Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kraftwerk's "Planet of Visions" are short and repetitive, with only a few phrases being repeated throughout the song. The first phrase, "Detroit, Germany," is a nod to the band's roots - they started in Germany, but their music was heavily influenced by American electronic music, particularly that coming out of Detroit. The repeated phrase "We're so electric" reinforces the idea that this is a song about electronic music, and possibly even a celebration of the power and energy of electronic music.


The second half of the song introduces a phrase in German - "Das einundzwanzigste Jahrhundert" (The 21st century) - and the repeated phrase "Planet of visions." This suggests that the song is not just about electronic music, but also about the future and the way that technology and electronic music will shape the world. The use of German is also interesting, as Kraftwerk's music often incorporates German (their own language) and English (a language associated with American electronic music).
