Anime-Hits @ RTL II (Cha-La / WGP in German!)

Post by plusloud » Mon Nov 28, 2005 8:12 am

I'm sorry if this is old news, but. After clicking on the DANDAN iTunes link (note: the Forever Love mix in this album is worth a dollar, but no more), I happened to search for "anime" in the US Music Store. Clicking "See All" results in random music and podcasts. What caught my attention was a little album called Anime-Hits @ RTL II. It's actually a collection of the theme songs from the German dubs of various anime. Recognizable covers include:

Cha-La Head-Cha-La
We Gotta Power
*Insert the names of the US Detective Conan / Case Closed songs
Jajauma ni Sasenaide (Ranma 1/2)
Little Date (Ranma 1/2)
Piece of Love (Kamikaze Kaitô Jeanne)
Et cetera.

Good stuff.
Umm... just call me Remy, already. :p

OLD NEWS! :P :D

Yeah, for the the german dub they copied Cha-La, WGP and some insert songs (but not Unmei no Hi >_>).
For the german DBZ OST CDs they make long versions of the openings and some songs which never were used in the dub (We were Angels).

The German WGP is actually quite good. I prefer the guitar over the horns in the original version.
Jord doesn't have a avatar because the combination of Jord and a equally cool avatar would cause the universe to implode.
