Daft Punk 'Get Lucky' Music Video: New Album 'Random Access Memories'' First Single Gets Amazing Fan-Made Video On YouTube

Daft Punk fans are nothing if not crafty. After the "Get Lucky" trailer was released countless bogus fan-made leaks surfaced (many were just loops of the audio from the teaser but the fake put together by SONiC 102.9 in Edmonton had verses and everything). Now that we have heard the full track for real for real, Daft fans are moving on to the next step: creating their own music videos. This fan-made music video from YouTube user MyMusicalTalent TM is particularly inspired.

The video is composed of clips edited together from the Daft Punk film Electroma, Pharrell William's short film Ecology of Love and the aforementioned teaser. The film is genius in that both sets of clips seem to convey the members of Daft and Pharrell driving out into the desert for a jam session (Pharrell also has...other reasons.).

While it's pretty easy to distinguish where most of the cuts are (Electroma is crisp, The Ecology of Love is grainy and sun-tinted), the jump between EoL  and the teaser's desert scenes are virtually undetectable if you aren't looking for them.

"Get Lucky" has taken all corners of the internet by storm. After the initial wave of fakes subsided and the official was released to the public, the track broke Spotify records for most streamed track in a single day. The disco throwback knocked the crown off Macklemore and Ryan Lewis' novelty rap hit "Thrift Shop."

Daft Punk had this to say when speaking on the song to French magazine Le Nouvel Observatuer:

"Pharrell Williams sings this song: it was natural to invite our album. It is a born performer, complete, which produces a lot of elegance. It has not always had the opportunity to show he could be a great singer, so that we can include it in the pantheon of legendary performers. There is no imaginary line that separate the great artists of the past and present who are all worse than before. We wanted to give the impression of being in a capsule in the studio, isolated from the world. One can believe in 1978, but our idea is to travel this music in the present and in the future, see what happens and see if this enthusiasm is contagious."

What do you think of the "music video" for Daft Punk's "Get Lucky"? Do you think the real thing will measure up? Are you going to grab their new album 'Random Access Memories' when it drops on May 21?
