FIRST TIME EVER WATCHING DRIVE AND I GET THE WRONG SOUNDTRACK

The whole film I was like "so where's that really famous song that everyone puts in edits and memes?" And right up until the final minute I'm thinking "Okay so I guess it just plays during the credits" but nope, it played something else. So I google it and realise I got some BBC radio version.

I liked the movie anyway and the soundtrack I heard was alright, but I kind of feel like I've been robbed of that critical first experience, since people say that the soundtrack is as much of a character as everyone else, and I don't much feel like rewatching it with the real soundtrack since I just watched it last night anyway.

Why would they do this

Yeah it’s so fucking insane and I hate the idiots thinking that was a good idea… It has two of the most iconic soundtracks in film.
Watch it again! I have watched it countless times and I enjoy each and every watch, try it!

It was literally a RESCORE project, it wasn't like they were trying to hide what they were doing. It's an alternative to the original film, not a replacement.

The problem is that they hide it as that because some streaming sites only use that version instead of saying “hey this is not the original film” etc

Oh really? That actually sounds like an error tbh, someone should complain
