A thought that came to mind: What if the first time Doug heard a song, he was watching a music video of it?
Might his subconscious key to something he saw in the video?
I have this image in my head of Doug keying up Europe's Final Countdown and having an Eva unit launch behind him...

Actually, one of Doug's songs is like that -- influenced by the video -- and damn! I can't remember which one it was, now.

That video was my first exposure to actual Eva footage (I'd read NXE, but hadn't seen NGE yet), and has become my quintessential "vision" of Eva. An incredibly well done video, and powerful too. I recommend it to anyone who has any interest in music videos.
On a side note, I wonder not only if a video could influence a song on first watching, but if it could take a song that had initially _not_ triggered the magegift and tweak it enough to trigger later on...
