Top Comments of this video!! :3
I love this version of Jane- in the play she simply sounds desperate as she sings.
Here she is frustrated, as if she is facing the fact the choir can’t give her the answers she needs.
She knows she’s human but doesn’t know what being human / alive means.
For the majority of the play, the choir shuns her.
Can’t fault them- she is a waking morbid existential crisis with a human body with a porcelain dolls head.
So the frustration she feels is also wanting to be part of the group, but unable to do so.
Of course she doesn’t realize she is non-verbally communicating her frustration. She is just desperate for a name, and doesn’t realize she is also desperate to not be an outsider.
Which makes the New Birthday Song more impactful-
They can’t give Jane her name but they can make her feel human.

Something interesting that I loved.
In the original song, nostalgia is felt above all, beyond the middle you can feel the despair, melancholy and sadness of Jane Doe not knowing who she is.
However in this cover I feel more anger, and disappointment, almost like someone demanding justice.
I love the slight difference

for those who don't know the story of this character, I'll tell it here (Contains spoilers)
She is part of a musical that tells the story of 6 teenagers who died in an accident on a roller coaster, the corpses of 5 of them were identified, except hers, which was found decapitated, and when the six arrived in the afterlife, they played a game to finally vote on who deserved to come back to life
All the participants in this game have told a little bit about themselves in these songs, but as seen in the song by "Jane", she doesn't remember any information about herself at all, and with that, she wins the game and is given a second chance to live, as everyone else has had a life with memories except her
It ends up having a good ending, where Jane's whole life (who is also revealed to be named Penny) plays on a screen, there she had a good childhood, grew up, got married, gave birth to children, raised a family, worked, aged and passed away peacefully by age, the other 5 characters passed to the afterlife peacefully

I think this would be Jane if she DIDNT get picked, being angry instead of sad, at first she was just feeling sorry for herself but here in this version she’s FURIOUS SHE was supposed to be chosen but she wasn’t and now she’s asking WHY LORD THIS IS NO WAY TO DIE LORD, THIS IS UNFAIR
AND I LOVE THIIIIIS
