Background

"Human After All" is the only single from the album released without an accompanying music video. Daft Punk had originally set to make a video, but it eventually became the feature film Daft Punk's Electroma co-written and directed by the duo.[2]

Daft Punk produced the Teriyaki Boyz song "Heartbreaker", which features elements of "Human After All".[3] MTV Australia used the coda of "Human After All" in its "coming up" section of their channel format. A remixed version of the song made an appearance in the video game DJ Hero 2.[4]

On the album Alive 2007, "Human After All" appears with the track "Superheroes" from the album Discovery (2001) and "Rock'n Roll" from Homework (1997). The song also appeared on the encore on the bonus disc of Alive 2007, mixed along with Together's eponymous song, a reprise of "One More Time" from Discovery and Stardust's song "Music Sounds Better with You".[5]
