Skeeter Davis: The End of the World

I never got into Heroes, but I did like the BBC trailers for the first season and their use of this song.

The best account of Skeeter Davis's career is I can find is an article from No Depression magazine that is reproduced on a Linda Ronstadt website. It says that Davis was born Mary Frances Penickin in (like all good Country artists) a two-room cabin in Kentucky.

There is also an article about her on BookSteve's Library.
