It really is a great song, while the lyrics are repetitive, listen to everything else

"Around the world" aren't the lyrics, they're just another instrument. You wouldn't say that the drum beat is repetitive, for example.
And here I thought it was referring to "Robot Rock". Though I suppose that's only two words.
Yes I would. Daft Punk's songs are boring AF, except for their work on TRON Legacy. And their movie scoring was only good because of the movie's editors. The soundtrack on Spotify is boring too.
They're boring by today's standards. Back then, they were slightly above average.

my name is Giovanni Giorgio, but everybody calls me... Giorgio.
Holy shit is that a JoJo reference???
But I do actually like "Giorgio by Moroder". It seems silly but it's served me an inspiring monologue to try new things and find something I to be passionate about. And so I bought a few pairs of headphones and schiit amp/dac to see if music making was what I could be good at. It is not. But I found I loved listening to music on nice headphones, and got a pair of Grados to go with the dac/amp
Sorry I know you don't care just wanted to praise the song lol
Don't worry mate, I am a music gear nerd as well ;) I am really into guitar stuff, effects pedals and amps. My latest acquisition is Astral Destiny by EarthQuaker Devices

Virtually everything Daft Punk did was inspired by disco music.
What was the first mainstream Disco song?
Donna Summer's Love to Love You Baby, in which she repeats, "I love to love you baby" about a million times.
This doesn't seem right. Barry White wrote Love's Theme around 1965, and released it in 1973. It also reached number 1 on Billboard, so I guess that counts as (US) mainstream.

I mean, if you are listening to Daft Punk for lyricism, you're doing it wrong.
I've told the story before, but I worked a MarketPro Computer Show & Sale a million years ago and was stationed next to a booth selling mostly speakers and stereo equipment where the booth owner had brought his 10-ish year old son with him. This son preceded to play "Around the World," full-blast, through an enormous stack of display speakers, instantly filling the entire convention hall. Then he put the song on repeat. All day. No exaggeration, he did not play a single other song for the entirety of the 10 hour shift, just "Around the world, around the world... around the world, around the world.... around the world, around the world" endlessly.
That kid is a legend of trolling.

Daft Punk weren't really very good songwriters, but they made up for it by being fantastic producers.
And yet it's a million times better than songs like "Gucci Gang"

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
They've also got a song where the word "It" accounts for practically 50% of the lyrics.

"I've my mind set on you" or Weird Al's take "This song in just six words long"
You don't have to put on the red light
“We should make a song that hits people at the emotional level, but I don’t know what words to use”
“Emotion you say?”
