Oh that's a different version than the one I know.

The one I know goes:

Oh, I once knew a man
He lived each day the same
Safe and sane and swell
And when they told me he died
I didn't cry
All I could say was, "how could they tell?"

I wonder if it's Broadway vs off-Broadway or something...

Edit: I found your version, it's the 1972 original Broadway cast recording. The 2013 revival is the one I know, and I think it's the more popular version, at least, it's the only one I knew existed.

Your version: https://youtu.be/n7UsfwetiLI
My version: https://youtu.be/LjqYqhq9xsk

Now that I've listened to both, I also think the 2013 revival version is more impressively sung.

Yeah. I like the lyrics for the 2013 one more but I think that most of the other songs are better in the 1972 one. War is a Science is especially good in the 1972 production.

I know Hadestown, Something Rotten, Beetlejuice, I've heard of &Juliet, I know Chicago but pretty much just the more popular songs, I know Wicked, Spring Awakening (my college actually did that one last year...I didn't audition cuz I wasn't comfortable performing all the content in there but it's a great show), Next to Normal, Heathers, Tick Tick Boom!, I now know Spies Are Forever (I listened to it. Not my favorite, but pretty good), I started listening to Bad Cinderella, I don't know Wonderland but just looking at the song titles it looks kinda similar to Alice By Heart, I know Bonnie and Clyde, I know Rent, I know Falsettos, I know Gentleman's Guide, I know Funny Girl, I don't know I Could Use A Drink, I know Mean Girls, I know at least one song from The Prom and need to listen to the rest, I know The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical a little bit, I do know Great Comet a bit but I didn't recognize it at first under that name I just always heard it as Great Comet, I know Urinetown, and I don't know Head Over Heels.

...you like the angsty/dark ones, huh? If you haven't listened to Bare: A Pop Opera, I definitely think you'd love that one.

Edit: how on earth do I not have Beetlejuice, Heathers, Mean Girls, Urinetown, Wicked, or Hadestown on there already wth
