Zankoku na Tenshi no Teze Posted: October 2nd, 2009 10:32 am (Fri) by Divine Fang Last Edited: - Views: 1061 [Permalink] Tag: Anime, Evangelion
	Today's quick post features an epic opening song (OP) of the epic anime Neon Genesis Evangelion, 残酷な天使のテーゼ (Zankoku na Tenshi no Tēze) a.k.a Cruel Angel's Thesis. This highly regarded song in Japan has had multiple covers with the most recent version being sung by Katsura Hinagiku (Shizuka Itou) in Hayate no Gotoku 2nd season episode 12. The full length version was later released in this limited edition vocal track compilation CD. Note: Zankoku na Tenshi no Teze lyrics here. Above: Evangelion OST (photoshop'ed) Listen to the high bitrate Zankoku na Tenshi no Teze by Hinagiku: Above: Katsura Hinagiku - Zankoku na Tenshi no Teze Nothing beats the original. Listen to HQ full length version by original singer Takahashi Youko. Above: Takahashi Youko - Zankoku na Tenshi no Teze Above: Takahashi Youko - Zankoku na Tenshi no Teze Live! The version the I listened to the most since the past few years was Mikuni Shimokawa's cover, found on her Reprise album. Loved her bright and lively vocal!
