Learning the words can be done by watching the video, the third to be directed by the duo. Beginning in 1992 as Darlin' with Laurent Brancowitz, the group disbanded in 1993, and Bangalter and de Homem-Christo formed. The duo has been influential in the dance and French house genres of music.

Daft Punk were a French electronic music duo that recorded over 90 songs between 19. Daft Punk have made bangers on bangers, but this is probably the most. Their list of credits is limited to a handful of tracks by big name artists. It’s also been sampled by the likes of Busta Rhymes, Nicki Minaj, Will.I.Am and Hannah Wants & Chris Lorenzo.
