German Dub Aprreciation Thread

Post by SSJ2bardock » Sun Jan 18, 2009 2:05 pm

Just heard this for the first time today and I thought it was excellent! It makes me wonder how we couldn't have gotten something like this in English -_-

So, what are some other good dubs of this song and others?

Be happy not to understand German. The lyrics are awful.

Hm, I would like to know what said lyrics are now. :lol:
How's the German dub by the way? I heard people thought the voices were unfitting.

This is the best German dub scene I've seen so far. The Godfather music theme is extra awesomeness.

I changed the name of the thread, I think it's appropriate.

I'm EXTREMELY curious as well. It SOUNDED cool enough as seemingly random sounds without any attached meaning....

Worse than, "If there was a dinosaur in the thawed out ice I'd want to train it to ride atop a ball?"

Not that I don't love Chala-head-chala, but Dragon Ball always has some pretty weird lyrics in their songs. How does it compare?

Edit: I thought the German We Gotta Power sounded pretty awesome, anyway.

That was my same line of thought, all the syllables lined up and it sounded friggin cool.

I actually thought Cha La's lyrics were pretty good. It was all about magical, fantastical adventure. I always had trouble with truly nonsensical songs, like Zenkai Power and We Gotta Power.
