I feel like the robots have all just died
Understatement of the year Talk is basically an homage to Kraftwerk. It's been an odyssey. Kraftwerk's "Radioactivity" in 1976 Fast forward to 1991: Wasn't until I saw them in 2004 and they made it explicit what the robot was saying: Fast forward to 2019 and they're no longer mentioning Hiroshima because, well, that one was intentional. That was some bleak-ass shit.Coldplay used a section from Kraftwerk's Computer Love in their hit Talk
Thanks for putting that sequence together - hearing the evolution of a single song like that was awesome.
Man, you shoulda seen it. It was the Hollywood Bowl, the shittiest, most pretentious venue I have ever been to, and they're rolling into Radioactivity, and everyone's hootin' and hollerin' like polite yuppies who pay for valet and get a wine and cheese tray delivered to their box seats and then Fu Ku Shi Ma And you coulda heard a pin drop. It was like ohhhh, fuck. This is what they were talking about all those years.
