Suicidal inducing song/tune

[potter666]

Has anyone else heard of the tune/song written in the early part of the twentieth century that said to induce suicides and deep depression on alot of those that hear it? I believe it was written by a Hungarian when spurned by his wife but cannot be certain. I know it's been mentioned on QI and think it's called something like Sad Sunday. Desperate to find out..for a laugh may play it at the next party we go to

All good and true answers, thank you all. Mind you the theme tune to Hollyoaks has a diminutive effect on me-I start to lose the will to live when I hear it....

Is that the new theme tune to Hollyoaks or the old one?

Don't know about you, but the new one just makes me want to wet my pants !
