'gloomy sunday' was written in 1933 by Reszo Seress. it was called the 'suicide song' - because the release of this music coincided with a spate of suicides in Hungary. the sheet music is still available to anyone who goes looking. also you can find it on youtube. there have been several versions of this song (billie holiday for one, but she was made to change the ending because it was 'too depressing'). in the end the original piece was banned because it was thought to be cursed. dare you listen to it? MWAH HA HA!
