Thank you all for your kind comments! I was not intending for this cover to gain this much attention! In fact, I'm re-releasing it tonight with new and improved vocals and mastering! Please go take a listen when it's uploaded, it would mean the world to me, and I think it would help tell the story the way I intended even better!

For John, I love how the lyrics were changed to
“Like Jane I’ll be, eternally
A forgotten dawn
Never gazed upon…” it’s just
*chef’s kiss*
I love the fact that anytime the original would say "Jane Doe" you can hear "John"
Joan Doe uwu
I love the interpretation of the singer not knowing their gender or not identifying with either name, so both names are sung. That's so goddamn good, I feel like it elevates this cover in a way.
Oh I adore that you changed Jane’s sob on “tell me who I am” into a growl it’s nicely startling
i ..... honestly didn't think i could relate to this song any more but then you went and added a gender crisis to it so THANKS a LOT (for real though this is an amazing cover !!!! great job !!!!!!)
Gender crisis: it's what I do 💚
AAAAAAAAA THIS IS SO FREAKING COOL AND THE EPITOME OF GENDER CRISIS. AS A BIGENDER PERSON, YES JANE/JOHN DOE. YOU CAN HEAR THE FRUSTRATION, THE PAIN, ITS JUST SO MMMMMMMMMM.
I look at every comments like that, saying that "omg, the mix Jane/John is so genius for non binary people" and I just stand here like... Johan seems gender neutral to me...
This is a really awesome cover! Very cool to have two sets of lyrics for john and Jane. I just wished you were growling bit more in the higher notes instead of falsetto
Thank you for your comment! I fully intend on redoing this cover pretty soon, so stay tuned for that!
This is too underrated! Best rendition of this song I’ve heard!
I JUST FOUND THIS AND I AM QUAKING IN MY BOOTS THIS IS FABULOUS
I'm brought here by annapantsu, Justine, and of course the original singer. You interpret this song wonderfully, adding some rage to the despair and sadness already present in this depressed, unresolved person song. As someone who deals with chronic depression, and a long time performing arts kid/adult, I appreciate this song with multiple emotions and nuanced interpretation.
Thank you!!! I'm so glad I was able to resonate with you in my interpretation! Not to self promo or anything, but this cover WAS recorded almost two years ago, so if you'd like, I have some more recent covers you might enjoy, dare I say, even more than this one! Thank you so much for your words! 💚
Me hearing Ballad of Jane Doe for the first time, before finding this: Wow, this is such a Chara Dreemur song, but I doubt any nonbinary people have actually made a gender neutral cover of this song for that to work
Me, upon finding this: *Vine thud sound effect*
I misspelled Dreemurr but I don't want to edit my comment and lose the heart
I...how aren't you more known? This is beautiful and heart wrenching at times, just like Jane Doe
Oooh, this is LOVELY. It's not an easy song to cover, and you did a great job!
this is so great!! i love the name change, and the way you shift your voice on some parts ! its really amazing :)
LOVE HOW YOU MADE LYRICS FOR A JOHN DOE VARIATION THAT'S SO COOL :000
this has me kicking my feet and giggling man, this is SO GOOD OH MY LAWDY LAWD‼️‼️💖
Now that’s what we call a cover ! Amazing work !!
Chills all overrrrrrrr
This is so good! More people need to watch this!
so cool!!!
YOOOOO THIS IS SO GOOD!
oh this is glorious i adore how you sung this! just utterly amazing!
this is amazing you are so talented!! Where did you find the backing track?? I've been looking for ages for one with the backing vocals but cant find one
I put the world premiere cast recording through an online filter! There are some of those posted on UA-cam, but you can feel free to play around with it on your own!
This is AMAZING
AUCK I LOVE THIS COVER SM!! I already relate to Jane does character but this cover just makes it even better!!
YES THIS IS SO GOOD
i love it!
Do you happen to know where I can find this instrumental with the background vocals? I’ve been looking around and can’t find one
This instrumental was created with an online vocal remover. I used x-minus.pro for this, though in about a month, we'll have an original professional instrumental made for our upcoming cover album!
@@croutonwu thanks man, love the cover
The ballad of Jay Doe 🤍
Ok dumb question- is it “a forgotten don” or “a forgotten pawn”? I cannot tell
The lyric I wrote was "a forgotten dawn" :-)
@@croutonwu thank you!!!!
Lyrics?
it would be john doe. that’s what they call people who end up in the hospital with no identification. john doe or jane doe depending on their gender. so the ballad of john doe :)
My edit of the lyrics was made to reflect a gender neutral interpretation of the song. In this interpretation, the singer does not know their gender/does not identify with either Jane or John, and so, both names are sung throughout the song.
Thank you for your time.
@@croutonwu omg I didn’t even realize till I listened back. that’s so cool :0
