Daft Punk: Technologic Meaning

Song Released: 2005

Technologic Lyrics

Buy it, use it, break it, fix it,
Trash it, change it, mail - upgrade it,
Charge it, pawn it, zoom it, press it,
Snap it, work it, quick - erase it,
Write it, cut it, paste it, save it,
Load it, check it, quick - rewrite it,
Plug it, play...

   This was described to me as the actions (or commands) taking place in a microprocessor. The simple steady beat represents the processor clock rate. Essentially what is a computer thinking. Some of the lyrics go beyond machine operations (e.g. upgrade it) but with the machinelike voice this is the most satsfactory explanation I've heard

   It has a large meaning, it represents the different uses in technology from 1993 to 2005

   This Seems more hypothetical than what you could say about being about technology :P

   This song doesn't really have a meaning as such. It's just going through a list of commands like "fix it" "rewrite it" etc in a monotone way. I guess you could say its making a statement about how technology is dominant in our lives? like when it says "quick upgrade it"

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
