For anyone who is unsure, this comment is a reference to the song title of an actual unreleased demo Daft Punk made.

The recording itself was made sometime around 2012 but was only uncovered in 2018, by Randy Goffe (aka HOME - Resonance), an electronic musician from southwest Florida. However, the clip Goffe retrieved was only 27 seconds which lead many people at the time to believe that was all the duo had made on the song.

But what is believed to be the whole song (or at least the version before it was scrapped) was eventually uncovered, being 3 minute and 44 seconds.

If it hadn’t been scrapped, the song would’ve released in Daft Punk’s album, Random Access Memories, but it seems the duo scrapped the song as it didn't fit with the aesthetic and style of the album. The album released a year after the song was created.

Perhaps if the song was conceived earlier in their career, it would fit in better with the rest of their catalogue, but alas, it was not so and all we have of the song, is what was retrieved.

If you want to listen to the song, the whole uncovered audio is available to be listened to here.
