftwerkgal80 ahah

[kraftwerkgal80]

@kraftwerkgal80 pffffffffffff

[Haselfuchs]

Wolf Flur the sexiest creature on Earth, ever!

[kraftwerkgal80]

Fuck, YEAH!!!! He is very sexy, and when he dances, it blows me away!

[FreddiesMum]

I just can't take my eyes off him - there is just something about him that makes me tingle! Sexiest creature on Earth? Definitely!!

[kraftwerkgal80]

Wolfgang's dancing is very sexy. He might as well drive a Mercedes- Benz C-Class.

[kraftwerkgal80]

@kraftwerkgal80 no a BMW!!!!!!!

[WarFreak1020]

there music is awesome... but when I saw this video, I laughed out loud!!

[kentmorita]

Must be so awesome to have neon signs of your name! (lol random, but seriously... that's awesome)

[IceFloeHyoga]

BEST VIDEO/SONG EVER!!!

[ALXXMaXX]

"We're standing here...exposing ourselves"

This is one of my favorite bands ever, but that line just made me laugh out loud.

[Davaonline]

(ALXXMaXX): That line can be taken into 2 contexts, I get your laugh. :P

[stereoloov]

Before transformig themselves into robots,they tried as showroom dummies...a part of the proccess,I suppose.

[musicloverretro2]

great

[DaftJarre]

I like this version. It's a remix, isn't it?

[realVeemon]

it's a 7" (single) version

[robbiereindeerlover]

hahaha love kraftwerk, they're so awesome!

[dkdeu]

well, YES. Maybe in this video they seem psychos, but theyre GENIUSES!!

Ps: LOOOOOOOLLLLL!

[Iselsie]

It's not long enough, I want more! lol

[StrangeloveBong13]

Ralf ,Karl, Wolfgang and Florian dancing happys !!!, jejeje it's great, direct to my favourites

[LuxX63]

Splendidiiiiiii!!!!!!

[VeraNah]

if you don't like metal is okey but if you truly like Kraftwerk then check this awsm cover of Trans-Europa Express here: myspace . com / bigbeings

[pgrudo00]

these dudes are fuckin psychos

[IceFloeHyoga]

HAHAHAHA!!!

[pgrudo00]

they remind of serial killers. dahmer probably rocked out to this shit.

[grendelee]

someone should make a playlst, Dahmer Probably Rocked Out To This Shit

[hotcat86]

that dance in the end is simply psycho:D

Kraftwerk was always excellent.I love the video!

Trans-Europe Express is the other best (for me)

[SynthWho]

Kraftwerk had some of the coolest songs but the lyrics are just pointless in most of thier songs.

[badluckshadow13]

I wouldn't call the lyrics pointless. But then I suppose that's all in listener interpretation.

[SynthWho]

Yeh, I agree now Ive heard more of there stuff. Radioactivity or the Model has to be my fsvourite.

[hendrixonlsd]

Yeah i agreee with badluck. but This song is about how people said they looked like Showroom dummies, manakins, robots, when they were live. so its about something. lyrics aren't pointless.

[CrossCuntryFranco]

Pardon me for saying, but Old Kraftwerk is better than New Kraftwerk... (even better is Old GERMAN Kraftwerk)... I don't like their new material much...

[kaiserxp88]

i agree! the old Kraftwerk is beautiful, the new is very good but the old is the best of them!

[the13thmoon]

'Mannequin' is a French spelling for 'Maenchen'

or Mannikin where '-Kin' is the diminutive as

-'ula' in caligula-'Little boots' or bootikin...

'Shopwindow puppets' might be a better uebersetzung...Great song,innovative band,

Inimitable style.

[logang666]

my favorite song by them

mein liebenglied(?) aus kraftwerk(ich spreche ein bisschen von Deutsch)

[Hakamoto]

Schaufensterpuppen, please!

[01011101010001111010]

We are standing here,Exposing ourselves

We're being watched and we feel our pulse

We look around and change our pose

We start to move And we break the glass

We step out And take a walk through the city

We go into a club And there we start to dance

WE ARE SHOWROOM DUMMIES!!!!!!!!!!!!

[softcell19]

jajaja a huevo el baile es genial!!! krtaftwerk!!!!!

[maraujo1984]

KRAFTWERK DANCING!!! WOW!!! I've never imagined this four visionaries people dancing!!! Great video and perfect song!! I Love It!!! :)

[JenniferTaipei]

Thanks for your reply. I prefer Schaufensterpuppen better, because "Mannequins" supposed to be French, but it really sounds like German as well, I mean, the German accent is indeed too obvious. But "Mannequins" film is better. And I like Duran Duran's English version, they play this tune with their lovely way.

[JenniferTaipei]

Does this sound have German version?

[realVeemon]

yes,they recorded in original as Schaufensterpuppen,also they recorded French version called "Les Mannequins"

[namkenobi]

Totalmente de acuerdo con todos los comentarios. Es genial ver a Florian bailando un chachachá-merengue-cumbia. Ya tenía la idea de Señor Coconut..

[hilarioph]

I think Showroom Dummies music

are going to use it for the

next summer movie the transformers 2

on 2009. This music is going to

be great for the sequel next summer.

Comments?

[djindio555]

Schaufensterpuppen!

[michaelmoval]

dummies are playing electro-drums lol

[marcgindratt]

Kraftwerk Made The Most Beautiful Electronic Music Ever & This Video Shows It. I've Been A Big Fan Of Kraftwerk Since 1977 & I Love Everything That They Do.

[MDMister]

the german version (I think it's called Schauferstenpuppen) is better than the english one.

[voutespancar]

we are showroom dummies, so funny the german accent

[docterjoy]

Thanks, I love this song (and Karl and Wolfie)

[HazelHillsborough]

THANK YOU THANK YOU for putting this up! i haven't seen this in ages!

[southerncoldwind]

[ComradPanamar]

The last moments of Kraftwerk-people and the first moments of Kraftwerk-robots...

[BlueSoulJim]

[m1044]

Thank you so much for sharing this video.

[Starrysky812]
