Pearl Jam – “Jeremy” – 1992 – Mark Pellington – 13 Million+ Copies Sold
Pearl Jam’s basisst Jeff Ament and lead vocalist Eddie Vedder got together in 1992 as the former wrote the music for “Jeremy” while the latter came up with the lyrics for the third track on their debut album “Ten.” The single was inspired by and dedicated to a newspaper article Vedder came across which featured the story of high school student Jeremy Wade Delle’s suicide.
The song’s fame skyrocketed after the release of its video which contained a controversial suicide scene that was later censored and taken out from the edit. In September 2021, Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder gave his first live performance of solo “Long Way” at the Ohana Festival.
