Face to Face
Daft Punk Todd Edwards Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's not your fault I was being too demanding
I must admit, it's my pride that made me distant
All because I hoped that you'd be someone different
There's not much I know about you
Fear will always make you blind
But the answer is in clear view
I turned away 'cause I thought you were the problem
Tried to forget, until I hit the bottom
But when I faced you in my blank confusion
I realized you weren't wrong, was a mere illusion
It really didn't make sense
Just to leave this unresolved
It's not hard to go the distance
When you finally get involved face to face
It really didn't make sense
Just to leave this unresolved
It's not hard to go the distance
When you finally get involved face to face
The lyrics to Daft Punk's "Face to Face" convey a sense of realization and self-reflection. The singer acknowledges that they were too proud and demanding in their previous interactions with the person they are addressing. They recognize that they had an image in their mind of who this person should be, and that their own expectations blinded them to the reality of who the other person actually was. However, upon facing the person they had turned away from, the singer realizes that their perception was merely an illusion. The answer had been in clear view all along, and it was only by coming face to face with the truth that they were able to see it.
The song can be interpreted more generally as a message about the importance of communication and honesty in relationships. It is easy to avoid confrontations, to let conflicts go unresolved, to turn away from others when things get difficult. But in order to truly understand and connect with others, it is necessary to confront those difficulties and engage directly with the people we care about.

Every time you hear a Todd Edwards remix that has a vocal, you always know that the arrangement will be more minimal than the original track.

if you were in a club in the UK, you'd be listening to it at this pace. It's not quite this fast at the original tempo.
Valn3d
its NUKG at the tempo of the original radiomix rip 🤣
Some Citrus
That clap every 16th beat of the chorus with the chime/glass breaking sound is the cherry on top of all this heat

Why isn't this the first result when you look up "daft punk face to face remix"? This is the absolute best version.

Maybe I'm just a fast paced person but I think the speed on this is great. I listen to the original when I'm in a more chill mood, I listen to this remix when I am more hyped up.
