Rest in Peace (song)

1

"Rest in Peace" is a song by American rock band Extreme. It was released on August 24, 1992, as the first single from their third studio album, III Sides to Every Story (1992).

Music video

The original music video for the song was inspired by Norman McLaren's short film called Neighbours in which, instead of a flower, the neighbors fight over a TV set showing the band performing the song. The band was sued, but the controversy was quickly settled out of court. They later released a new version of the video, consisting only of the performance montage of the band on a white cyclorama which was displayed on the television set in the original video.

Chart performance

The song reached the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at No. 96. It topped Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart in November 1992. In the UK, the song charted at No. 13 on the UK Singles Chart.
