For me personally, Bartos' version of computer love is much better than Kraftwerk's (comparong the live performances). This sounds so melodic and passionate. I love Kraftwerk's computer love, The Mix version is among my favourite Kraftwerk songs but this just sounds so much more passionate. Bartos adds so much to it, it's like you're floating together with him in an aether while he's playing it.

this sounds like nearly that original Kraftwerk version. I mean when Kraftwerk really recorded it. I think this is how they recorded it. Today I mean Ralf sings it and the other comes from records so I think that is the reason why there are differences between different versions.

Ich glaube, Karl brachte Songstruktur und zeitlose Melodien ins Kraftwerk. Seine Soloalben zeigen seine Stärken. Er ist ein Gratwanderer zwischen Klassik und Pop!!!! Seine Autobiographie ist sehr lesenswert und erklärt, wie er komponiert. Alles Gute für Sie, Herr Bartos.

Carl BARTOS doskonale radzi sobie ze śpiewem . I nie potrzeba tu żadnego Vovodera !

le pionner de la musique Electronique et leader du groupe Kraftwerk, sa musique est toujours reconnaissable et on aime. Bravo Karl et continue comme ça.

Bravo. KW are so much the lesser without you.

Bartos Rocks

This has to be the definitive live version of this song. It's perfect.

I think it's no coincidence that when Karl was credited with more Kraftwerk compositions (starting with The Man-Machine, I believe), the melodies were stronger and more memorable, and that when he left the band (after Electric Cafe/Techno Pop, and the Tour de France single), the melodies became weaker by the time Tour de France Soundtracks rolled around. Tour de France, while absolutely peerless in terms of sound engineering, had one strong melodic song, and that was Tour de France.

I just can't get how such a simple track can be so beautiful...

I really like Mr. Bartos' version of this song. I think this ver. is the best. It sounds really good, for me.

Jeder von Kraftwerk hat seinem Still und Jeder hat auch Rechte zu Singen was ihr wollten. Ralf, Wolfgang und ich finde sehr Gut zu genießen Jede Still. Bravo. Weiter so

The Spock of the music world

Happy birthday dear Karl!!! 🎉❤

The best version!!!!!!Computer love.

fantastic version, really gets right what the current one doesn't. I loved the 1981, 1991 and 2009 live versions, but the current KW version feels a bit limp and soulless. I love their other remixed versions, but in this case, Karl's is fantastic, and that slower, ending melody and bassline (which was also done by KW in 1981) is the perfect way to end the track.

Karl sings lead vocal on The Telephone Call for Kraftwerk's Electric Cafe. He left the band sometime between then and The Mix in '91.

PEOPLE LIKE US WHO APPRECIATE ELECTRONIC MUSIC ARE JUST ONE OF A KIND ! KRAFTWERK ARE GENIUSES AND MASTERCRAFTSMEN OF SOUND !

I`m still kicking myself for not going to his show when he played Osaka several years ago. Look what I missed!

My favourite Kraftwerk song

I need to measure my heart rate after listening to this song. It's too delicious.

Wonderful! :) A little bit more "pop-like" version, I think, but it sounds so nice and fresh, quite positive! However it looked to me Karl sang here a bit, em, rougher?.. This suits the song not very well; Ralf's voice sounded softer at least in original version of "Computer World" album. Although, who cares? - wonderful, just great piece! :)

He is not one of the original members of Kraftwerk, Kraftwerk was founded by Ralf and Florian only, but Karl and Wolfgang were part of Kraftwerks classic line up, and along with Ralf and Florian they have made the best albums of the 70's. To bad that all good bands always split, now there's only Ralf =(.

If kraftwerk wouldnt broke or just karl dont leave they would made better music Maybe they still could play anslog synthesizers

Thank you very much, dear! It's music from my teenage! I listen it when i was girl in the first love!

I am wondering: This is from 1981, there wasn't the Internet and computers were what they were. Still, I think about this night: My computer, few tequila, and this piece of music sound just like my life is now!

Bartos will kick everyones asssssss!

Genius....

Imagine a reformed Kraftwerk of Ralph, Florian, Karl and Wolfgang. i would literally jizz in my pants.

@solarflair7731

Жыл бұрын

I wouldn’t say he’s better, only because he IS Kraftwerk, and always will be. No longer officially on paper, but always in spirit, no matter how much Ralf insists on his own vision of Kraftwerk-whatever that is at this point, besides a living greatest-hits jukebox. Ralf and Florian were certainly the heart and brain of the man-machine, but Karl very quickly became the soul. And that lack of soul grows more noticeable with every remix-of-a-remix album…

i read on the internet that mr bartos left due to, what was it? oh yeah, creative differences. i think he was frustrated may be because he was not able to spread his "creative wings" hey, my 2 cents worth anyways. :)

He looks a little like Gary Numan, that is not a bad thing....😁

Are you being sarcastic? Bartos had some unkind things to say about Numan, particularly about him copying others. Personally, I think Bartos has a stick up his bum.

Computer Love is better with Ralf's voice.

bad. the best is just kraftwerk himself.

Wonderful song but Kraftwerk has the best version. This one here is a bit rudimentary.
