"Alone" is a Pearl Jam song which originally appeared as a B-side on the "Go" single. "Alone" was originally a Ten outtake. Drummer Dave Abbruzzese gets writing credit for this song because it wasn't published until 1993 (when all members were getting equal credit), even though it was written a year before he joined the band.
A different version of "Alone" can be found on the Lost Dogs album. The music from this version is from the Ten Rough Mixes and is shorter than the "Go" single version. This version also has new vocals and slightly different lyrics.
After the band's April 17, 1994 show at the Paramount Theater, the song was not played for over ten years. The song finally made a return appearance at the band's September 29, 2004 show in Boston.
