The entire song is a single request. If you started dancing before the song was over, that's on you.

I'm just saying, it's a slippery slope. Daft Punk is famous for making repetitive requests. Here's the lyrics from their song "Around the World" that forcibly request that I travel where they so choose.

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 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 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 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

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 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 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 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

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 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 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 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

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 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 Around the world, around the world Around the world, around the world

I don't see a single word there that sounds like a request. I think that was just a summary of their latest vacation.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Oh very nice. Where'd they go?

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 7 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Gary, Indiana

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 11 months ago

my condolences

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Not Louisiana, Paris, France, New York or Rome?

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Nope. Gary, Indiana.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

My Home Sweet Home!

[–] Thassodar@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Clearly down the street.

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I hear they get around

[–] Thassodar@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The world? Like around the world, around the world?

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

I couldn’t tell you where I’ve heard it but yes I have to say that sounds somehow familiar
