Gloomy Sunday", also known as the "Hungarian Suicide Song", is a song composed by Hungarian pianist and composer Rezső Seress and published in 1933. The original lyrics were titled Vége a világnak (The world is ending) and were about despair caused by war, ending in a quiet prayer about people's sins. Poet László Jávor wrote his own lyrics to the song, titled Szomorú vasárnap (Sad Sunday), in which the protagonist wants to commit suicide following his lover's death. The latter lyrics ended up becoming more popular while the former were essentially forgotten. The song was first recorded in Hungarian by Pál Kalmár in 1935. "Gloomy Sunday" was first recorded in English by Hal Kemp in 1936, with lyrics by Sam M. Lewis, and was recorded the same year by Paul Robeson, with lyrics by Desmond Carter. It became well-known throughout much of the English-speaking world after the release of a version by Billie Holiday in 1941. Lewis's lyrics referred to suicide, and the record label described it as the "Hungarian Suicide Song". There is a recurring urban legend which claims that many people have committed suicide while listening to this song.

Nirvana's performance of "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" on MTV Unplugged. I listened to this song for the first time last night, as I had read that it has been regarded as one of the best live performances of all time. I'm inclined to agree, but I must admit, it really isn't easy listening to the song. You can just sense that Cobain intended for this to be one of his final performances.

The thing that really hit me was at 5:07. It gave me chills seeing that and it took me a few hours to get over it. It's both sad and disturbing. :(

I'm so into you - Ariana Grande

"Ghost Town" by The Specials.

It sounds quite Halloweenish.

"Ode to Billie Joe" by Bobbie Gentry (1968). A mysterious song that people wonder about to this day.

There was even a film made of the song back in 1976.

How about the beginning and towards the end of Michael Jackson's "Off The Wall"?

I always thought Rihanna Russian Roulette was eerie and kind of dark.
