In 1998, Pearl Jam recorded "Last Kiss", a cover of a 1960s ballad made famous by J. Frank Wilson and the
Cavaliers. It was recorded during a soundcheck and released on the band's 1998 fan club Christmas single.
The following year, the cover was put into heavy rotation across the country. By popular demand, the cover
was released to the public as a single in 1999, with all of the proceeds going to the aid of refugees of the
Kosovo War.[12] The band also decided to include the song on the 1999 charity compilation album, No
Boundaries: A Benefit for the Kosovar Refugees. "Last Kiss" peaked at number two on the Billboard charts
and became the band's highest-charting single.
