I searched the Internet for lists of the best songs by Kraftwerk. Criteria included the songs being ranked, not just listed, and generally created by groups, whether teams or committees or based on general public voting (like Ranker.com).
I was able to find 20 lists. I took the 20 lists and added all their content into a spreadsheet, noting the rank of every song. I ended up averaging the rankings each song got and dividing that average by a factor of the number of lists that song was on. The lowest score meant a high ranking average on many lists. The complete spreadsheet is attached at the bottom.
The songs that were on the most lists (out of 20) were:
- Autobahn (1974) – all 20 lists
- Computer Love (1981) – 18 lists
- Tour de France (1983) – 18 lists
- Trans-Europe Express (1977) – 17 lists
- Radioactivity (1975) – 16 lists
- The Robots (1978) – 16 lists
- The Model (1978) – 16 lists
