Shinji: Dyers Eve - Metallica.
Just listen to it and try not to think that sounds like something he'd feel or say or sing.

This fits Misato a lot if you interpret her alcoholism as being a serious issue (which I do).

I should add "Beautiful" is a really good fit for evagellion as a whole, this is literally a sum up of evagellion's story:
"in my shoes, just to see what it's like to be me
I'll be you, let's trade shoes
Just to see what it'd be like to
Feel your pain, you feel mine
Go inside each other's minds
Just to see what we find
Look at shit through each other's eyes
But don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful
They can all get fucked, just stay true to you
Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful
They can all get fucked, just stay true to you"

Haven't seen the Webuilds, but in NGE they certainly do. Yui-sama, Kyoko-sama... Rei-sama? Yes, 00 is Rei-sama. Oh, and we can't forget Toji's-Mother-sama in 03.

This Song reminds me of Shinji

Don't. Know why I'm down here.
Must be something I said. . . I'm sorry.
Or some small imperfection.
In my soul. . . or in my. . . head.

Re: What songs would you best suit to an Eva character?
This fits Shinji, I guess, but it could apply to the entire cast:
Simon & Garfunkel - I Am a Rock
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKlSVNxLB-A
I build walls
a fortress deep and mighty
that none may penetrate
I have no need of friendship
friendship causes pain
its laughter and its loving I disdain
I am a rock
I am an island
...
I have my books
and my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room,
safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me

Re: Music You Associate With Eva and Eva Characters
Valley of the Damned by Dragonforce, I think it would fit well with Sahaquiel's plummet and Asuka's fight with the MPEs.
My Spirit Will Go On by Dragonforce, I think would fit well with Rei's sacrifice against Armisael.

Re: Music You Associate With Eva and Eva Characters
For some reason I feel this piece suits Shinji well. Or Misato. Or both. Does it?
The White Army
This is your banner, our young friend
You don't have to love its colors
This is your army and life on the run
You won't be alone anymore
At last you can choke with air
And soar like a bird
At last you can walk astray in the city
You were born to serve us
The time has come
This is the time
You're the rudder, the white soldier
You wear trousers, so fight
You're the sail, a mad wind
Your strength's like a jewel
God's with us and His truth
Shall save you like a shield
You were waiting so long for this day
Come along with us, with the fragile dreams
With the trust you still have
JUSTICE & MERCY
Re: Music You Associate With Eva and Eva Characters
Lots of songs by Radiohead have the type of mood or atmosphere that I associate with Evangelion and a surprisingly a lot of lyrics fit with it too. How to Disappear Completely really has the vibe and lyrics that match Evangelion well. Going along with that, I saw an AMV of 2+2=5 but Radiohead paired with Evangelion that was really well done but I can't recall who made it.

Re: Music You Associate With Eva and Eva Characters
The first two albums by Sirenia, At Sixes and Sevens and An Elixir for Existence (and the eerie remix of "Save me from myself" from EP Sirenian Shore) would be pretty good candidates, considering how many songs they have about depression, suicide and mental disorders.

Pretty much anything by Ill Niño reminds me of Eva and Shinji in particular. Especially the songs "What Comes Around" and "Unreal".
