Well, if you have a collection, you might as well complete it, and the rest of FMC I have (Due to it including songs from the two other dub albums)

I think my collection is complete enough without the dub's so-called soundtrack.

A soundtrack is a soundtrack rather you like it or not.

I rather prefer the original music, although, I do actually like a few of the dub songs... I tend to agree that Mabaroshi no Ginzuishou wasn't as fitting as My Only Love.. Truth be told, I like a lot of background music, even stuff from video games.. In fact, I love the songs on the Another Story album.. Can't wait to hear the music in this game.. ^_^

Not when it's two different flavors.

I kind of liked the cozy/pretty italian songs.. the german synth beats were hilarious too.
maybe they didn't fit in with the actual anime when you watched it?

To be honest, the only dub music that I preferred over the original was Alan's flute song. I think it makes more sense the way the dub did it.

That's not to say that I can't stand the dub's music. I actually think it was one of the better parts of the dub.

I think a lot of people claim to hate the dub music solely because it's a part of the dub, which in most cases pales in comparison to the original.

I think the original background music made for the dub fit pretty well, and overall was higher quality. The biggest flaw was they overplayed the theme melody. But overall, a lot of the songs fit perfectly. I liked Usagi's transformation theme a lot, as well as the Inner's transformation theme and a few others.

I like the original music far better, but there are some cute dub songs like My Only Love.

They butchered the opening. Unforgivable.

Honestly I didn't know there was a difference between the dub bgm and the original. When I watched the later seasons I didn't even know the music was different! UsagiLaugh But I can't choose. They're both very nostalgic sounds, so they both make me giddy for Sailor Moon when I hear them.

As for the vocal songs, I do love some of the Japanese songs (they are so many!), but I have to say that I love 99% of the English songs. I even love the OP. It's so fun and upbeat and I dunno how to explain it. That doesn't mean that I don't like "Moonlight Densetsu" though.

I definitely love the original openings better, but the dub's opening gets me all nostalgic, since it was the one I listened to when I was younger. If I hadn't heard the dub's version first, I wouldn't like it at all, but what's done is done, and I like to sing both very loudly! UsagiLaugh

Well I love the Dubbed Music, But I can't help to sing along to the original so, I guess I like both.

i prefer both (we have a right to do that XD) I loved the dub music of the henshins (Inner senshins) but I just love the japanese music of all that comical scenes but I think Carry On was a good song in the Beryl Serenity fight. Moonlight Densetsu just wasn't right...
