As part of the soundtrack for “The Man In The High Castle,” comes Sharon Van Etten’s gorgeous cover version of one of the most beloved songs ever: “The End of The World.” Originally recorded in 1962 by Skeeter Davis, the heartbreaking song has been covered many, many times in the past (in Portuguese, Finnish and Cantonese; and by everybody from The Carpenters to Lana Del Rey) but Van Etten’s take doesn’t just add to the noise—rather, it’s a tender, sublime and ultimately vulnerable version that tugs at the heartstrings.
