"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 five on four different charts, including No.?2 on the main Billboard Hot 100. It spawned many cover versions.
"The End of the World" is a sad song about the aftermath of a romantic breakup. Dee, the lyricist, said she drew on her sorrow from her father's death to set the mood for the song.
In 1975, American pop music duo Carpenters released a cover of "The End of the World" as a promotional single from their live album Live in Japan. It was recorded at the Festival Hall, Osaka, Japan.

相信大家對The end of the world 這首歌不陌生。以前在國內聽到的應該是卡朋特兄妹的版本，那時就已經非常喜歡這首歌。從歌詞上看，這應該是一首比較傷感的情歌，描寫深愛戀人分手後感覺世界末日要來臨的悲傷情緒。但實際上詞作者的創作靈感來自於自己父親去世後的複雜感受。
能夠演唱這首歌確實是一種榮幸，一種能夠唱自己喜歡的歌的歡欣喜悅！盡管是首傷感的歌，但卻能讓人感受到歌裏的大愛與溫情！非常感謝歌友Owl的底版！
實際上我唱的瑕疵頗多，敬請大家多包涵！也希望你喜歡這首經典！
