  • Suicide means one less person breathin MY air so all of u who want to kill yourselves please do so :)

  • @dieselace1 your disgusting..you should be the one killing yourself cause we dont need people like you in this world.. ppl like you is why this world is so corrupt.. hopefully u'll be six feet under real soon cuz u dont deservee life yourself u piece of shit..

  • @dieselace1 then please do that first as u be the rold model to save the world :)

  • 少し厳しいマギー、私はちょうど彼の顔 - すべての人々 を殺す法案参照を得ないの損傷と、空の内部です。

  • @davi1629 I hope you took the rat poison and end a sad useless life.

  • Damn that girl had a set of lungs. Only the ravages of disease kept her from a monstrous career, and she HAD a pretty good career.

  • I have ....the urge....to top myself

  • if you watch the karen carpenter story you willsee the actress who plays her sing it.

    this version is better than skeeters and agnetha's

  • @davi1629

    Why do the mice keep on dieing..

    Why do thjey s,mell sooo baddddd

    cos i killed them

    With ratttt poison...

    There life ended when i found the poison...

  • this might sound rly weird but i heard this song on the movie girl interupted and its the song daisy kills herself to but i rly like the song :s

  • nice song

  • Karen Carpenter has (had) a slightly deep voice- so it adds a different dimension than Skeeter. Not better- just different.

    Also check out Johnny Angel by Karen Carpenter- again much different but not necessarilly better than Shelley Fab version

  • Great songwriting no matter how you slice and dice it! I'm a dumb@ss metalhead and I love the Carpenters!!

  • it's just an old crazy feeling but is it the end of the world

  • Listen...the end of the world is amazing...

  • This song is so beautiful. I just couldn't stop listening to it.

  • poorly made

  • i love karen carpenter i really do and yes she does sing this brilliant but i think skeeter davis owns it her voice totally suits this song sorry thats how i feel :D

    

  • @lollyb27 I feel somewhat the same myself. I prefer Skeeter's version over Karen's (as much as I love her singing) but even still I have to give Karen props for doing it cause this song actually pays homage to Skeeter. See, one of the reasons Richard got Karen into singing with him and his original trio was cause Karen used to sing this song around the house so much as a kid. =)

  • cant forget this coz its the end of the world

  • This is a wonderful cover version of this song. So sad.

  • i miss her voice

  • its maybe cuz- she is the best singer eva! i don't feel skeeter davis sang as good as this.

  • my favorite female vocalist ever but skeeter owns this song.... in my opinion

  • @michaelflorida56 I think Lena Zavaroni owns it... in my opinion x

  • @goldiedawn17 i just listened to her version. she's horrible! omg!

  • @No1KCfan6 Ha ha...she's actually dead now...eating disorder...x

  • @goldiedawn17 oh, yah, that's hilarious. dumbass.

  • @No1KCfan6 I was laughing at your ignorance toots...and only a dumbass would leave a comment like your's and not check facts first...It's easy just google Lena Zavaroni and you will see she died from an eating disorder...x

  • @goldiedawn17 all i said was, "i just listened to her version. she's horrible! omg!" which is true. how is that being ignorant and not checking facts, doofus?

  • @No1KCfan6 Oh sorry toots but I think you have me confused...

    with someone who gives a fuck...x :)

  • @goldiedawn17 wow, that's a classy and intelligent response. obviously, you realize that i OWNED you with my last comment...HA HA! piss ant

  • Karen Carpenter sang everything better than anyone else.

  • Not yet!!!

  • lololol end of the world

  • It's takin' me to the verge of tears :"(

  • The ending is strangely abrupt. It sounds more like a rehearsal than a final cut. My CD is the same. Wonderful though, despite that.

  • Listening to this a day before the end of the world :P

  • God I love her voice. This song, and her voice, were made for eachother. Rainy Days & Mondays always gets me too, along with a handful more of their songs.

  • I think this is the best version of this song :) beautiful

  • Girl, Interrupted.

  • Karen had a wonderful voice. It's very sad that she died so young.

  • The Queen of Song nails another great hit! I've never heard this one before.

  • karne's voice breaks my heart..

  • karen's voice breaks my heart....i miss your voice.....

  • Karen's voice makes any song a wonder!

  • Zabiję się przy tej piosence....

  • this song really makes me cry

  • I like Skeeter Davis' version more, it just sounds more interesting.

  • why isnt there another karen carpenter in this world ?? , I completely adore her voice and performance, RIP

  • Great vocal enhanced by that haunting steel guitar. Just beautiful!!!

  • Its the best version of this song, though i think anyone's version will be better than Skeeter Davis version, gosh she is singing without any emotions like she don't understand the lyrics....

  • สำหรับผู้หญิงที่หลาย....สุนิสา (น้ำพุ)

  • i just love karen carpenter so much since i heard her songs when i was 4. now 10 years passed, but i still enjoy her songs a lot.

  • It's a great vocal, soured by the steel guitar.

  • My grandpa sings this around his house :)

  • This was on THE WALKING DEAD commercial :D

  • classic

  • Thumbs up if you heard this song in "Girl, Interrupted"

  • @TakajoMiyazaki Yes!! The suicide though was just so sad.. :((

  • Right I love that movie so good!

  • great music ...so touching ...i love karen...

  • As cheesy as it sounds i remeber a time that i felt this way

  • skeeter davis version is better

  • Yeah it's the end of the world now shut up and stop doing this crap

  • This song takes me back to my past memory.

    It really touches the bottom of my heart.

    It is one of my favorite song.

    I really really really love it so much.

    sincerely

    sawdo

  • Why does this song sound so happy, but make you feel sad?

  • I love this song. Though it makes me so very sad :C

  • has anyone else heard of the imelda may version of this song. just as beautiful. i love this song. very cheesy. its the end of the world. when you said good bye. aaaah.

  • Such a lovely "sad song!!!!

  • Best way to end Mad Men

  • Karen Carpenter sing's everything perfectly...

  • this bass line knocks good in the car,classic song!

  • I Dedicated this song to my Mr. Green Eyes....& I hope my Best Friend Queenjaneboleyn from Noesis LONDON UK She will do to look for him & then She tell me that " I Found your Mr. Green Eyes...." That words I'm waiting for my Best Friend on Chat...

  • LOVED THIS!!! THANKYOU Soooo Much,Karen Carpenter Could'nt Sing a Bum Note if she Tried....and i can relate to her illness...R.I.P Karen....

  • You now visualize an apocalyptic world after a nuclear fallout with this playing on a radio.

  • l love the voice ...karen

    RIP i love al the songs !

  • I prefer Brenda Lee version

  • Check out Tracy Huang's version of this song. It's VERY interesting.

  • @jkmb8899 i enjoyed it she is a good singer

  • @jkmb8899 ok.. im excited!

  • I agree The Carpenters did so much better on this cover. It is not easy to do better than the original singer. But they did a very awesome job and I cried while i listen to Karen Carpenters sang it.

  • memories...

  • The first time I heard this song, it was on Girl Interupted...I cried, cause it reminded me of my X... I <3 this song, and the movie :)

  • Karen, left us way too soon.  What an insanely gorgeous interpretation of Skeeter Davis's timeless tune. Thank you and RIP.

  • this is ooowsome... i have been heard this song way back 90's.. it reminds me a lot..

  • @ericcartman2080 this is waaaaaaaay older but mabee your refering to the movuie girl interrupted

  • it must've been good back during the

    1990s :)

  • @elementjazz 90's n this is waaaay older then that

  • Who did this song originally? I only remember the 1950's version.

  • Skeeter Davis :)

  • Thank you for telling me.

  • @fuckyeahhh no karren

  • She had a really beautiful haunting voice. I bet her speaking voice was just as good.

  • I samą piosenkę uwielbiam i Karen.

  • This song is so corny, but damn it hits the nail on the head.

  • @plangentmusic watch Girl Interrupted. it won't seem corny then, it will haunt you.

  • Awesome thank you for posting brings back memories of my childhood sweetheart.

  • I really love this.

    it's really heart moving..

    Thankyou for posting this

  • Saw them in concert long ago. On her last line she sang "it ended when you said..."

    The opening comic inserted a frog sound!

    Karen laughed and sang "Goodbye...."

  • wow they sing this better than skeeter davis

  • I definately agree with you much better

  • @GreatOldSongs i disagree.... not the raspy nice voice of skeeter!

  • @ramlinrose2 can't be more agree on that

  • @ramlinrose2 yeah.. you too.. you like..

  • im very sad after listening this. the other songs like yesterday once more and top of the world made me sad too, but this showed their whole talent to me
