Music is a form of expression that is more present in our day to day, nor does everyone like to read or have a disposition or interest to go to an exhibition, theater or even to admire a dance expectation, as well , I ask you if you know a single person who does not like to listen to music? I do not mean the fact of preference for a certain musical genre and I may be wrong, but people who do not like a single musical style and I do not know. The music speaks to itself, we all have our tendencies, to hear them at home, at parties etc ...
If there is something that music can transmit that something is called emotion no matter what the style or melody, and well, just that we are talking about but especially a music that received a serious accusation. Do you know the music responsible for the death of 100 people? I tell you, the song is famous. But it will even be possible for a song to be so powerful as well?
Well to finish once with so much expectation, I'm revealing, the song is called Gloomy Sunday, actually the original name of the song was another, because its composer was Hungarian by name Rezső Seress, the same lived in Paris for the decade Of the 30, and you know what happened at that time, the decade of the Great Depression, the bankruptcy of the New York Stock Exchange, the time when everything was heading for the 2nd World Gerra that began in 39.i
When Seress wrote the melancholy song, the lyrics spoke about that distressing feeling that the world lived, it talked about the feeling that the soldiers had and in the end it ended like a kind of prayer so that the world did not succumb in so much evil, after engraving, A personal friend of Seress, Laszlo Javori
wrote a new
Letter for the song in memory of his girlfriend. According to the story Javor had recently lost a relationship and was still sad and astonished by the whole situation, the letter now spoke of a man with deep suffering who lost the woman he loved and hoped to find in death, suicide the way out For that problem, he hoped to find the person he loved so much on another plane. Did you understand the weight that music carries? The music was a trigger of a great number of suicides in Hungary to the point that it was prohibited by the authorities, because according to they say they took the life 17 people leaving like note the letter of the song. The success of the song made it arrive in the United States, perhaps already supported by the marketing that surrounded it, since arriving in the United States the song was versioned in more than 80 occasions. Billie Holliday's version
Was the one that more successes I harvest and helped to maintain the myth because, supposedly, it continued with the power to hypnotize the afflicted lovers who after hearing it did not hesitate to take the life. It is said that in the United States, music was banned, but that fact is not proven as suicides in America, time passed and music was losing popularity until it became fashionable again when Seress committed suicide in Budapest throwing himself The window of the building.
