Music You Associate With Eva and Eva Characters

Almost every song by the British Rock band Fightstar. Specifically their first full length Grand Unification which they admitted was heavily influenced by NGE, but the extent of which wasn't noticed until after finishing it.
Specific songs from the album:
- "Lost Like Tears In Rain"
- "Here Again (Last Conversation)"
- "Build An Army"
- "Mono" *Utterly amazing. Won them several awards.*
- "Waste A Moment"
They have also written songs that are 100% NGE based which are:
- "Nerv/Seele" *One of their heaviest songs*
- "Shinji Ikari"
Fightstar incorporates numerous genres into their sound. One minute they are alternative, the next they are metal, the next they are orchestral, then they are hardcore. The best way to describe them is that they have the musical ambition and scope similar to Deftones. I highly recommend checking them out!!

I was watching a Teen Titans AMV* set to "Young" by Hollywood Undead, and the imagery of destruction reminded me of Evangelion.... At which point I rewatched the video, seeing if the lyrics would also apply to NGE.
Well.
All together,
Walk alone against all we've ever known
All we've ever really wanted
Was a place to call our home;
But you take all we are - the innocence of our hearts -
Make us kneel before the alter
as you tear us apart!
We are strong;
We don't belong;
Born in this world as it all falls apart;
We will fight,
Or we will fall,
Till the Angels "save" us all...
*I'd highly recommend checking out his YT channel. He's made a number of really well-done "Eva" videos in addition to his "Teen Titans" effort.

[qoute]And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals,

we've come too far to have to give it all up now,
we live lives that are rich and blessed,

And overall, the tone of the song is very melancholic and very fitting of NGE.

Each verse reminds me of a different character
Rei
She was just 17,
pious and pretty with a deadly disease,
and the weight of the world on her prosthetic shoulder,
and by the summer of '96,
her body was cracked like porcelain,
just like some precious moments collectible,
in a hospital gown and a big bright golden halo...
Shinji, Asuka and Rei
And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals,
and now let's hear it for the tears that i've welled up,
we've come too far to have to give it all up now,
we live lives that are rich and blessed,
and we'll burn for how we transgress...
Asuka
Now i've mastered the art,
of the open casket prayer and the singing guitar,
and i've found the rewards weren't half what i'd hoped for,
and meanwhile we all feigned hope and mirth,
as her parents went on and lied to her,
all about the success of the surgeries,
and how my ex-girlfriend was now sleeping with her fiance...
Shinji, Asuka and Rei
[qoute]And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals,
and now let's hear it for the tears that i've welled up,
we've come too far to have to give it all up now,
we live lives that are rich and blessed,
and we'll burn for how we transgress...[/quote]
Shinji
If there's any justice in heaven,
Then God won't let me in,
He'll lock the gates and take my weekend pass away,
With a sympathetic wave they'll see me off
Reserve my golden crown while I am cursed to walk the earth for a millenia,
I know I deserve worse but it terrifies me and I can't take it anymore...
Shinji, Asuka and Rei
And so three cheers for my morose and grieving pals,

A good back and forth between Kaji and Misato
Good morning baby, guess you wanna touch me now
You wanna put your hands on my face
Tell me you love me,
Tell me you need me
Don't say you love me
Don't say anything...
'Cause I am not that kind of man, I'm much less than you think I am...
So many people are just like Jesus,
They drag all this weight, to get to anything better than...
Where they've been
Or where they are
Well tell me what the hell's the reason when we never get
anywhere...
But you want me to say "Hey, it's okay..."
But I'm so dizzy baby, just get the hell away from me...
How can you breathe?
How can you see?
I can't even sleep when you're with me...
I'm sick of summertime
I know, all of the best things in life are unkind
To be everything I could be, anything
But all the time I'm thinking, "If I only had a pair of wings..."
But you want touch me
Just get your hands off me
Don't touch me
And baby, I can't see that you see
How can you see?
How can you breathe?
I can't feel a thing when you're with me...
I can't take it this way, I hope you understand,
Don't you fucking touch me
I can hardly stand to look at you
How can you breathe?
How can you see?
How can you breathe?
How can you see?
I can't even sleep when you're with me
How can you breathe?
How can you see?
I can't feel...
I can't feel a thing...
Can't feel a thing...
Can't feel a thing...
Can't feel a thing...

Albert's always sincere, he's a sensitive type
His intentions are clear, he wanna be well-liked
If everything is nothing, then are we anything?
Is it better to be better than to be anything?
And Albert's vision is blooming uncontrolled
All his wings are slowly sinking
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
All the king's men reappear
For an eggman, on and off the wall
Who'll never be together again
Einstein's down on the beach staring into the sand
Cause everything he believes in is shattered
What you fear in the night in the day comes to call anyway-ay
We all get burned as:
One more sun comes sliding down the sky
One more shadow leans against the wall
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, on and off the wall
Who'll never be together again
Albert's waiting in the sun
On a field American
For the cause of some inflated form of hit and run
One more sun comes sliding down the sky
One more shadow leans against the wall
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, fallin' off the wall
Will never be together again
Albert's fallen on the sun
Cracked his head wide open
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, falling, falling
The world begins to disappear
The worst things come from inside here
And all the king's men reappear
For an eggman, fallin' off the wall
Will never be together again
No never be together again
No no never never never again, uh huh
What you fear in the night in the day comes to call anyway

Balls.
Whenever I hear the Rishloo song Illumination I'm reminded of eva
lets see this how chorus goes.
lets see this how chorus goes.
Tonight I cannot rest because I ache
Tomorrow brings the agony of day
To sleep perchance to dream of all that's lost
And all the things we'll never get to say
In the echoes of anger
Brought from silence too late
In this moment of disaster
There's a clarity
To hate

Handel's Messiah of course, went to a live performance in 2006, teared up a little when it came to the ending of the second act.
Blues Skies, always thought it could substitute/compliment Fly Me to the Moon.
But most evidently, Billy Joel's She's Always a Women:
She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child, but she's always a woman to me
She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth, but she'll never believe
And she'll take what you give her as long it's free
Yeah she steals like a thief, but she's always a woman to me
Ohhh... she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants, she's ahead of her time
Ohhh... and she never gives out
And she never gives in, she just changes her mind
And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding
But she'll bring out the best and the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a woman to me
Ohhh... she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants, she's ahead of her time
Ohhh... and she never gives out
And she never gives in, she just changes her mind
She's frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool
And she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me.
Mhm hm hm mhm hmm, Mh hm hm mhm hmm

^ Yeah, since 2002 I've never once heard that and not thought of a certain estrogen Molotov cocktail. Probably might be why it remains on my MP3 player.

The song "Night of the Hunter" by 30 Seconds to Mars reminds me of EVA, especially End of Evangelion.

Terminally down bad for Asuka x Mari since 2013.
I just Shinji'd in my pants.

Well the song doesn't really have much to do with Eva at all, but it's the song that familiarized me with Eva and sparked my interest.

Whenever I listen to Dan Gibson's cello piece "Cool Forest Rain" (http://youtu.be/aEzg9Bm26XY), I'm reminded quite vividly of a) Rei and b) the opening menu music of the Platinum DVD set*.
*After some forum digging, I discovered the name of that track is "Tokyo-3"... And the reason it's reminding me of Rei is because it's very similar to the "Rei II" theme.
It's the sound of - or at least feel of - water/fluid combined with a mournful, slightly foreboding string instrument that really does it...
And for good measure (just so I can cover all of the DVD menu music! ;)), here's "Hedgehog's Dilemma."

Devin Townsend's Deconstruction has a certain air of Eva about it. Here are the lyrics to the title track:
SPOILER: Show
'Excuse me, this is my point with the brain: You could take anything! …a benign object of any sort…you could take anything, you could take a cheeseburger and deconstruct it to its source'
Cheeseburger!
Cheeseburger!
Cheeseburger!
Cheeseburger!
Cheeseburger!
Cheeseburger!
Cheeseburger!
Love meat!
I want to eat myself as the flesh of ancient gods!
What's the point of this? Where's the happiness we've been promised??
Drugs sex and money??? FINE.
OOOH, THEN I NEED TO GET MYSELF SOME GOOD DRUGS
THEN WHEN I GET THE MONEY…LADIES WILL ALL KNOW THAT I'M THE MAAAANNN…
'CAUSE I AIN'T GONNA BE QUESTING FOR SEX IF I AN'T LIVIN' IN POVERTY AND I AN'T GOT NO DISEASE…
…In fact you could say I was a LOGICAL CHOICE!
WOOAH! Just look at HIM, and look at HER! HA!
Running in the circles and then opening the bar!
BAR'S CLOSED BOYS, I'M AN ARTIST!
So, with art without heart,
We will never know the songs!
(We will never…we will never…)
With art, without heart…
We will never know! we will NEVER KNOW!
'It's just terrifying! …There's nothing but reality! …An Infinite void of NOTHING! Where do we fit!? Where's the lines..???!!?? I can't even find my own mind!!! ...I CAN'T FIND!!!'
ENOUGH!!! I've had it up to here, and I am not afraid of fear!
ENOUGH!!! I've had it up to here,
...JUST GET IT OUT OF YOUR SYSTEM!!!!
Show me...
So you'd love to run from pain?
So you've gone and you've closed off from god.
…closed off from your true nature in 'I'.
Closed off to your own self!
NOW, on the border of the broken chasm, the infamy of man was stretched along.
Beholding as they descend, and the reign of man is FLEETING!
Enraptured in an illusion in which we all belong,
…And our purpose is acknowledgement of the void?!?
THEN VOID ON ME IN WAVEFORMS!!!
Did you ever had one of those…those days?
SHIT A BRICK!
(I know, why I know why I know I am…)
(I know, why I know why I know I am…)
Waveforms of waveforms, vibration waveform, way of the waveforms of vibration.
'Here it comes…SHOW ME!'
'Woah! good lord, it's a cheeseburger!!!'

On the first page of our story
The future seemed so bright
Then this thing turned out so evil
I don't know why I'm still surprised
Even angels have their wicked schemes
And you take that to new extremes
But you'll always be my hero
Even though you've lost your mind...

Ooo, nice find.
I don't suppose a song would technically "remind" me of Evangelion if it actually *is* in Evangelion, but I've been listening Beethoven's 9th Symphony (aka "Ode to Joy"). All 72 minutes of it. Said listen was 40% inspired by its epic use in Eva, and 60% from the realization that if *Beaker* could make it epic, I should really check this song out.

...and as promised, here's the first of a couple of posts filled with these things.
First, let's get the obvious-for-me thing out of the way and put up a few that bring the LAS dynamic to mind (varying levels of "shipping lenses" may be needed to see it).
Green Day - Pulling Teeth SPOILER: Show
I'm all busted up
Broken bones and nasty cuts
Accidents will happen
But this time, I can't get up
She comes to check on me
Making sure I'm on my knees
After all, she's the one
Who put me in this state
Is she ultra-violent?
Is she disturbed?
I better tell her I love her
Before she does it all over again
Oh God, she's killing me
For now, I'll lie around
Hell, that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keep saying my love is true
Is she ultra-violent?
Is she disturbed?
I better tell her I love her
Before she does it all over again
Oh God, she's killing me
Looking out my window
For someone that passing by
No one knows I'm locked in here
All I do is cry
For now, I'll lie around
Hell, that's all I can really do
She takes good care of me
Just keep saying my love is true
Broken bones and nasty cuts

Coldplay - Trouble SPOILER: Show
Oh no, I see
A spider web, it's tangled up with me
And I lost my head
The thought of all the stupid things I'd said
Oh no, what's this?
A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle
So I turned to run
The thought of all the stupid things I've done
And I never meant to cause you trouble
I never meant to do you wrong
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble
Oh no, I never meant to do you harm
Oh no, I see
A spider web, and it's me in the middle
So I twist and turn
Here am I, in love in a bubble
Singing, I never meant to cause you trouble
And I never meant to do you wrong
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble
Although I never meant to do you harm
They spun a web for me

Green Day - Extraordinary Girl SPOILER: Show
She's an extraordinary girl
In an ordinary world
And she can't seem to get away
He lacks the courage in his mind
Like a child left behind
Like a pet left in the rain
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days, he feels like dying
She gets so sick of crying
She sees the mirror of herself
An image she wants to sell
To anyone willing to buy
He steals the image in her kiss
From her heart's apocalypse
From the one called Whatsername
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days, he feels like dying
She gets so sick of crying
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days, he feels like dying
Some days, it's not worth trying
Now that they're both up on it
She gets so sick of crying

Incubus - Dig SPOILER: Show
We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easier to identify
Look me in the eye
And ask for forgiveness
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes, you are my friend
We all have something that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how hard we try
We all have someone that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone
Oh, each other
When everything else is gone
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering

As soon as I get my head 'round you
I come around, catching sparks off you
I get an electric charge from you
That secondhand living, it just won't do
And the way I feel tonight
I could die and I wouldn't mind
And there's something going on inside
Makes you want to feel, makes you want to try
Makes you want to blow the stars from the sky
I can't stand up, I can't cool down
I can't get my head off the ground
As soon as I get my head 'round you
I come around, catching sparks off you
And all I ever got from you
Was all I ever took from you
And the world could die in pain
And I wouldn't feel no shame
And there's nothing holding me to blame
Makes you want to feel, makes you want to try
Makes you want to blow the stars from the sky
And I'm taking myself to the dirty part of town
Where all my troubles can't be found
Makes you want to feel, makes you want to try
Makes you want to blow the stars from the sky
And I can't stand up, I can't cool down
