Artist's Comments

Budapest, January 13.

Rezsoe Seres, whose dirge-like song hit, "Gloomy Sunday" was blamed for touching off a wave of suicides during the nineteen-thirties, has ended his own life as a suicide it was learned today.

Authorities disclosed today that Mr. Seres jumped from a window of his small apartment here last Sunday, shortly after his 69th birthday.

(..)

Mr. Seres complained that the success of "Gloomy Sunday" actually increased his unhappiness, because he knew he would never be able to write a second hit.

- New York Times, 1968

I know that song.
I've heard two versions: one sung by Billie Holiday and another by Artie Shaw and sung by Pauline Byrne. The Billie Holiday version contains an extra verse saying that it was all a dream. But I prefer the Artie Shaw version.

and Björk, you should listen, Björk has an own interpretation.... wonderful, fragile, broken. Great.

I don't know how to say, it's such a.. simple, wonderful portrait. But I don't find the right word :)
