Pocket Calculator

Only Kraftwerk could write a song about the pleasures of playing with a pocket calculator, and make it into a perfect joy like this. The whole Computer World album is superb, and this is a highlight of it.

Yay, i love my Casio pocket calculator!!! Anyway, i saw Kraftwerk perform live in the middle of the desert. I was walking through the sandunes and out of nowhere there was a stage set up with these robotik-looking men on the stage playing this song WHILST playing their calculators.

way to post that three times. GarethTKD what were you doing in the sand dunes? only kraftwerk would have a concert in a place totally isolated from technology and sing about calculators.

You HAVE to love this song. Cmon! It's genius. ^__^

japanese version goes like this

Boku wa ongakuka, dentaku katate ni Tashitari, hītari Sōsa shite, sakkyoku suru Kono botan oseba, ongaku ga deru

in german, they say the translaltion suppose to be : "I'm a musician with a pocket calculator in my hand"

in german, they say the translaltion suppose to be : "I'm a musician with a pocket calculator in my hand"

in german, they say the translaltion suppose to be : "I'm a musician with a pocket calculator in my hand"

If only my TI 89 had MP3 capabilities

I love this song.
