"The Last Goodbye" is a song by British girl group Atomic Kitten. It was composed by Daniel Poku, Espen Lind, Mikkel Storleer Eriksen, Tor Erik Hermansen, Hallgeir Rustan, and Peter Björkl and produced by Stargate for the band's second album Feels So Good (2002). The pop ballad was released as the third single from the album in 2003; in Ireland and the United Kingdom it was released as a double A-side with "Be with You". The song peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart in December of that year.
Two versions of the song were released; the version on their second album, Feels So Good (2002), and the single release. The album version features Natasha Hamilton on lead vocals on both the first and second versus, however on the single release, Liz McClarnon and Hamilton split the first verse, and the second verse is shared between Jenny Frost and Hamilton.
The song peaked at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart on its first week of release. It stayed on the chart for 12 weeks, and managed to sell 182,695 copies in the UK alone. It is Atomic Kitten's fifth-best-selling single there after "Whole Again", "The Tide Is High (Get the Feeling)", and "Eternal Flame". The song also was a top 10 hit in Ireland, and like the UK, was their fourth-best-selling single there.
