Ok, I've just discovered several clips of the new Evangelion movies 1.11 You are (not) Alone and 2.22 You can (not) Advance. A full blown fanboy gobsmacked rant is forthcoming on how impressed I am with what I've seen so far, but that's not the purpose of this post.
I've also discovered several uploads of the soundtracks of the two films. And one striking thing is - there are choral parts that in any English film would normally be in Latin. But here they used English!!
I think Doug's talent twigs off of any music sung and with instrumental accompaniment. So here are some links with Lyrics.
KEEP YOUR HEAD ABOVE THE MAYHEM
In the battle of the bravest souls, over evil shall the good prevail,
If the universe is crashing down, heed the chaos and then drown it out,
Showing flashes of bravado, in a torrent of destruction, keep your head
above the mayhem;? clarity will be your weapon as the blinded falter and die.
It's a very simple chorus. But it repeats a couple of times and the track itself is only 2:30 long. Serious tactical insight/combat boost? It doesn't last long, so it better be for something he can get done quick.
IN MY SPIRIT
In my spirit lies my faith
Stronger than love and with me it will be for always
Not much there. But it is a sung part. Repeated several times. Not sure if that qualifies enough to trigger anything. And - not sure WHAT it would trigger, but just throwing it in.
FATE
What will the future hold
How will I be rewarded
Have I the right to riches
In a world where there are no prizes
Who makes? the clock tick by
When will my fate be ready
Do I get prior warning
Am I told? Are there no surprises
I have to count my blessings
I have to learn my lessons
My fate is in the balance
I must go on believing
Again - not suggesting any effect by my own opinion. Just throwing it in.
There are more vocal bits to the soundtrack. But even though Anno is "on his meds" they are still typically disturbing/creepy. Well even more disturbing, creepy, or used in INAPPROPRIATE scenes than the ones above. The above is pretty much used as fight/battle music.
(The child singing "let's be friends" while the dummy plug controlled Eva-01 dismembers Bardiel/Eva-03 is REALLY FUCKING CREEPY/SAD)
