"ZoOm, ZoOm, zOoM, yeah, Zoom Zoom Zoom Zoom " I loved the catchy yet painfully repetitive hook when I first heard it. Mazda's "zoom zoom" ads are still playing in Japan although they seem to be pulled from the US market. Even more even when I found out it's actually a song from the movie "only the strong" which I ...which in Portuguese means the Brazilian-afro martial "Capoeira kicks butt" . No, hee, hee, actually the the song begins, "Zoom zoom zoom capoeira mata um!" which in Portuguese means "Capoeira kills one" .. "Zoom zoom zoom capoeira kills one kills two, kills three if all of you attack me at once I will kill you all" Although the Zoom Zoom Zoom song by Serapis Bey that's still being used in current commercials in Europe and Japan was recorded long before it became the official song for Mazda in the movie Only The Strong released in 1993. The Japanese zoom-zoom tag line has the phrase "motto noritaku naru" --- (I) wanna go more. The "zoom zoom" song Mazda is actually a capoeira song. For those of you who have no idea what capoeira is, it's a Brazillian martial art that practitioners "play" or "mock fight" while performing a bunch of gymnastic/breakdancing-looking fighting moves to the tune of singing and intrumental sound in the background. Songs and instruments are traditional Brazilian/African heritage. The song was then modifed a stronger beat in a capoeira movie called "Only The Strong" filmed in the mid-90s starring Mark Dacascos.
