Wouldn't the Greek one be "Chelononintzakia"? After all, "Chelonia" is the Greek word for "Turtle". And according to the Greek letters, it starts with a Chi, which is the Greek letter for CH or C.

From the Spanish one, I think it may have been dubbed in Spain. If it says "juntos siempre permaneced", then it definitely was- in Latin America it would be "juntos siempre permanezcan".

I'd love to hear the Catalan one. It's the native language of my father's family.

It's awesome how I could understand almost everything in the Italian one, even though I have not taken formal lessons in the language.

I like the Hebrew one's rhythm. Even though they kept the melody and rhythm, I can distinguish the Hebrew pattern.

Thank you for posting them up!

[Anarky]

Also, in Germany, the TMNT aren't called Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles anymore, that was for the old toon. They're now called, very much in tone with the US-toon: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

[ToTheNines]

Good finds!

The Russian version is so bad, I'm embarassed.

[Drtooth]

I have to tell a story one of these days, but I just an't listen to certain songs in certain other languages. I don't know why. Spanish, French, Japanese, stuff like that I can handle. Somethings just give me an icky tummy feeling due to certain sounds. Hebrew especially has harsh "KCH" and "SHHH" type sounds.

But anyway, this does a Massachusettes boy proud. Considering I saw a clip of the Arthur theme song in different languages, I feel a lot of pride. We have Dr. Seuss, The Tick, TMNT, and Arthur. And it's all over the world.

Sounds awfully reasonable, but run it through a google search. You'll see. :)

The only Catalan theme I've found was Classic 'Toon. Sorry. :ohwell:

Cool. I knew the UK got over their N-word taboo, but I wasn't sure about Germany.

[Masked Ninja]

Aiy, the Russian one is just a guy talking to the background music. Which I'm sure makes the "I love bein' a - I love bein' a - I love bein' a turtle" part awkward. :P

Love the Italian one - especially since when they were profiling everyone they thought to stick in Splinter. :) And it's fun to hear a different (but still Turtles-related) song up front.

[Scandia]

I ran the Google search. That is a STRANGE romanization. They spelled and pronounced it right on the song.

And I'd still like to hear the Catalan version of the OT song. In Spanish they never made one for it- they just used the English OP and it would end with a spoken line saying "Las ninjatortugas adolescentes mutantes".

[Drtooth]

BTW, what is the romanized version of the Hebrew version? Do they use different words, or do they just say it with an accent?

[gobo]

I just added a cammed Latin theme, the Japanese OP2 & ED2, an extra source for Russia & Spain, and replaced the Russian fake.

BTW, what is the romanized version of the Hebrew version? Do they use different words, or do they just say it with an accent?
I wish I knew. My Babylon (http://www.babylon.com/) trial expired before I got that far. :ohwell: I wish I could find lyrics for all of these. That would be amazing for if I ever do make a site out of all this.

[Time Mistress]

I'm curious about those second two Japanese ones, I've seen the Winds of Passion and Summer Fighter ones before but what are those two new ones called and what are they used for in Japan, season 2 maybe? Does anybody know?

Edit: Found part of the answer in another thread. Perminant Vacation is the second opening. But what's the name of the second closing song?

[Sewer Bull]

Poland (Polish)
Title: Wojowniczy Zolwie Ninja


It's "Wojownicze" (plural for "combative" or "truculent"), not "Wojowniczy" (which is a singular form). Same goes for the old toon.

Fun fact: actor who voices Don in the new toon, sings this song. So it sounds like Don himself sang. I think there's also "Leo" in the background... and of course "ninjitsu, akcja!" is said by Mikey.

[Scandia]

In Spanish, it is "Las Tortugas Ninja". I know that the Turtles are male. But in Spanish, turtles use the feminine article whether it is a male or a female. Same for rats.

[Masked Ninja]

...and replaced the Russian fake.Thank goodness that was fake. :trazz: The real one is worthy of being an intro.

It's strange how fun it is to watch the same intro over and over, but in different languages. Maybe I'm a nerd, haha.

[gobo]

I just found out that's the reason I compute with the lights off. :P

[Garou]

Someone wouldn't be so lucky as to have the Italian intro as an MP3, would they? It rocks!

[gobo]

I just updated and rearranged the first post of the thread.

It is now color-coded. Green entries are the ones that are already represented in video or audio format. Yellow is the bunch that I'm unsure if they're even worth tracking down (because either 2K3 doesn't exist in the territory or their theme went unaltered). And, the red is the bunch that I've already checked, and their themes aren't worth worrying about.

Also, you now have 20 MP3 downloads to choose from. ^_^ I tweaked them all to make them more uniform and maybe a tad more listenable, so the Polish theme only makes your ears bleed a little now. :ohwell: When I get around to buying a Polish DVD, I'll fix the problem. The MP3s of the Japanese themes are only the TV versions. Since these edits aren't available for purchase, that should be enough to avoid any infringement issues. Best case scenario would be that you listen to them so much that you get curious enough to buy the CD. ^_^ Support your artists, folks.

[Garou]

Great. Thanks gobo. Although I have to tell you, there seems to be an error on both the Latin-American MP3 and the Finnish one - i get a webpage saying that the url could not be found...

But apart from that, just snatched all the others :D

[gobo]

Thanks for letting me know. :) I just fixed them both. They were URL mix-ups. Since the Finnish theme is hosted by someone else, I had to go find it all over again. :ohwell: I'll host it myself if I ever get my hands on a DVD or find a YouTube video for it.

[Coola Yagami]

Do you have the full songs? I'd rather have the full version of Everybody than just the 'TV Version'.

Figures he wasn't interested in paying for it. I kinda wish I didn't have to either. :P Dang collector's compulsions...

[The Chuck]

So, anyone got the Japanese theme from the classic toon? I searched, but couldn't find any threads with it.

This isn't the place to be asking about the classic, but you can find that one here (http://www.thetechnodrome.com/sounds/themes.shtml).

The list was updated today with 3 full music videos of theme songs from the Japanese dub.

English: Mutant Ninja Turtles
OP MP3 provided by TMNT-TV-lähetykset Suomessa
Video N/A

Huh? Mutantti Sosku kilpikonnat? It's just a title for a weird redub, meant to be joke. :lol:

TMNT is translated in Finnish as Teini-ikäiset mutanttininjakilpikonnat or Teini-ikäiset mutanttisankarikilpikonnat (the latter is the title of Old Toon in some cases. I actually have no idea why the old toon show was in Europe titled as teenage mutant hero turtles instead of ninja turtles).

The links above were dead, but I found New Toon's opening theme (http://kahesi.net/tmnt/musiikit/tmnt_tv_2003_alku_suomi.mp3) in Finnish. It's from a Finnish fanpage (http://kahesi.net/tmnt/?s=musiikit) called "Turtlesmies's fanpage" (http://kahesi.net/tmnt/?s=etusivu_en) in English.

[Jon]

You don't?

Well, had read that back then apparently "Ninja" was thought of as a 'bad word'. And thus wasn't used in the title when the show was broadcast over there. Along with that, the opening theme was changed (of course); and some material was edited (a big thing being Mikey's nunchucks).

[Drtooth]

Hey, Gobo. There's a little problem. The Japanese 4th ending mp3 link is just a link to the third ending. Just felt I should point it out.

[gobo]

Thanks for bringing that to my attention, Wanda. The Finnish Wikipedia page claims that the 2003 series is 'Teini-ikäiset mutanttininjakilpikonnat'.

And Jon' is correct about the "Hero Turtles" situation. It was all about absurd censorship laws that affected The United Kingdom, The Republic of Ireland, Germany and Sweden. However, as far as I know, no DVDs of 'Hero Turtles' exists other than the live-action series, 'The Next Mutation'.

EDIT: I typed too soon... As for the animated 'Hero Turtles' on DVD, Sweden has seven volumes of three eps each. The UK has no domestic releases of the classic cartoon, but all 26-eps of 'Hero Turtles: The Next Mutation' are available in packaging that boasts the N-word. And, finally, Germany has the first twelve eps of TNM on DVD plus the 24 eps of the classic 'toon we refer to as 'Red Sky'. However, it appears that all of these eps were dubbed for German audiences after their ridiculous laws were already repealed since they utilize both the forbidden N-word and Michaelangelo's 'chucks. In summary, Sweden has animated 'Hero Turtles' DVDs, and the UK only has live-action.

P.S. - Sorry for the confusion, but my audio editing software is giving me problems right now. So, TMNT2K3JPED4.mp3 isn't available just yet. So, I'll probably update with that when I find the Kimeru music vid on YouTube. Being that it was included as CD-Rom content or DVD-video on the single, it should be showing up anytime now.

[gobo]

So, come see what's new, what's old and what YouTube decided to do away with. I'll upload the missing MP3s when I get a chance.

[Raph95]

Does anyone have Japanese HQ raws, as they were available here (http://forums.thetechnodrome.com/showthread.php?t=19083)? I'm interested in Endings 1-3 the most, but in case you have them on PC, please upload them all. Thank you.

Check out the new additions. I'll put up some more MP3s in the near future.

Since this thread was resurrected, I'm going to reiterate this. I was missing a couple of these when searching through my files not too long ago.
