  • БОГИ!!!

  • tobat best!!!!!!!!!!

  • Whoa, i kinda missed this song from em. Thx for uploading.

  • its the "same" as the intro to Europe Endless. Thus, the whole album is circular in its composition and thus "endless endless"....

  • This is good, I actually find Kraftwerk rubbish, but this shows they can do something interesting.

  • @ElectronicMusicUK

    rubbish?!?!... what do YOU do ?

  • @fgagne08 A very well known Trance DJ and, no, I wont reveal myself to you.

  • @ElectronicMusicUK

    anonymously, courageously well known? haha. I suppose you also have an eight-night performance at the MoMa in April?

  • @ElectronicMusicUK

    anyway, just prove yourself with what you do, there's no need to badmouth other artists. good luck.

  • @fgagne08 Everyone's entitled to an opinion, I just don't rate them. Pioneers they maybe, but to me they're dull. I happen to like this one"Franz Schubert", but not most of their other stuff.

  • this is art real art ..this is not regular music it is art on high level yuo can hate kraftwer you can love kraftwerk but if you know music and like music this is real music art .

  • so miss understood. i am no pretentious cunt used to listening to classical music but this as near perfect as music gets

  • these guys were pioneers.

  • ...masterpiece...

  • Always loved this...

  • @Potatious fuck you

  • Misfits brought me here. <3

  • @TheCuriousBee i've been searching all over youtube for misfits soundtracks, i've loved them all cause they remind me of the show (:

  • everybody talk this is repetitive..so what?

  • esas miradas son increibles ,donde miren se iluminara!!!!!!

  • if you "get it" then it is one of the most beautiful pieces of music, period. I "get it". If you don't then I feel sorry for you.

  • I love Kraftwerk :D!

  • this is endless europe

  • This was boring and repetitive. Not very attention-grabbing.

  • @redshark618

    It's not supposed to grab your attention. It's supposed to make you relax. Or think. Or stir something inside you depending on how this piece affects you individually. And it's supposed to be repetitive; it gives you time to recollect on that specific emotion that it brings.

  • I am going to play this for my children.

  • its a lovely rusty kind of lovely - the europe of the imagination

  • I don't get it. It's like 6 to 10 chords repeated over and over and over and over again, with the last minute or so adding some desperately needed creativity, but still falling far short of my base level of enjoyment needed to 'like'. About to click on another Kraftwerk song, God don't disappoint me now....

  • @Illumiplasty

    i will say something but i know it will be useless

  • @karoloandria try

  • Simply sublime! :o) Timeless!

  • one word for this: sublime

  • SIMON BELLAMY

  • M I S F I T S

  • @loz3vi :)

  • Makes a great lullaby. Can't wait to play this for my future children. There are so many beautiful songs that Kraftwerk have made that you could make a great playlist for baby. They're not "some techno group that makes oom-sih, oom-sih, oom-sih, oom-sih music".

  • Was Franz Schubert someone Kraftwerk named this song after?

  • @NintendoSegaSonyGuy Franz Schubert was a composer look on wikipedia

  • @wwfsmackdown11

    ooooooooh, come on, dude.

    it's pretty clear that this weird game console guy don't have the minimum knowledge. in school, at the music class, you get the basics about the world's greatest composers.

    now you tell him about wikipedia.

    it's obviously that he doesn't even know how to do a google search.

  • @razvanlp haha

  • how stupid! disactivating the embedded view! (you always get hits through FB; Now that this piece of acustic art will be deleted from the blog you will get nothing (hits) in return.. Cheers!

  • this melody sounds like recently made, but its from the late 70s! 30 years and still up to the beat, like a game soundtrack :P

  • continues with "europa endlos"

  • The foremost example that this group more has its roots in german classic romanticism than Stockhausen.

  • @leomulder

    I have only paraphrased what Karl Bartos and Wolfgang have said about this song in an interview with the German issue of the "Keyboards-Magazine" (09/98).

    In the end only Ralf Hütter knows for sure why he named this song after Franz Schubert.

    But I guess it has really something to do with the composing technique (resp. the melodies) of Mr. Franz "Unfinished Symphony" Schubert and the concept of endlessness in music.

  • Even if the band members were gay, would it even matter? I mean, listen!

  • Even if they were gay, does it matter?

  • @elanmak

    You're words are those of an ass, yet that conflicts with my perception you are also complimenting them, therefore I cannot argue >w<

  • @iluvagothkenny your*

  • @elanmak

    oh lawd thanks <:3 I was originally gonna say "You're an ass" and forgot to edit.

  • @iluvagothkenny I never said they were gay anyways man, all I'm saying is what difference would it make if they were gay? How would that make music worse?

  • @elanmak

    Why bring it up anyways? It's like suddenly going "it wouldn't make a difference if they were Jewish" when no one said they were Jewish, or said it would make a difference.

  • @iluvagothkenny Maybe I fudged up and commented on the wrong clip, somewhere somebody was calling Kraftwerk a bunch of gay nazis

  • @elanmak

    Actually, same thing happened to me once. Someone called them "nazi synthasizer", I replied, got flamed, and yet I never saw that comment again...Weird!

  • @iluvagothkenny I love Kraftwerk.

  • endless less less less

  • ...want to hear it on my funeral...!!!

  • @svrfsvp

    what do you mean by "real" ?

  • I have always loved this track. kraftwerk at their best.

  • Simply AMAZING!

    €ndlesss Quality ♫

  • muyy bacana..... sublime, arte...

  • love this song.this for my mother and my sisters may they rest in peace

  • @elilove6 i wish somebody dedicated postume kraftwerk to me :)

  • @elilove6 god bless

  • superb music!!!!!!

  • WTF r u all fucking mental or sumin stop being so ignorant and judging people from stereo types ffs this is 2009 grow up

  • Your grammar and spelling make it extremely hard to pull insults from your paragraph. It's not only that that makes your comment ironic, but the fact that you talk like a right wing nut job. You may be wondering what's ironic about your comment. Well it's that you sound like a raging redneck!

    Just enjoy the fucking music!

  • If kraftwerk ever had any political leanings it would be to the LEFT. The man-machine album in its image is inspired by the russian lenin-days futurist El Lissitski and the russian constructivism painet Malevitj, and deals with the sad anonymity of modern society, eg the tribute to Fritz Langs Metropolis.

  • Fuck you, you ignorant ass. Unless you've met these people in person your hardly the person to judge. Everyone that came out of Germany must be nazis right? Just like everyone from the UK is a stuck up ass hole with shitty teeth. Please, take your head out of your own ass long enough to slit your throat.

  • There is a way dobsondale's rant can be made almost bearable. Imagine those words in the mouth of Basil Fawlty. (Though I would underline "almost.")

  • @NoahCr hahaha shitty teeth, that tickled me.

  • What did I say?

  • Spacey stuff.....I like it!

  • the synth who wanted to be a violin

    the violin who wanted to be a synth

  • Beautiful , very eloquent take on it.

    Encapsulates the song and Kraftwerk's innovative and sublime homage to Franz Schubert.

  • well thanks,

  • may thay live foever

  • I seriously could not agree more with classifiedwaste71's post. Brilliantly put.

  • @dobsondale - ha ha ha - Basil Fawlty re-born :-)

  • im doing what the info says!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I tear up for some reason listening to this. I love the juxtaposition of organic, wooden instruments w/o electricity mixed in with electronica. It's humanity in the depths of technology, an aspiration for an age of culture and romance in a post-modern world. It's sublime and touching.

  • I used to love Europe Endless, This my fav though!!!

  • this is my favorite track off of Trans-Europe Express!

  • My brother got me onto kraftwerk in late seventies,he was is a great fan too.they are perfectionists i think!!!

  • I am a big New Order fan - you can tell that tracks like this were a huge influence - brilliant.

  • ...i.e.: Your Silent Face from Power, Corruption & Lies...

    "...a thought that never changes remains a stupid lie..."

  • I have this on vinyl too,its just Great THANKS I havent heard it for so long, Its my favourite from the album.Although i think ive worn it out now!!

  • Me too... what genius it takes to put such simple notes together so beautifully. No wonder it took them so long between albums - they had to get it JUST right :)

  • awwhhhhh!!!

    how electronic sounds and robots such kraftwerk can make you cry!

    doesn't matter if their music is about technology or people

    is always GREAT!!

    THANKS FOR POSTING :'D

  • OMG!! I LOVE, LOVE this song!! How hip and brilliant!! They were SO ahead of their time. I never get sick of hearing their music and I think this is very inspired and it inspires me to look at life in a more open and creative way. Thank you Kraftwerk.....

  • Pure magnificence..! Kraftwerk are all time musicians and innovators! =)))

  • where can i get this tune? it's apparently not available thru amazon

  • I refuse to get rid of my vinyl copy of this album!

  • This music is from Heaven. It's celestial.

  • This is the only song ever that makes me cry just for the sole reason of being absolutely beautiful music... Then, the albums ends with Endloss, endloss which gives rise to the silent happiness coming from within you. Why aren't Kraftwerk medaled as biggest musicians of 20th/21st century? So many musical awards worldwide but none for them...?

  • @ivanarsenijevic

    These so-called "music awards" have long lost their meaning. Today it's the popular vote that counts, and a lot of those awarded "artists" have long since passed into obscurity. I won't bother with examples.

    There's plenty of highly influental musicians, Devo for instance, who were very influental but never got much of a public recognition.

    Anyway it's not just in the music industry a lot of innovative pioneers go un-noticed and without some awards.

  • @ivanarsenijevic because awarads go to some pop-shit-one-season-wannabies who get forgotten soon after recording studios make their profit off them and dump the expendable talent-less trash to create another "best-selling superstar of the summer 20XX".

  • All of Kraftwerk's music is elegant.

  • Truly beautiful.

  • Vielen Dank - gibt es sonst ein Land, daß man so lieben kann, trotz allem?

  • I have one question: Is Kraftwerk's "Franz Schubert" original song by Kraftwerk - or is inspirated by some Franz Schubert's symphony...

  • Good question. I know his symphonies 1-8, but, maybe I`m wrong, can´t recognise it here. However, the early Kraftwerk of the mid 70s (and before) was deeply inspired of the

    19th century german romantic (Schubert)period. Examples for their romanticism are:

    Mitternacht..Morgenspaziergang­..Tongebirge..

    ..Kometenmelodie (All here on YT)

  • Hmmm, I`m afraid I`ve edited my post a bit too much ( because of the 500 character limit ) I hope it`s still somehow understandable.

    Anyway. I´ve tried my best. ;o)

  • @Nagelbrett at last a real intellectual profound remark of this gods.

  • @Nagelbrett

    an Kraftwerk

  • @Nagelbrett Arguably Schubert wrote those famou,s beautiful, lenghty movements, yet the term "Unendliche Melodie" was coined by Richard Wagner to describe his own music.

  • Yes the music is full of emotion. Im so glad I found them.

  • great

  • This music-piece is SO beautiful. I am happy for all the people that have heard it.

    The genius of this piece is the hypnotic combination of the repeating synth-sequence and the distorted sounding classical music.

    Together with Europe Endless the best pieces by Kraftwerk. Thank you guys...

  • I totally agree with you - those two tracks have always been in my personal top 10, which varies greatly from time to time.

  • @2glenside - thanks for posting this, it's years since I played this album. I also like the Neu! tracks you have posted too - I will have to buy a vinyl copy of Neu! 75. Cheers, Paul

  • @2glenside Care to tell us your personal top 10? You seem to be a man of refined music taste.

  • So beautiful.

  • Sublime song! Thank you, Kraftwerk! Thank you, 2glenside! I wait one year in Youtube for this moment!

  • "We few, we few and happy,we a rank of brothers..."

  • This is the song of my life.

    Deep and hypnotic.

    I am this song.

    Thank you, Kraftwerk, thank you very much, and sorry for my very bad english!!

    Ciao!

    gerardo

  • This is the song of my life.

    Deep and hypnotic.

    I am this song.

    Thank you, Kraftwerk, and sorry for my very bad english!

    gerardo

  • Franz Krafwerk Europa Endless Endless Dream...

    Just perfect...

  • Believe it or not but I guess this tiny piece is my favorite on the entire TEE album

  • I love this track so much.
