Name that Tune

When told to “Name that Tune”, I jotted down the lyrics that I could hear in class, and came up with:

"...stare at the TV screen...

I don't know what to do...

I need a rendezvous".


With those lyrics, I searched on Google and found the:

Song Name: “Computer Love

Original Artist: Kraftwerk

Released: July 1981


Yahoo Music Biography said Kraftwerk performed their “robot pop” solely with “electronic means”. Yahoo also mentioned that “the members of Kraftwerk even publicly portrayed themselves as automatons (Man Machines)”, and continued their rise of technology thoughts. The other song was also “Computer Love”, a Kraftwerk cover, by Glass Candy. With the lyrics by Kraftwerk, the 2 artists convey the thoughts of the future, a future filled with a rise of technology. A time with computers ruling the world and becoming the leaders. Glass Candy’s recent 2007 release still shows the thoughts that Kraftwerk has about the future and about computers.
