This still-image video features two Megumi Hayashibara songs from the Evangelion 2.0 Original Soundtrack is currently standing high among Nico’s rankings, both for the legendary seiyuu’s involvement and also a massive outpouring of grief over the movie’s most spoiler-filled scene.
Spoiler Warning: Those proficient in Japanese and fearful of massive spoilers are encouraged to turn off comments on Nico while watching the otherwise safe video and to give online discussions of the movie (such as this post) a wide berth.
The two songs (starting at 0:52 after a lengthy intro) are in order:
今日の日はさようなら / Kyou no Hi wa Sayounara (Farewell to the Days of Today)
翼をください / Tsubasa o Kudasai (Wings, Please)

fuck should of turned the comments off... now im gona be sad for a few days.
Man, need voice replaced by vocaloids!
Sorry Megumi...
no
So that's why my mother started to sing along when I was listening to those songs. xD
In the second Shiro Sagisu CD, they're noted as being tributes to Sound of Music.
It is very good music!!
Anything Megumi sings is just great, and ive listened to pretty much everything and i have at least one very rare one...
really goota grab it
Spill the beans y'all, what happens?
From what I could tell, Asuka karks it, yes? Why the huge change in story?
She dosn't die.You can see her badly injured in a NERV underground hospital.In the preview for the next movie she is seen wearing an eyepatch.
heh...
Very annoying.
Can't wait for this movie, though.
Megumi's had significantly better songs before. These are not up to her usual standards. Bleh
If you only like the Slayers ones, I can't blame you
Agreed, these suck.
Annoying songs.
that is odd, I think Tsubasa o Kudasai is a K-ON insert song? correct if I'm wrong
There's even a vocaloid version of that song that dates from long before K-On!'s anime.
It's a pop song from the 1970s. Everybody and their mother in Japan has covered it.
I think it's an old song from the 70s.
Tsubasa wo Kudasai: a popular song dating back to 1971 by the band Akai Tori. Its chorus is influenced by Pachelbel's Canon in D. Since then many covers of this song have been created. ;D
sweet!!!

is nicez
it just fits well for the deep-sensation feeling of Evangelion , and it's really not a bad one esp coming from a clasic genre. Peeps these days doesn't know how to appreciate a little anymore , other than it's virtually hard to please everyone , all other people knows is just to bash and troll everything , let alone the issue of respect. Guess that's the new generation for you today.
he's ruining evangelion!!
You're ruining my eyes!
