    RIP to Florian Schneider-Esleben. He founded the electro music group Kraftwerk, and it was my introduction to "New Wave" in the early 80s.

    I think this is better than the 2003 version that appeared on the album. Probably because Kraftwerk was still using hardware synths including analog synths available at the time...2003 was the heyday of soft synths and they weren't as good quality as what came before and afterward.

    I love this, and so does composer Paul Hindemith (RIP). Listen to the first movement of his Flute Sonate from 1936. The first measures are used note for note, in the same key. It makes sense, because Florian Schneider is a trained flautist. Both are masterpieces!

    I had to look it up for myself, here are the lyrics:
    [Verse 1] FRENCH-Francais TRANSLATION - ENGLISH-Englais
    L'enfer du Nord Paris-Roubaix (Tour de France, Tour de France) The hell of the North: Paris - Roubaix
    La Cote d'Azur et Saint-Tropez (Tour de France, Tour de France). The Cote d'Azur and Saint Tropez
    Les Alpes et les Pyrénées (Tour de France, Tour de France) The Alps and the Pyrenees
    Dernière étape : Champs-Élysées (Tour de France, Tour de France). Last stage Champs-Elysees
    [Verse 2]
    Galibier et Tourmalet (Tour de France, Tour de France). Galibier and Tourmalet
    En danseuse jusqu'au sommet (Tour de France, Tour de France). Dancing even on the top
    Pédaler en grand braquet (Tour de France, Tour de France) Bicycling at high gear
    Sprint final à l'arrivée (Tour de France, Tour de France) Final sprint at the finish
    [Verse 3]
    Crevaison sur les pavés (Tour de France, Tour de France) Flat tire on the paving-stones
    Le vélo vite réparé (Tour de France, Tour de France) The bicycle is repaired quickly
    Le peloton est regroupé (Tour de France, Tour de France) The peloton is regrouped
    Camarades et amitié (Tour de France, Tour de France) Comrades and friendship
    It's interesting to me when he says in the second to the last line: "The peloton is regrouped" Now, where have we heard that word a lot lately and what does it mean?
    In French, "peloton" literally means "ball," but it is most often used with the meaning "group." It's frequently used in the bicycling context, so the Peloton equals the main field or group of cyclists in a race.
    “Tour de France” was released as a single in 1983. The members of Kraftwerk at this time (most notably Ralf Hütter) were dedicated cycling enthusiasts and this song was intended as a homage to the sport’s most famous event. Shortly after the release of this song, Hütter was hospitalized following a serious cycling accident.
    This track was also notable for its distinctive drum beats, and the usage of bicycle sound effects as percussion. Its beats have been heavily sampled and mimicked by several generations of electro, techno and Miami bass artists.

I'm sure the original version came out a year sooner and that it pitched up a short distance outside the Top 20 in the UK charts in the school/college/uni summer holiday period in both 1983 and 1984,in some kind of tandem with the event.

    .75 speed is closer to what I'm hearing on this vinyl my dad has. It actually has the German version on one side and French on the other. I play it at 33 speed on my phonograph. Its lovely. The vinyl was bought in 1984 while he was in Berlin.
