"The Last Goodbye" is a song by British girl group Atomic Kitten. It was written by Daniel Poku, Espen Lind, Mikkel Storleer Eriksen, Tor Erik Hermansen, Hallgeir Rustan, and Peter Björklund and recorded by the band for their second album Feels So Good (2002), while production of the song was overseen by Rustan, Eriksen and Hermansen under their under their production moniker Stargate. "The Last Goodbye" is built upon a flute motif and an acoustic guitar loop. Lyrically, the break-up song finds the trio thinking deeply over a relationship with their love interests from whom they parted.
The song was released as the third single from the album in November 2002 and became a top-20 hit in Austria, Denmark, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Portugal, Turkey, and the Wallonian region of Belgium. In Ireland and the United Kingdom, "The Last Goodbye" was released as a double A-single with the previously unreleased song "Be with You" and peaked at numbers five and two on the Irish and UK Singles Charts, respectively. An accompanying music video was directed by Jake Nava and filmed in Liverpool in October 2002. To further promote "The Last Goodbye", Atomic Kitten also recorded a Spanish version for the song, titled "Algun dia de adios".
