“My Name is Giovanni Giorgio” is a YouTube meme that usually consists of videos which combine the audio introduction to Daft Punk’s “Giorgio By Moroder” to different video clips. Some of these memes pair the song with unrelated music videos or clips of people dancing. More esoteric versions pair the audio with nonsensical situations or crossovers with other memes.

The meme is associated with the iconic phrase “My name is Giovanni Giorgio, but everyone calls me Giorgio”. Most iterations of the meme start with the utterance of this phrase, which precedes the drop of the beat. The beat accompanies a change in the video.

Giovanni Giorgio Moroder is a musician from Italy. His work with synthesizers makes him one of the early adopters of the technology. He is thus considered one of the founding figures of electronic music. You can learn more about him from Wikipedia or Inckredible. He is a very influential person in music, but he is not very well known by the general public. This has caused some to speculate he is part of the secret illuminati of the music business, alongside British 80’s pop duo The Quick. See also: Quickposting. Daft Punk pays homage to Giorgio in their 2013 song “Giorgio by Moroder”, which uses a spoken word sample from Moroder as the introduction.
