Gloomy Sunday.

I found it! Asadar a existat! Va spuneam anterior de o melodie. 100% "mortala"....Suspance...suspance...
"Gloomy Sunday" sau "Szomorú Vasárnap" a lui Rezso Seress (music) si Laszlo Javor (lyrics)...I googled a lot.
"The hungaryan suicide song" scris in 1933 si dedicat unei foste iubite care s-a sinucis la scurt timp dupa ce a aparut melodia , a inceput sa atraga atentia prin 1936 cand 17 persoane s-au sinucis si au fost gasite cu versurile in mana sau ascultand melodia la gramofon. Povestea adevarata nu e chiar asa cum am auzit-o eu , Rezso a sarit totusi de pe o cladire din Budapesta prin 1968.
Am cautat melodia. Originala unii zic ca ar fi asta (instrumental).Nu stiu. Insa am gasit cele mai apropiate variante:
Billie Holiday (cea mai cunoscuta si apreciata versiune). Desi in limba engleza nu se pastreaza in totalitate versurile, aceasta melodie a dus la sute de sinucideri world wide (spun articolele).Si ele suna cam asa:

Sunday is gloomy, my hours are slumberless.
Dearest, the shadows I live with are numberless.
Little white flowers will never awaken you,
Not where the black coach of sorrow has taken you.
Angels have no thought of ever returning you.
Would they be angry if I thought of joining you?
Gloomy Sunday.

Gloomy is Sunday; with shadows I spend it all.
My heart and I have decided to end it all.
Soon there'll be candles and prayers that are sad, I know.
Death is no dream, for in death I'm caressing you.
With the last breath of my soul I'll be blessing you.
Gloomy Sunday.
O traducere direct din maghiara a versurilor originale laolalta cu o serie de date ce par mai aproape de adevar gasiti aici.
Alte variante care mi-au placut sunt: mult preferata mea Bjork (o aveam chiar in calculator si habar n-aveam!) Sarah Britgman care exceleaza prin vocea visatoare cum ar trebui pt o astfel de melodie...Heather Nova in a chillin' style si Diamanda Galas cu o tonalitate mai grava.Si sa nu uit de varianta absolut excelenta si psihotica asa cum imi place mie de la Venetian Snares - Öngyilkos Vasárnap. Enjoy!
Chiar si asa, tot nu m-a cuprins dorintza sa sar de la balcon :))) (oricum stau numa la etaju unu).
Aici va pun un link catre legenda la unu din site-urile gasite. Feel free to google.
Harm none.
