Instant channel changer (ideally during the drum intro before he even starts singing):
04 04 Pearl Jam - Last Kiss

04 04 Pearl Jam - Last Kiss

Agreed. If I was in the fan club, I'd feel like I had gotten gypped if that was the bonus gift.

Not surprisingly, it's the one and only Pearl Jam song that 98 doesn't hate. Different strokes...

"Last Kiss" is either an instant channel changer or a song I like depending on my mood of the day. Same with the original.

 

[Channel98]

Last Kiss was written by Wayne Cochran (full name: Talvin Wayne Cochran). Here is his original version, recorded in September 1961:

 

[IdRatherBeSkiing]

I guess my original was a remake.

 

[Channel98]

Wayne Cochran's Last Kiss was released in September 1961 by Gala Records, a label owned by Bobby Sandin in Vidalia, Georgia. Aire Records of Dublin, Georgia, re-released the song in December 1962. King Records in Cincinnati re-released the song in March 1964, minus the car crash noise at the beginning. Gallico Records in Macon, Georgia, re-released the song in 1969. Four different releases, each in a different year, and the song never charted.

It's always an ICC for me.
