I can't believe I still don't know this after this long. everything I've read states it's the band from the movie. is it actually Matt Dillon that sings vocals on this track?
Darwinspeed, all.

    It's EV.
    I also read that. But it doesn't sound like him to me. the only part of the vocal track that sounds like him is when he screams.

    I always thought it was Mark Arm from Mudhoney.
  • The soundtrack to Cameron Crowe’s Singles has long been heralded as a turning point in the Seattle grunge movement. Packed with tracks from Pearl JamSoundgarden and Mudhoney, the OST was certified twice platinum, and helped further indoctrinate grunge into the American music canon.

    Most interesting, however, was the soundtrack’s omission of Citizen Dick, the fictional band fronted by Matt Dillon in the movie. That’s about to change as “Touch Me I’m Dick” will receive an exclusive 7-inch release for this year’s Record Store Day on April 18th.

    The song, which features Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder, Stone Gossard, and Jeff Ament, is effectively a parody of Mudhoney’s classic “Touch Me I’m Sick” but, you know, with more dick jokes.

    The b-side of the 7-inch features an etched quote from Dillon’s character, Cliff Poncier, explaining the meaning of the song: “I think a lot of people might think it’s actually about, you know, ‘My name is Dick, and, you know, you can touch me,’ but, I think, you know, it can be seen either way.”

    If that's Eddie then he's doing one hell of a Mark Arm impression. I assumed that his credit on the song was on drums. 
  • It's definitely Ed.

    I can't believe this is still being talked about. If the singing doesn't convince you, the "Natas...natas" at the end should convince you it's Ed.

    i always love these types of comments. akin to a teenager making fun of someone for not hearing the latest gossip.

    Haven't listened to that for about 20 years.  After a fresh listen, it sounds like it could have been a Spin The Black Circle demo.

    Same.   Just hit up YouTube.   Sounds like Eddie to me
