[Verse]
Last night I had a dream about you
In this dream, I'm dancing right beside you
And it looked like everyone was having fun
The kind of feeling I've waited so long
Don't stop, come a little closer
As we jam, the rhythm gets stronger
There's nothing wrong with just a little little fun
We were dancing all night long
The time is right to put my arms around you
You're feeling right, you wrap your arms around too
But suddenly I feel the shining sun
Before I knew it, this dream was all gone

[Chorus]
Ooh, I don't know what to do
About this dream and you
I wish this dream comes true
Ooh, I don't know what to do
About this dream and you
We'll make this dream come true

[Bridge]
Why don't you play the game?
Why don't you play the game?

Daft Punk

With their thoroughly modern disco sound — a blend of house, funk, electro and techno — this French duo was one of the biggest electronic music acts of the late 1990s and 2000s. Guy Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter wore shiny droid costumes at every live show (and only allowed themselves to be photographed in said costumes) but their music was only sometimes Daft Punk were as influenced by rock bands like AC/DC as they were by classic disco acts (Chic’s Nile Rodgers even collaborated with them for their hit 2013 single, “Get Lucky”). Not only were they prolific creators, but some of the best collaborators in the industry, producing for and working alongside artists such as Kanye West and The Weeknd.

On 22 February 2021, Daft Punk announced their retirement through a video titled “Epilogue,” featuring footage from their 2004 film Electroma and the orchestral version of “Touch”. It marks an end to the incredible journey they had in influencing the world of music, with just four studio albums released over the course of 28 years.
