There is an English version of "We Gotta Power" done by Kageyama himself if that suits you.
Already heard it, but I'm thinking of something more along the lines of the singers speaking English as their first language.

I agree, Kageyama's is pretty hard to understand when he sings in English.

There's a great English version of Cha la Head Cha la that you can find on Youtube. The only thing I don't like is the instrumental part of the song.

He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can.

Not energetic enough.

This is what I was referring to. The lyrics are good and the singer is decent but my biggest beef with it is the instrumental part. As Themightyozaru said, it's not energetic enough, but it's nice to see that it can be adapted reasonably well.

Consistency be damned, I'm glad we're potentially getting new music for Kai.

Well, there's no comfirmation of the entire series being rescored yet, but I've always amazed myself with some of the outlandish predictions I've made that ended up actually coming true. I thought Yamamoto would have been a great fit for scoring the show years ago, for example.

Well, with the confirmation of a new composer, it's pretty much established the entire Buu Saga will be composed with new music.

Here it is properly synched to the opening for DBZ.

I'm glad at any chance we get to have new Dragon Ball music composed/released. After years and years of listening to multiple dubs with multiple musical scores, and even playing the video games with all sorts of different scores composed for them, I can say consistency doesn't bother me either at this point. I look forward to hearing it, and c'mon, it's not like it'll be any worse than some of the music we got handed to us for the English-language releases.

Bring the Kai Buu arc on...
Nothing matters (in a cosmic sense.) Have a good time.

When did we confirm a brand new composer was coming on board? All I caught was kei17 uploading that edited episode of Z where Videl fights Spopovitch, and he mentions the music is "a hint."

I assumed the "hint" was the fact that footage of "Battle of Gods" was playing in the background of Kei17's video, implying that Norihito Sumitomo was scoring the Boo arc.

I dunno.

That certainly sounds like an apt description of 'hint'.

Sounds like it could be to me now that you mention it. I was thinking strictly within the video itself. :mrgreen:

Yeah me too, I searched for a hint regarding the choice of footage of Videl's fight, something in the editing process or whatever... and I totally blocked out the background vid.
But still, let's wait for an official confirmation on Toei's part now (I guess they won't talk about Kai when the hype's still on Battle of Gods... and they might not talk about it at all, since it won't be shown in Japan, so why would they release a "just so that you know what others will have but not you" statement?)

He's not Toei's employee. He worked for Office Two-One, but was fired and now is a freelance music arranger. He is refraining voluntarily from composition, and occasionally arranges songs released by Lantis.
That's great to hear, do you know if he orchestrated his music? I mean, he arranged the orchestra for his music in Kai and the Orchestrated snes games music?
