Curiosity got the better of me and I downloaded the song. It's entitled "Gloomy Sunday" otherwise known as the "Hungarian Suicide Song". I listened to it. The first time I heard it, to me it was kinda creepy. But then I started enjoying it. The original Hungarian one was creepier than the english one that I listened to. I'll post the english version in a while.
The composer of the song is a Hungarian named Reszo Seress. He composed the song in 1932. and since then, a lot of people have reported to have committed suicide after listening to it.
I listened to it a couple few times. It is true that the song is depressing as hell. I mean, if you listen to it immediately after a break up, I guess you would commit.
I think this urban legend is busted. But then again, I listened to this song earlier this year. I had it on repeat on my mp3 player, and I was depressed as f*ck then. I stopped listening to it when weird things started happening, like I would always wake up at exactly 3am and the Dogs would howl a terrifying howl. Like a pack of wolves. The kind of howl they do when they sense another being present. I once experienced, the same moment I opened my eyes, the dogs started howling. It made the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.
When my friends advised me to delete the song, I did so. and I stopped waking up at exactly 3am. and slowly, I felt better.
Listen to it yourself, maybe it'll have a weird something on you to. This is Billy Holiday's version. It's a lot less creepy. Listen to it... if you dare.
