Sorry for the late upload! I was travelling today and fell alseep as soon as I got home without setting an alarm. It's a cover thats worth the wait though I think. I appreciate your patience!
Ily anna
We understand.
Day 16 of asking Anna to make a cover of “Kung Fu Fighting” by CeeLo Green from the Kung Fu Panda soundtrack
:D
its okay!
Not-So fun fact, the high notes are heavily implied to be Jane's screams as she's beheaded on the coaster. This song is so morbidly beautiful.
The dance too, the way she's flailing then falling mimics how she fell on the coaster.
I wonder, how did she lose her head?
@@StarMari120 Roller coaster crash, they got thrown around and I guess at some point she was beheaded.
@@bubblybobabubbles I knew about the roller coaster crash but thx!
@@StarMari120 probably metal pole hit her head
Fun fact: the line “Time eats all his children in the end” is a reference to how Kronos, the god of time in Greek mythology ate all his children.
I was thinking that too when I was watching a video on Jane/Penny
Kronos wasn’t actually a god, he was a Titan. His children were gods.
@just_a-friendly_helper4357
Kronos and Chronos are two different Titans.
The father of the Olympians, Kronos, is the titan of the harvest
Cronos and Chronos are different deities, actually. The former ate his children, the second one is the god of time.
Funnily enough, I've never read the lyrics and thought it always said 'Titan eats all his children in the end'
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.
stopppp
you're gonna make me cry
Something I noticed in the play it the fact that no one in the choir calls her Jane Doe.
I think it was sweet that Ricky offered up the name Savannah.
I can't imagine what it must feel like to not know who your are dead or alive the way she wants to know who she is but simply can't remember makes me feel sad for all the Jane and John does that happen In real life dying is one thing but dying and having nobody know who you were is bad to
@@therealopaartistAnd allowed her to be a Savannah with the greenest eyes❤
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
In fact, it is a great detail that she is called "Jane Doe", since unidentified corpses are called "Jane Doe" (Female) and "Jhon Doe" (Man)
@@lareselcorrobarrutia6773 yeah, thats what being referenced in the song when she sings "just john and me"
@@con2553 Yep
If she was decapitated, how'd she come back to life?
@@ishouldreallychangemyname948 the guy running the afterlife puts her back in time to right before the accident and she just. doesn’t die this time.
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
I love this interpretation so much omg
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
YES! It's gorgeous. Instead of being tragic, it's way more angry. She puts her own spin on it, which is great.
Holy crap YES
I thought that too!
Same
Do you know where I can find the original?
Fun Fact: the Japanese version of Jane Doe is Yamada Hanako, with Yamada Taro being the male equivalent.
Uh ok that's nice!
Is that why they chose the name Taro Yamada as Yandere simulator’s senpai?
@@ChoccoMint0 idk maybe
omg-
hanako the bathroom ghost
Brazilian version would be Fulana/Fulano de Tal
the original depicts jane with a creepy haunted doll feel, like a soul trapped in a body it doesnt control. this cover sounds more like someone who has lost their memory and is scared and angry. I love it
My toxic trait is thinking I can do this
You literally hit it out of the park once more, this was hauntingly beautiful
My toxic trait is thinking I can do this too. And then I actually try and it doesn’t work, but still!
When I sing this and phantom in the shower I’m literally just screaming💀
Same my alto ass could never
Same. I just can't get the two highest notes without sounding like a dying bird
Lol I tried doing this and I'm just a bass 😅
I’m uncultured and don’t know anything about this song but your voice is stunning and so gorgeous
It's from the musical "Ride the cyclone". You should def check it out, it's awesome
@@marianitamr3751 thank you 😊
@@emberwoodruff9698 i think it got taken down
You can also try rollercoaster slime or cyclone slime. Those might yield results too lol
the musical keeps getting taken down from yt but im trying to get it up again on my channel if you want it
Someone out there who wants to scream "WHY LORD!" AT the top of your lungs at 2 am with me?
Let's go
Yeah
Me
Yes.
YASSS DOING IT RN
I grew obsessed this song over the past few days and Anna must have known?
As always, this is beautiful! “Oh Saint Peter” hurt my heart- it sounded like a final beg.
You have so much control over your voice, it’s beautiful, haunting and never ceases to impress!
yes I am secretly hooked up to everyone’s brain that’s how I choose songs to sing obviously
@@annapantsu
This explains so much 😶
@@annapantsu so that's how you knew I wanted a W.I.T.C.H cover. Oh yeah and day 5 of asking PLEASE DO A COVER OF BURN FOR YOU (bridgeton musical)
@@annapantsu I KNEW IT!
@@annapantsu wait this is new information? i thought everyone knew this anna
Anything with completely black eyes scares me, let alone Anna’s enchanting, scary voice perfectly fitting any ballad. Well done Anna this song certainly sets the halloween mood.
Maybe you don't know where the black eyes come from (if you do, don't bother read what's following, I'm gonna explain the context of the show)
This song is from the musical theater "Ride the Cyclone". Six teens die during a ride in a roller coaster. They end up in the afterlife, with Karnak, a magical creature, that propose them to bring one of them back in life. This character has been decapitated in the accident, and no one found her head. She remains unidentified, and names Jane Doe, as all unidentified female corpses. Even she, in the afterlife, has no idea who she was. She is wearing a doll's head, I don't know exactly why. To be less scary ? To simply talk, hear and see ?
This song is her attempt to prove the other teens SHE deserved to go back to life (she's not selfish, they all have their song). She is lamentating about the pain of not having memories, and not being able to peacefully go to the afterlife, and to be stuck with "John" (Doe. Male corpses)
@@rosae_rosae_rosa ooo woww i never heard of this show before but i found the music through Anna’s cover. Thanks for filling me in
Little fun fact for you! This song is in fact not a ballad, but a lament! Just like how Noel's lament is not a lament, but a Ballad! It's a little reference to one of the other songs, though i don't remember exactly what the character said, it was something along the lines of "singing what they wish to be." This musical is.. very deep
Haven't heard the musical, but for some reason this song made me think of all the missing and murdered women who's names have been forgotten and now I'm sobbing wondering if that's how they felt. Sorry for sharing
Tbh it's not that fee fetched. In the musical Jane is a corpse they found in the accident that since it didn't have a head,no one recognized the body and that no one remember an extra member in the choir she remained unnamed and thus they gave her the name Jane Doe. There's a theory that says that she was murdered by a foster father but it takes into account another musical by the same people and it's not confirmed as true
@@natsukifan8736 I think she was killed by a roller coaster incident. (Atleast that’s what someone said
@@mrkid2451 yeah but some say she was out there at the last moment without documentation and with a fake uniform (that's why nobody knew her even though everyone knows everyone in the town this takes place, because she just came to live there) so when she would die no one would know it
@@mrkid2451 The other kids were. But she remains a mystery, as no one remembers her, that it is in life or afterlife. To understand better, you should watch the show
damn. that seriously does make me feel depressed thinking about it
its hard enough for a soprano do to hit the notes through 3:27, let alone an alto voice! props to you ma’am
Yeah, my voice is very weak in my mid range, actually :,)
I used this recording to try and hit the D6 (the high note) and it took me a few days to hit it at the same time Anna did.
Agreed! I am always very impressed with her vocal ability
contralto exist you know
@@monkeyheathcliff59shhhhhshshhhhhhhshhhhshshhhhhh it’s fun and Anna did good, let people enjoy things.
Is it just me or would she also do an amazing cover of What The World Needs
Yes
yes
YESSSS as well as Noel's Lament and Talia!
I would love to hear her sing Sugar Cloud!
She woul!!! I also think she'd do amazing at Space Age Bachelor Man tbh!
I love how you conveyed Jane’s anger in the second part! The emotion was raw and all around amazing! I can’t wait to see if you do more covers from Ride the Cyclone
Yes please do what the world needs!!
losing my mind, this is so good the chorus/backing vocals are so crunchy in the best way
Miss Justine :DD !!
Screaming, crying, throwing down, riding a cyclone, ballading, Jane Doe-ing, rolling down the mountains, Tricking and Treating, harmonizing with myself, screeching in my own dialect of Soprano, adding this to my playlist of music I will play anywhere, you get the idea
LAMOO I love this comment
So relatable
This song is INSANELY difficult to sing, all of the chromatic scales, high notes, change of styles and you nailed it!
I was singing and dancing to this in my room as I was perfectly immersed in the story because of anna's bone-chilling performance.
Now my parents are convinced I'm possessed :) gg
So that's why your likes is 222 bc 3 x 222 is 666 and I find 3 cursed bc nothing good happens with 3 for me
I prefrom this song in my room alot somtimes it does look like I'm possessed 😭😭
@@PxtchiMxmo So that's why your likes is 2 bc 333 x 2 is 666 and I find 6 cursed bc nothing good happens with 6 for me
Your cover is so beautiful! I'm so glad to see Ride the Cyclone finally getting the recognition it deserves
i love this musical so much im stoked
I feel like its starting to gain ground, i only just heard about it a few months ago. now its popping up more and more.
SAME!! when it started trending i wasso happu
@lennov oof
Literally i swear every time I start getting into something it becomes popular somewhere lmao but RTC needs this
Ever since I've heard this song and the ballad of Sara Berry I've been actively looking for song ballads they are absolute MASTERPIECES
Drop some refs my dude I've been wanting some more too
@@lorendaemon7945 yes please, i would love to know more too
@@lorendaemon7945 yes pls some more references
Have you heard the ballad of hamantha?
Omg YESS love that song to death
Holy crap, I never heard of this musical or song but this has got to be one of the most haunting, somber and strangely beautiful songs I've heard, it's especially haunting with the fact that the name Jane Doe (as well as John Doe) are placeholder names for corpses who can't be identified
Also those high notes *chefs kiss*
It’s from Ride The Cyclone, which is about 6 teens who died in a roller coaster accident. One of them is Jane Doe, who lost her head and the only person who knew who she was died shortly after them. The plot of the show is the teens trying to decide which one of them gets to go back to life. It’s an amazing show, highly recommend tracking down a copy (there’s a few on RUclips) and giving the soundtrack a listen.
Holy cow,Anna. You outdid yourself as always. I never thought a cover of ballad of Jane doe could sound more angelic than the original
edit:damn why is it controversial for me to enjoy a cover more than the original
As always 👍👍
nobody beats the original 👎🏽👎🏽
@@ztarpjs i mean I love the original is great but this is amazing as well
@@Axelismeh honestly i kinda agree with the french mole man. Anna is an amazing singer and has proven it again in this cover, but nothing beats the original.
@@ztarpjs
It kinda sounds better than the original
You absolutely *killed* those high notes, Anna!! Even as a soprano I have a tough time hitting all the ones in this song but you did real good. Also absolutely adore this song, so glad to hear you sing it after I've been imagining it for weeks
Someone wrote that the high notes imply that Jane's screams as she was decapitated by the roller coaster (which is true).
I think that those ahs that go from high to low is the actual action of her beheading. Screaming before her voice dies away. Also, love the song
I've heard it said that the original song didn't call for Jane to sing the descending notes, only for the piano to play them. But the actress sang them anyway one day, and the director loved it so much that they changed it to be sung that way. I'm so glad they did it this way!
Anna. Dude. WHAT IS YOUR VOCAL RANGE?? You’ve gone down into lower tenor range before, and you’re singing this soprano song beautifully. How do you exist???! I think only gods can sing like this!
Like the original singer of this song, she has no limit
Well as Anna herself has said... it's tough to be a god
i belive the vocal range would be in the mezzo range
I was listening to this song during a downpour, and as soon as I got to the "why Lord?" I heard thunder, WHAT A PERFECT TIMING
I would absolutely love to see Anna do a cover of Noel's lament. I also very much loved this cover it was hauntingly beautiful!
I agree she'd kill Noel's lament
@@everythingz888 oh most definitely!
Omg YESSSS!!!
I’m just imagining her voice for the priest and it’s gold
AGREED 100%
This has to be one of the best covers of the ballad of Jane doe I really liked how apparent her anger was in the second part
I've never heard of this song or the musical it's from, but I knew just from the title that this was going to be a haunting and gut-wrenching song. You (and the original writers) certainly did not fail to execute on that expectation. Amazing work!
I super recommend it it’s called ride the cyclone and is fully of cleverly written and wonderfully sung songs like this. It’s been a show since the 2010s but I’m so happy it’s finally getting it’s laurels now
I’d recommend watching the musical! The base plot is about 6 teenagers who are in a choir together getting killed in a rollercoaster accident. It’s absolutely haunting at parts and hilarious at others (This Song Is Awesome).
nobody asked but its from a musical called ride the cyclone and the person whos singing was beheaded in a rollercoaster accident, but her head was never found, so the coroner declared her a "jane doe" aka the term for a female with an unknown identity. This song is her in the afterlife singing about her knowing nothing about her life or past.
“I’ve got no celebration”
Omg is this why Ocean wanted to throw her a birthday party?🥹
omg im in tears 😭
0:48 she’s going up the coaster, reaches the top, goes off the rails, crashes down, wakes up as jane doe
I'm so glad Anna decided this song was worth doing another 5 minute cover for! I know she definitely wasn't planning on doing another one after "All You Wanna Do" so I am eternally grateful for this. "The Ballad of Jane Doe" is easily my favorite song from Ride the Cyclone and it fits Anna's voice so well! Thank you so much Anna for taking the time to bring us this absolute masterpiece this October, I'll be listening to it for like a month straight!
OH MY GOD YESSSSSS!!! I WAS HOPING FOR THIS OH MY GOODNESS!!! With this amazing cover from an amazing cover artist I really hope more people will look into the musical and the fandom will grow! Thank you Anna :DDD
I would love to hear Anna sing Noel’s Lament she would knock it out the park
@@Brutus_94 OH ABSOLUTELY IT WOULD FIT SO WELL WITH HER VOICE
@ Princess Brave I KNOW RIGHT
Literally watched it because of this cover. So there's at least 1 person!
When I first saw the community post, like I said I was ecstatic, AND YOU LITERALLY WENT PAST MY EXPECTATIONS AND DID SOMETHING EVEN MORE WONDERFUL WITH MY FAVORITE SONG! I'M SO HAPPY, THIS COVER WILL NOW BE PLAYED ON LOOP UNTIL THE END OF TIME
I like this one better. Everyone has felt the feelings of getting close to something but completely missing it. And the rage and frustration that comes with this. Jane sounding upset is just this but to a greater extent. I like to imagine that in this version of Jane, after hearing everyone’s desires and wishes and life’s, she longs to be part of it as well, but instead of feeling hopeless, she feels human rage.
This cover actually moved me to tears, I don’t think I’ve ever heard anything so sad and beautiful. This was really good work, Anna.
Im so happy Ride The Cyclone became trending right after I got into it. This musical deservers way more appreciation and love ✨✨
Also, I love how you did the climax! You made Jane sound way angrier and more emontional than the original, such a good touch
This take on Jane doe sounds more like someone so close to having a life, their somber in their anger over not just loosing it but not getting to even mourn it.
Beautifully done 👏
Reminds me of Coraline 😊
Still have my fingers crossed for "My Frankenstein" 🤞
yes yes yes yes yes
it's from the musical Ride The Cyclone
your note in "forgot how it goes" is unreal, your voice is so perfect!
LETS GO! The moment i heard this song my first thought was. "I hope Anna does a cover of this"
YESS! I'm obsessed with this song and love your voice, thank you for covering thisss!
edit: OMG THE "and im askin' why lord" ITS JUST 😍 I LOVE YOUR VOICE SO MUCH
Some might say we're released
Pushing daisies, deceased
But we all know the worms must be fed
There's just one lingering fear
Oh my soul, is it here?
Or is it rotting somewhere with my head?
Oh my soul oh my soul
Oh my soul oh my soul
Ooh ooh
Ahh ahh ah
Oh no soul, and no name
And no story, what a shame
Cruel existence was only a sham?
Oh Saint Peter, let me in!
You must know where I've been
Won't you tell me at last who I am?
Who I am who I am
Who I am who I am
Ooh ooh
Ahh ahh ah
And from the ground, beneath my feet
I hear the anguish of the street
A choir never complete
And like an old forgotten tune
A song that no one knows forgot how it goes
Just john and me forever eternally, Jane Doe
And I'm askin' why lord
If this is how I die, lord
Why be left with no family and no friends?
Ooh
I've got no celebration
Just this consolation
Time eats all his children in the end
Ahhh
A melody floats through the air
When silence falls, does no one care?
Does anyone care?
Another sad, forgotten tune
Another song that no one knows
So that's how it goes! Just john and me
Forever eternally, Jane Doe
And she's asking "why, lord?"
Why, oh why, oh why, oh why?
"This is no way to die, lord!"
No one to sing, no one to sigh
Now that all is said and done
Isn't there anyone to tell me who I am?
No singing songs of celebration
(Ah ah ah ah) just this sorry speculation
(Aah ahh)
Like john I'll be eternally
A forgotten name, some lost refrain
Just "Jane" jane
Doe!
A melody floats through the air
When silence falls, does no one care? Jane
Doe
I really like how you insert your style to all the songs you do. Just listened to the original and your version sounds angrier while the other one feels more lost and sad. It’s such a nice touch, please don’t listen to the people hoping for a copy paste since they can just listen to the original.
Calming and creepy!
I like it! Stellar performance as always, especially for spooky month!
Oh. My. God. This is stunning!!! I mean, holy shit the range, the strength, the MIX VOICE PART!! You’re one of the first cover artists I ever heard on RUclips and Ive never been happier it was you. God damn
Actual masterpiece, I can hear how technically challenging this is - mad respect
Hi Lydia!😊🌼
I need to hear you sing Noel’s Lament it would sound amazing
THIS IS SO STUNNING AND HAUNTING!!!
Jane can't remember anything, the moment her head left her body her memories went away along with it. No one can identify her body, her head somewhere, perhaps to be found in the future by some poor in the future.
Jane's story is so heartbreaking, but in the end, she was able to be brought back to life.
The absolute anger you give in that second verse is my addiction right now. God I love it so much
Anna, is a literal musical goddess. This is absolutely hauntingly beautiful and now I'm gonna go check out the original song.
I would suggest watching the video too it just makes it more impressive!
The anger you put in the line "and I'm asking why lord" is just perfect
Great cover!
I love the way that anna belts on the high notes instead of using head voice, the song sounds more angry as opposed to the sadness in the original
Anna this gave me absolute chills you never cease to make me cry with your voice of an angel ily
This song introduced my 2 yr old to opera. I was playing it in the car and he started singing along with the vocal runs! So I started playing some arias from operas and he started singing along with those, too. If he ever becomes a famous musician, I'll know whom to thank!
Jane is such a sickingly amazing character and her song is so jaw dropping. An amazing job!!
YOUR VOICE IS GIVING ME LIFEEE, YOU DID SUCH A GOOD JOB!
Ever since Ride the Cyclone rose in popularity I was HOPING you would cover this!! You killed it as expected! Would we possibly see you give a go at What the World Needs? I think your voice would really suit Ocean!
I’ve been blasting ride the cyclone lately! How do you always know what I’m listening to? Would love to hear more covers from this soundtrack, Noel’s lament and what the world needs would be amazing, keep up the great work!
you perfectly captured both the haunting nature of Jane’s character and her bitterness in the second half of the song! this cover is so beautiful - I really love this musical, so you performing The Ballad is basically a dream come true! ❤️
IM SO GLAD THIS MUSICAL IS GETTING POPULAR THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE COVER
what the world needs is people like anna to keep it all spinning around 😤❤️
I am a little stupid and I have seen ride the cyclone and just remember Jane doe is what you call a female with no ID and that's why she continues to refer to John doe a man with no ID like I said this is probably a very well known detail but I am still proud of my self for putting it together
if you liked this i definitely recommend listening to or watching the whole show! it’s very entertaining, has a nice message, and in my opinion none of the songs are bad, in fact they’re all really good! one song i think would be perfect for you to cover is “what the world needs” from this show :D
Where can i see the full show?
@@kyyyl__ there’s a few bootlegs online if you look, or you could listen to the soundtrack through. i definitely recommend finding a bootleg though because the soundtrack makes zero sense without context
@@commicjester2015 ill try, thx!!
I discovered Ride the Cyclone a few months ago, and I fell in love with it and wished it was more known. It's so nice to see the musical getting more popular!
I used to be in ur server, I was called Victor/Vincent, and I always sung cavetown songs. Over time, jane doe became a HUGE comfort and a character I could use to project as how i felt in the world. I have always loved your work, listening to this as I type, the emotion and passion you put into this is outstanding. I always adore your work
The verse
"Time eats his children in the end"
refers to Cronos, the God of Time and a Titan, who was in fear of a prophecy of his child going to overthrow him, so when his wife gave birth to a child, he ate them asap-
I discovered the original through this and they are both SO GOOD!!! One is full of yearning and this sense of wandering, the other is sadness and frustration. Beautiful how a simple voice can change so much and yet be just as amazing
sometimes i feel like people dont know how hard it is to hit the notes you somehow do and your breathing is amazing plus you have a perfect range well done ^-^
im currently hyperfixating on ride the cyclone and can i just say im obsessed with this cover you've captured the beauty and melachonic feeling of the orginial perfectly kudos to you!!
@@OwlFreakslook up "ride the cyclone slime tutorial" on youtube (:
‘So its like drugs?’
‘Its better then drugs, Jeremy’
This has to be one of the hardest songs I’ve ever heard and it’s so haunting and tragic. Thank you Anna for blessing us this spooky season ❤️
I got to see this live and I was literally sitting in my seat thinking about how much I'd love you to cover this. It's even better than I imagined.
This in combination with a walk through an lonly path sorroundet by trees while it's about to rain and already hearing the thunder is just amazing
I love at 2:50 instead of sounding confused and hopeless like in the original she sounds more angry and confused, beautiful cover
WHAT WAS THAT?! Very rarely I find covers better than the originals but damn!
This one is definitely better, there I said it!
Great job 👏
This is awesome, you ate those notes whole
This song with your voice gives me goosebumps! Your voice is so angelic. Wonderful job, Anna! ❤
i remember watching the OG cast when this song came on. I got chills, but this cover managed to give me so much serotonin. you truly did a remarkable job with this. i love this musical so much, and now i will only be able to listen to this cover from now on. i love love love how your voice floats, almost reflecting how she floats in the song :))
This was so haunting and beautiful! Anna's range for singing is just incredible!
Something that I found out recently is that this song isn't a ballad, but a lament, as she is lamenting about her unknown identity and such. And Noels lament is actually a ballad, singing about he wants to be that f-ed up girl and what he dreams he was. Its really interesting to think about.
There are a lot of little details like that in the musical!! It’s so much more interesting once you notice/know them.
I was just listening to 'The Ballad of Jane Doe', and all of a sudden, I get the notification that Annapantsu covered 'The Ballad of Jane Doe'. Crazy how the universe works.
My red flag is thinking I could easily sing this
I RECENTLY JUST GOT INTO RIDE THE CYCLONE, AND I HAD NO CLUE ANNA COVERED THIS, SO I WAS GOING TO COMMENT ASKING HER TO COVER IT, AND I FOUND THIS I CANNOT EXPLAIN MY PURE JOY.
2:48 literal chills, i love this cover so much oh my god-
I'm usually at awe with any song you sing but I must say this song is a whole new level! The head voice? Perfect! The ability to sing a song like this and deliver it so well is just "mwah!" As a person who needs to practice her head voice, this is just so inspiring and amazing. Thank you for this.
ive had this in my head for so long, its like you're a mindreader!! you always make the BEST covers, I LOVE YOU!
I recently watched the slime tutorial
WHY DID I NEVER KNOW THIS EXISTED?! NOT ONLY IS THE SONG BEAUTIFUL, BUT THE SPINNING IS SO FUCKING COOL
Your voice is so beautiful.
This one brought tears to my eyes, This sad but beautiful piece. You were magnificent with how your voice changed its range so quickly and so high to so low.
This was one of the best covers i've heard, your voice is beautiful
Genuinely get blown away every time I come back to this cover...which is like every few days. Your voice is so powerful and full of emotion, you're incredi Anna 💖
the growl on “and” and “asking” in “and i’m asking why Lord?” was a paid actor…
time stamp: 2:49
I love it so much, I always felt the operatic tone of a song fits voices as rich as yours, and I believe this proves it!
I loooove how you made the music seem more like a carnival its so fun and creepy
love your covers as always!!!
The irony of a song needing so much "head voice" for a character that doesn't have a head :D
Absolutely amazing rendition!
