Daft Punk interview in Japan (1/2)

[@건-r7c]

There is nothing more aesthetic than two robots with French accents getting interviewed in 90s Japan.

[@nicoleaguilar7841]

Nope both of you are wrong it was actually in 2003

[@KoltiraMemeweaver]

I'm very happy seeing/hearing this. Love DP and accents really interest me. Matsumoto is my surname too, but I'm not related to Leiji unfortunately lol

[@Marie-qv6on]

I don’t think enough people are talking about that beautiful quote from 0:53 : _The wonderful thing about music and animation is that they can both travel across all borders, cultures, languages, generations, and human races._

[@Xhanoir]

Is one of the best quotes of the interview. Also check, this was remastered and uploaded in 1080p 60p kzbin.info/www/bejne/o32zkoamZrZjr9k

[@keynanmartinez]

This probably sums it up kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXeYp2Sfd8qVaKs

[@KendylTV]

Maybe it's because they speak so rarely, but they have adorable French accents, ahem.

[@MotaaBotaa]

Daft Punk, robots with more soul than most human producers today

[@queendorky4517]

Thomas bot dancing, scaring some girls on the street, & falling asleep on the subway?! LMAO!!

[@minutehourdayweek]

Thats all what I need for the end of the hard day at school!

[@KoltiraMemeweaver]

I just can't tbh 💙

[@PalolaCorzzz]

this interview is a gift

[@DTBCProdigy]

Man ... Daft Punk will always always be the ultimate electronic artists. They're music is timeless and they're mentalities and perspectives on the world of music are above and beyond. Thank you Daft Punk for being an amazing inspiration!

[@noobie112]

After that tragic accident with the sampler in September 99', it is so good to see they got back on the horse and continued doing what they love. Also the doctors did a great job; they look wonderful.

[@Zz_topp469]

Aww he said I got my first keyboard AT christmas!! Haha! Aww..love these guys♡

[@Zz_topp469]

+Zay Jay You are missing "way" and usually if someone says I got something they don't say "at" Christmas they usually say "on Christmas" u know, like "I got this ON the day of Christmas" if you want to be specific...But hey I just thought it was cute because that's a way that I've never heard it before..😊😊

[@KoltiraMemeweaver]

I'm so happy to see this interview. It's so adorable and happy looking :D. I love DP. As a costume mask maker, lots of respect lol. It definitely isn't a pleasure to wear enclosed masks even w/ a balaclava underneath and fans/vents in the helmets.

[@nocturnal7345]

Never seen Daft Punk this silly and happy, lmaooo.

[@SgtColl]

I can't believe they got them to act in this documentary hahahaha

IKR

[@darkpoet25]

It was nice hearing about their background. I had no idea they had been working together for that long. What I like about them, is how humble they are and don't care about being 'stars' by creating the robot story. For them it's all bout the music and making dance and have a good time.

[@Pauudp4825]

This is maybe the 15th time I watch this! Seriously I L O V E these guys ^^

[@nocturnal7345]

Had to come here after what just happened. It sucks to know that we will never get another Daft Punk content. But I guess good things must come to an end. :'(

[@Phoebe5448]

Still keep coming back to this! Merci Daft Punk!! I've been a fan for nearly 20 years and they're still so inspirational!!

[@hoho12rei]

Daft Punk pranking at 5:00 Lol

[@theradioactiverose5338]

reebiwcn ik I'm like really really really late but yeh that was so funny

[@CertainlyCaro]

Daft Prank New channel on KZbin… _What do you mean prank videos are outdated? About time honestly_

[@edstella]

After hearing their voices put through so much in their songs (which I adore), hearing their real voices was a treat. They sound absolutely charming.

[@cayakdawson2020]

5:10 to 5:24 I'll I came here for XD

This is one of the few videos on youtube that's actually worth my time watching

[@minutehourdayweek]

I love that Thomas has light accent and Guy has strong accent coz he dont talk much

[@slimaneismailli8732]

France have a big respect for Japan

[@fistOFjustice91]

Cuuute as helllll.

[@wilhelmcooning]

The rarity of their interviews make them feel special.

[@supaikudayo]

2:19 '....and after, we were really good friends' yes, yes.. we can see that ;)

[@jameshoward1349]

7geez these guys are incredible. the Alive 2007 album is hands down my favourite live album and even beats a lot of studio tracks. i'm so glad they're doing the Tron: Legacy soundtrack. cheers!

[@RegularInvader]

I still have hopes about meeting them some day. I got the idea of making a leather daft punk jacket for my dog as her Halloween costume back in 2015. Who knows how they'd react if they saw it. Some cast and crew members of "Invader Zim" have actually met her when I took her with me and she was wearing her GIR suit sweater I made her. And I also showed her Zoboomafoo sweater to the Kratt brothers when I got to meet them back in September 2016 after they performed "Wild Kratts Live."

[@FlyiDCG]

truly intergalatic and so underrated. Theses guys are dope music...I have so much of their jams on my psp. I wish they would release their music on PSN.

[@BabyPyramidHead]

the fact that they're french makes me love them even more....

[@DrawinskyMoon]

It adds to the alien aspect of foreign.

[@Euroviking86]

Not only are Daft Punk phenomenal musicians (what is it about France and great electronica?), they are also very clever. Their robot image not only is identifiable, it also makes sure that nobody bothers them as the people they are in their everyday life outside their music, giving them more space for their music. I love how they are in character even in the studio.

[@reptyler123]

i like how thomas rests his head on guy's shoulder

[@DiamondPickHD]

On my Second birthday they had that "Accident" And... I... LOVE THEM FOR IT!!! They are the Best out of all artists (In my opinion) They are just truly amazing. I hope they do another tour :D

[@zm.9096]

I am really late but.... They are so cute! Who can't love them?!

[@dogwashthefirst597]

Interstella 5555 (the daft punk anime movie) was only 3 years old when this video was uploaded on KZbin.

[@itsbanex888]

They are so hilareous. I love their helmets, I wish I jad one!

[@TheForkU]

You will lead another decade. Same as others, I'm so proud of you

[@jackdawson5731]

That’s what I love about them they rarely perform they rarely give interviews and always wear the helmets in public gatherings

[@daftpunk278]

5:27 I love how Thomas switches which hand is on top like three times. hahaha love you guys![=

I love their story about why they wear the stuff. ^^ These guys seem real sweet. =3 Long live Daft Punk.~

[@unsm1000]

dAFT PUNK ANCTUALLY GOT ME INTO MUSIC, I USED HATE MUSIC UNTIL I HEARD THEIR MUSIC LIKE 5 MONTHS AGO

[@theyoungwaves]

0:33 - lol Guy waving, I found it funny. love them

[@theowl0120]

I like their helmets, and hearing them talk. I notice that thomas is more active and guy is more quiet, but they are so cool! Daft Punk 4ever!

[@ibrahimkharal9027]

finally found a Daft Punk documentary video : p

[@michaelmorales1475]

Ibrahim Aziz Search: Daft Punk French MTV Weekend

[@michaelmorales1475]

Ibrahim Aziz it came out in 2005, it has videos from HAA, Discovery, Homework, and more

[@alexitoyea]

this interview is so iconic its literally a piece of history

[@hamstercom23]

Well I lived through the 80's and let me tell you - there's just something special about these guys, beyond anything else in EDM in the past twenty years. It's a sad state of affairs when even people in their twenties aren't considered old enough to have opinions by muso bores who think their generation had it all (like every generation believes). They are the past, and the present, of electronic music...you would understand what I mean by those words if you knew what they actually do.

[@michaelmorales1475]

hamstercom23 cool

[@briancastellanosf]

I just cried reading this. I`m so proud of you :')

[@keynanmartinez]

These guys are DJ Gods.

[@shackleton555]

because they don't want to be celebrities, they don't want to be subjected to be treated differently because of their music. They dont want to be idolized. It's not pathetic its commendable.

[@SomeBlokeLol]

The most amazing, awesome costumes I've ever seen. Imagine walking into the room in the silver one's gear. UBER.

[@demichuus]

OMG when Thomas started dancing I died in lulz and cuteness. Oh god this is wonderful.

[@TheOfficialDannyP]

For some reason I really want to hug them :D

[@broskibrunches]

Still do? I know I do :)

[@fullmetalninja333]

their voices seem alittle shy compared to thier cute adorable image. oh well! how silly "we had an accident, and now we are robots" i still love them!!

[@nancycallen5540]

He also said there is a "chip" planted in their brains? Way cool.

[@timeparadoxxx]

haha aw, thomas rests his head on guys shoulder SOCUUUUUUUUUTE

[@Fofa_bett]

5:19 the cutest thing i have ever seen

[@Rustymonkfish2011]

Thumbs up for the most creative, original recording artists of all time.

[@cardboardlamb]

3:45 If anyone could find the original source image I would be VERY thankful.

[@teapeaa]

Ahhh these two cutiesss

[@wilhelmcooning]

I love their little explanation of how they became robots :D

[@tpkluesner]

Guy-Manuel: "Good lord Thomas you've been in the bathroom for like 20 minutes, we have an interveiw to do."

[@xXGuitarPickXx]

When Guy said that he got his guitar at 14 I freaked out because... I'm 14! Yay! DAFT PUNK IS SO COOL

[@Deyogee]

Thomas's dancing cracks me up so much xD

[@nancycallen5540]

Oh! No! I didn't know about this "accident".. with the keyboards. It seems their hands could have been damaged as well since they wear gloves all the time. (?)

[@Haveyy]

Theres a belief that in september 9 1999 there studio exploded and got scars so now they wear these helmets

[@randominus3887]

+Jordan Havelal in the doc, Dec 31st, 1999, they said they will become robots the next day, because of the millennium bug"

[@kasumiwilliams]

Thomas is so cute!! OMG i luv him he is so funny :D

[@RossStern]

I'm confused, if this video was intended for a Japanese audience, and was given subtitles for a Japanese audience, why the hell are they speaking English instead of their native tongue?

[@KoltiraMemeweaver]

Yeah, according to my grandmother from Shikoku. She has said France in general is very appealing to Japanese in Japan too, but English has more speakers. English is still something she struggles with accent wise even though she moved to HI in late 50s.

[@Baztation]

BEST VDO ON KZbin!!!

[@pepino77777]

lol 2:49 through 2:53

[@grantrithor]

That was a joke they made, the other reason is also that they don't want to be pictures, they just want to have the music to represent them.

[@DonViruta]

Hoy se separaron de manera definitiva y oficial 😭

[@shecorrupted2936]

Yes...shy... talented and special...very special...

[@Sebstrion]

Good Bye Daft Punk!

[@Bloncalma]

I listened to my first Daft Punk song at around 7, it was harder, better, faster, stronger, instantly became hooked.

[@Killsassin]

Could not stop smiling watching this

[@mar000m4]

thnx for clearing this to me coz i was going crazy with all my thoughts lol

[@svetaphantom]

Why does Thomas's dance start playing the rick Ashley song? (you know witch one) I love how Thomas pets Guy-man :)

[@UAFteen]

Daft Punk will live forever even when they're dead. The music keeps them alive.

[@killerluuk]

Basicly a fan from the beginning, got the CD's,DVD's posters etc xD lol ALIVE concert was best day ever for me.

[@SalamanderStar]

He he, every time Thomas does something funny Guy Man looks at him like WTF.

[@alenay7091]

Ahhh I love them soo much, not because I am star-struck or think they are hot or anything, it's merely only because they make such good music.

[@LeapLittleLionMan]

Thankies!

[@Robmeisterflex]

I would love to know more about them but also i dont in a way? Makes them more cool how we dont know alot about them;) hehe best band ever! Daft Punk all the way!

[@SoupLagoon]

what he starts talking about at 5:00 is very interesting, because this video was obviously recorded before the album "Human After All" came out.

[@MistressD]

Lulz, Thomas is such a camera ham, while Guy just sits there perfectly still. ADORABLES.

[@nname263]

Cheers for that mate. Faith in humanity restored :)

[@RadicalDreamerss]

Their accents are soo cute! :D

[@TommiTdi]

I have been a fan since for ever :)

[@TheUnownMaple]

I'm gonna be honest, Out of all pop, rock, electro, dub step artist like Skrillex, LMFAO, Deadmau5 and every other very new famous artist in this decade, Daft Punk is my favorite and will always be my favorite. I'm 10 years old

[@balli2195]

LMAO it's first album were making as robots. I love it!
