From where I stand
Stockhausen is a widdling wally
And kraftwerk made tanzmusic
Which is obviously one of the best melodic pieces
Of 'eclectronica' (URGHH!) ever!
I mean what did KS do, invent synthesis or something?

From where I stand, they didn't. Kraftwerk are a gleam in the milkman's
eye
without Stockhausen. Because more people know their names does not make
them more influential.
