Daft Punk: Lose Yourself to Dance

The new video for the Daft Punk track Lose Yourself to Dance emerged at the weekend, during the MTV
Video Music Awards.

While the performance by Miley Cyrus was the one that got most of the subsequent headlines, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry, along with Justin Timberlake and *NSYNC were also making a strong bid to steal the stage.

However, our eyes were on a  brief clip by France's favourite robots, with a teaser for the video for the song Lose Yourself to Dance.

While it doesn't have the element of surprise that Get Lucky head- the song's familiar to the huge number of people who have either got or heard the album by now - there;s no denying that it's still a great song.

Get Lucky, of course, went on to be the biggest hit they've had so far, and has been by far the biggest single of the year and like its predecessor, it also features Pharrell Williams on vocals.

However, will there be a full-length video for the song? Get Lucky didn't have much more than a minute's worth of pictures released, which were knitted together with footage from other clips that the band released earlier to make a broadcast video. I suppose it didn't exactly slow down the sales of the song.

Hopefully we'll get a full video before too long, if only to stop the music channels repeating the visuals from the One More Time video.
