Pearl Jam - Last Kiss (not sure who did the original, but Pearl Jam did a great job on the remix)

The PJ cover is better. In the original, the singer is waaay too upbeat considering his gf just died.

The original was done by Buddy Holly.... :|

Pretty much anything by Meatload works for depressing.

Nope sorry it was done about 6 years after he died by J. Frank Wilson & The Cavaliers.

But then again why be depressed? I was sad a few days ago and listening to depressing music then I was like, wait why bother being sad it just takes more effort.

You are correct... my bad, I was shooting from the hip and missed 😛
Did some quick googling, the song was actually originally written and recorded by Wayne Cochran it seems. His version of the song, it seems, is impossible to find.

Nope, it's on OK Computer. Thinking of Motion Picture Soundtrack, maybe?

It is? Is it called something else? (maybe Motion Picture Soundtrack)?

Cat's in the Cradle - Cat Stevens (definitely)

Cats In The Cradle was not ever EVER recorded by Cat Stevens, and I doubt that he ever did a cover of it.
Listen to me:
My name is Jzero.
I am enough of a Cat Stevens fan that the nick I have been using for 10 years now is a character/title of one of his songs.

Perhaps people get confused because he DID have an album called "Cat's Cradle." Which was something of a compilation of his early works that was released in the 70s.

Funny, I've got a cat stevens mp3 of him singing cat's and the cradle.

Edit: Do a search in google, it seems to be his most popular MP3 out ther 😉
