    This is beautiful. It's officially my mother's birthday February 22. I lost her the beginning of this year. She lived a rough life and this song always made me think of her. She put the love of classic rock into my heart while growing up. Today is her first birthday after passing away, and I can't express how this song has touched my soul.

    I have a friend Kathleen whose late husband Jim was a HUGE Tom Petty fan and every time I hear this beautiful song it makes me think of how much Jim loved her and how all the sentiments in the song are things he would have wanted for Kathleen. And this is a beautiful rendition.

    I don’t know how I missed this song - and most of Tom Petty’s work - back in the day. Really. Fortunately, we watched the biopic about “Wildflowers” a couple of months ago. Since then I have played and sang a handful of his music. Probably done this song nearly every day.
    This group does a beautiful cover of this great song. Thank you for sharing it with we mere mortals. ❤

    Unbelievably beautiful. Such harmonies. What an arrangement. Beautifully orchestrated. I wonder why they are not more famous, and people worship those such as Taylor Swift when she clearly can't hold a candle to these ladies.

    I have nothing against Heather Masse but I do prefer Annabelle Chvostek bass harmonies and tone. And Cara Luft had very interesting compositions too, and great guitarist, as Annabelle, which plays fiddle and mandoline as well.
