The background of historical rumors is 1933 (1932), Hungarian Rez Ceres; Seress( 1899— 1968) played fifth on a rainy Sunday after two weeks of lovelorn love.
Write this song in Paris. He is a short, wretched and humorous Jew. It is said that he works as a pianist in a restaurant in Budapest called Akácfa (meaning small pipe), but he can only play with his right hand, which is inconvenient. He is famous for Black Sunday. He tried to save his relationship with his girlfriend Loina, but her girlfriend committed suicide, leaving only a piece of paper with the words "szo moru vasárnap" (Black Sunday). Of course, after he became famous, many famous musicians went to see him. Later, a beautiful woman, Helen, divorced her rich officer husband and married him. He committed suicide by jumping off a building in Budapest on 1968. Now, it is one of the three forbidden songs. Note: 1. What you are hearing now is not the original sound. The original seems to be a symphony, and most of the stories about this song are fabricated, so you can laugh it off. 2. Many people on the Internet say that in a conservatory of music in Ohio, the facts are open to question. It is said that the author of this song has a manuscript that he asked to put in his grave before his death. Someone has analyzed this song. It is said that the scale of this song is beyond people's tolerance (discordant scale), so many people can't stand it (in fact, it is mainly spiritual). It is said that some people in China have a short piece of this song at present, but it has never been played. In the same year, the suicide case, "Melancholy Sunday" spread from Hungary and became popular in Europe and America. It is said that this kind of music has caused hundreds of suicides since then. In Berlin, a salesman hanged himself after copying the soundtrack of Melancholy Sunday. In Rome, a newspaper boy riding a bicycle heard a writer, Rage Seres, in the street.
A beggar hummed the song "Melancholy Sunday". He stopped the car at once, gave all the money to the beggar, then walked to a nearby river and jumped into it. In Belgium, a Hungarian youth listened to the orchestra playing "Blue Sunday" in a bar. At the end of the performance, he suddenly cried hysterically, took out his pistol and shot himself. On the Danube, many people jumped into the river with the music or lyrics of "Melancholy Sunday", among which the youngest was only 14 years old. Out of curiosity, a female typist in new york borrowed a record of Melancholy Sunday to listen to at home. The next day, she was found dead of gas poisoning in her residence. She wrote in her suicide note: "I can't stand this melody, so I have to die now." Blue Sunday is my corolla. "After this song became famous, Cyrus' girlfriend also committed suicide by taking poison ... This is a legendary song, which will kill herself after listening to it. Gloomy Sunday, a music that caused more than 100 people to commit suicide, was called "the devil's love letter" at that time, and at least 100 people committed suicide because of listening to this song, so it was banned for 13 years. Even psychoanalysts and psychologists can't give a satisfactory explanation about the composer's own motivation to create music. It is said that the last full version is now kept in the safe of a music university in Ohio, USA. Let's take a look at the following two stories. According to records, the first person who committed suicide was a British officer. He rested quietly at home and inadvertently began to listen to the CD sent by the postman. The first piece is Black Sunday by Lu Lan Charles. After listening to this passage, his soul was greatly stimulated and his mood could no longer be calm. Soon, he took out the pistol at home and ended his life. At the same time as the gunshots sounded, the song "Black Sunday" was still playing, which was the only death clue he left. After in-depth investigation and speculation, the police concluded that he did commit suicide, but this "Black Sunday" was an indirect killer! And warned people not to listen to this kind of music-because the police almost committed suicide while listening to this kind of music! Then it caused a sensation all over Europe. People feel incredible, afraid and curious. Many people who think their psychological quality is ok are curious to collect and experience it for their own exploration. A middle-aged man in the United States shot himself after listening to this song "Black Sunday" several times, and wrote in his last words: "Please take this song as my funeral music". Then similar suicide news followed, and the whole world panicked from Europe to America to Asia. At that time, a famous person with great status in Europe insisted that a musician present should play Black Sunday on the piano when attending a concert. At first, the pianist resolutely refused, but he had to play because of the pressure and demands of the curious audience. After the performance, the pianist vowed never to touch the piano again! Since then, the celebrity who made the request has disappeared anonymously. At that time, one day, in a bar in Belgium, people were drinking and listening to music. When the band had just finished playing the orchestral work Black Sunday composed by French composer Rez Ceres, they heard a hysterical cry: "I can't stand it! "I saw a young Hungarian raise his neck, drank all the wine in the cup, pulled out his pistol, aimed at his temple and pulled the trigger, and fell in a pool of blood with a bang. A policewoman investigated the case, but she tried her best to find out the reason why the young man committed suicide. Finally, she bought a record of Black Sunday played by the band that day, thinking that she might find some clues to solve the case from here. After playing a record once, she also committed suicide. Her last words to the police chief were found on her desk: "Sir, I don't need to continue investigating the case I accepted. The murderer is the music "Black Sunday". When I was listening to this piece of music, I couldn't stand the stimulation of its sad melody and had to decline the world. "As it happens. When chatting with people, a cheerful and lively female typist in new york, USA, heard how "Black Sunday" makes people sad, so she curiously borrowed this music record and listened to it at home. The next day, she did not go to work. She was found to have committed suicide in her room. The record player is playing Black Sunday. She said in her suicide note: "I can't stand its melody. This song is my funeral repertoire. "In Washington, a newly famous pianist was invited to attend a salon party and play for the guests. During dinner, a guest suddenly received a long-distance call from her mother, who died in a car accident. Because it happened to be Sunday, she asked the pianist to play Black Sunday for her mother to express her condolences. The pianist reluctantly played this piece of music, but just after playing it, he threw himself on the piano because of excessive sadness and never got up again. In Milan, Italy, a musician was confused after hearing these anecdotes. He didn't believe that Black Sunday would cause such serious consequences, so he tried to play on the piano in his living room, died in front of the piano, and wrote his last words on the score of Black Sunday: "The melody of this song is too cruel for human beings to bear. Destroy it, or there will be more human factors. "As more and more people commit suicide, radio stations in the United States, Britain, France, Spain and many other countries hold special meetings, calling on European and American countries to boycott Black Sunday. After so many bizarre suicides, The New York Times published a piece of news with the headline "100 Hungarians committed suicide under the influence of melancholy Sunday". As soon as this news came out, it immediately triggered a heated discussion. Many psychiatrists, psychologists, and even psychiatrists in Europe and America have come to discuss the influence of this song, but they can't fully explain it and can't stop suicide cases. Even more legendary: 1968, Cyrus, the author of this song, finally ended his life by jumping off a building. It is said that when he was old, he was extremely desperate because he lamented that he could never create such an excellent work as Blue Sunday. It may also be because of the death of his girlfriend, and many people died on Black Sunday. He felt guilty and insane, and thus embarked on the road of suicide. The banned broadcast of Melancholy Sunday had an extremely negative psychological impact on the audience, and the BBC first decided to ban it. Subsequently, radio stations in the United States, France and Spain followed the example of BBC. Radio stations in many countries also hold special meetings, and the resolution is to boycott "Melancholy Sunday" in Europe and America. It is said that the suicide rate has indeed dropped a lot. After the storm began to subside for some time, the BBC cancelled the ban on Blue Sunday, but only broadcast its music version. This version was quickly recorded as a record. 194 1 August music by black female singer Billie? Billie Holiday reinterpreted it, and melancholy Sundays became popular again until today.

Sunday is beautiful and bright. In ancient China, it was called "Ri Yao Ri" (this name is still retained in Japanese). But, rez. Cerise lives in pain and darkness, so it is dark in his world, which does not mean that Sunday is actually dark; Just as poets cry when they see fallen leaves, and farmers rejoice when they see fallen leaves accumulating fertilizer, there is no right or wrong in the fallen leaves themselves. In the Hungarian 157 suicide incident, many people had a direct or indirect relationship with this song before they died. After spreading abroad, it directly or indirectly caused many deaths, so it was banned for 13 years until1945; Therefore, it is also called "death music" or "invitation from the devil". The popularity of this song in Europe and America became popular through the French version (muddy Dimanche) sung by Damia in 1936, so this version is very famous. Later, after it was spread to the United States, Billie Holiday, a black female singer, covered this song at 194 1, and since then, this song has become more and more popular. This is the English version of Gloomy Sunday (Black Sunday), which has been popular until now. Some people divide more than 50 singing versions of Black Sunday into two categories: original version and adapted version, or Damia version and Billie Holiday version. Damia version is sung in French, but the melody it uses is the original song of the original author; Moreover, the recording is accompanied by piano and duet (or chorus) group (but the piano accompaniment is weak and can be ignored; Coupled with the sense of realism and scene of SP record, its emotion is really sad, which is unmatched by any modern version. However, the Billie Holiday version injected some jazz flavor into it, and at the same time disrupted the original music structure of 4/4 triplet, completely changed the rhythm and taste, and became an ordinary pop song; Although a trace of the original song can be vaguely heard from the melody, it is far from the original song. At the same time, a theme similar to "chorus" was added. The melody and lyrics of this song have been handed down to this day and become the lyrics used in most cover versions, so that many modern people think this version is the original; Even the Hungarian version of the cover (such as Hernadi Judith's version) uses the word "Szomorú vasárnap" created by laszlo Yavo, but the melody is similar to the original version, with the addition of "chorus" like the Billie Holiday version, so the current cover version can be considered as the descendant of the Billie Holiday version; Except for the piano, piano and violin, piano and vocal music in the film "Gloomy Sunday" (Taiwan translation of "Crazy Piano"/Hong Kong translation of "Love in Budapest"), almost no modern version is exactly the same as the original; But the singing or performance in the film is not as emotional as Damia's version. Therefore, these editions are classified as "Billie Holiday Edition" as the representative of these editions; The original or similar to the original is represented by the "Damia Edition" class. The rhythm of the original song is basically triplet, from beginning to end. Adagio (Italian, adagio) stands for speed; The tonality is C minor (like key signature and bE major), unlike some netizens who said that "the whole song is dominated by discordant scales". The first bar (the bar here is calculated from the singing part, excluding the prelude) is the decomposition of the first chord (minor chord) in C minor and the repetition of the tonic, from C 1-
Edit this scientific research about Black Sunday.
According to related research, the scale of the original music is beyond human tolerance (dissonance scale), and the bass is beyond human acceptance and close to infrasound (infrasound and ultrasonic waves are inaudible to human ears). Sound waves with frequencies below 20Hz are called infrasound waves. Infrasound waves are not easily attenuated and absorbed by water and air. Infrasound often has a long wavelength, so it can be diffracted around some large obstacles. Some infrasound waves can circle the earth two or three times. Some frequencies of infrasound are similar to those of human organs, so it is easy to vibrate with human organs, which is very harmful to human body and can cause death when it is dangerous. So people who listen to this music will die even if they don't commit suicide. Of course, this is only one aspect of the suicide caused by this music. In addition, the listener's previous psychological suggestion, psychological ringing, etc. Are all causes of suicide.
Some netizens said that the modern version of Black Sunday is not without "lethality", but because it is not the original. This is an irresponsible statement, which shows that the initiator of this statement is only influenced by various rumors and regards Black Sunday as a myth or legend, not history. What is "lethality"? Music itself does not have this ability. It is not impossible to say that the vibration of music can be destroyed if it is consistent with the building, but it is caused by physical reasons, but it cannot be attributed to the so-called "lethality" of music itself. "Embattled" only uses people's psychological reasons, not the song itself has this ability; If all the soldiers in Xiang Yu's novels were in Chu, wouldn't they be in flight after listening to the concert in their hometown? As for Mozart's music, it does have some magical effects, but that's just the psychological effect of music. Listening to classical music has a delicate and elegant aesthetic feeling, just like appreciating baroque exquisite architecture, but listening to rock music is hard to have this feeling. Moreover, not everyone feels this way when listening to classical music. Even many people are semi-blind when listening to Bach's organ bell and excited when listening to rock music. So even if this baroque music is really "lethal", what effect does it have on this person? If the deaf listen to music, what is the so-called "lethality" of music to him? So these rumors not only are irresponsible, but also demonize Black Sunday. Two years ago, a junior at Hubei Yangtze University fainted while listening to this song (which should be a modern cover version) in an Internet cafe. Before listening to the song, he first saw the introduction on the webpage. The overall tone of the webpage is black, and the skull next to it seems to be sending invitations to everyone. The looming title directly above adds to the mystery of the web page. Judging from the picture alone, it sends a terrible message. The story of many people committing suicide after listening to this piece of music on the web page is even more sensational (that is, the historical event that people rushed to reprint this song "killing" people). Bad psychological suggestion is the root of students' reaction after listening to this music; A lot of reports about this song on these websites have formed a bad hint. These rumors spread from one source to another are spreading a bad hint and adding an unexpected "lethality" to this very ordinary song through hearsay. People who committed suicide in those years all listened to it under certain historical or social psychological conditions, which is just not the root. So this so-called "lethality" is not included in the song itself, but based on certain historical events. Just like peppers are difficult to sell this year, they are poured into the river, and some people sell them with thread, which is very hot; Donkey dung eggs neglected by rural dogs will become good flower fertilizer when packaged in cities, won't they? Black Sunday at that time not only produced records, but also often played on the radio. There are many people listening to this music, but most of them have nothing unusual, and not all of them committed suicide after listening to it. Some people are psychologically suggestive and easy to accept relevant stimuli; When he receives relevant stimuli, all the defense systems of his body will be mobilized to make a brilliant state, and then relevant reactions will occur, and college students will faint. If he hadn't seen these renderings in advance, he wouldn't have listened to the song directly. In other words, Black Sunday kills people because some people have strong psychological suggestion ability. Coupled with that era (World War II), people were in panic, and it was inevitable that there was a pessimism, emotion and music echo each other, which led to suicide. Some people also heard a legend that the original song was a piano piece with a length of more than 47 minutes, and they struggled to find its recording while believing it; Others said that the last original music score was locked in the safe of an American conservatory of music. According to relevant data, the records released in that year were bakelite records with standard play (SP) of 78 rpm, which were widely used in 1930s. Generally used on mechanical hand-cranked phonographs, recording on both sides is about *** 10 minutes. Although the record player appeared long ago, it was not popular at that time. Although 33- 1/3-turn LP records appeared in 1930s, it was not until 1948 that Columbia Records released LP records that the phonograph became popular. LP records can be recorded on both sides, about half an hour. If Black Sunday is really a music with more than 47 minutes, you need 5-6 SP records and 1 or 2 LP records. However, according to relevant information, Black Sunday was an SP record at that time. How can it be said that it is 47 minutes long? One more thing, is it a piano piece, a piano concerto, a piano suite, a large oratorio or just a song? How many records have been recorded and released? Is it an SP record or an LP record? One more thing, how did you get these 47 minutes? According to the score, this statement is far-fetched Because most music scores only indicate the approximate speed of music, such as andante, allegro and adagio. The speed of how many beats per minute is different for each performer. Take China's famous song Butterfly Lovers as an example. The speed of Shen Rong's 196 1 version is different from that of Xiqi heiheirage's version or Xue Wei's version or Sheng Zhongguo's version in the late 1980s. So the total duration of play is naturally different. If the time is based on a certain version of the recording, what version is this recording and what form was it recorded? Record? Or a bug? So in the absence of relevant information and evidence, this statement can only be regarded as a legend.
When autumn comes, the leaves also fall. All the love in the world is dead. The wind is shedding sad tears. My heart no longer looks forward to the new spring. My tears and sadness are meaningless. People are unintentional. Greed and evil love are dead! It's the end of the world, and hope is meaningless. The city is being razed to the ground by shells and fragments to make music. The grass is stained with human blood. The streets are full of dead people. I will pray again that people are sinners. God, the world where people make mistakes is over! Gloomy Sunday Chinese translation: Black Sunday is hard to sleep. I live in countless shadows. Glittering can't wake you up. The black hearse can't take you away. The angel didn't send you back. Will they be angry if I want to leave with you? Black Sunday spent in the shadows. My heart and I decided to end all the flowers and prayers, which would bring sadness. I know not to cry, let them know that my smiling death is not an empty dream, so I can caress your soul and bless you with my last breath. I was just dreaming. When I wake up, I will find you sleeping in my heart, dear! Dear, I hope my dream won't bother you. My heart tells you how much I long for your melancholy Sunday. Trelige Sonntag (German lyrics edition) Trelige Sonntag, don't you know what Schwartzen said to me? I'm happy, but she said I can't stand it. She said I don't know where she is? I'm not here. He said I've been here with Sonntag. Today, I told him that I've been to Sonntag when I was in Germany. He said that I've been there when I was in Germany. If I close my eyes, I'll see a thousand days of loneliness. I can't sleep, but when I sleep steady, there is a faint shadow flashing. Don't leave me here. Tell the angel that I spent countless lonely Sundays with him. Today, I will go to the long night and light the candle immediately. The smoke of candles makes my eyes moist, so I don't need to cry, my friend, because I finally breathed a sigh of relief and accompanied me home forever. In the dark, I will be safe and melancholy on Sunday (4) Gloomy Sunday, French version of Gloomy Sunday ... Are there any flowers in our C room? Your car has left, you are gone, my heart is crying, my heart is crying, my heart is crying ... gloomy Sunday ... I am sad that I will come back to see you one day, but will I go to the party? Lelang gave me a warm support, without effort, my love, my love, just like a gloomy Sunday. On a blue Sunday, I walked into our room with flowers in my hand. I am exhausted, because I know you will never come back. I sing sad love songs. I was alone, crying in a low voice, listening to the plaintive cries of rime. A Sunday is coming, and I will die because I can't stand it. When you come back, I will let the sacrificial candle burn, and I will open my eyes again as eager as I hope. Don't be afraid, dear. Even if my eyes can't stare at you, I will still tell you that I love you more than my life. (2) Gloomy Sunday (Cantonese version) It is also a blessing that Lin will not have to sleep tomorrow. Candlelight, poetry, feelings. I prepared flowers scattered like ashes in the clock. My feet are so heavy that I finally don't have to land. Don't be curious. It will make you more sad. I was suddenly delighted. I can't sleep for so long. Gloomy Xun, he's gone. What's the surprise? Where are you? How jealous I am that dandelion will die and fly to its destination. Dear, one day it will fall to the ground, without hate or love. Father, don't be discouraged. Don't worry who will say goodbye forever. Let's stay together in the end. You made me sleep until my eyes turned red and I woke up in a nightmare. My heart is gray and my tears are warm, which makes me relax. I will never forget kissing you in your ward before. You can also ask me why I am sad with a smile.

1999, Germany and Hungary co-produced an anti-war film named Ein Lied von Liebe und Tod with the theme of Melancholy Sunday. The film is set in Budapest during World War II. A young Hungarian pianist, Andras (Rage Seres is the prototype of this role), is employed in a restaurant. He fell in love with the beautiful Hungarian girl Ilona, the girlfriend of his boss Laszlo, and wrote the song Melancholy Sunday for her. The three men then fell into an unusual but sweet and balanced love triangle, which lasted until the reappearance of SS officer Hans Vic. Hans Vic visited this restaurant as a German businessman before World War II and showed his love to Ilona, but he was rejected. Hans Vic tried to commit suicide by jumping into the river, but was rescued by restaurant owner Laszlo in time. Hans Vic, who returned to Budapest, was not grateful. Instead, he insulted Laszlo (he was a Jew) and bossed other Hungarians around. Once at dinner, he asked Andos to play "Melancholy Sunday" for him, but Andras didn't listen to him and just gave him a beating. In order to ease the tense atmosphere, Ilona asked him to play and sang with his piano (Ilona never sang in public in the past). Andras, who couldn't bear the humiliation of the invaders, immediately picked up the pistol broken by Hanswick's waist and shot himself after playing Melancholy Sunday. At the end of the story, Hans Vic cruelly sent his former benefactor, Laszlo, to a concentration camp after deceiving and occupying Ilona like a wild animal.
