[@satyendrandonibanerjee8682]

Cutting this out of the film makes absolutely no sense because it shows that Evan himself is a flawed person it shows the conviction for the wrongdoing he had done. It makes him more human than what the film does. It's very hard to even tell if he learns anything by the end of the film without this song, he tells the truth people stop talking to him but Jared still seems to be friends with him and Zoe seems to forgive him towards the end but again, it feels to cut and dry if they had added this song it would have showed the heavy weight of guilt that he might have felt for what he had done and how he himself has become the monster that he didn't want to be. Not to mention it's actually a really good song.

[@iiwxvyviibes2477]

This is my fave song. I’m quite disappointed with the movie.

[@KaysieRader]

That's the whole reason why I recorded the movie, I was so excited to hear the song in the movie but was so disappointed when I found out it wasn't included.. I'll still watch it tho

[@joshberninger8355]

Yea it’s good development and is one of my favorites from the musical so was very disappointed that it was cut.

[@amandacurtis7245]

This and anybody have a map. They did Evans mom wrong. 😢

[@MelancholyRequiem]

You know, I thought so too, but then I realized they had to cut it because there was no way anyone would tolerate Evan's character. "Well it's not my fault other people can [give me a life better than you, Mom" is maybe the most evil thing I've heard a character say to someone absolutely crushed and sobbing, and Evan is to blame for how his mother is feeling in the preamble to this song. It's like he killed a dog. There's no coming back from it.

[@ooofthedegenerate]

I think it’s very funny that the most replayed part of the video is Jared saying “fuck you evan, asshole”

[@MaggotfilledFlesh]

Lmao, that's actually really funny to think about.

[@Lucifermorningstar883]

It's a really funny part cause he sounds weird when he says it almost like he doesn't mean it I love how the actor had that little hint of a joke in his voice when he said it

[@yourstruly.hannah]

its cus we love jared here

[@shokocontane594]

If I have to guess, it's probably because of the mention of that line in the libretto. Ppl wanted to check again to make out the "helpless, heartbroken little kid" after reading that comment.

[@theaterkidem]

Fun fact: in the libretto for Dear Evan Hansen, the stage direction for Jared’s “fuck you” line is “(Like a helpless, heartbroken little kid):”

So you found a place where the grass is greener And you jumped the fence to the other side Is it good? Are they giving you a world I could never provide? Well I hope you're proud of your big decision Yeah, I hope it's all that you want and more Now you're free from the agonizing life you were living before And you say what you need to say So that you get to walk away It would kill you to have to stay trapped When you've got something new Well I'm sorry I had it rough And I'm sorry I'm not enough Thank God they rescued you So you got what you always wanted So you got your dream come true Good for you Good for you, you, you Got a taste of a life so perfect So you did what you had to do Good for you Good for you Does it cross your mind to be slightly sorry? Do you even care that you might be wrong? Was it fun? Well I hope you had a blast while you dragged me along And you say what you need to say And you play who you need to play And if somebody's in your way Crush them and leave them behind Well I guess if I'm not of use Go ahead, you can cut me loose Go ahead now, I won't mind I'll shut my mouth and I'll let you go Is that good for you? Would that be good for you, you, you? I'll just sit back while you run the show Is that good for you? Would that be good for you, you, you? All I need is some time to think But the boat is about to sink Can't erase what I wrote in ink Tell me how could you change the story? All the words that I can't take back Like a train coming off the track 'Cause the rails and my bones all crack I've got to find a way to Stop it, stop it! Just let me out! So you got what you always wanted So you got your dream come true Good for you Good for you, you, you Got a taste of a life so perfect Now you say that you're someone new Good for you Good for you Good for you Good for you

I don’t know for sure if this is true, but I heard the main reason they cut this song from the movie was because Julianne Moore couldn’t sing it well enough.

They could've found a way to make it worse. Part of me feels like the removed this song from the movie as a way to make Evan a more sympathetic character. That honestly makes zero sense considering that Evan is practically a sociopath

[@MaggotfilledFlesh]

I love this song when Evan finally get's everything put to him but Elena’s character always bothered me. She forced her way into becoming president and I think it's true of what Evan said. She thought she knew him only because she was once partners with him during their chemistry class. I truthfully don't feel Elena gotten betrayed I think she just regrets helping because of the stress Evan lies has caused her. This song has always been my favorite and it bums me out how it wasn't in the movie. The movie also missed it's chance in possibly making Alana’s character more inept. And the movie was bad-- I feel like I could've maybe enjoyed the movie if they gave Evan flaws and didn't try making him seem like a perfect person or a emotionally damaged baby. Also I wish they got a younger actor for his role too. . This song shown how truly fucked up Evan was for doing such things and lying about someone who wasn't all that good. Although he did help Conner's family it was all taken from them once Evan told the truth in Words Fail. Evan is a good realistic character filled with flaws - it felt like something that could happened, they shown in the song how his flaws negatively impacted what he done and how it wasn't an excuse while the movie only used Evan's flaws as an excuse, he barely even faced consequences. This is why the original musical will always be better than the movie and why I think this song was so perfect showing what the characters thought of his flaws and what he done.

Very hypocritical of Alanna to say Evan dragged her along. Umm, you inserted yourself into Evan's agenda. He didn't coerce or persuade you to join him. It was of your own will. Stop playing victim!
