This is taking the original English version done by Gino Padilla, stripping the instrumental, and laying it over the original background track. It's...

It's beautiful. The lyrics are wrong, but still...

WOW.

FUNimation should pay this guy to slap it on the remastered DBZ sets.

Sounds pretty nice. I wonder how it would turn out if he used the Engrish lyrics.

Whoops, I just realized I posted this in the wrong section. Probably should be in Fan-Creations...

What do you guys think?

If I'm not mistaken, that video was made by someone on this very forum.

Kei17 I believe.

Better than "Rock the Dragon."

I'm going to have to disagree with most of you. I do not find the voice compelling at all. Perhaps it is how it is recorded or maybe the way he sings the lyrics seems sloppy to me, but I believe FUNimation's recent GT dub songs stomp over this vocal performance.

Still, it is cool to listen to

I can honestly say, the Head-Cha-La original lyrics in English probably wouldn't sit well with your average DeeBeeZee fan.

Kei17 is the author of this, actually. I still love it.

I wish there was an MP3 of this....

I actually did this a while ago, but for some reason I can't upload YouTube videos. Oh well, screw it.

Actually, I got to say THIS is the best version:

I think the lyrics are pretty accurate too. It sounds like lyrics for a Japanese Dragon Ball intro, and the first part of both this English version and the subtitles on the 2008 special have lyrics about finding a dinosaur trapped in ice and training it to ride a ball (what that has to do with any part of the story is beyond me). Plus it sounds a LOT like the guy who does the Japanese version.

It is the guy who does the Japanese version, just speaking English...very poorly.

So an MP3 of this really doesn't exist? Why take the time to make it and not an MP3 to go along with it? It's like saying "Touch but don't take." Or something like that.

There are countless websites that let you rip audio from YouTube videos to MP3s. Google is your friend.

Excuse me princess....

If someone could use one of these aforementioned programs to make an MP3 of this it would be greatly appreciated, I'd like to have this in my music library.

You can do it yourself it's not hard. Most of the time it's just a matter of copying and pasting the URL of the YouTube page.
