Cracked on Daft Punk

Early Years: Rise of the Machines

Before Christo and Bangalter became Daft Punks, they were the guitarist and bassist (respectively) of an indie-rock trio called Darlin'. Bangalter described the music as "pretty average," but this is to be expected when you've named yourself after an obscure Beach Boys song. When a critic negatively described their music as "a bunch of daft punk," Christo and Bangalter were amused and would later use the phrase when Darlin' broke up.

It should be noted that Bangalter and Christo were not yet robots as of this point. Otherwise, their reactions would've been to hunt down and terminate the dissenting critic. This may be the reason why people don't talk shit about Daft Punk.

"You're entitled to your opinion, which I humbly respect. Prepare to die, meatbag."

Lyrical Masterminds

Over the years, Bangalter and Christo (who will henceforth be reffered to as B&C) have been ranked among Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and Fred Durst as two of the greatest lyricists of all time. [citation needed]

"Around The World"

"Around the world, around the world/Around the world, around the world/Around the world, around the world/Around the world, around the world" - "Around the World"

In Daft Punk's breakthrough hit, B&C tackled not just issues regarding the world, but the world itself. By subtlety repeating the words "around the world" one hundred and fourty-four times, B&C emphasizes not only the size of the world, but the sheer vastness of humanity.

The mummies symbolize the past, the skeletons represent greed, and the babyheads are just weird.
