Ok maybe I'm stretching it here, but I heard this song "Telavators" from the band Mars Volta if you want you can listen to it and see the video from their website http://themarsvolta.com/index_main.html
though despite the video having an eva like creaturem (if you see it you'll se what I mean) I think it takes away from the song-- you need a really good recording to here the feeling behind the song.
Ok anyways to the point. I think this song would be a near perfect match for a video with Evangelion as long as you don't concentrate on one character. If you focus on the series as a whole I think a great video can be made from this song. Read the lyrics below, but know that they are not limited to this, if you here the song you'll realize the the chorus plays a bigger role in certain sections.
It's hard to explain why I feel this why, I just thought of Eva after listening to this song (don't watch the video for this song if you don't have to).
My two bits.
Telavators
Just as he hit
The ground
They lowered a tow that
Stuck in his neck to the gills
Fragments of sobiquets
Riddle me this
Flinch stitcheing
Aureole
Stalk the ground
Stalk the ground
You should have seen
The curse that flew right by you
Page of concrete
Stained walks crutch in hobbled sway
Autodafe
A capulary hint of red
Only this manupod
Crescent in shape has escaped
The house half the way
Fell empty with teeth
That split both his lips
Mark these words
One day this chalk outline will circle this city
Was he robbed of the asphalt that cushioned his face
A room colored charlatan
Hid in a safe
Stalk the ground
Stalk the ground
You should have seen
The curse that flew right by you
Page of concrete
Stain walks crutch in hobbled sway
Autodafe
A capulary hint of red
Only this manupod
Crescent in shape has escaped
Pull the pins
Save your grace
Mark these words
On his grave
You should have seen
The curse that flew right by you
Page of concrete
Stain walks crutch in hobbled sway
Autodafe
A capulary hint of red
Everyone knows the last toes are
Always the coldest to go
Mars Volta song for Evangelion

Well, a lot of MV would work very well for Eva. I don't know if he still is, but my brother was thinking of using Eriatarka from the same album for an Eva AMV.
Frankly, I don't know if it would come off as all that original with Eva; but I'm all for Mars Volta AMV's 100%. I think I've only seen one thus far.
I'd consider making a Mars Volta AMV, but I vowed to not touch Eva after my latest video

The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…
