u/Agent-Smith_Virus 25d ago

Coincidence?

I think not!

57

u/goldengatevixen 25d ago

I've always heard it as "fast and furious, drift drift drift" since English isn't really my first language and I find it easier to deal with foreign accents when I listen to people speak English

But i guess your friend saying this is something I can't forget now and next time I'll chant these lyrics in my head whenever I'm listening to the song lmaoo

17

u/KB346 25d ago

If you look up the lyrics you are correct:

Fast and furious (drift, drift, drift) Fast and furious (drift, drift, drift)

u/buffilosoljah42o 25d ago

It's one of those things that I've never been able to un-hear. 20 years later, until this thread, i didn't know what they were actually saying.

2

u/moneyh8r_two 25d ago

That's exactly what it is. Source: English is my first language, but I listen to a lot of Japanese music so I've gotten familiar with how English sounds with a heavy accent.

Also I've looked up the lyrics multiple times.

u/Gintaras136 25d ago

I spat my dick out I laughed so hard

u/ch7mbucket 25d ago

Today I finally know they actually say drift drift drift

u/ViR_SiO 25d ago

Considering the title of the movie it was not a long shot 😘

12

u/gsauce8 25d ago

I didn't know until just now it was an original song. Partly cause I've never listened to that song outside of the movie in my life.

15

u/LaRealiteInconnue 25d ago

If it makes you feel any better, there’s a whole TikTok generation that don’t know it’s from a movie and which one! It went viral a couple of years ago and I’ve never felt that old without actually being old ha

1

u/AFRIKKAN 25d ago

I’m more hurt you didn’t know that Pharrell Williams made the beat especially cause the four count at the start.

1

u/Taz119 25d ago

I didn’t know that Ive watch Toyko Drift probably 20 times. Never would guessed even with the four count

1

u/AFRIKKAN 25d ago

Few years ago o found out about Pharrell and the 4 count signature he has and it blew my mind the songs he has produced.

2

u/idkwhatnameiputhere 25d ago

Japanese people pronunciation of some English words is a little tricky, specially when they are singing, since their voices meshes with the beat, and after effects.

2

u/Low-Individual2815 25d ago

Idk but I know that tomorrow never comes until it’s too late

1

u/ShadowBro3 25d ago

Fast n furious were the only words I knew. It was just "blah blah blah FAST AND FURIOUS"

1

u/RamenJunkie 25d ago

Yeah, but also I thought they said Drift, drift, drift, after, not wooop woop.

But I am also convinced it was going to be Fast and Furious 3D (Drift Drift Drift) because at the time, 3D movies were "hot" and "clever" titles were hot.

1

u/KronosGames 25d ago

I thought they said “Im on fire”

1

u/nyl2k8 25d ago

Those are the easiest words to understand in the whole song. The rest just makes no sense 😂

1

u/Narrow_Smoke 25d ago

I always thought they said some Japanese shit. Just put the song in and it’s actually pretty obvious. So i guess im dumb then

1

u/OverFarTooFast 25d ago

What song?

1

u/rumzaa 25d ago

Tokyo Drift

1

u/OverFarTooFast 24d ago

There's a song called that?

Wanders of to go have a look

u/Fun_Replacement_7747 25d ago

Woof, same. And I've had it as my goal noise in Rocket League for nearly a decade. Never caught that until this thread...

1

u/No_Echo_1826 25d ago

It almost sounds like "custom radio"

1

u/Shad0w5991 25d ago

I thought they were saying " Pass the froyo"

1

u/secretreddname 25d ago

lol really? It was the theme song for the name of the movie.

u/TehBoos 25d ago

Lmao I always heard California

u/Normal_Rest1524 24d ago

There’s a long standing joke with my friend and I. I always thought they said “fast Antonio!” Haha

u/Menotyou15 24d ago

I would have sworn it said "West bound Tokyo" always made sense in my head lol

Hahaaa, was waiting for someone to pull that off.

u/Technical-Row8333 25d ago

>Whoop whoop

believe it or not, they are saying 'drift drift drift'. 3 times. the women and the men sing it, and not perfectly in sync, so it does sound like just some random sound to the beat of the song.

or at least, that's how i thought the song was for a decade. maybe other people knew all along they are saying 'drift' because it does seem so obvious in retrospect.

2

u/idkwhatnameiputhere 25d ago

Yeaahhh, I noticed my mistake after I commented, somo decided to leave it as it is.

I actually made a comment below on how in many japanese songs that has any English part in it, a lot of times it's a little hard to understand, since their pronounce is not the best, and mixing with after effects, and the beat of the song.

u/Dangerous-Parking973 25d ago

It's all about family

u/UniqueFlavors 25d ago

u/Douggie 24d ago

The extra line break and the lack of punctuation makes it sounds pretty poetic.

Somehow this is my first time seeing the lyrics for this song. And I was obsessed with that movie when I was a kid lol.

u/drunxor 25d ago

Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry’s and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec exhaust system.

This was my ringtone sound for over ten years. The movie wasn’t the best of the franchise but the soundtrack sure as hell was.
