Poznata verzija je ta od Bili Holidej. Po urbanoj legendi, ova pesma je inspirisala stotine samoubistava pa je zato u SAD prozvana “Hungarian suicide song”. Njen kompozitor se zapravo ubio 1968. ali ostala samoubistva nisu potvrdjena i ta prica je navodno uglavnom bila deo marketing kampanje.
Verzija Bili Holidej je bila zabranjena verovatno zbog II svetskog rata..
