Mystical Adventure in English

I had no idea this song had an English version, but upon hearing it I've gotta say.... IT JUST BECAME ONE OF MY FAVORITES!!! Not only is it in English, but I can actually understand what they're saying!

Ok so now that I've gotten that out of the way, does anyone have more information on this song? Was it done by the same group who did the original version and when was this created?

Oh yes, and before anyone goes and says "there's a site too" just hold your tongue this time because I did in fact check the music guide first

The FUNi dub, or the Phillipino dub? Or is there one by the original artist, Mr. Kageyama?

Maybe it was a little hard to see my link, so I'll post it again.

Too bad it didn't have the original instrumental like most of the world did.

I like this version better actually, but that's way beside the point, I just want more information on this if anyone has it.

I don't know why, but to me it sounds like sting is singing the song. It sounds like him or is it only me going crazy? Probably me going crazy lol.

Juust a little. I hear it though. This version was produced by FUNimation, and that's all I know.

Hironobu Kageyama didn't do Makafushigi Adventure. :p

I believe it's the FUNimation dub. I like it a lot. The bass line is funky, and I like funky bass.

There's an English version of Romantic Night as well.

I don't know if there's much more to know about it. As opposed to the original composition of "Get That DragonBall!" from 1995 (and the entirely replaced musical score), FUNimation's re-attempt at the original DB TV series used the original Japanese BGM, and English "verisons" (note: these are not "translations") of both the opening and ending themes.

There are no DB songs with that title; perhaps you're referring to "Romantikku Ageru yo" ("I'll Give You Romance!")? But yes, as noted above, FUNimation also used an English "version" of the DB TV series closing theme for their continued dub of the series.

I'll never understand why the couldn't just do this with Cha La Head Cha La and Dan Dan. Especially with the box sets. They went back and put the original music in! It takes 2 seconds to do something right. 2 freaking seconds...

Maybe they are not putting the original japanese themes and inserts songs so in the future they can release new season sets by saying in the back, "digitally remastered with the original japanese opening and ending themes and insert songs", somethin along those lines.

Yeah, thats the one. My bad.

I think the Instrumental version of Ch La Head Cha La is sweet. The lyrics would be weird translated. I'm not sure there's any way you can make "nut-scented alien" not sound strange in English.

I remember uploading MP3's of Mystical Adventure! and I'll Give You Romance a few months ago.

I don't have the old MP3's anymore, I have them in AAC though. Can't play AAC files you say? Try VLC or Winamp.

Mystical Adventure!
AAC @ 160kbps - 48000Hz 2.10MB

I'll Give You Romance
AAC @ 160kbps - 48000Hz 2.04MB

I don't think uploading them is a big deal, since I've done it before and these aren't available to purchase on CD or download.

It actually does have an original instrumental!

When the funimation Dragonball site was completely Flash based the music playing the background was the instrumental for that song, though it's in rather poor quality, but it's listenable. I could send it to you if you PM me :p

Wait the original instrumental of the english version? You have that?

The English versions of the Dragon Ball songs aren't translated though, they changed the lyrics. They could easily rewrite the lyrics to Head Cha La and WE GOTTA POWER as well.

My buddy Super17 posted the Karaoke version of the English Makafushigi Adventure I ripped from funimation's site in 2002 on his youtube account, so here you go

The Funi version actually sounds better than the Japanese version. The instrumentals are similar, but Funi's is more catchy.
