The End Of The World is a pop song written by composer Arthur Kent and lyricist Sylvia Dee, who often worked as a team. They wrote the song for American singer Skeeter Davis, and her recording of it was highly successful in the early 1960s, reaching the Top-5 on four different charts, including #2 on the main Billboard Hot 100. It spawned many cover versions.

I like all three. Susan Boyle surprises me every time I hear her.

I voted for Skeeter Davis. She is the best

Attn: Cooksie - her given name is Mary Frances. Because her grandfather thought she had a lot of energy for a young child, he nicknamed Mary Frances "Skeeter" (slang for mosquito)
