[EllenRebecca3]

Whoa, this is gloomiest version of this song! :-D

[tehmexicangeek]

Saw them live once. It was astounding

[MyuNekoi]

Fuck, man, I adore Kronos Quartet and Gloomy Sunday. I feel like such a lucky human being right now. xD

[HURTSsetter]

Wonderful.. So wonderful.. <3

[Extraterrestrialize]

I don't understand how some people don't like or appreciate this music... It's beautiful, pure emotion.

[corocotttta]

precioso...

[lebannerfan65]

2:34-2:35 is profoundly beautiful

[irw47]

[Snsuzele]

hmm, that music is really make you to suicide? i don't think so, that miusic really make you saaaad, and boooored to live, againis here no love no peoples understand what is the love.

[AyumuVanguard]

I clicked on this just because the title was relevant and I'm listening to a bunch of music like this again.

@MyMerryMelodies isn't this classical music? I mean, it's by Kronos Quartet. I think this counts as modern classical music...

[shvedr06]

nice sound to die and film for sorrow.

[MawnstrXnXurXClawset]

really 2 people dislike this. Some people are deaf.

[BlazzingSaber]

@MawnstrXnXurXClawset They died.

[OrganicThumb420]

may they rest in peace

[hunorita]

This piece by Rezső Seress is at its best when played on violin. Truly an outstanding performance.

Szomorú vasárnap száz fehér virággal ... sir a hegedű és sirok én is.

[TheAddictofMusic]

@hunorita Have you heard it when Emilie Autumn does it?

[IlGattonero13]

Exquisite. And it keeps the flavor of the Hungarian original. Probably my favorite version.

[timephonic]

today is sunday and its gloomy here

[n0thank7]

I've never found this song to be profoundly sad. This is probably the saddest version I've heard, but I still think it's too much hype. Probably just a matter of personal taste.

[MrGregcore]

can anyone tell me what genre this music is? Like the soundtrack of requiem for a dream, i believe the song is called lux aeterna? i love it but i don't know how to find this music

[Scaltt]

I find it to be a nice day outside when its gloomy. Im sorry Im not like everyone else who likes bright days and such, i do also. But I like this...

[atemlos2585]

Kronos Quartet, gods among violinists.

[Enaguiss]

seran mi pieza perfecta para morir...se siente!!!

[chicoandnibbles]

You bastards,

You beautiful bastards...

[agutxi]

Lydia Lunch best cover ever of this song.......

[xIndigoDy3]

I love the photos, and the music. I give it a five star rating. :]

[latiat1234]

so sad and beautiful :(

[weisnerchild409]

what key is this in?

[Bottledcan]

@weisnerchild409

if I had to guess,

D minor.

[atemlos2585]

@weisnerchild409

c-moll perhaps?

[Bottledcan]

30 thousand views? Hm. Makes you wonder if anyone offed themselves to this video.

[MagnusFogg]

@Bottledcan

...one of the views is yours, right ?...is there something wrong with this video ?...

[demeve1]

ez a legszebb verzió szerintem

[crocfme]

Thankyou, and goodbye....

[XXXJohnSabbathXXX]

Ethereal with a sombre presence ov the Past

[edliedragon666]

I love gothic doom style sounds it is very beautiful.

[Kezzkei]

Dying Beauty....

[11011011011100110]

Sokan nem tudják, hogy ez egy Magyar szerzemény. Egyetlen értékünk amely meghódította a világot. Egyébként én is 81- es vagyok. :) HAL

[Czeppelin]

Azért Lugosi Béláról se feledkezzünk meg. :D Ő is meghódította a világot.

[mortel0]

azért akad ott még egysmás ami érték.

[moominpic]

wonderful

[0MarciaAlexandria0]

Dont you just love Gloom and Doom?

Just kidding.

[DarkSkies132]

love it i enjoy it

[0MarciaAlexandria0]

thats great.

[yorkshireguese]

WOW!!! another version of this song that i have not until now heard, surprising as i am a kronos fan. i'm collecting all the good versions of this song..alot more than i thought, might be becoming a bit of an obsession. this version is definitely one of the best, strings have a way of expressing the emotional qualities of the song so well, especially when played to such a high standard. thanks for posting this graylady.

[ToneDeathStephens]

I've just posted a Gloomy Sunday vid myself, in case you're interested.

[54spiritedwill54]

so wonderful....

[buetforasif]

i like the instrumental version much better, it sounded/appeared so beautiful in the film "Schindler's List".

[DarkSkies132]

at what part of the movie would you say it played?

[buetforasif]

at the beginning of the movie where Schindler attends the party thrown by SS personnel.

[MyMerryMelodies]

@buetforasif me too. i thought it was a classical piece like by beethoven or something until just right now.

[odiousoddity]

@buetforasif this isn't instrumental??

[Foxglurves]

@buetforasif Really? I didn't notice it there... In which scene?

[buetforasif]

@Foxglurves at the beginning of the film, when Mr. Schindler attends a party full of SS officers

[buetforasif]

@buetforasif correction: before Mr. Schindler attends the party, it's played on the radio. Starts around 3:04 in the film.

[Foxglurves]

@buetforasif Gosh, it's been so long since I last saw the film. I shall keep an ear out for it next time I watch it though.

[HierophantAries]

Beautiful....

[ahnomnomnom]

no other word to describe it....

beautiful indeed.
