Try Yahoo video search, type Cell saga or Gohan SSJ or something like that.
I wrote::arrow: Can someone tell me which song is used when Gohan goes bonkers and transforms into SSJ2? It’s used in 3 or 4 episodes. “Episode 170 – The Unleashing (Awakening)” starts off with this theme. Can someone please give me the name of this song by Faulconer?
Yeah, this and also the song when Dende's new Shenron appears after the Cell games, the same song is also used when Yamcha and Bulma wish back the people Vegeta killed in the Majin sagas. Does anyone know the names of these two songs?

I don't know but I like the Bruce Faulconer BGM. The Japanese BGM is alright but I think the reason I like the Faulconer one better is becuase I grew up on it and I don't nitpick about things like that.

I only heard a small part of Bruce Faulconer BGM's in the Frieza, Garlic, and Trunks sagas when they aired in the U.K... so give me so time and I'll try and remember some.

Enjoy.
At least it's better than the shit that was JPN Goku's SSJ transformation.

Also, WTF at the bird.

Actually, I really like Faulconer's music for the dub. It may not be as memorable or as mood captruing as the original Japanese version, but there are a lot of appropriate character themes and motifs. However, I strongly dislike Mark Menza's music. I never watched the DBGT dub since it always had the same bad techno beat in every scene. Also in some of the movies Menza did the score for, he just put in some really bad metal music.

I never really associated Dragon Ball with metal at all, it doesn't seem right for some reason.
