“Around the world” aren’t the lyrics, they’re just another instrument. You wouldn’t say that the drum beat is repetitive, for example.
But drum is repetitive. That’s its function.
Just like it’s the function of that sample.
Yes I would. Daft Punk’s songs are boring AF, except for their work on TRON Legacy. And their movie scoring was only good because of the movie’s editors. The soundtrack on Spotify is boring too.
They’re no The Prodigy.
Virtually everything Daft Punk did was inspired by disco music.
What was the first mainstream Disco song?
Donna Summer’s Love to Love You Baby, in which she repeats, “I love to love you baby” about a million times.
This doesn’t seem right. Barry White wrote Love’s Theme around 1965, and released it in 1973. It also reached number 1 on Billboard, so I guess that counts as (US) mainstream.
Buy it, use it, break it, fix it, trash it, change it, mail, upgrade it, charge it, point it, zoom it, press it, snap it, work it, quick erase it, write it, cut it, paste it, save it, load it, check it, quick rewrite it, plug it, play it, burn it, rip it, drag it, drop it, zip unzip it. Technologic.
Technologic.
Fucking hell Bop It has gotten difficult
Around the world
around the world
Daft Punk weren’t really very good songwriters, but they made up for it by being fantastic producers.
I’ve told the story before, but I worked a MarketPro Computer Show & Sale a million years ago and was stationed next to a booth selling mostly speakers and stereo equipment where the booth owner had brought his 10-ish year old son with him. This son preceded to play “Around the World,” full-blast, through an enormous stack of display speakers, instantly filling the entire convention hall. Then he put the song on repeat. All day. No exaggeration, he did not play a single other song for the entirety of the 10 hour shift, just “Around the world, around the world… around the world, around the world… around the world, around the world” endlessly.
That kid is a legend of trolling.
I mean, if you are listening to Daft Punk for lyricism, you’re doing it wrong.
And yet it’s a million times better than songs like “Gucci Gang”

They’ve also got a song where the word “It” accounts for practically 50% of the lyrics.

“We should make a song that hits people at the emotional level, but I don’t know what words to use”
“Emotion you say?”
