meanwhile search Helloween songs with spanish lyrics for understand better, i found an Hisao song.Goes like a ring in the finger, and works for all the routes.
Helloween - In The Middle Of A Heartbeat
edit: why,Helloween, why your rock ballads are so awesome and fit with this so well...
For Rin, the most appropriate song I can think of is Björk - Hyperballad, a dreamlike song about a girl with a destructive personality.

I was thinking about this very topic just today as I was listening to Pandora radio (Listening to my favorite station, one I made myself called "Thinking Man's Radio") and I was trying to think up good options for each of the characters that still fit the overall "feel" of KS. Still working on it, but I'm pretty positive I have Hisao's theme dead-on:
Hisao: Dreaming with a Broken Heart - John Mayer
(Seriously, it's like this song was written for him!)
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
You roll outta bed and down on your knees
And for the moment you can hardly breathe
Wondering was she really here?
Is she standing in my room?
No she's not, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
She takes you in with your crying eyes
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?
No she can't, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....
Now do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand
Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Would you get them if i did?
No you won't, 'cause you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
If that's not "Hisao" I don't know what is.
For the girls I'm still working on it
Rin - "Once in a Lifetime" - Talking heads (Not entirely sure about this one, it's a bit upbeat for Rin, but it seems thematically correct for her.)
Lilly: "Fields of Gold" - Sting
Emi - Still working on it
Shizune - Still working on it

If I had my way, every song in the game would be the Nurse's theme.
Shizune's theme: (can't decide between that and - although they are very different, they each convey two different sides of her, I think.
Misha's theme:
The Student Council:
Lilly's theme:
Teatime:
Rin's Theme:
Painting: (Spotify version:
Emi's Theme:
Running:
Hanako's Theme:
Chess:
Kenji's theme:
Hisao's theme:

To continue from my previous post:
Kenji: Gay Bar - Electric Six
Hideaki: Dude Looks Like a Lady - Aerosmith
Akira: BEER! - Psychostick
Nurse: Like a Surgeon - Weird Al Yankovich
Emi's mother: Stacy's Mom - Foutains of Wayne (Man that song was terrible)
There has to be a good song for Jigoro, but I'm really struggling to think of one.

Not so much a song for a specific character but for the routes in general
Damaged People - Depeche Mode

I'm reminded of Hanako by these two songs...
"Sammy's Song" by David Bromberg
and
"She Can Blow Your Mind" by the Pendulum. (Not the Pendulum you're thinking of.)
And this amazing song, "Listen" by Tears For Fears, seems to me like it would fit in any H-scene. It's very powerful.

Hanako - Undisclosed Desire by Muse
From the first lyric, this song just seems to be about her.
Bigbishounen totally has Hisao pinned down with those lyrics!
