"Get Low" is a 2014 single by American electronic music producer Dillon Francis and French DJ and producer DJ Snake. Accompanied by a music video, the song became very popular in European night venues and in zumba exercise classes. The entire song consists of the following lyrics, "Get low when the whistle go", while interspersed with some exclamations like "Barbes, yalla habibi" (an Arabic phrase translating to “Let’s go, my love”), tongue rolling and feminine yelling. The song is an available track on the rhythm game Just Dance 2015. This song is featured in the film Furious 7 and its affiliated video game, Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious, which is a standalone expansion of the open-world racing video game Forza Horizon 2. The official remix features additional vocals by Rae Sremmurd.
