Karaoké Giorgio by Moroder Daft Punk & Giorgio Moroder

When I was fifteen, sixteen

When I really started to play guitar

I definitely wanted to become a musician

It was almost impossible because it was

The dream was so big

That I didn't see any chance because I was livin' in a little town

Was studyin' and

When I finally broke away from school and became a musician I thought

Well now I may have a little bit of a chance

Because all I really wanted to do is music and not only play music but compose music

At that time in Germany in sixty-nine, seventy they had already discotheques

So I would take my car

Would go to a discotheque

Sing maybe thirty minutes

I think I had about seven, eight songs

I would partially sleep in the car

Because I didn't want to drive home and that helped me for about

Almost two years to survive in the beginnin'

I wanted to do an album with the sounds of the fifties

The sounds of the sixties

Of the seventies

And then have a sound of the future

And I said Wait a second

I know the synthesizer

Why don't I use the synthesizer which is the sound of the future

And I didn't have any idea what to do but

I knew I needed a click

So we put a click on the twenty-four track which then was synced to the Moog Modular

I knew that could be a sound of the future but I didn't realize how much the impact would be

My name is Giovanni Giorgio but everybody calls me Giorgio

Once you free your mind about a concept of harmony and of music bein' correct

You can do whatever you want so nobody told me what to do

And there was no preconception of what to do
