My favorites are a mix between Gohan Angers and Episodic Trunks.
Still goes to Episodic Trunks for me. It has a very similar tone to "Mind Power Ki" which was a song they used with him in the original version and I thought it was one time the two really lined up. I forget if it was ever used in the same place, but I doubt it.
Too bad there's no instrumental for "Mind Power... Ki." I may have actually liked it, which is saying a lot considering I generally don't enjoy anything from the original score.

And Gohan Powers Up is just amazing.
I remember the unreleased one being from the end of the Frieza Saga originally. 107 sticks in my head.

"Gohan Powers Up" is clearly Julius' work ^^


Ooohhhh Agent Moon is back! Sweet :) Readded him to my feature list on my channel. I always have to say that I'm particularly biased toward his version of the Pikkon theme http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DcoFrMrjZA hehe. :roll:

Geez, I've got a fair few of them actually. Let's see...*references track listings*

My favorites would probably have to be Android 20 Destroys City, Android Battle, Buu is Fighting, Cell Powers Up, Cell Returns, Cell Transforms, DBZ Finale, Ginyu Transformation, Gohan Fights Frieza, Goku Battles 19, Groovy Discotech, Heroic Trunks, Imperfect Cell's Theme, Mr. Satan's Theme (Wrestling Rock With Lead), Mushroom March, Mysterious Youth, Perfect Cell's Theme, Piccolo V.S. 17, Pikkon's Theme, Super Saiyan 3 Powerup, Super Saiyan Transformation, The Saga Continues, Tournament March, Trunks Appears, Uub in the Tournament, Vegeta - Super Saiyan, and Vegeta's Theme

Ohh, and it doesn't really count I guess, but I'm also fond of the Android 18 (sung version). And I like the DBZ Opening too, though not the version played earlier on with grunts and stuff over it.

Basically my favorite stuff is the character themes really. Vegeta, Trunks, Mr. Satan, Cell, and Buu all had some great theme music, Gohan and Goku got a few as well. Ginyu Transformation and SS Transformation/SS3 Powerup are both awesome as well. I like Uub in the Tournament and DBZ Finale for sentimental reasons, those were more touching pieces than anything else in the soundtrack I think.

If I had to pick one absolute favorite though? Probably Vegeta - Super Saiyan.

SSJ Themes in general. Its hard to choose between Vegeta's SSJ theme, SSJ3 theme, SSJ theme, and SSJ2 Gohan's theme(With violin).
Vegeta: "Funny... I seem to recall Kakarot being fed the same information right before he transformed; the distinct look on your faces when he went Super Saiyan didn't exactly inspire confidence. One does not predict or calculate power like ours."

I've taken a liking to some of the more relaxed type of tracks.

But ultimately I have to ask myself "What is the true meaning of being perfect?" and the answer I came up with was nothing. Not one thing. The truth of the matter is I despise perfection! If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

I don't know really know who made except that it's from one of the English dubs. I must say I really love these SSJ Vegeta, Vegetto's theme and my most favorite Kid Boo's theme.

I just took the names from the video titles, I don't know if it can be said that they are the characters' themes.
I know, on the other hand, that Kid Boo's theme is indeed played when they fight him on Kaioshin's planet and it fits it amazingly due to its relentless nature which goes along Kid Boo's character.

Mike did Vegeta's SSJ theme. I wasn't there for the other two but I'm gonna say Vegetto sounds like Mike and Kid Boo is probably Julius, though there's a chance it could be Bruce.

Same here but exactly this version here. I remember this played when Perfect Cell was just born and he kicked Kuririn almost to death.

My favorite is the Super Saiyan 3 theme.
When I was a wee lad searching on the internet to find DBZ music, one of the first tracks i found was this theme, and I was just blown away.
After a while I got bored listening to it, but recently i rediscovered it, and now its more nostalgic than "OMFG THIS SONG IS AWESOME!!!"

You know when Goku dies, and they're all at Kami's Lookout reminiscing about him? That song was so sad, and it was so true to the moment. I loved it. Unfortunately, that version has yet to see an official release.

To be perfectly honest, I couldn't care less about the fans a re-issue might alienate because if all they're concerned about is being able to scalp the people who were either unaware of the Dragon Boxes or couldn't afford them at the time, they're just leeches and deserve to have their greed backfire on them.

Some of my favorites have already been stated here like "Gohan Angers" and "Pikkon's theme".

But anyway, some ones that are a little less popular but still crack my top 5 from Bruce Faulconer.

"Vegeta Knows his son" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h86AXYcdMe4

"Mysterious person" {Kaioshin theme] - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3xWqRwNaDQ

"Heroic Goku theme" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6adJ93cCEw

"Sage Music" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_-xk1it7I0

If I had to pick one it would probably the Super Saiyan 3 transformation. But to be honest, I don't like the Faulconer score at all. To me, it just doesn't really feel like Dragon Ball; it doesn't have that feel to it that the Kikuchi score has...
