"She's a POLL And She's Looking Good": Kraftwerk, The Man-Machine

re: Spacelab and Metropolis, i love those songs but i think the only reason i put them at a slightly lower tier is that that remind me of other music of that period. moroder, yes, but also some prog and tangerine dream and all sorts of stuff.

i suppose you could make a similar argument with the robots and especially the model, which use more conventional song structures. but they're both such monuments of electro-pop, imitated so many times, they're absolute classics. and then neon lights and man-machine are just off in mindblowing trailblazer land
