Try me.
I want to see these sarcastic-commented pictures.

Oh, here's a song for Rei!

Album: Evangelion OST 1
Song: Rei II
Reason: I guess it's the only song I heard that can fit how Ayanami shows herself.
It's like, a sad, dreadful, mournful instrumental like how Ayanami is depicted in the series.

I'm kinda being serious too... Heh.
This was supposed to be a joke, but, I guess it came out to have a purpose.

See, it's sort of a given that that would suit Rei since IT'S HER THEME MUSIC.
Tell me, is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes
You'll just have to claw your way through this disguise!

It was supposed to be a sarcastic comment at first.

I have no idea how I should explain why I thought about this song, but here it is:

Story of the Year

Until the Day I Die

Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you...

As years go by
I race the clock with you
But if you died right now
You know that I'd die to, I'd die too

You remind me of the times
When I knew who I was
But still the second hand will catch us
Like it always does

We'll make the same mistakes
I'll take the fall for you
I hope you need this now
Cause I know I still do

Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you

Should I bite my tongue
Until blood soaks my shirt?
We'll never fall apart
Tell me why this hurts so much

My hands are at your throat
And I think I hate you
But still we'll say, "remember when"
Just like we always do
Just like we always do

Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you

Yeah I'd spill
My heart!
Yeah I'd spill my heart for you!

My hands are at your throat, and I think I hate you
We made the same mistakes, mistakes like friends do

My hands are at your throat, and I think I hate you
We made the same mistakes

Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you

Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die
I'll spill my heart for you

Until the day I die

Until the day I die!

I'm just looking
Just looking for a way around
It disappears this near
You're the rod I'm water
I'm just looking for the divine hammer

One divine hammer

I'm just looking for one divine hammer
I'd bang it all day
Oh the carpenter goes bang
Bang bang
I'm just looking for the divine hammer

One divine hammer

I'm just looking for a faith
Waiting to be followed
It disappears this near
You're the rod I'm water
I'm just looking for one divine hammer

One divine hammer

I have one for Shinji: Bohemian Rhapsody

And one for Rei, Asuka, and Shinji (atleast in my opinion): Everything is alright by Motion City Soundtrack

Tell me that you're alright
yeah everything is alright.
oh please tell me that you're alright.
yeah everything is alright.

Give me a reason to end this discussion,
To break with tradition, to fold and divide.
'Cause I hate the ocean, theme parks and airplanes,
Talking with strangers, waiting in line.
I'm through with these pills that make me sit still.
Are you feeling fine?
Yes, I feel just fine.

Tell me that you're alright.
yeah everything is alright.
oh please tell me that you're alright.
yeah everything is alright.

I'm sick of the things I do when I'm nervous
Like cleaning the oven or checking my tires
Or counting the number of tiles in the ceiling.
Head for the hills, the kitchen's on fire!

I used to rely on self-medication.
I guess I still do that from time to time.
But I'm getting better at fighting the future.
Someday you'll be fine.
Yes, I'll be just fine.

Tell me that you're alright.
yeah everything is alright.
oh please tell me that you're alright.
yeah everything is alright.

Give me a reason
(I don't believe a word)
To end this discussion
(Of anything I heard)
To break with tradition
(They tell me that its not so hard)
to fold and divide
(It's not so hard)
So let's not get carried
(Away with everything)
Away with the process
(From Here to in-between)
of elimination
(The long Goodbye)
I don't want to waste your time.

Tell me that you're alright.
yeah everything is alright.
oh please tell me that you're alright.
yeah everything is alright.

(Alright)
Tell me that you're alright.
(hi, everything's great)
yeah everything is alright.
(hey, everything's fine)
oh please tell me that you're alright.
(hi, everything's great)
yeah everything is alright.

Hey, everything's fine.
Hey, everything's fine.
Hey, everything's fine.
Hey, everything's fine.

Takumi Fujiwara, that song is great. It sounds very familiar somehow, like from a trailer for an epic movie or something.

The chants remind me of a mixture of Nightwish and the fight scenes in Vision of Escaflowne for an odd reason. Whatever, still great.

EDIT Oh, I almost forgot:

Shinji

Alkaline Trio - Mercy Me

It's been a long day living with this
It's been a long time since I felt so sick
I took a long walk straight back home
I could've walked back to San Francisco
I used to long for time alone
I used to long for a place of my own
now I'm losing faith in everything
I'm lost, so lost, i'm lost at sea, you'll see

I used to long for broken bones
I used to long for a casket to call my own
I never had a problem facing fear
but I'm done, over and out my dear and

Oh mercy me
God bless catastrophe
There's no way in hell
We'll ever live to see through this so
Drive yourself insane tonight
It's not that far away and I just
filled up your tank earlier today
(Yeah!)

It's been a long day living with this
It's been a long time since I felt so sick
I took a long walk straight back home

and I've lost faith in everything
I'm lost, so lost, I'm lost without you

Oh mercy me
God bless catastrophe
There's no way in hell
We'll ever live to see through this so
Drive yourself insane tonight

^ Double post, damnit.

Anyway, another song.

Shinji

System Of A Down - Soldier Side

Dead man lying on the bottom of the grave
Wondering when savior comes is he gonna be saved
Maybe you’re a sinner into your alternate life
Maybe you’re a joker
Maybe you deserve to die

They were crying when their sons left
God is wearing black
He’s gone so far to find no hope he’s never coming back
They were crying when their sons left
All young men must go
He’s come so far to find the truth he’s never going home

Young men standing on the top of their own graves
Wondering when Jesus comes are they gonna be saved
Cruelty to the winner, bishop tells the king his lies
Maybe you’re a mourner
Maybe you deserve to die

They were crying when their sons left
God is wearing black
He’s gone so far to find no hope he’s never coming back
They were crying when their sons left
All young men must go
He’s come so far to find the truth he’s never going home

Welcome to the soldier side
Where there’s no one here but me
People all grow up to die
There is no one here but me
Welcome to the soldier side
Where there’s no one here but me
People on the soldier side
There is no one here but me

This one really reminds me of Gendo; to me it seems to really sum out what the state of his mind is.

Motorhead- Out of the Sun

The wind is cold where I live,
The blizzard is my home,
Snow and ice and loaded dice, the Wizard lives alone,
The wind is cold where I live, whie and cold, and clean,
White and cold and bought and sold and heartbreak in between,
And so we shall see what is done and done and done.
Trees are stone where I live, leaves of razor steel,
High and low and ice and snow, broken on the wheel,
Trees are stone where I live, flowers made of glass,
Cold and white and wrong and right and voices from the past.
And all our yesterdays are now undone.
Out of the sun

Frozen and insane, I alone remain,
Held in the vice of my disdain,
There is now way that anyone will ever,
Make me warm again.

Life is death where I live, frozen grin my smile,
Sun is moon and out of tune, broken strings and bile,
Death is life where I live, hearts turned into stone,
Frozen breath, and froze death and prisons made of bone.
And so we shall see what become's become,
Out of the sun.


And this one really reminds me of what Kaji tells Shinji and Misato
Motorhead- Listen to your heart

Here we are, about to blow a fuse
Hold it down, 'cause if you move you lose
Give me time, I need to make mistakes
Give me love, before my poor heart breaks
Listen to your heart, understand or die
Listen to your heart, before you say goodbye
Don't you see, the truth is always close
Eyes are wide, just like you seen a ghost
Give me hope, 'cause I was never sure
Give me faith, 'cause I was never yours

Listen to your heart, and don't tell me no lies
Listen to your heart, Tell the truth or die
Listen to your heart, listen all your life
Listen to your heart, and then you'll be alright
Look into my eyes, before you say good-bye
Raise your hand, if you deserve the blame
If you can, them you won't die ashamed
Give me strength, so I can make a stand
Give me light, so I can show my hand
Listen to your heart, Look me in the eyes
Listen to your heart, Before you say good-bye
Listen to your heart, Tell me the truth or die
Listen to your heart, and then you'll be alright
Listen, Listen, Listen to your heart
Tell me, is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes
You'll just have to claw your way through this disguise!

Weird Al. Parody of "I think we're alone now" by...someone. Bjork, I think.

Actually, you're thinking of Tiffiany. '80s pop sensation. Posed in Playboy.
Anyhoo, it's great that there's a thread about this, because I was just about to put up a thread about songs that I think of in certain Eva situations. It might be a little off topic, but here goes:
Any time that any of the three main characters are naked, or nudity is implied, I get Soul Bossa Nova from Quincy Jones stuck in my head. It should be familiar to anyone who's an Austin Powers fan.
Whenever there's a shot of that long-ass escelator, I'm reminded of the Breakfast Machine song from Pee-wee's Big Adventure. Someone should know what I'm talking about...
When Shinji runs away in episode 3 (did I get that right?), all I can think of is the sad "going away" song from the Hulk TV movies. There's a Family Guy reference in there...
That bit in episode 6, where Shinji and Rei are talking before they get into their Evas to do that sniping of that funny-looking Angel, I tend to think of two U2 songs: "One",off of Achtung Baby, and the similiar-sounding "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)" off of Zooropa.

More as I think of 'em. Remember, I've only seen the first six episodes off of Adult Swim, so your mileage on these opinions will vary.

Another song for the emo kid, Shinji.

Hope of the States - Me Ves Y Sufres

I've got no good in me for anybody
I've been ruined by the lies I told to everybody
It's so desperately sad that my life has come to this
I hope there's something better than this for me

I used to think I had something to say
But my dumb ideologies gave me away
I keep my mouth shut, but it's always the same
Over and over and over again

Today I am wrong again, but it's not surprising
Once more heaven has forgotten me so everybody
Clap your hands together for me, as I watch my world collapse
Don't waste your sympathy on me, cause I made it all

I used to think I had something to say
But my dumb ideologies gave me away
I keep my mouth shut, but it's always the same
Over and over and over again

My mistakes happen so much it's success
But I'll drag you all down into my sorry mess
I said I was sorry, but it's always the same
Over and over and over again

I have been doomed from the first time I tried
To find something to save me from all of my lies
I'm always fake, and it's always the same
Over and over and over and over again

You mean "Berzerker"? It's on the CLERKS soundtrack. Along with Alice in Chains, which was really surprising on such an indie film, but CLERKS was considered to be the ultimate slacker, Gen-X film. It's also the only film where I literally fell out of my seat in the theater laughing. It was like an epileptic fit.

At one point we wanted to make an otaku version of CLERKS, where a guy would read off a list of Eva doujinshi he was ordering: "Shinji & Kaworu 2: The K-Y Connection...Asuka-Worshipping Rimjobbers..."
