Alright, for the benefit of my overseas readers, if u wonder what the heck is the song on my blog, it’s actually a song sung by the famous Taiwanese singer, Jay Chou. It’s a song in the film, Initial D, starring Jay, Edison Chen n Shawn Yue. Here’s a brief synopsis of the film.

For five years, 18-year-old Takumi(Jay Chou) has been delivering tofu in his father's obsolescent Toyota AE86 every morning. Not only has he become a good racer, but he has also unwillingly perfected the art of drifting. He was never an aficionado of hill racing until he is asked to drive this AE86 in a David and Goliath race against Night Kid's(Shawn Yue) GTR. A glorious but unexpected victory awakens the competitive genes in his blood, while his overnight fame inevitably leads to hellraising races one after another, each one more perilous and exciting than the previous one

Below is the lyric of the song. I’ve somehow translated it into English. Hopefully it’s accurate enough. I love this song cos of its rhythmic beat n meaningful lyric, which is so appropriate for the movie…

作词：方文山,ST
作曲：周杰伦

找支笔　写下日记　记录勇气
Find a pen, writing in my diary, penning my courage
我可以对着墙壁　让拳头叛逆呼吸　
I can face the wall, with my fists breathing in revolt
天窗玻璃　打开我的身体
The glass of the skylight opens up to me　
这里引擎声就像是一种乐器
Right here, the sound of the engine simply resembles a music instrument to me
所以　风呼啸而过刺激　
With the wind whizzing by in excitement
所以　我在转弯漂移
I’m drifting furiously while turning
加足了马力　飙到底　看仔细
Look closely, Stepping on the pedal, revving at full speed
零到一百公里　谁敢与我为敌！
From 0-100kmh, who dares to challenge me!
我用第一人称　在飘移青春
Using the name of Number One, I’m drifting my youth
输跟赢的分寸　计算的很精准
The difference between victory n losing is being calculated to the very last inch
我踏上风火轮　在飘移青春
I’m drifting my youth behind my fiery wheels
故事中的我们　在演自己的一生
We’re portraying our own lives in the story
胜败的对比　是残酷的可以　
It’s cruel to compare between winning n losing
运气　从来就不在我这里
I never had luck by my side
实力没有办法仿真　
No way that potential can be copied
飘移　人车一体　飘移
Let’s drift, car n mind drifting as one
笑看后视镜的自己　啊
I smile looking at myself in the rear mirror, Uh
零火　继续　事关　荣誉
Ignite, Carry On, Regarding fame
我除了　第一　其它没有　兴趣
I’ve no interest in anything other than being Number One
得飘　得飘　得意的飘
I Drift, I Drift, I Drift with pride
我安静的喝饮料　轻松的笑
I’m drinking quietly, smiling away
得飘　得飘　得意的飘　
I Drift, I Drift, I Drift with pride
得飘　得飘　得意的飘
I Drift, I Drift, I Drift with pride
我绕过山腰　雨声悄悄　
I’m winding on the mountainous route in the sound of the rain
得飘　得飘　得意的飘　
I Drift, I Drift, I Drift with pride
得飘　得飘　得意的飘
I Drift, I Drift, I Drift with pride
再开进隧道　风声潇潇　
Driving into the tunnel again listening to the wind whistle by!
再开进隧道　风声潇潇
Driving into the tunnel again listening to the wind whistle by!
