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.

Oh very nice. Where'd they go?

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 7 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Gary, Indiana

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 months ago

my condolences

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

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

Nope. Gary, Indiana.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

My Home Sweet Home!

[–] Thassodar@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Clearly down the street.

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I hear they get around

[–] Thassodar@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

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