Evangelion Songs - Jorlem - 02-07-2011
The newest thread in Shadowjack's Evangelion IWIW has had a number of songs posted that readers think of as related to the show. It might be something to take a look at, assuming you haven't already seen it. (They start at post #11)
Also, I was wondering, what would Komm Susser Tod, from End of Evangelion, do if Doug heard it?

Also. Released March 29th, according to Amazon, IIRC. That surprised me a bit.

Oh, and if I were a poster on that forum -- and if the song stuff had continued past the first few messages -- I would have suggested the following:
"Engel"
(Rammstein)
Wer zu Lebzeit gut auf Erden
wird nach dem Tod ein Engel werden
den Blick gen Himmel fragst du dann
warum man sie nicht sehen kann
Erst wenn die Wolken schlafengehn
kann man uns am Himmel sehn
wir haben Angst und sind allein
Gott weiss ich will kein Engel sein
Sie leben hinterm Sonnenschein
getrennt von uns unendlich weit
sie mussen sich an Sterne krallen (ganz fest)
damit sie nicht vom Himmel fallen
Erst wenn die Wolken schlafengehn
kann man uns am Himmel sehn
wir haben Angst und sind allein
Gott weiss ich will kein Engel sein
Erst wenn die Wolken schlafengehn
kann man uns am Himmel sehn
wir haben Angst und sind allein
Gott weiss ich will kein Engel sein
(Official English translation, which is rather... free
Live in virtue, no desire
In the grave an angel's choir
You look to heaven and wonder why
No one can see them in the sky
Just as the clouds have gone to sleep
Angels can be seen in heaven's keep
Alone in fear they question why
Goddamn not an angel when I die
Angels live, they never die
Apart from us, behind the sky
They're fading souls who've turned to ice
So ashen white in paradise
Just as the clouds have gone to sleep
Angels can be seen in heaven's keep
Alone in fear they question why
Goddamn not an angel when I die
Goddamn an angel when I die
Heaven must be hell in the sky
Artist: CrüXshadows
Song: Winterborn (This Sacrifice)
Album: Ethernaut
Dry your eyes and quietly bear this pain with pride
For heaven shall remember the silent and the brave
And promise me they will never see the fear within our eyes (my eyes are closed)
We will give strength to those who still remain
So bury fear, for fate draws near
And hide the signs of pain
With noble acts, the bravest souls
Endure the heart's remains
Discard regret, that in this debt
A better world is made
That children of a newer day might remember
And avoid our fate
(Prepare for battle)
And in the fury of this darkest hour
We will be your light
You've asked me for my sacrifice
And I am Winter born
Without denying, a faith is come
That I have never known
I hear the angels call my name
And I am Winter born
Hold your head up high for there is no greater love
Think of the faces of the people you defend (you defend)
And promise me they will never see the tears within our eyes (my eyes are closed)
Although we are men, with mortal sins, angels never cry
So bury fear, for fate draws near
And hide the signs of pain
With noble acts, the bravest souls
Endure the heart's remains
Discard regret, that in this debt
A better world is made
That children of a newer day might remember
And avoid our fate
(Prepare for battle)
And in the fury of this darkest hour
We will be your light
You've asked me for my sacrifice
And I am Winter born
Without denying, a faith in God
That I have never known
I hear the angels call my name
And I am Winter born
And in the fury of this darkest hour
I will be your light
A lifetime for this destiny
For I am Winter born
And in this moment I will not run
It is my place to stand
We few shall carry hope
Within our bloodied hands (bloodied hands)
Within this moment
I am for you, though better men have failed
I will give my life for love
For I am Winter born
And in the fury of this darkest hour
We will be the light
You've asked me for my sacrifice
And I am Winter born
Without denying, a faith in man
That I have never known
I hear the angels call my name
And I am Winter born
And in my dying
I'm more alive, than I have ever been
I will make this sacrifice
For I am Winter born
...And just for Pen-pen:
I don't go for fancy cars
For diamond rings
Or movie stars
I go for penguins
Oh Lord I go for penguins
Throw your money out the door
We'll just sit around
And watch it snow
I go for penguins
Oh Lord I go for penguins
Penguins are so sensitive
Penguins are so sensitive
Penguins are so sensitive
To my needs
Penguins are so sensitive
Penguins are so sensitive
Penguins are so sensitive
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
Penguins are so sensitive
Penguins are so sensitive
Penguins are so sensitive
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
To my needs
-- Lyle Lovett, "Penguins"

When Shadowjack did the Kaworu episode, he posted the lyrics of Ode to Joy, with translation, while describing the action as it was lined up with the song. I've never actually knew what that song was saying before now.
And yeah, I agree that Doug would never let that songs power see activate. If he ever heard it once, he'd probably set his helmet to filter out that song in it's entirety. (He can do that, right? I seem to remember something about him having audio filters to keep his powers from activating if he would hear music unintentionally.)

He doesn't actually have active filtering, but his helmet is soundproof and he can if needs cut off the relay of external sounds to his ears.

disappointment reigns, I thought I had a killer 'to hell with it all, end the world in flame' song - Armageddon It, by Def Leppard.
Cue my disappointment when the song is not about destroying everything, as I had remembered, but about scoring chicks.
Quote:"Armageddon It""No can brain today. Want cheezeburger."
Ya better come inside when you're ready to
But no chance if ya don't wanna dance
You like four letter words when you're ready to
But then you won't 'cos you know that you can
You got it, but are you gettin' it?
You say that love is won when you get some
But then your finger won't trigger the gun
You know you (ya) can't stop it
so don't rock it
You know you got it
Hey, but are you gettin' it?
really gettin' it?
Come get it from me
Gimme all of you lovin' - ev'ry little bit
Gimme all that you got - ev'ry bit of it
Ev'ry bit of your lovin - oh, c'mon live a bit
Never want it to stop
Yeah, but are you gettin' it? - Armageddon it!
Ooh, really gettin' it? - Yes, Armaggedon it!
You try comin' on when you need some...
But then you don't 'cos you already did
Yeah, you jangle your jewels while your shakin' ya...
And drive the pretty boys outta their heads
You got it, but are you gettin' it?
You flash your bedroom eyes like a jumpin' jack...
Then play it pretty with a pat on the back
You know you (ya) can't stop it
So don't rock it
You know you got it
Hey, but are you gettin' it?
Ooh, really gettin' it?
Come get it from me
[Repeat Bridge]
[Repeat Chorus]
C'mon, Steve, get it
[guitar solo]
Take it, take it, take it from me
I got an itchy finger following me
Pull it, pull it, c'mon trigger the gun
'Cos the best is (a) yet to come, I say
'Cos the best is yet to come
Are you gettin' it? Really gettin' it?
Yes, are you gettin' it, really gettin' it?
Oh, come get it from me
Gimme all of you lovin' - ev'ry little bit
Gimme all that you got - ev'ry bit of it
Ev'ry bit of your lovin' - Oh come on live a bit
Never want it to stop - Oh, are you getting it?
Gimme all of your lovin' - Ooh really gettin' it?
Gimme all that you got - Oh are you getting it?
Gimme all of your lovin' - Oh live a bit
Gimme all that you got - Whoa, live a bit
You've got to live it - gimme all of your lovin'
Ooh baby live it - gimme all that you got
C'mon and give it - ev'ry bit of your lovin'
Oh come on and give it - Never want it to stop
Oh are you gettin' it? - Gimme all of your lovin'
Ooh really gettin' it? - Gimme all that you got
Oh are you gettin' it? - Ev'ry bit of your lovin'
Oh live a bit - Never want it to stop

Shadowjack made what is almost an AMV, but without any sound or moving pictures. Link.

One has to wonder, sometimes, just what Doug would think of the Evangelion Ending Themes Compilation Album...
Yeah, 'Fly me to the Moon' could be a useful power song.
But twenty different variations on it in a row?
Not so useful, if I'm remembering how Doug's power works correctly.
(I'm envisioning someone who Doesn't Quite Get It buying him this as a Christmas present... either because they figure, hey, big collection, lots of cool songs to pick through... or they might think the different versions might actually work differently for him...)

Different versions do work differently for him. The canonical example is the Simon and Garfunkel version of "Hazy Shade of Winter" vs. the Bangles' version. The first chills the air and puts little patches of snow and ice on the ground around him. The second gives him ice powers.

So a couple of dozen slight variations on the same song... hmm. One might give him interplanetary flight capabilities, another might make him a Fred Astaire-level dancer....
