I've never bought the fact that this song was aboutr Jainism. it seems to me that it's really about his ex-wife Jean. As far as I know, it was during Black Letter Days and Devil's Workshop, that they were parting, and if you look at the lyrics it doesn't seem plausible that it's about a religion.

e.g.
I've been so blue
Sleeping till noon, darling
Watching cartoons
But I could not ease the pain
I hear the phone line
And I hope that isn't you

Jane, she was my only love
Jane, and though our love is done
You are the only one
Yeah that's just what you are

What do you guys think?

Oh, wait, no, Billy Radcliffe and Jane TQOL together are really about Billie Jean. Listen again to Everything is New.

Billy Radcliffe is about Billy Idol IMMO (In My Misguided Opinion).

Yeah, like "Czar" also being about Boris Yeltsin. ;-)

maybe Jane, the Queen of Love is about both. You know multiple meanings.

no, supposedly both of these songs are about Jainism. Check out the discopedia for further info.

I think the song you are referring to is JAINA BLUES ~ from SMYT.

I never understood the connection between this song and Jainism apart from a phonetic one.
