"Daft Punk Is Playing at My House" is the fifth single from LCD Soundsystem, released on February 21, 2005.

The track reached #1 on the British Dance Chart and #29 on the UK Singles Chart.
The song was nominated for the 2006 Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. The song featured in the video games FIFA 06, SSX On Tour, Burnout: Revenge, Forza Motorsport 2 and the Dance Dance Revolution (2009 video games) games Hottest Party 3 and X2.
Famous quotes containing the words daft, punk, playing and/or house:
“I kiss, I clutch,
Like a daft mother, putrid
Infancy,
That can and will forbid
All grist to me
Except devaluing dichotomies:
Nothing, and paradise.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“When there’s no future
How can there be sin
We’re the flowers in the dustbin
We’re the poison in your human machine
We’re the future
Your future
God Save the Queen”
—The Sex Pistols, British punk band (1976-1979)
“If you would be a leader of men you must lead your own generation, not the next. Your playing must be good now, while the play is on the boards and the audience in the seats.... It will not get you the repute of a good actor to have excellencies discovered in you afterwards.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“You see how this House of Commons has begun to verify all the ill prophecies that were made of it—low, vulgar, meddling with everything, assuming universal competency, and flattering every base passion—and sneering at everything noble refined and truly national. The direct tyranny will come on by and by, after it shall have gratified the multitude with the spoil and ruin of the old institutions of the land.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
