"'Nearly Lost You'" is a song by the American alternative rock group Screaming Trees. It was the first single released in support of their sixth album, 'Sweet Oblivion'. Perhaps their best-known song, it was a moderate success on modern rock radio, partly because of its appearance on the soundtrack to the 1992 Cameron Crowe film 'Singles'.
