* The entirety of Jane Doe's character. She lost her head in the accident, meaning she also lost her memories.

* ''The Jane Doe's entire character is nothing but tragic. Having lost her head in the accident, she has no memory of who she is. Her song, "The Ballad of Jane Doe'' Doe" is all about how Jane, and no one else there, nobody knows who she is.really is, not even herself. While the rest of the choir gets to "live on" after death by entering limbo, and eventually, the afterlife, the girl who Jane once was is completely ''gone''- no memory of her remaining.

** His monologue preceding his song reveals his mother was well aware he was gay, but told him to "tone it down." Whether out of homophobia or because [[ForYourOwnGood she was sincerely concerned for his safety]], it's still sad.
** He also reveals his favorite movie (and inspiration for his fantasy alter-ego) is ''Film/TheBlueAngel'', watching it dozens of times, particularly loving Creator/MarleneDietrich's role as Lola. Every year for Halloween, he wanted to dress up as Lola, but always chickened out and went as something more "acceptable" for a teen boy. For all his DeadpanSnarker ways, Noel was still hurt by the closed-mindedness of his hometown, and felt forced to dim his light to fit in. And now, he'll never get a chance to live the wild, bombastic life he always wanted.
