Favourite music from the dubbed DragonBall Z series?
I understand that not all of the members here aren't exactly fond of the dubbed version of Dragonball Z, however I must admit that Bruce faulconer had created some amazing theme songs, IMO. My favourite themes from Bruce Faulconer, would have to be Vegeta's super saiyan theme, I absolutely love the piano associated with the theme.

I like just about anything Bruce Faulconer came up with.
Though, if I had to pick, I'd go with any of Cell's themes. I thought they were really cool and suited the character well. Especially how his Perfect form had a different theme than his Imperfect form. And each theme suited their respective form well.

The episode where the evil comes out of fat Buu, and when he goes up to the man with blond hair and kills him, the music that plays to that bit is ok.
And when Gohan SSJ2 is going to kill the Cell Jr's, that tune that comes in is quite cool.
Apart from that, the dub's music isn't really inspiring in any way.

Come on Meri, don't waste your spit on Faulconer. You need to save it for Menza.
I love a lot of Faulconer's music, although to pick some of my favourites.
SSJ3 Powerup
Ginyu Transformation
DBZ Finale
Droids vs. Bikers
Wrestling Rock with lead (Satan's theme)
Vegeta's Theme
Those are what come straght to mind.

You forget "Get That Dragon Ball!" from the old Kidmark dub, every time I listen to that, the darn thing gets stuck in my head. I'm actually glad FUNi retained their 1999 dub of Sleeping Princess for their DB Movie Box, the theme is there for the dub track. Because, it's all you gotta do to make your wish come true!! ^^Meri wrote:"Rock the Dragon", and almost all of Shuky Levi's BGM from the first season. I spit on Bruce Falcouner repeatedly, ptui ptui!
Old habits die hard, that they do.
Anyhow, Faulconer's SSJ3 theme, Ginyu Transformation, and Pikkon theme were good, I'd also say the theme when Piccolo reunites with Kami was good as good as well. I liked Gohan's "hidden powers" theme that was used from the Garlic Jr. saga through the Fusion arc, Faulconer chose good moments to use it, though it didn't belong in the Vegito/Buu battle.

Just adding onto the list:
SSJ3 Goku Theme.
SSJ Goku Theme.
Piccolo's theme, during the scene where he powers up when he first faces Cell.
Perfect Cell Theme ( by the way, was the techno version created by Bruce Faulconer? )
Kid Buu theme.
And then there's that music when the planet Namek is about to blow up, hard to describe it.
I must note that I am a fanatic of both the FUNimation dubbed music, as well as the original Japanese themes.
