I remember hearing this on the radio while riding along with my mom in an open top Willys Jeep (not the military model but very similar). Early 60's, and the song is still a Classic.
Already 50 years ago when I was in middle school It was a pop song playing through the school speakers during lunchtime. At the time, I didn't know what it meant and I only listened to music. Now, at the point where I know the meaning and can memorize it and sing along I found out that this song sang the sorrow of losing precious people I fell in love with this song even more I would like to express my gratitude to the singer who sang such a great song already a long time ago
Great song! How many people have had this emotion? Heartbreak in love is so devastating, but there is forever a great hope in Christ, who will wipe away every tear.
I worked with Skeeter's husband, on the railroad, on the road out of covington Ky. in the early 70's. I just couldn't grasp that she was a world famous singer and I was talking to her husband about the train trip we had ahead of us. I just found it wild that he was not in nashville enjoying the high life!!
I just had to jump in here Terry Adams. That story is 100% FACT! My wife is from Covington Kentucky and Through her marriage to her first husband, Skeeter Davis ended up being my wife's cousin-in-law(if there is such a thing)! She knew Miss Davis very well and even got to hear Miss Davis sing this song at a family function. When I saw Covington Ky in your comment, I just had to chime in! Miss Davis' will ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED for that song! Such a BEAUTIFUL young lady who sang a BEAUTIFUL SONG. RIP SKEETER DAVIS.
@@russ5024, that sounds like a typical biography. I think that we both agree that regardless of who is telling the truth, Skeeter Davis had a very good voice. It reminds me of Liberace's biography. He NEVER admitted that he was gay or had HIV. He went as far as to deny both statements. It's always fun to read a Biography of someone and then the other party involved comes out with "THEIR VERSION" of the story. Somewhere in the middle is the truth. That old saying still holds true today. "It takes two people to make a marriage but only one to break it".
The morning after I learned my best friend was no longer in this world, I looked out the window at the sky. Looking from side to side, I realized I couldn't ever find her in this world again . For she shared my soul. She was my Guardian Angel. No one can have the Special place in my heart that belongs to Angel ❤
I’d love to say it will stop hurting, but that’s not quite true. Over time you just become more adept at dealing with it, so in that respect it gets easier. However, I have no doubt she is watching over you. And in a hundred different ways, she is letting you know this. Just look for them. Maybe a song you both loved comes on the radio the same time you are thinking of her. Or a butterfly comes flitting by unexpectedly, etc. God knows your pain and I believe offers these little happenings to strengthen you both and to ease bereavement.
My goodness......how I cried to this song when a breakup happened in HS. mom kept saying it's not the end of the world. Than! I would hear this song.. isn't it precious ..innocent times ? 💕.
Wow. Was watching the flight attendant and this came on. I remember this song as a very young child. What a beautiful song. Timeless. For all that lost a loved one, please remember that they have passed on to a whole other world. That's the promise we have in Jesus. There are no tears in heaven. Till we all meet again.
Why does the sun go on shining Why does the sea rush to shore Don't they know it's the end of the world 'Cause You don't love me anymore, Yes Why do the birds go on singing Why do the stars glow above Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when I lost your love I wake up in the mornin' and I wonder Why everythings the same as it was I can't understand, No I can't understand How life goes on the way it does Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said goodbye Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said goodbye Goodbye
Such a beautiful song and voice, It is also worth listening to Emily Linge who was 14 when she sang this(,she has just celebrated her 15 th birthday, beautiful piano playing too.
Covid made me stop thinking of this as a love song, and more of a warning! It's now June 2021, I can go back to hearing a love song! Welcome back! Be safe!
Still a warning. The world is sick in more ways than one. COVID, climate change, guns and insanity. Hopefully the darkest hour before the dawn- still gotta have hope, right?....
Recorded: June 8, 1962. Skeeter Davis (1931-2004) became incapacitated by her breast cancer, which had metastasized. The following year, she made her final performance at the Grand Ole Opry, performing "The End of the World." She died of breast cancer in a Nashville, Tennessee, hospice on September 19, 2004, aged 72.

Why pretend to love someone when they're only an after thought and never a priority? Bring it on, its already the end of the world for people in this position........
The End of the World Skeeter Davis Why does the sun go on shining? Why does the sea rush to shore? Don't they know it's the end of the world? 'Cause you don't love me any more Why do the birds go on singing? Why do the stars glow above? Don't they know it's the end of the world? It ended when I lost your love I wake-up in the morning, and I wonder Why everything's the same as it was I can't understand, no, I can't understand How life goes on the way it does Why does my heart go on beating? Why do these eyes of mine cry? Don't they know it's the end of the world? It ended when you said, "Good-bye" Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm (Why do these eyes of mine cry?) Mmm, mmm, mmm Don't they know it's the end of the world? It ended when you said, "Good-bye"
Russian soldiers with human hearts, please return to Russia. Stop fighting in Ukraine. Myanmar's army, don't crack down on the people by military force. Please stop all attacks. Do not use military force. No more. Are you not children of humans? The moment I heard this song, tears flowed and I bewailed. Thank you for uploading a wonderful song. All people who lost loving men in wars, please live.
Remind me of my beloved dad😢he was a big fan of Skeeter Davis 🙏❤️
What a beautiful song only Skeeter can sing it God bless her for giving this to us Rip dear lady?
I remember hearing this on the radio while riding along with my mom in an open top Willys Jeep (not the military model but very similar). Early 60's, and the song is still a Classic.
I have always loved the innocence and sincerity in her voice
I share the same. One of a kind.
Skeeter.
And if You see her eyes, You can sense her feelings...
So pure
❤
Trust me. This song will be famous in a year of 2277 AD. It will be played in a radio called Diamond City Radio...
Safwan Hassan the great mushroom war
Vault 111 had no radio in it to hear this beautiful song!
It is famous now... especially the chorus
Wow. How did you know?
I do trust you, agree
The most beautiful and sad song in the World🌹🕊️
73 and remember this beautiful song in 2024
19th was her 93rd bday
Already 50 years ago when I was in middle school
It was a pop song playing through the school speakers during lunchtime.
At the time, I didn't know what it meant and I only listened to music.
Now, at the point where I know the meaning and can memorize it and sing along
I found out that this song sang the sorrow of losing precious people
I fell in love with this song even more
I would like to express my gratitude to the singer who sang such a great song already a long time ago
One of the earliest songs I remember hearing in my teens.
A timeless classic!
As a young boy growing up in Barbados about 45 years the people would play this song more than often. They really loved Skeeter
Great song! How many people have had this emotion? Heartbreak in love is so devastating, but there is forever a great hope in Christ, who will wipe away every tear.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The very first 45 I bought when I was a kid....a beautiful song from a beautiful lady......still love this after all of the years that have passed....
I worked with Skeeter's husband, on the railroad, on the road out of covington Ky. in the early 70's. I just couldn't grasp that she was a world famous singer and I was talking to her husband about the train trip we had ahead of us. I just found it wild that he was not in nashville enjoying the high life!!
Her first husband I suppose. Understand she married Joey Spampinato a multi-instrumentalist in 1987.
I just had to jump in here Terry Adams. That story is 100% FACT! My wife is from Covington Kentucky and Through her marriage to her first husband, Skeeter Davis ended up being my wife's cousin-in-law(if there is such a thing)!

Miss Davis' will ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED for that song! Such a BEAUTIFUL young lady who sang a BEAUTIFUL SONG. RIP SKEETER DAVIS.

R.I.P. Skeeter. You'll always live on....
Brings back good memories, before our country was screwed!

This is the best version of this song. It makes me cry Everytime.
My head aches and this keeps ringing in my ear!
What a beautiful song !
この方の、この曲は-完璧に素晴らしい！永遠です。
My goodness......how I cried to this song when a breakup happened in HS. mom kept saying it's not the end of the world. Than! I would hear this song.. isn't it precious ..innocent times ? 💕.
Yes it's precious
At the lowest moments of my life, this song helped me realize that others had gone before me and survived.
Wow. Was watching the flight attendant and this came on. I remember this song as a very young child. What a beautiful song. Timeless. For all that lost a loved one, please remember that they have passed on to a whole other world. That's the promise we have in Jesus. There are no tears in heaven. Till we all meet again.
Appreciate this song so much now. It's timeless. It will always be a classic.
What a beautiful song ❤️
Why does the sun go on shining
Why does the sea rush to shore
Don't they know it's the end of the world
'Cause You don't love me anymore, Yes
Why do the birds go on singing
Why do the stars glow above
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when I lost your love
I wake up in the mornin' and I wonder
Why everythings the same as it was
I can't understand, No
I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating
Why do these eyes of mine cry
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye
Goodbye
The first record I ever bought. Still sounds great. Thanks.
I remember listening to this song when I was young. Skeeter was such a great singer.
😂😢
😢😢🎉😮
At the time that song was a hit, country, artist and songs were able to cross over to the Pop format. Great song brings back so many memories.
Timeless..so beautiful ❤

OH, this breaks my heart! I had no idea. I have always loved her and the songs she did. Thank you for this tragic update.❤
It's fantastic.

This song is one of the Koreans’ favorite American pop songs.
Beautiful song!

Thank you Fallout 3 for introducing me to this great artist.
Why pretend to love someone when they're only an after thought and never a priority? Bring it on, its already the end of the world for people in this position........
She beautiful ❤
歌詞が出ましたので、なんとなく意味が今日解りましたよ。初めてこの歌を聴いたのが約４０年前でした。この女性が本家本元かと!たどたどしい箇所もありますが、何故か心が動くんですよ。
Nice arrangement & love the song too....
For my very first love. I miss him still even though he married someone else.
The End of the World
Skeeter Davis
Why does the sun go on shining?
Why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
'Cause you don't love me any more
Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when I lost your love
I wake-up in the morning, and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand, no, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said, "Good-bye"
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
(Why do these eyes of mine cry?)
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said, "Good-bye"
Beautiful 🐦👌💟😘🌈
Beautiful
Mad Men brought me here! 💪

Mary Frances Penick "Skeeter Davis" died in 2004 from metastatic breast cancer. Sadly
I would like to hear Skeeter Davis follow this song with something like ride the wild surf by Jan and Dean the contrast would be fascinating
