Fun fact for anyone who might not know! If you watch closely at the end of Dark I Know Well on deaf west, you can see someone running up the stairs in the background. That is Ernst, going to sign with the girls. In promotional photos from deaf west of this song, you can see him in the darker background too of a certain photo. This is because originally, Ernst was supposed to sing one of the parts in this song! (Time stamp: 12:18 )

He was originally supposed to sing Ilse’s part :). This is also the furthest he is from his voice for the whole show.

MY JUNK should at least be in the top 10, and how dare you to also let the "Word of my body but gay" out of top 10 lol

The DWSA version of Whispering having a mini reprise of Touch Me makes me like the song better tbh

That specific version of song of purple summer always gives me chills

My favorite song is Touch Me, but this list is overall not terribly far from mine. I would put The Mirror-Blue Night, All That's Known, and Totally F***** (sometimes youtube deletes my comments so I'm being safe) higher as well. DWSA Dark I Know Well especially is really powerful.

Also I think it's funny that in looking for Spring Awakening rankings the only ones I found were made by Starkid people

Ahh! Dont do sadness/blue wind appreciation

I honestly prefer the DWSA version of everything lol I love All thats known, but only in DWSA lol Also Totally F***ed at the end is the best with the hearing cast covering their mouths and the D/deaf cast bonding their arms together like in handcuffs Mama who bore me 99 seat DWSA is the best cause it combines the energies I could go on but I havent watched OBC so idk if my comparisons are valid

I don't know where I'd rank them, I know that unfortunately I'd put Dark I Know Well down the bottom near Word of Your Body. In an actual performance, it's great and an important song, but when I'm listening to the album I find myself skipping it. There's something about it that just makes me not care to listen to it. On the other side, I'd put Guilty Ones up in the top 5 probably. I just like how instead of dealing with solidified thoughts about something that is presently happening, it instead deals with looser, less connected thoughts and emotions about something that *has* happened, and also how Wendla and Melchior are coming to terms with what they've done. I think that it being in a Major key works, as while the song is very contemplative and thoughtful with its instrumentation, it's still upbeat enough to ease the audience into the second act before throwing them into the 2 punch combo of Don't Do Sadness/Blue Wind and Left Behind Wild card: There Once Was a Pirate would be near the bottom. It was cut and replaced with Guilty Ones, and unlike Guilty Ones it's in a minor key and also doesn't stick with the thoughts theming of most songs and instead talks about what is going to happen to Melchior and Wendla once people find out what they've done - be outcast from their community. In theory it could work but in practice it's shrouded by too much metaphor to really click. It's somehow made it into the revival that happened in London last year, so maybe they fixed it and decided that it was better than Guilty Ones? It's got some lovely harmonies in it though so look it up.
