It seems to be the version that they sample from in meme videos on YouTube and TikTok where they try to express a feeling of sadness either in honesty or ironically. Where they put the video in grayscale mode and put the part of this song over it that goes “all around me are familiar faces, worn out places” and so on.
They also use the song The Song of Silence by Simon & Garfunkel for this same purpose.

This latter one is the one that goes “hello darkness my old friend” and so on.
