Skeeter Davis - The End of The World

This song was introduced to me through a little-known TV show called Granite Flats. You can see just how depressing it is by watching the show's intro here (I'm amazed I found the intro at all!).

Something about this song straight-up creeps me out. It's best used in this show's intro, but just hearing it gives me the feeling of complete hopelessness, like nothing has any meaning. Sorry, got a little deep there for a sec.

EDIT: Forgot to hyperlink, sorry.

Also, thanks for the substitution @Emergency Lunch. Good luck to all participants! ^^

A beautiful song that definitely gets me to reflect on my life, the good and the bad. It entrances you with the combination of the violin and piano. A type of sadness is invoked that I think is perfect to listen to multiple times and not be dissuaded immediately, a subtle transition to leaking certain emotions. @Emergency Lunch

@Emergency Lunch

Did you guys watch that intro I linked you to? Bone-chilling and depressing!
And yes, I watched it; context is always wonderful, however, let's not forget, the song is the submission; my interest lies with the music.

I've decided to offer a third place prize of 75 PC, and I've extended the contest until the 25th, as I suggested I might early on. Good work everyone, keep up the submissions!

I totally get that, I just love how it's used there and wanted to share. Looking forward to seeing new submissions!

@Emergency Lunch can i get the prize in PC if I win? it would be bad if it would become useless for regional limitations or something like that

here is a sad battle theme, i hope it counts
here is the context of the music if you wanna read it
yuyuko, a ghost lady that rules over the netherworld wants to revive a tree, her reason for it is that there is a dead girl in the roots of the tree , she thinks that the girl killed herself , and believes that, if she revives the tree, the girl will also revive, yuyuko wants to ask the girl why she killed herself, why she would trown away her precius life,
her servant,her name being youmou, its trying to stop her, even if she must hurt her dear master
the truth is... the girl didnt killed herself, she sacrified her life to defeat the evil tree, that tree was devouring the souls of the people, and the dead girl was the one who stopped it, saving the people from her village in the process
and the girl is...yuyuko herself, she doesnt remember it, and youmu is trying to defeat her, so that she doent make something she would regret for her entire existence
rigth now, youmou prepares her sword to figth, she knows that her master wont die ,the only true danger is that the tree will try to devour her soul is it revives,but still, the thoutgh of making her dear master suffer pain by her own hand is horrible for her ,but it is what it must be done, for the safety of her master, and her friends
maybe i will have a sustitute for it, but for now this is my submission

Uhhhhhh, I may not have the equivalent of $50 PC to say yes to that, but if I'm not mistaken Visa is generally accepted everywhere; are you sure you wouldn't be use it? If not, I'm sure we can find some way to accommodate you, but please let me know.

Visa's no good in the UK? Even digitally? Or is it because its American currency and you use euros?

euros?? It's pounds :p and yeah, it's cause it's dollars. Wouldn't be accepted on most things, even on US amazon because most things on there wont ship to UK.
