Because the person doing the translation decided to chose words that rhymed. That remix was a sadder interpretation yet.

Here's another translation of the last part for comparison. Since I don't read latin I can't say it's more accurate, but since it doesn't rhyme one might suspect so. Found that one last night first so went with it, can't find the page I'm looking for though that has multiple translations on it.

Fate is against me
in health
and virtue,
driven on
and weighted down,
always enslaved.
So at this hour
without delay
pluck the vibrating strings;
since Fate
strikes down the string man,
everyone weep with me!

Plenty of weeping going on at that event. Still fits :)

What a horrible cut up of the great DnB mix of that opera. I've been looking for the song too for over 5 years.

Oh yeah, the movie was ok, nothing ok until I saw the SUV flip. Other than that, these people suck at teh drifting if they're trying to do that.

Eggo - it's the first part of O Fortuna from Orff's Carmina Burana. Maybe that'll help you find it.

Those arab kids have way too much money. Smashing up Camrys and Sonatas and so forth. Couldn't they have at least used Corollas and Excels?

I had a friend in college who lived in Riyadh because his dad worked for Saudi-Aramco company. He told me the Arab kids were so damn rich there, he knew a guy that got a new ferrari when he turned 16.

Too bad they have all that money but still use bedsheets for clothes. Basically, males in these Arab countries think they are the sh*t. I've been to Dubai before, do you guys know they still have slaves, in 2005, they still "buy" people!? Many households have maids from Asian countries that they sexually abuse and confiscate their passports so they cannot leave. The local authorities are all in on it and don't do anything about it. Same thing for horse racing, they take small boys from other countries to use for Jockeys' and force them to work.

Fcking primitive savages. I just wished more of them weren't side swiped in the process. Save us a couple billion dollars in military spending 15 years from now.

Oh and as for the music, that was HORRIBLE. Quite possibly one of the worst remixes ever. I mean there's some sort of wild cat making noises, what the hell is that all about?

I agree with you!!!
