[@wkwheezy]

4:40 "Knowing she'd never turn fifteen" This one line filled me with such sadness. I guess I've never thought of it like that..

[@celinaandrade4075]

Actually it was the day before her (his) last birthday

[@kcc999]

“A beautiful country where the sunflowers bloomed Where the castles were so high they touched the horizons Whose destiny was it To wear the queen’s jewelled crown, to sit on her elegant throne?” Once upon a time in a country far away Where a lot of crimes were committed every day There was a young lady, fourteen years of age Crowned as the Queen, dancing on history’s stage She bought her luxuries, spending without heed A servant with the same face coming to her every need Josephine’s the name of her royal steed She had everything one can ever want indeed We are short on money, but I want a diamond ring Squeeze out every penny from the peasants’ savings Anybody standing up against the queen’s demand Will be sent to the guillotine on command “Now, on your knees, peasant!” Dreadful rose of sin You bloom in dread alone Shining in scarlet sending chills to the bone Pathetic weeds growing on the soil around O wither and die without making a sound Our lady tyrant, she was in love you see With a fine young man who lived across the stormy seas Yet another woman, both very fair and wise Was the lucky one who caught the man’s eyes Her Highness soon was mad with jealousy Called out her right hand man with just one minor plea Very quietly she sipped on her tea “I want to hear the girl scream in agony.” Thus the little village hidden in the forest deep Burned in the night with the villagers asleep Not one single tear despite all the people’s cries Fell from our lady’s icy eyes “Oh my, it’s time for tea!” Dreadful rose of sin You bloom in dread alone Shining with malice sending chills to the bone Your beauty cannot ever be compared O but your venomous thorns are like a viper’s fangs bared The queen of evil must certainly be killed Out of the people’s hearts frustration spilt Leading the mob was a woman in red Her bloodred armor = the blood of the dead Anger and fury, built up over time Surrounded the country, counting all her wicked crimes All her majesty had for defence Were some soldiers old and tired from the previous wars’ torment The castle’s gates broken and the walls collapsed Servants and maids ran away, relieved perhaps Sweet and lovely queen of this country far away Was captured, to her dismay “You… ragged, unmannerly dogs!” Dreadful rose of sin You bloom in dread alone Shining in scarlet, in a sad, haunting tone Paradise is lost for the maiden of vice O it crumbled and shattered like brittle crisp ice Once upon a time in a country far away Where a lot of crimes were committed every day There was a young lady, fourteen years of age Crowned as the Queen, dancing on history’s stage Her death was scheduled at three in the afternoon When the great bells of the church would boom The person who used to be known as the queen Sat in her cell, knowing she’d never turn fifteen Finally, long awaited, the time had come The deafening chimes sounded a little bit glum The crowd showed not a sign of sympathy Grinning to the world, said “she” “Oh my, it’s time for tea!” Dreadful rose of sin You wilt in dread alone Shining in scarlet sending chills to the bone People today, they sing this song to their kin “Now that was the story of the lady of sin.”

[@oliviasantander6402]

Thank you for the lyrics!

[@annalise9011]

YOU ECHOED THE LYRICS FROM SERVANT OF EVIL! I LOVE THIS! YOU EVEN USED LEN'S VOICE FOR THE PARTS AFTER THEY SWITCHED PLACES!

[@Ennsings]

Bubble Bellarina thanks so much 😍😍😍 you noticed ☺️☺️

[@guacamolleee]

This is such an oldie but goodie. It's been years, but this rendition never fails to amaze me

[@ChibiUsaaaa]

My favorite lines were "I want to hear the girls scream in agony" And "Now that was the story of the lady of sin"

[@joshuathinker8546]

Am I the only one or s there anyone else that thinks this lady needs to go on American idol or some other simulate show. I mean how many people can take a song thats best in classical and still make it good as a jazz redub and even more so the song was originally in another language.

[@zofia-6136]

Yeah, she's so talented (?). Well, Her Higness' voice is the one who I love~

[@sistersofstories4442]

ikr

[@picklerardway5974]

Joshua Thinker IK but A KZbinr named "Froggie" made her own English cover. And it was really good. Both of them (this and froggie's) is Really good!

[@cathylockheart8996]

"I want to hear girl scream in agony" favorite line

[@namiip]

11 years, but copy and pasting lyrics here for easy access “A beautiful country where the sunflowers bloomed Where the castles were so high they touched the horizons Whose destiny was it To wear the queen’s jewelled crown, to sit on her elegant throne?” Once upon a time in a country far away Where a lot of crimes were committed every day There was a young lady, fourteen years of age Crowned as the Queen, dancing on history’s stage She bought her luxuries, spending without heed A servant with the same face coming to her every need Josephine’s the name of her royal steed She had everything one can ever want indeed We are short on money, but I want a diamond ring Squeeze out every penny from the peasants’ savings Anybody standing up against the queen’s demand Will be sent to the guillotine on command “Now, on your knees, peasant!” Dreadful rose of sin You bloom in dread alone Shining in scarlet sending chills to the bone Pathetic weeds growing on the soil around O wither and die without making a sound Our lady tyrant, she was in love you see With a fine young man who lived across the stormy seas Yet another woman, both very fair and wise Was the lucky one who caught the man’s eyes Her Highness soon was mad with jealousy Called out her right hand man with just one minor plea Very quietly she sipped on her tea “I want to hear the girl scream in agony.” Thus the little village hidden in the forest deep Burned in the night with the villagers asleep Not one single tear despite all the people’s cries Fell from our lady’s icy eyes “Oh my, it’s time for tea!” Dreadful rose of sin You bloom in dread alone Shining with malice sending chills to the bone Your beauty cannot ever be compared O but your venomous thorns are like a viper’s fangs bared The queen of evil must certainly be killed Out of the people’s hearts frustration spilt Leading the mob was a woman in red Her bloodred armor = the blood of the dead Anger and fury, built up over time Surrounded the country, counting all her wicked crimes All her majesty had for defence Were some soldiers old and tired from the previous wars’ torment The castle’s gates broken and the walls collapsed Servants and maids ran away, relieved perhaps Sweet and lovely queen of this country far away Was captured, to her dismay “You… ragged, unmannerly dogs!” Dreadful rose of sin You bloom in dread alone Shining in scarlet, in a sad, haunting tone Paradise is lost for the maiden of vice O it crumbled and shattered like brittle crisp ice Once upon a time in a country far away Where a lot of crimes were committed every day There was a young lady, fourteen years of age Crowned as the Queen, dancing on history’s stage Her death was scheduled at three in the afternoon When the great bells of the church would boom The person who used to be known as the queen Sat in her cell, knowing she’d never turn fifteen Finally, long awaited, the time had come The deafening chimes sounded a little bit glum The crowd showed not a sign of sympathy Grinning to the world, said “she” “Oh my, it’s time for tea!” Dreadful rose of sin You wilt in dread alone Shining in scarlet sending chills to the bone People today, they sing this song to their kin “Now that was the story of the lady of sin.”

[@natt_tenshi2707]

This is my favourite version of Daughter of evil. You sound so beautiful and you give the song such charm that its hard not to get lost while listening. Also if I may add, I freaking LOVE your accent, it and your amazing lyrics make the song sound very sophisticated and I especially love it when you'd say "Oh my, it's time for tea" That alone manages to sends chills down my spine every time :)

[@VampireBabysitter]

It’s 13 years old and I still keep coming back to my favorite cover

[@noct596]

Your voice reminded me of Alois Trancy (Don't ask why) and that fact made this cover even more better (Not that its bad its awesome)

[@LunciaxArtemisxNyc]

Their voice only sound similar in this song because of the tone

[@pewpew1649]

Me too

[@caramelldansen4352]

Rhyme I know right

[@vampirecalyx]

This is probably my favorite English cover of Aku no Musume! Great job! I love your voice!

[@myjessiesgirl]

..........😧......😍😍😍😍😍😍 WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE!!!! By far the BEST Version of the song ever, I mean the voice is so beautiful I'm falling for the person who sings this song...and I'm a girl! Lol

[@picklerardway5974]

myjessiesgirl Same!! :3

[@CandiedAppleSlices]

Your voice is so beautiful and mature, I really love it. It's very well suited to this version of the song as well. And these lyrics are probably the best English adaptation I have ever heard. They really tell the story. All in all, I'd love to see more covers from you, you're really, really good :)

[@AryThairyit]

This was NOT 10 years ago 😭 I-

[@abbycollins4820]

I love the style of this video, of the music and art. Also the alternate title is great.

[@alicebaskerville1267]

[@ckim5119]

[@BlackRedDragon7]

I love how you make the bits of dialogue! Very believable :)

[@vampirecalyx]

I really enjoyed listening to this cover. It's different from what I'm used to hearing and at first I'll admit I didn't like it but it really grew on me. It's very unique and you have such as lovely voice.

[@onlineresident2174]

This is was just so beautiful. You have such a lovely voice.

[@AnIc3ySw33tn3ss]

I have only one word to describe this: STUNNING. The lyrics were perfect, and you sing with such emotion, I was chilled to the bone - in a good way, that is ;)

[@kyannakitten]

i love how you made this your own with a more jazzy interpretation! i adore how unique it is! ^^

[@Kehnuff]

Definitely one of the best covers I've heard for this song. I'm absolutely in love with it!

[@Crashlinevas]

Wow... this thing is sumthin else... you really have that premium jazz voice for it which completes this piece.

[@bluekay1234]

This is so cool, I like how you remade it!

[@emilyvillamil]

I realized it was Allen's voice playing Rin's part showing that they switched places.

[@ZeroX003]

I dont know what it is but when you say 'Oh wither and die' you say that flawlessly. Great cover!

[@DollyDamned]

I love your cover, it is so epic and I love the jazz like spin on it. So diffrent and I can't spot playing it over and over :D

[@Tunafic]

Your singing is soo good! Very nice work!

[@tsubakiblossom]

You're so wonderful. No matter what genre you sing: ballad, jazz, classic, whatever... you're voice seem to suit it.

[@HungarianandSkillet]

This sounds so beautiful, your voice sounds superb! I love the jazz version~

[@xPlaidDreamsx]

I'm honestly surprised!! You're Len and Rin versions are so different and just perfect! Your voice is really flexible :D

[@rukiaino]

I love this version! You're an amazing singer. Also, you pick such nice versions to sing to, and they're usually uncommon. That's very nice. ^^

[@ChibiusaEmy]

Perfect work! I'm in love with it

[@onematty01]

I have been a fan of the Daughter of Evil series for a while now, and let me just say this is the best English version I have ever heard of Daughter of Evil. This, along with xzerulx91 tragically taken down version of Servant of Evil are truly magnificent. Thank you so much for this wonderful video and this wonderful dub of a fantastic song.

[@xxblazingKiLLjoYxx]

wow... i am always stunned by your voice! it's one of the most gorgeous voices i've ever heard. being a singer, i really look up to you!

[@zxxxnimxxxz]

wow your voice is really beautiful!

[@tyliwoodrow2774]

Anger and fury, built up over time Surrounded the country, counting all her wicked crimes All her majesty had for defence Were some soldiers old and tired from the previous wars’ torment The castle’s gates broken and the walls collapsed Servants and maids ran away, relieved perhaps Sweet and lovely queen of this country far away Was captured, to her dismay Dreadful rose of sin You bloom in dread alone Shining in scarlet, in a sad, haunting tone Paradise is lost for the maiden of vice O it crumbled and shattered like brittle crisp ice Once upon a time in a country far away Where a lot of crimes were committed every day There was a young lady, fourteen years of age Crowned as the Queen, dancing on history’s stage Her death was scheduled at three in the afternoon When the great bells of the church would boom The person who used to be known as the queen Sat in her cell, knowing she’d never turn fifteen

[@fantagecandi4136]

i love how you can make the deep voice, and it's not that croaky like mine

[@picklerardway5974]

Fantage Candi I can Do a Low voice that makes me sound like Gerard Way.. but I sound seductive like an incubus... Ugh.. BUT ALL DEM GIRLS THO.

[@MrDjCool14]

I find your voice very soothing :) I could just click on one of ur videos and my whole day would be brightened ^-^!!~

[@miyuchi12]

my gawd you are a genius and a very lovely singer ;]

[@tyliwoodrow2774]

Finally, long awaited, the time had come The deafening chimes sounded a little bit glum The crowd showed not a sign of sympathy Grinning to the world, said “she" “Oh my, it’s time for tea" Dreadful rose of sin You wilt in dread alone Shining in scarlet sending chills to the bone People today, they sing this song to their kin “Now that was the story of the lady of sin.”

[@TheDicloniusninja]

[@flowers884]

This is beautiful! You should totally put up a mp3!

[@bre-kunnikki-chan6398]

I forgot to tell you, I loved this! :P

[@luisp257]

Awsome!!

[@TitledRyan]

[@PsychoticRedhead09]

Amazing!~ :)

[@kendalfool8364]

+1 subscriber. you're voice is perfect for Jazz, good job :D

[@archetypalheart7572]

Fun Fact! The Servant Of Evil leitmotif plays at 2:44 and Regret Message at 5:29!

[@dylanhack1]

I'm liking this...

[@madamnekomeriil2715]

I think this may be my favorite fandub of this song!

[@Thebluedud]

Is there a place I can download this? This cover is my favorite version, and is running for favorite song.

[@cck5707]

I’ve never heard this version before, I wonder why it never showed up. Such a masterpiece

[@NezumiWayne]

OMG!!! Beautiful indeed!! You sound like a french person in this. Usually i don't find such singing talent in (this english version song) like you. :D When i first hear this, i was like *jaw drop open* Then when you say "You... ragged, unmannerly dogs!" , my jaw dropped open even wider. And i stay like that even for a few moment after the song end. Your Highness, truly does sounded just like a queen yourself. *Bows down* I'm not worthy of your presence.

[@raininess]

wow, that's amazing

[@stupiddog321]

Just beautiful! I like how you chose the Jazz Waltz version, and your voice is perfect for it. I don't know how but it sound a little.. English, like a real aristocrat. Then your voice goes a little opera in the chorus, which adds more majestic and over the top attitude like Rin has. A classy sounding, which is perfect.

[@user-lc7sp1hp3w]

I'm korean but I usually listen to lots of japnese music and lots of english covers of them, and I think this is the best one I ever heard XD!!

[@AnnieGurl99]

Oh my gosh! Yes! I noticed that too!

[@sonamy3]

crankin' it up today lmao

[@stikstakglak2006]

I think this is the best version :D

[@LenSassamine]

"The one known as the queen sat in her cell knowing she'd never turn 15"

[@Ennsings]

@bluekay1234 Thanks! I thought the old version was slightly over haha

[@RitsuKajitani]

Merry Christmas!

[@sonic5577]

Wow your a really good singer!

[@DeathCosplays]

This is the best version so far, to bad you don't have a download for it. It would be truly awesome since my friends and I are doing a video to this song.

[@greengale2]

haha~ Chills! Chills!!!

[@user-kh6nd6sv8w]

Excellent! And can the recording of this song? I liked it very much!!!

[@TheBlueberry5454]

awwww that's so sad thanks

[@HoneytheMienshao]

Oh my god.... If only this was on the radio.... Better yet, on iTunes.

[@glazedgreenflowers]

chilling

[@Kolohegirl]

Voice... Great :D

[@Ennsings]

I'm sorry I cannot provide the link for instrumental files here ): I'm sure you can easily find it on Google (?)

[@shadowwolfcat13]

This was...T.T Amazing!It brought tears to my eyes!It was sang from a true English woman! I could feel the chills of the previous eras go down my spine!This song just put me in a trance.Amazing voice!Amazing lyrics!Amazing song!

[@findmeinaplace]

this has to be the best dub ever!

[@Ennsings]

@Saluhtem Thanks for the recommendations :D I decided to keep things vague since that's the way the Japanese version did it, but yours is very nice as well ^^

[@Ennsings]

No problem! Please go on :)

[@picklerardway5974]

Imagine Gerard Way Singing this On Stage.. being The sassy fabulous Man he is..

[@Ennsings]

@Saluhtem No problem! Rin's version is the best LOL

[@CrimsonOnyx9]

This is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nuff.Said.
