Gloomy Sunday Song: Whenever we are sad or happy, at a wedding or party, at any festival or celebration, the first thing we listen to is music. Everyone has different tastes in music; Some like old and quiet songs, while some like fast pop songs. But what if you feel like committing suicide after listening to a song? In 1933, a composer named Rzeszow Seres wrote a song called “Gloomy Sunday.”

Razo Seres wrote this song after his girlfriend left him, and the lyrics were so sad that everyone who heard it became very sad. It is said that this song was so heartbreaking that some people even committed suicide after listening to it. That is why it was named “Hungarian Suicide Song”.

100 people died because of Hollywood song

Initially many people refused to record “Gloomy Sunday”. However, this song was later recorded and released in 1935. After its release, the number of suicides in Hungary suddenly increased. In many cases, this song was found playing nearby, or was mentioned in their suicide notes. According to reports, this song had initially taken the lives of around 17 people. Later this number reached close to 100. The situation became so bad that the government had to ban the song in 1941.

Singer also gave his life

Almost 62 years later, in 2003, the ban on the song was lifted. But by then many lives had been lost. Rzeszow Seres’ girlfriend also committed suicide after listening to the song. Surprisingly, Rzeszow Seres chose Sunday, the day mentioned in the song, to die. Rzeszow Seres committed suicide in Budapest in January 1968. He survived by jumping from the window, but later committed suicide by strangulating himself with a wire in the hospital. It is said that the lyrics of this song were so sad that in them death was described as comfort and life as pain.

The film was released in Hungary and Germany in 1999.
