“Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” is a song by French duo Daft Punk. The single was first released on 13 October 2001. A live version of “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” was released as a single from the album Alive 2007 on 15 October 2007. This version won a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording in 2009.

“Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” features a robotic vocal performance by Daft Punk. As documented in the Discovery liner notes, “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” contains a sample of “Cola Bottle Baby” by Edwin Birdsong.

A live version of “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” was recorded at Bercy in Paris from 14 June 2007. It was released as a digital download single on 15 October 2007, for the live album Alive 2007. The track contains a part of the “Television Rules the Nation / Crescendolls” segment of the Bercy performance that features elements of the songs “Around the World”, “Steam Machine”, “Television Rules the Nation”. This version of the song won the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording at the 51st Grammy Awards.

Kanye West’s song “Stronger” from the album Graduation prominently features a sample of “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger”. Two actors who wore the robotic Daft Punk costumes in the film Daft Punk’s Electroma appear in the music video for “Stronger”. It was later performed live at the 2008 Grammy Awards with Daft Punk in their trademark pyramid while West was on stage rapping.

    ManDirky: As history proves it's not about who makes the sample, but rather who makes the sample famous. Then again Daft Punk owe everything to their samples, and I'm sure they would be the first to tell you. If you don't enjoy sampled music, Daft Punk just isn't for you I'm afraid.

    One of the reasons Daft Punk has so many hits on my playlist - this song (and the rest of Discovery, along with the Legacy soundtrack) on my workout playlist. Just TRY listening to it and not crank up that treadmill just a little faster...

    Damn, I really thought Daft Punk were genius for this... then I found out that they just sampled Edwin Birdsong's Cola Bottle Baby. Really disappointed!!
