“It Doesn’t Matter Anymore” was a hit single recorded by American singer-songwriter Buddy Holly in 1958. It was one of Holly’s final recordings before his tragic death in a plane crash later that year.
The song is a melancholic ballad that reflects on the end of a relationship, with Holly expressing a sense of resignation and acceptance that “it doesn’t matter anymore.” It’s considered one of Holly’s most poignant and enduring compositions.’
“It Doesn’t Matter Anymore” was a commercial success, reaching the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in early 1959, shortly after Holly’s passing. The song has since become a standard in Holly’s influential catalog and is still widely recognized as one of the artist’s most beloved and impactful works.
