I too love there covers, usually they improve any song, But i hated the original "Last Kiss", the song just freakin irritates me., he's like 18, his girlfriend just got killed in a car crash, now he has to be a saint the rest of his life so he can get into heaven. Your 18 dude, you'll get over her, now the time start drinkin and doin drugs, nobody would blame you.
Best cover band ever. I, too, would pay to see a 30-cover-song show. Why do so many hate "Last Kiss"? I think it's a great cover, fun live and it is the band's first No. 1 hit, no less with a cover of a 35-year-old song a few years after PJ was out of the front-and-center spotlight.

The song was written in more simple times man I always loved this song.. remember singing it in choir in school before i ever heard pj's version, always liked it..

me too a favorite in my young years- knew all the words it even would make me cry
I was so surprised, pleasantly, when PJ covered it and it made it to the radio
another bonding moment with PJ
"Oh, if I knew where it was I would take you there but there's much more than this. Woh see the world."
"I know I was born and I know that I'll die. The in between is mine"
"No need to be void, or save up on life. You got to spend it all"

Sorry, I think Gov't Mule is the best cover band ever.
To each is own though!
Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
If Last Kiss was just a Xmas single and didn't become a radio hit, alot less people would hate on it. There'd probably be threads saying "Please play Last Kiss at _______ show"
I've never heard it :shock: but can't possibly imagine how it could be good.

i get that, you have a point there. i get the emotion of the song, but i just don't agree with the conculsion. always seemed romanticisized to me.

I agree however I have never heard it on the radio...probably because our stations here play only the stinkiest shit.
Last Kiss = great cover

Everyday People by good ol' Sly Stone-not a favorite of mine
SAY WHAT?!?!?! Sly & the fam stone was the shit!!!! where's your soul at?!?!
Sometimes I'm right and I can be wrong
My own beliefs are in my song
The butcher, the banker, the drummer and then
Makes no difference what group I'm in
I am everyday people, yeah yeah
There is a blue one who can't accept the green one
For living with a fat one trying to be a skinny one
And different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo-bee
Oh sha sha - we got to live together
I am no better and neither are you
We are the same whatever we do
You love me you hate me you know me and then
You can't figure out the bag l'm in
I am everyday people, yeah yeah
There is a long hair that doesn't like the short hair
For bein' such a rich one that will not help the poor one
And different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and scooby dooby doo-bee
Oh sha sha-we got to live together
There is a yellow one that won't accept the black one
That won't accept the red one that won't accept the white one
And different strokes for different folks
read that shit!....how can you not like it? :? :? :?
oh well...like the song says " different strokes for different folks "

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one on here who enjoys Last Kiss. It's kind of a taboo on this Board.

I didn't know so many people on here hated Last Kiss! At least I know I'm not the only one! And it's not because it was such a big hit, either. I wasn't even a PJ fan @ that time so I have no idea what it was like, but it's just a very annoying song in general.
Last Kiss sucked originally, and sucks just as bad with Ed singing. Saw PJ at Summerfest with Tom Petty. They OPENED their set with Last Kiss, and it ruined the show for me. The song is like nails on a chalkboard to me.

I was at that show too and I couldn't agree more. It just left a bad taste in my mouth for the rest of the set. I've seen it twice (Chi 2 '06 was the other, and even though Ed appeared at the soundboard to sing it, it still sucked), and I pray that I never see it again.

He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share, his key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere.
Night 2 in Philly was a good rendition of the song - the band all stood on a very small platform and played it for the folks in the back - matt even had like a single drummerboy drum -
I get it - but don't care for it either and that is only because of the overplay on the radio

yes!!
that song may be my least favorite song of all that i've ever heard in my entire life.
please don't ever play that garbage again guys.
I'll assume neither of you were there for that, for two reasons:
(1) That is a solid cover of a legendary song, Ed flubs lyrics but the crowd drowned him out anyway (if u were there).
and (2) it came out of nowhere. (except for ppl who heard soundcheck, which i didnt).
And that's really the issue here - I had my fun, and that's all that matters.
i get that, you have a point there. i get the emotion of the song, but i just don't agree with the conculsion. always seemed romanticisized to me.
Worst example ever. That was a one time thing for Dublin.
