"Я твой слуга. Я твой работник."

И всё же нас когда-то уважали. :D

[iamthestig2100]

What's the Russian sounding Soviet speak in the middle of the song?

[ScottishCaledonian]

@iamthestig2100 Ya tvoi sluga, (I'm your servant) / Ya tvoi rabotnik (I' m your worker.)

[iamthestig2100]

@ScottishCaledonian cool. Never knew that.

[Holly963]

Fantastic!!!

[johorridoh]

As a 13 year old German kid,living near Chicago in 1979 for a year, I impressed my American classmate with this song. Playing it on my dad´s Bang and Olufson 2600 on a 45 record. Loud ;-) I know it was a totally new experience for him.

All American kids knew back the was ROCK ( DISCO was regarded gay)

[rasmuss25]

@johorridoh As a dane I couldn't help noticing you used a B&O record, which is great technologic. But yes this song is a big masterpiece of music, compared to much modern electronic music.

[mlovmo]

I wonder what Oscar Schlemmer would have thought of this? "Futuristic" German stuff is so attractive.

[Drastinpoz]

I love the way their roll their rs. Roboter-rrrr. Natural talent, or lots of practice? Or is it a German thing?

[MrArcadius83]

@AshleyMarkPomeroy

No, its not a Only-German Thing. I´am German and can not roll the "R" ^^

[prairiegrass100]

@AshleyMarkPomeroy Thats the German accent! My ex is German. They really accent their syllables and pronounce their words. They sound and act like machines, its kinda neat actually! Sexy.

[Wassilenko]

auf diese musik tretten wir in einer schule auf

[Ebag4711]

I used to listen to this when i was in my teens, i'm 44 now & it still has that modern sound about it.

Better still, this is the first time i've heard the German version, & it still sounds awesome,,,thanks.

[djmusicjac]

I totally love german synth, i love fact new wave is back, i am a total new wave german synth freak, i love the sound, and germanic vocals

[fredtheking350]

@kansasinnovember in 100 oder mehr Jahren werden Kraftwerk wie Beethoven oder Mozart verehrt. Kraftwerk sind der Vorreiter aller elektronischen Bands. KULT forever!!

[flipper2911]

@basementdweller1

You're right..."die Mensch-Maschine" without the lyrics the man machine machine machine...this would be a real strange "narrischkeit"...where did you get this word from? It don't really exist in german...but nevertheless, I get the meaning...maybe a dialect...but I like it very very much...greetings from germany ;o)

[TheTechnoPro]

@flipper2911 thats franconian "red nicht so narrisch daher" combined with high german grammar (-keit suffix)

[flipper2911]

I really love english... but for me (as a german)

it is a must to hear them in the original language.

In english it's not the same anymore. It sounds strange.

[FrankGosebruch]

Ey, endlich ma' die Original-Version. Supppa! Schade, Video gibt's nich, oda?

Danke!

[calcwb]

Pra Lembrar de um passado não muito distante. Logo ali...... rsrs pra alguns. claro....

[patruschk]

thanks for providing the german version :) finds sie einfach besser als die englsche.

[bigbigmo1]

@patruschk isse auch!

[pongau2]

@patruschk ,

Vor vielen Jahren, in Opole/Oppeln,

wir haben gesungen;

>jebana robota<.

Es ist nicht um "Kraftwerk" gegangen.

Um den Polen. Ob wir die Polen sind.

Recht hast Du. Original ist besser.

[winterplanmusic]

This is SO awesome. I love it so much!

[Turkisshh2]

check the other video

/watch?v=wHEoMpMvz7A&feature=r­elated

their music was so revolutional back then, that the people didn't even know, how to call it, giving it weird titles like "sci-fi music" and "elektronischer Rock"

[AutotuningMensch]

@6364gg2 normally Electronicalrock sounds mechanical ^^

[MovieStaree]

@AutotuningMensch

You are right, It has a nice analog sound to it(even tubes?). I think the older recordings are the best !

[memmelkopf]

ich liebe den Elektrorock von Kraftwerk!!

[r0tt1ng]

bilderbuch pattern.

[SocrateSatrapoulos]

one of their best. I really love it

[WOLFURDAL]

HEIL UND SIEG DEN GÖTTERN

[r0tt1ng]

vielen dank, du hast mir den morgen versüßt. xD

[PV5223044]

Thank you! I've been looking for this version for a long time.

[basementdweller1]

welcome

[6364gg2]

It sounds very mechanical

[321ooo123]

That's the idea.

[JacksRectum]

my father loves this one

[ClaasDirks91]

no its fucking awesome

greetz from Krautland

[BlutigerBaum]

no its industrialtechno !

[jungechristentv]

its like techno just they invented it earlyer KRAFTWERK 4 ever

[77mightyblue77]

It's Elektrorock :-))

[JacksRectum]

LOL

[Asator09]

well, kraftwerk were the first clearly mentioned band, which plays electro. And, comparing with other bands, i think it is electro

[basementdweller1]

i don't think you can categorize it

[lewis72]

...according to another vid on here, the German interviewer states that it's "electronische Rock."

[intirayami]

he says that it's "science - fiction musik oder vielleicht elektonische Rock"

[helraizer]

Kraftwerk dubbed it themselves as "Die Maschine Musik" which we can translate as Machine Music. We can sort of say today that it is Electro-Pop in a way.

[fejic]

what style of music is that?? it is not electro?

[furyplum44]

I always wanted to find the origional german version thanks!!!!!!!!

German version is best
