92. The End Of The World – Vonda Shepherd (1998)


‘The End Of The World’ is a cover version by Vonda Shepherd that was featured in the tv series ‘Ally McBeal’ and is one of my favourite songs from that show.

I must admit that I loved Ally McBeal and Kerry and I watched most of the episodes! From the dancing baby, the fantastic cases that the team of lawyers chose to take on, the bizarre ritual that saw the cast sing songs with Vonda in the downstairs bar as recreation to Dr. Tracey and her ‘theme songs’ and the ‘Reggie Perrin style’ flashes of imagined visual imagery the series was truly inspiring and great viewing. Like most great American TV shows it could have you laughing out loud one minute and crying like a baby the next. Unfortunately like most great things it got a bit crazy at the end but it will always remain one of my favourite programmes.

This is a truly great song and whenever I hear it I am reminded of ‘Ally’ and the show and also what a truly great artist Vonda Shepherd actually is.

Enjoy the song….
