So, I was on YouTube listening to Emilie Autumn songs when I come across her cover of "Gloomy Sunday". I listened to it and then I went to find the original. I found out that the song has an urban legend connected to the original and apparently it is connected to many suicides. The composer committed suicide, his wife committed suicide, and a producer of Billie Holiday's version committed suicide just to name a few. So, it being night and me being a p***y, I stop my search for the original and settle for the Sarah Brightman version. A really sad song with a freaky legend surrounding it. Here is the Wiki page about it:

So, has anyone heard of this before?

Fun Fact: I listened to the Emilie Autumn version after listening to her song "The Art of Suicide".

That's kinda creepy.... I like Emilie Autumn... hopefully I don't accidentally run into that song and become overwhelmed by this suicide chain...

Those urban legends are fun.

Yeah, I heard about that legend. Never heard the song, apparently.

Interesting, Haven't heard of it before.


Good song, I was a little disappointed though, I was expecting something more sad than that. It's not any more depressive than other songs I've heard.

I thought it was about the legend, but that he found it through that artist.

It is, and I mentioned a few artists in my original post (Emilie Autumn, Sarah Brightman, Billie Holiday, and the original artist although I didn't refer to him be name), but I didn't want to start an argument with Hollow.
