[Life is a rock, but the radio rolled me...]

Adding my two cents here (plink, plink).....
(First, an apology for the deluge of articles.  I just finished catching up
on about 200 articles.)

The album "Computer World" by one of my favorite bands, Kraftwerk, has songs
where the lyrics sound like they were written by an elementary school pupil.

     "I'm the operator with my pocket calculator"

     "I program my home computer / Beam myself into the future"

     "It's more fun to compute"

The music on this album is a little bit too "techno"; give me the good old
days when they sang "Wir fahr'n fahr'n fahr'n auf dir Autobahn".

"Hier spricht die Stimme der Energie..."
(Here speaks  the Voice  of Energy...)
