Lyrics:
Well, she was standing by the highway
In her boots and silver spurs
Gonna hitchhike to the yellow moon
When a Cadillac stopped for her
And she said, "Hey, nice to meet you
Are you goin' my way?"
Yeah, that's when it happened
The world caught fire that day
And she went down swingin'
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Well, she was over twenty-one
In trouble with the law
And it didn't faze her none
She called her mother-in-law
And said "I need a little money
I know I can count on you
After that night in Vegas
And the hell that we went through"
We went down swingin'
Like Benny Goodman
Yeah, we went down swingin'
Yes, we did
Moonlight on the interstate
She was 'cross the Georgia line
Looked out the window feeling great
Yeah, it had to come in time
And she said, "I'm never going back"
She said, "At last, I'm free
I wish Ma could see me now
She'd be so proud of me"
She went down swingin'
Like Glenn Miller
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Like Tommy Dorsey
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Like Sammy Davis
She went down swingin'
Like Sonny Liston

![Tom Petty - It's Good To Be King [Official Music Video]](/img/tr.png)
The thing about Tom Petty is, unlike pretty much EVERYONE else who hangs onto their musical career for more than a decade, his music never lost it's raw, authentic quality. It never became formulaic, flat, safe, or lifeless. For the most part, the music from every stage of his career is as enjoyable as any other stage. Seriously, who else can you say that about?
SC Beatty - You hit the nail on the head. So true.
Amen dude. Not only is it that, Tom Petty has influenced or had some kind of noted influence on nearly every rock and roll, hard rock, metal, heavy/thrash metal, and grunge band that formed from the 80's-Present. He's even influenced a massive amount of Country artists/bands as well.
Tom Petty was indeed great. You will get no argument from me there. However there are several others who have left behind( and who are still alive as well) a large body of work which did change with the times. I have broadened my taste in music quite a bit over the past few years and I have discovered many artists that I wish I had not been so close minded as to not discover them years ago! I like rock, I like country, I like some pop music Etc... But most of all I like any music where the poet / songwriter puts his / her heart and soul into their music and has a message in it. Or a Feeling in it that almost anyone can relate to in some way.
I wrote an article about this particular video which I thought was a masterpiece :). May get it recognized... not important. What pissed me off the most in the episode where the heroines lover is falling to his death is the utter, criminal spectator sport it was for the people around the pool below. Cheers, loved your post!
This particular video fascinated me for a vr long time, not because it was more moving emotionally than his other work but for its complexity. As a video it packs a big punch. I read something from a thoughtful poster who thought Jackson Browne was more cerebral -- watch this and that argument falls apart, as much as I respected the writer. I thought about it for days and days -- he could do anything, and yes, still wish he were still here with his love on his arm. The way of the world.
Tom doesn’t get mentioned enough as one of the all-time great lyricists. Just so clever, witty, and poignant.
Agree he fought the music industry and won good for him
He would be on the American Songwriter Mt. Rushmore with Dylan (who’s greatly overrated) Bruce, Townes and John Prine (then for purists switch out Zimmerman for Steve Earle)
Where do you live . Everyone who likes Tom petty knows that
The man was just absolute class
are you high lol
This gentleman is one of the most important figures in all of American music, enough said.
Tom Petty and the heartbreaker's are like American wallpaper. The have always been there.
@@Noblesavage77I didn't realize how deep he was in my head until he died.
Amen
Absolute american treasure
the first A.I. comment on a Petty vid
A Florida Boy becomes a national treasure. And he went down swinging.
Several of um has brother. 😢😢😢😢
National treasure and his legend will grow. What a writer
Amen and God bless !
So sayeth the PETE!
Yes, he did!
This is one of Petty's most beautiful songs ever made.
+Michael Bartholomew Agree!
MOVIE STAR CARS Gaming ya m still listening now
he has so many
MOVIE STAR CARS Gaming And he has a boatload!
MOVIE STAR CARS Gaming I love all his songs.. He's the man.. Been listening to Tom , since,I've been a,teenager lol
One of the greatest musicians of all time. Tom is sorely missed but his music will live forever.
Omg seriously. LOVE THIS SONG
Missing your voice in the world today, Tom.
Indeed..
Every time I hear a Tom Petty song, I smile. His music was the soundtrack to my most formative years. Thanks Tom. You are missed.
Well said 👍
Yes.
Rest in Peace Tom.

I have watched this video hundreds of times. I truly never noticed some of the details until today. RIP Tom, you went out swingin'
Yes, he did. My favorite song
I thought at first she couldn't have survived the crash and must have been a ghost. But this time I saw her using her arms to keep her head away from the top of the car as it fell, and saw that the other people in the diner reacted to her and the cat (aside from Tom Petty, who is privileged because it's his song). So I guess it's supposed to be real.
Love this song, love this video. Maybe because I'm a cat guy...
Plus one, friend.
The Whole album is grossly underrated and overlooked
There will never be another Tom Petty
This song is a masterpiece. Great story, awesome playing. This guy was a legend. Still is!!
Why do so many legendary artist die early and of their own demise?
What's amazing is the number of interpretations of this song. Actually that is a sign of great art - That it can mean so many different things to different people.
@Chieflywaze brilliant artists and song writers go hand in hand with struggles with mental illness.
@@Chieflywazebecause life is hard to tolerate
TOM PETTY'S DAD BEAT HIM AND PUT HIM DOWN ON A DAILY BASIS...🖤
Songwriting doesn't get any better than this. Period.
period!
Tells a complex, nuanced story in a few minutes. You’re right. It doesn’t get better. He is sorely missed, but oh, what gifts he left us.
🤟
You are so correct! One of rock n rolls best songwriters ever!
No it doesn't. He's sorely missed by this individual but he'll always live on cause music never dies. It's set in stone after that. R.I.P. Tom Petty. You were in a class all by yourself. 😥🙏
I like to think Tom Petty went down swingin. He was a legend in his own time and through his music he will be a legend forever.
I always thought Tom Petty was the coolest guy on earth..on top of being one of the best songwriters and musicians of all time. Now he is the coolest guy in heaven
Love!
My little brother Nino died from a heroin overdose on Aug 14th 2019 .. He was an accompliced musican ... he sent me a cover of this song on the day he passed away ...still cry every I hear this song😎
Well stated. I agree.
GREATLY missed AND gone too soon! Kept performing after a sustained injury???? WHY???? why didn't his agent say "NO more shows til you heal up"...gah!
This has the sound of something Bob Dylan wishes that he wrote.
So good, love his voice, those guitars , the lyrics . He absolutely accomplished what he came to earth to do, and we all benefited because he was here. ❤
RIP TP and Howie. The Legendary Heartbreakers
Couldn't agree more.
Amen!!
Their most underrated song, its just badass music man.
His music is/was timeless. R.I.P.
agree
And the most underrated album. Good for us.
From the most underrated musician ever!
Right you are!
This was the song that came to my mind when I read he had died today. Goodbye, Tom; you will never be replaced.
Timothy P after that night in Vegas and the hell we went through
me too damn he was a badass
I thought of the line "the world got still" I noticed his family thought of that line too in their press release. :( what a loss.
it was the first song I thought of, seems to me he liked this song more than most of his fans
He went down SINGIN'
One for the ages - just can't touch Petty on a song like this. Just golden.
⚘🌹
You are so right my brother
My mom and business partners went to HS with Tom at Gainesville high- crazy fact: 3 members of the rock n roll hOF in 1 HS graduating class(tom/ david Crosby(CrosbyStillsNash) and Don Felder (Eagles). Crazy
my nephew posted it on FB last week....SUCH a great old song....
@@Gatorbeaux Felder was Tom’s guitar teacher for a bit there too
Okay....when Joe Cocker died, it felt like a friend died. Sad, sad, sad. But when Tom died it felt like a part of my life had died. I adore his lyrics. He made them for and about us. This is my favourite song and it comes woth my favourite video. No day without a Petty song 😍😍😍🎶🎶🎶
TP wrote this at a very difficult, painful time in his life, which makes this song even more amazing to me. You went down rocking, sir.
Tom has that unique combo of artistic integrity without being pretentious. He seems like a genuinely good guy that makes music for all the right reasons. I love how organic and pure all his music sounds.
nicely said. A true gem
He’s been with me and in me and beside me for a long long long time..in theses 74 yrs of mine! So much joy and so much connected emotions……..made life a joy, in many ways! 🐐
Tom Petty was a class act...
I completely agree.
Tom Petty is absolutely timeless
I’m basically paraphrasing all of the other comments here when I say his music was the soundtrack for a generation. Folks my age have a Tom Petty song for every stage of our lives. RIP
I listen to this song everyday and sometimes more than once. Just saying I love this song and I love and miss Tom so much.
I watch this video several times a week. Great song and video.
Yeah I know what you mean cause I can relate
Amen.
Right with you, my friend.
Tom Petty always was always there. 70’ radio when I was a kid in my dad’s truck with “Breakdown” and “Refugee”. And early MTV with “Stop Draggin My Heart Around” and “Don’t Come Around Here.”
Then MTV was huge and there was Petty as the cat in the hat, the Wilbury’s or on tour as Dylan’s band. Damn.
And it just kept going into the 90’s with the one two punch of “Full Moon Fever” and “Into the Great Wide Open” followed by the single “Mary Jane’s Last Dance.”
He was always there. Great music. So good live. That Souther drawl and easy smile. And the beautiful music: tight hooks and every song it’s own story.
I liked that he was there. I liked the world with Tom Petty in it; the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame sublime “While My Guitar Gently Weeps.”
This song with its melancholy shuffle and the video’s angles guts me. The hat is in a closet somewhere, his scarfs stashed away. I feel a knot in my stomach.
Tom Petty is not in the world any more. And I won’t ever see him live again or read about he’s newest album coming out.
I miss him. The world is a beautiful place. Truly beautiful. But it was a better place when he was here too.
Tom Petty went down swinging and we all still miss him! (RIP)
Saw Tom at Red Rocks this past summer. I had a feeling leading up to the show that they would play Swingin, but I knew it was wishful thinking because it's such a rarity.. Ironically, a freak rain storm came out of nowhere and interrupted the show mid-set. Tom came back on stage after a 30 minute delay and immediately rewarded us with a Swingin. I've been to hundreds of concerts and it was one of the best moments I'll ever remember. Thank you Tom! RIP czcams.com/video/uN_z3_ZuiBU/video.html
Great story
That video is on CZcams! Classic.
Scott Valent wow great live recording!!
One of the great regrets of my life is that I didn't go to that show.
@@sabrinafree I hate that feeling, definitely missed some last chance shows over the years. Gotta love the live recordings on CZcams though!
Love me some Tom Petty everyday, when I go I'm down Swingin
I heard this song in 1999 and it became my favorite Tom Petty song got to see him live in Kansas City Missouri in 1980 and 1981
Like millions of others, no one has had more fans of his music than Tom Petty, we all grieve for the loss of such and amazing talent and human being, Rest In Peace old friend.
I my opinion Tom was the coolest guy ever. Going to be missed tremendously
Amen
It's so sad he won't be making anymore music. His music has followed me from school, college to uni, from marriage to children. He has been with me all through my life and I'm 45 on Monday. Such talent is timeless and has an emotional quality. I can put times, people and places to all of his work. God bless you man x
I have listened to Tom since I was 5! I am 45 today. And you are right! My whole life was about Tom! It is hard to live without him today! RIP to the Greatest Legend of All Time!!! I love you Tom!!
If there is an afterlife, Tom Petty would smile & thank you for your expression of pure gratitude. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, their music & songs influenced you, me & a lot of people. Best wishes...
I feel the same way. He's been there during every stage of my life.
He's been in my life, always, I was there in the beginning, first Vynil and 8track, I'm almost his age!😢
You wrote some damn good Songs, Mr. Petty. Very thankful for all of it. RIP, Sir.
I can't stop listening to this, "SWINGIN". The guitars are literally resonating with each other. It's beautiful. It's beyond cool. The resonating sound penetrates mind and soul. And of course the words give anybody who listens a sense of inner strength---it powers your spirit.
Your comment about this song Swinging nailed it. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers were the best. Back in the day they toured with Bob Dylan. That says it all...
It’s hard to pull away from
This is my favorite Tom song. That’s the thing about him he wasn’t a couple of hits and that’s all. He had many gigantic hits but some of his best stuff was not the big hits.
Swinging,Southern Accents, Wildflowers, Crawling Back to You
I say the same thing. People who only hear Tom's radio material are missing out on his BEST stuff.
Damn, Tom Petty's music just hits the spot.
Tom Petty always had a song that applied to what was happening in my life. Many memories with this song. Thanks and RIP.
I cannot express how much I love Tom Petty. He is one of those soundtrack artists of my life AND a founding father of music videos. Hell, he was making videos before there was MTV.
Amy Leach to be honest alot of artists made videos before mtv not just TP & the heartbreakers
Don't Come Around Here No More was the best video (to me anyway) and it was made before MTV in the late-70's. He had the trademark hippie-style shades with the lavender top hat and coat-and-tails. He showed his contempt for women (and it works both ways) in relationships trying to manipulate their way back into it (the relationship) and he used the woman in the video to look like Alice In Wonderland because she represented someone living in a fantasy world who thinks that way. Him and the great Scottish singer-songwriter Dave Stewart from The Eurythmics wrote that one. He will be greatly missed after passing from this world at 66.
hear hear! Me too

@@ben-ladenbernanke5374 late 70s? It was late 80s
Hurts tonight, man! So glad I lived during this time, and Tom's a big part of the reason why. The emotion that his songs rose in me ... and still does ...
Ya. Still can't believe it. Lots of people getting into his music now as a result. Will be sorely missed. One of the best.
Amen brother
Tom Petty FUCKIN WENT DOWN SWINGIN like TOM PETTY! FUCK I MISS HIS SOUL!!!
Tom was one of a kind. Can't see anybody filling his shoes.
RIP. One of the greatest song writers. Always got me through tough times.
After that night in Vegas
And the hell that we went through
We went down....swingin
Like Tom Petty
Travis Boley you said it man. He truly went down swinging!
I played this song earlier and sang that at the end. Almost teared up while playing.
One of his all time best. That man will be so missed.
Totally.
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers at their finest. I will always have you in my heart Tom forever
After the mass shooting in Las Vegas last night and Tom Petty's death, the line "after that night in Vegas... and the hell that we went through" is as chilling as it could be.
Rest in Peace.
holy crap.... I guess...crazy.
This music video was in August 1999, and now its October 2017. The entire song and video for Tom Petty's Swinging is a strange prophecy of what would happen to the poor victims of Las Vegas and to poor Tom Petty :( . Its very similar to the song and video of Chris Cornells nearly forget about my broken heart. These artists always write songs and make videos that might describe how they are feeling about life, about the world in general, oh well god bless everyone
That's literally the first thing that popped into my head when I heard the news.
I know its strange right? :( Tom Petty singing about some poor girls troubles and this video was so beautifully done, its about Las Vegas, fate and circumstance, some guy she hooks up with gets into a fight with the FBI or police over money and hes tossed out a hotel window and she later survives a car crash on the highway and the angels are looking down from heaven at a cafe where Tom Petty is singing, SWINGING is exactly how Tom Pettys musical legacy will be and SHOULD BE remembered: he went out swinging like a real American pop culture icon and musical hero to millions :) god bless Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers .
I thought about the concept that Las Vegas tragedy and Tom's cardiac arrest came within hours of each other....coincidence????Tom is in a better place
'Love the reference to Glenn Miller, great swing band leader, who went down in a WW2 plane crash.
Everyone he referred to had been dead.
As a Lindy Hopper, I love the references in this song. Glenn Miller being my favorite
One thing I noticed about Petty's music is what I call the wandering pronoun -- different shifting perspectives in a structured musical format that lets us all in to use our imaginations and identify with important emotional moments...... My mum eg would LOVE the reference to Glen Miller. Tommy Dorsey etc. Tx for great observation!
Love how he just sits there with his legs on the table. Love all his music
Something about his music is pure magic. Always been a masterpiece...
Tom petty has been a force to be reckoned with by the music establishment. he's one of my all-time favorite artists. I view him as talented as Bob Dylan and Neil Young, but with a southern flavor
well said
...but with better melodies.
Perhaps, but Dylan was probably a better poet.
Hapax007 - yeah maybe but TP could sing.
tom and dylan were great friends, Traveling Wilburys is some of the best supergroup music there is between Roy Orbison Jeff Lynne Bob Dylan George Harrison and Tom Petty and no one really shined more than the other they just had fun and wrote great music.
This is my all time favorite Tom Petty song. Never thought I'd have one growing up since the 80s listenin' to him with my mom for the first time. Never heard one I didn't like but Swingin just hits every sweet spot a Petty song possibly could.
Went down swinging,just as you finished your 40th anniversary tour.How ironic yet poetic. RIP Tom Petty
I miss Tom Petty
Echo is one of Tom Petty's most underrated album ever ....it's one of my personal favorites .
Yes. Petty was going through a divorce when Echo was made.
Patricia Hammond me too ✌️✌️✌️
Echo is great, but i have to be in a sad mood to listen to it. She’s The One is another great underrated album.
Several critics underrated it and in Conversations with Tom Petty, Paul Zollo I was so happy his 2nd wife Dana sat him down in his car and made him listen to his music when he was at a nadir of self-criticism -- way to go Dana no words so won't waste them.
@@eddieupchurch6724 I was writing away and did lots of research natch and I've never read a bio (Warren Zane) that left me feeling more helpless sad admiring you name it. His daughter thought Wildflowers was the real divorce album - i saw Echo as a breakdown he survived and turned a corner in his life like Dante standing at the gates of hell in a forest looking for the trees uncanny.
One of my all time favorite songs by Tom. Overlooked but just one of a ton of great songs written by an American Master. A lot of people don't realize what a prolific songwriter he was. He is a true Icon of American Rock n Roll. Rest easy my friend........You will be missed by many.
tom you rock stevo
Finally able to watch this once again without feeling super sad. Thanks, Thomas Earl Petty for making beautiful, lyrical and meaningful music for all those years. We miss you bad!!!
In those little moments, in the car, working in the yard, sitting on the deck humming and singing along to Tom Petty let's me know that his spirit and his music has left an indelible impression upon me and that spirit will never truly die.
This has become one of my favorites bbg y Tom put on some good headphones 🎧.
Fuck...how come guys like this need to be takin before their time?
Rock in peace TP, you will be missed more than you'll ever know.
I'm fortunate to have seen him and the Heartbreakers live in Reno . Gone way too soon.....
I think everyone needs to hear this song today. Chins up. This just made me feel. If he appeared and had a message to share with us I’d like to think that it’s right here. Rock and roll will never die and a song never forgets.
Love You Tommy and Howie 😢❤😅
RIP🙏🌹💝💐☮️🌍
Absolutely awesome song!, I've always liked Tom Petty, for decades. For some reason these last few months I've been completely intrigued by his life and career. He was a fighter that grabbed life by the balls and took his greatness. He wasn't gonna wait for someone to "give it to him" he took it!
So true. I listen to Tom every chance I get. His story is amazing.
This is one of my favorite songs by him. Everyone needs to listen to running down a dream. That one is my favorite.
My biggest regret in life will be never seeing him live in concert. Probably my first MTV exposure. In love ever since. Badass to the max. RIP Tommy
I can't go a day without my Tom Petty fix.
When shit isn't right I turn to this song. Echo is a great record and something in this song gets right to my soul and the healing begins.
Then sadness sets in because Tom is no longer with us and that hurts a lot. He/ They left us with so much great music that we know it was real and honest. There's a comfort in that and there will never be another Tom Petty in my life time. I'm just glad I got to know his music and story.
The word ICON is used way to much these days for undeserving people but Tom was a true ICON.
RIP TOM... TIL WE CROSS PATHS ON THE OTHER SIDE, I'LL KEEP SWINGIN'
yay for daily fixes and healing. where's the tribute band?!?
I keep sirius on Tom Petty. Obsessed with this one at the moment
A perfect video to end my evening at 2 am.RIP buddy you will forever be in my ❤
"Swingin'....like Benny Goodman...." wish I could write lines like that. Great song by one of the best damn rock bands evahhh!
Am I the only one who gets chills watching this video? Especially at the end?
Awesome video!
I get Goosebumps too!
NO PAUL, NO SOS EL UNICO
I get goosebumps every time i hear this song!
I get the chills through the entire video.
Absolutely, positively, no doubt about it, favorite Tom Petty song. Or at least neck and neck with Southern Accent! Miss you Tom.
I agree they're both great. I relate to Southern Accent and it's been my favorite for a long time but Swingin is right up there too.
Southern Accents is one of the most beautiful songs ever written in the history of the world. I'm not even from the south and it gets me every time.
Belongs among the best songs TP wrote. I've been listening to it daily for weeks.
Perhaps the best album they ever put out. We lost him two years ago today. It still stings. Saw him twice. Late 70s and in 99. Always humble and thankful to the fans.
Miss Tom something rotten. He was a musical genius. Brilliant writer and beautiful soul.
The image of Tom just leanin' back, boots on the table, playin' the harp is so cool. And Swingin' is among my favorite songs of his.
The World Loves & Misses You
Tom
5 / 9 /19
My favorite Petty song of all time :) My life wont feel complete without seeing him play live just once
My fav live show :)
he rocked at lockn last year!
Tatiana - Even w/o Howie & Stan, the Heartbreakers & TP put on the best of live shows. Professional & on-point every time I've seen them over the last 30 years. I promise that you won't be disappointed.
tommorow nite in the Burgh
seen him with JACKSON BROWNE IN 2005. NASHVILLE
RIP TOM PETTY who with the Florida born Heartbreakers were one of the Greatest of All SOUTHERN ROCK BANDS.
1stSaintsFan No, the
Greatest Rock Star songwriter singer of ALL TIME WORLDWIDE
@@markschroeder1855 damn right
Tom's music has been there my whole life. Still listen to him daily. Rest easy good sir. Thank you for amazing songs to create amazing memories to
What a hidden gem from TP! This man wrote my life. Missing you Tom. What an amazing cast, acting, and casting.. Should be on the list of greatest videos of all time.. IMO no shit...
Went Down Swingin......Like Sonny Liston.......RIP Tom Petty
Liston took a pay day and took a dive against Ali
Well, she was standing by the highway
In her boots and silver spurs
Gonna hitchhike to the yellow moon
When a Cadillac tried for her
And he said, "Hey, nice to meet you...are you goin' my way?"
Yeah that's when it happened
The world caught fire that day
And she went down(down)
swingin'
Yeah, she went down (down)
swingin'
Well she was over twenty-one
In trouble with the law
And it didn't faze her none
She called her mother-in-law
And said I need a little money
I know I can count on you
After that night in Vegas
And the hell that we went through
We went down, swingin'
Like Benny Goodman
Yeah we went down, swingin'
Yes we did
(Mike Campbell - Six String Storytelling)
Moonlight on the interstate
She was 'cross the Georgia line
Looked out the window feeling great
Yeah it had to come in time
And she said I'm never goin' back
She said at last I'm free
I wish ma could see me now, she'd be so proud of me
She went down swingin'
Like Glenn Miller
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Like Tommy Dorsey
Yeah, she went down swingin'
Like Sammy Davis
She went down swingin'
Like Sonny Liston
LifeBloodMarketing damn thanks. Genius badass
It's "when a Cadillac stopped for her" not "tried"
Tom Petty is THE quintessential American bard, singer, songwriter, showman. He is us in song.
This man was so brilliant he was famous as far as my homeland Greece🇬🇷, I bought his CDs and he became a legend for me too just like he was to the whole world, my playlist is full with his songs and my CZcams visits include him always. Rest In Peace my dear friend, thank you for your amazing songs💙
No doubt my favourite TP song play it al the time, been a fan since 1976 and will be forever
1976 ROCKS! Great memories.
Jeez! What a great track!! How did I miss that all these years? Damn!
So many people are just now seeing what a truly great artist this man and the Heartbreakers really were. That's a good thing for music.
This song really tugs my heartstrings !!! Omg !! It makes my cry every time I hear it !!
Lyrics are amazing. Sonny Liston? Unreal. RIP Tom. You were one of the best.
This is my favorite Tom Petty song, and he has some great ones.
Tom Genial
And he went down....Swinging yes he did
COULD TOM LOOK ANY BETTER?! WOW. GORGEOUS MAN. I MISS YOU!!!!! R.I.P.
So gorgeous, beautiful eyes, beautiful soul.
The best musician to ever live in my opinion. This is real music that actually means something, and fans can relate to Tom Petty because he was so down to earth. RIP Tom
One of the greatest feelings I've ever had, was watching Tom stop singing, and listening to the crowd pick up right where he left off, didn't matter if it was a gigantic stadium show or a smaller version like Red Rocks, the look of utter joy on his face, while he had 40,000, or 300,000 people sing his songs, you could tell how how happy he was, I saw him over a dozen times at Red Rocks, in my younger days, always, always ,always my favorite show of the summer season, sure do miss him, 🎩🎸💘
I regret never seeing him live! So sad that he is gone. I Listen to his songs over and over...I WONT BACK DOWN has helped me to go forward more than once. ❤
Tom always came to Saratoga Springs NY to our outdoor theater. Great shows. It wasn't summer if Tom wasn't there.
" damn you people are gonna' put me out of a job."
My 1st time seeing him live was at the June Jam at Atlanta Motor Speedway in 1983 I was 2 weeks overdue with my 1st daughter so security put me next to stage where all the artist went on and off. He said "Hey little momma"
@@robinharrington4086 oh my gosh what a great line he used to say, with a giant smile on his face, and a huge response from the crowd, he loved us all so 🎩💘🎸
I miss Tom so much !!! It's hard to accept the fact that all of the greatest bands on earth reach their end ,, but thank God we still have their music !!!! RIP TOM
You'll never find anyone better. Seen him several times. Not one time was it not an absolute great great time. Miss you Tom
Here's to you Mr. Petty. Gone but never forgot. One of the very best in the music business.
Man, I never tire of listening to this guy. Thank you Tom Petty for music that will last forever!
One of the last true songwriter/rockers. RIP Tom.
One year has past since you left us Tom. We miss you but your music will play on forever.
