I still believe to this day, that this is the best song about numbers:

Drift Stage continues to be the coolest racer we've seen in ages. TAY interviewed the retro-flavored racer's creators recently, but this new video goes all-in on style and deliciously cheesy guitar riffs. Watch.

What do you mean unintelligible grunts? His words were wise beyond his years.
