As with all things in life, you always are sure you will have the time to do all the things your heart desires. I love Tom Petty and always thought I would see him “sometime”. That sometime never came because he was taken from us way too soon. I know all the folks reading this are probably younger than me…..don’t wait for that “sometime”
I feel the same……never put things off, you may not get another chance. Wish I’d learned that lesson when I was young, always thought I had plenty of time……..but the clock is always ticking !!!
I only got to see Tom Petty once and that was in 2015 when my hubby and I took our teenaged son & daughter. We had amazing floor tickets and my kids were just blown away with Tom and they knew all his songs as they grew up listening to classic rock. I wish I could've seen him at least one more time before he passed - I bawled the day he died as I felt like I had lost a friend...
Saw Tom in 2014, had a chance to see him in 2017 but wasn’t able to go. There was no next time. I’ll always remember where I was when the world received the terrible news. RIP Music Man.
When this concert was recorded, I was with my wife in Gainesville, she was undergoing a bone marrow transplant at Shands. At the time of this concert I didn't even hear anything about it, we were so caught up in the game of living or dying. It wasn't until just a few years ago that I ran across it. I only mentioned it to my wife a few days ago. When I told her about how we had missed this concert She kicked me in the shin HARD. We should have gone she yelled at me. I reminded her she was quite sick at the time, to which she replied I would have gotten well a lot sooner had I known Tom Petty was playing just a few blocks away. Obviously she beat her AML.
My wife is a two time beast cancer survivor 14 years apart. With hard work, luck and an amazing spirit, she is living a second chance life. Happy your incredible wife is doing well
I was Tom's neighbor back in the early 2000s. Super Kool dude. I was bringing in my garbage containers in one afternoon when I saw him walking his dog and he said, "Where's Chase? Chase was our Shitzu who unfortunately passed away recently, but was a hit in the community back then. Chase was that pet who always made a point to sniff, bark, pee, and poo and everyone's lawn on the street.😅
This whole concert was awesome &the documentary on the band was fantastic. As soon as it came out I ran out and bought it, but it's also sad just to think he's not with us anymore.
This concert was shot by famed director Peter Bogdonovich as part of a documentary he did on Petty called "Running Down a Dream." Well worth watching if you have not seen it. Petty's liife, from humble nobody in Gainesville Fla to international rock star, was truly remarkable and it was well covered by this film. One of the best rock star documentaries I have ever seen.
Wow! Thanks for the head's up, I hadn't heard about this. Yea, Peter Bogdonovich is famous for good reasons, he's very good at what he does. I'll have to find the docu and see how he puts it all together. Thanks again and keep on keepin on.
Amazing !!!!! The audience and performer became one beautiful spirit of unique unity. Miss you not breathing the same air that I breath Mr. Tom Petty , Rest in Peace .
Last year, my husband, knowing his time was shortened due to COPD, carved a sign and hung it in his workshop garage. When he passed away Feb 2021, I took it down and have it with me always. It said "Learning to Fly." Robbie, You've earned your wings...fly free, my love. Fly free.
Funny enough that I didn't cry as much when Tom Petty died in comparison to listening to this rendition of Learning to fly while reading your words. Hope you are coping with your loss.
Having Stevie Nicks as backup singer, sums it all for how good he was. Amazing song from an even more amazing artist. Hello from a far far away country.
Tom I miss you Thank you for coming to Bismarck on the Lost Cities Tour And thank you HeartBreakers for being there for him I am leaning to fly...and I will gain wings...😘
I loved Tom Petty so much, I listen to his SiriusXM channel all the time, it helps to see beautiful Tom and Stevie & I need comforting so much right now, my mom found her wings, less then two weeks ago, she is flying with the angels 😇 now. I miss her desperately & my poor papa misses his soulmate.❤
God I hope that man knew how much he was loved. Not that I knew him personally, but through his music I fell in love with the man. He had a way of singing right to your soul. Corny, yes, but that's how he made me feel. Still does. I feel his loss keenly, but he will live on forever in his music.
I was lucky to see him live. My friend got free tickets. She came and woke me up and said "We're going to see Tom Petty right now." It was a beautiful concert. Thank you, Tom.
Saw Tom Petty 1980ish in Austin, Texas at the Armadillo World Headquarters. If you never had the privilege, all concerts at the Armadillo were so affordable at that time because everyone came to Austin on their first tour and you could stand right up front by the stage and see the musicians up close, which was incredible. Tom Petty and the ❤breakers were magnificent from the start. I love the song “Refugee” and they played it , of course, because it was their big hit at the time. Pretty sure they came back through Austin not long after and I got to see Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers again. RIP dear Tom. You are loved by so so many. Thank you for all that you gave this world. ❤💙🌸🌷🌼🌺🌹🌻💐🪷🦋🧚♂️🍀⭐️🌊🏵️🎸🎸🎸🎹🥁💽💿📀💘💘💘☮️
Beautiful. Brings me close to tears no matter how many times I listen to this performance. He has the voice of a child, which somehow makes this all the more poignant. RIP Tom.
"Southern Accent" brings me tears unlike any other song Tom Petty does. It really hits a soft vulnerable spot in my heart. Losing Mr. Petty was a hard hit! R.I.P.
To be at a concert that captured that kind of magic is if you’re lucky happens once in your lifetime. I’m 76 and once at state college in San Francisco in the late 60’s the Chamber bros played ( Time ). This audience reminds me of that. It’s something you just can’t forget.
Yes people Tom Petty was the real deal loving rocker. I got my first chance to see Tom play in 2017 Ottawa Bluesfest. After so many years away from coming to our city. I'm so grateful to see the Heartbreakers for my first and only time Will miss hearing all those new tunes.But, won't stop listening to the old 🎶🎵🎼🎸♥R.I.P Tom. Rick from Ottawa
This gave me goosebumps, listening to everyone singing. Then they started clapping and getting louder, almost like they rehearsed this. That's when you know you're in sync with the crowd. So good.
This song reminds me of when I saw him in 2015 and I have a video of my 16 year old daughter & I singing this song along with the crowd. It still gives me chills to this very day whenever I hear the live version...
Almost every time we ask our Facebook communities for songs that have helped them through depression or a particularly hard time in life, someone brings up Tom Petty. No, music can’t cure a mental anguish or make hard times go away, but it certainly can help guide us through or at least provide moments of comfort. For many, Petty did this. As one friend put it, “He is the only musician I have ever listened to that made me feel like he was singing about my life.”
just found this. been a big Petty fan since way back. this is a beautiful version of this song. Acoustic. Slower pace. absolutely fine. damn I miss this guy. well, here we are two years later and this is still a masterpiece.
When I listen to this song it reminds me of my group of friends in high school back in the 1970s who ended up like me in the military. We all long for that place which gave us so my joy but WE all know that is gone and we will never share those great bonds again except in memories. In our tight circle of seven, there are only three of us left.😢
I'm sure it's been said, but to have tens of thousands sing your music to you - allowing you to back them up - had to have been a deeply gratifying experience for him.
I saw Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in Vancouver months before he died, not only was the second hand smoke worth it, the acoustic version of this song has stuck with me ever since. I don’t think this version is appreciated as much as it should be and perhaps that’s because he did it this way live and the radio only plays the album version. Man I wish I could see him live one more time, maybe it was meant to be this way. So sad, but makes me so happy I got to be there.
Was in the 6th row and sang every song and Tom was right there the whole time,so close you feel like you could reach out and touch him..Will always remember this special moment
Tom was before my time, during my time and he'll be after my time. True beauty will not be denied, and Petty and the heart breakers will transcend generations.
One thing about "before my time"..... The music lives on for everyone to enjoy. Never get stuck in generational music. I grew up with Elvis, moving on to Janis Joplin, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Beatles, The Great Tom Petty and continuing to love the Cure, Brian Fallon, Dave Matthews, and so many not mentioned. Favorite who I follow: Pearl Jam The music never stops.
Thank you Tom, thank you Heartbreakers. It's so great to hear this Song, especially from Gainsville 2006. I hear your music every day. We all miss you and the Heartbreakers.
It is damn near impossible to play guitar with a set of wings. The feathers muffle the strings and it's hard to "feather" a chord and have it sound decent. Holding on to a pick is very difficult as well and it usually ends up on the floor and then you have to start playing "feather style guitar".
I could listen to this over and over again. IMHO this was an above average recorded song that was elevated to something far more amazing live. What an experience for the audience!
I have nothing to say I just love it Stevie Nick's and Tom Petty Rest in peace He Shure did learn to fly He did fly over his troubles and worry's with music
Always loved Tom Petty...there's something about the man that brings out the goodness we have in us...Thank you Tom Petty for reaching out and connecting us all with your brilliant music...RIP Mr Petty...God Bless...
No one ever mentions what dandies they all were. Silk shirts, scarves, vests, blazers, cool hats. Such a difference from everyone else wearing t-shirts and jeans - not that there’s anything wrong with that. I just love seeing these videos, including shows I attended. TP and the Heartbreakers always had this elegant, rock n’ roll look and I loved it.
The legendary Tom Petty, this live performance was excellent and how the crowd just resonated with him, singing the chorus it simply shows how great an artist is, rest easy up there!!!
Wept when i heard that Fentynil was slipped to him. I know Jim Ladd, wept too. This gentle little song reminds us of his grace. Fly higher n higher. RIP Lux Aeterna. May the Light of God be upon you Tom Petty. ❤😢❤
RIP TP, This performance is magical,mystical,brilliant...Thank You TP Life broke my heart and stole my crown. ty tom petty...song of my youth.. fly with the angels
I’m lucky to have seen Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers in Tampa 6 yrs ago. What an honest artist. His music will enlighten and inspire forever. RIP Tom Petty 🙏🏼✌️💪❤️😎
The thing about Tom Petty live is how he enjoyed performing so much. He did that when I saw him in Irvine, California in the 90s. Nothing but a big fat smile on his face the whole time. He spread that great energy out to the crowd.

Obviously she beat her AML.
I loved reading your comment. Someone I used to know just passed away from cancer this comment made me chuckle 😂
Going through it now, cheers!

I can't think of any other band that sounds this good in concert. Top shelf musicians all the way around
And Stevie Nicks on backing vocals...what a bless!

The audience deserves an ovation as well, they were in perfect time with Tom.
They always are. 😎
I was there and it was a special moment in life singing with Tom and the crowd.😎👍
A brilliant performance by all. ❤
It’s true….the audience was on the beat; they usually aren’t
One of my favorite parts of this song.. can close my eyes and almost feel like I'm there... ❤
Damn, the world sucks without you Tom😢😢
For real 😢
Yes it does
That's right. But I listen to his songs whenever I can, and then he's with me...
yes it does.....
Agreed
The pure and absolute joy of an artist connected to his audience. Live music at its best, by one of the best ever.
Very well said
😊
When the audience reacts like this, you know the singer/artist has tapped into the soul of the audience. This was awesome!

Sorry for your loss 😢
Damn, something is in my eyes
Simplistic and sooo beautiful!!! I'm a 70"s girl. Hard to impress me with new songs!!! This one did!!❤😊
Bless u girl,nice taste 👍🎼🎼❤️❤️🤟🤟
This was played at my friend's funeral last year. This exact live version and it was so emotional and beautiful.
What a wonderful piece to remember someone. I’m so sorry about your friend.
Perfect choice.
I want this exact version at whatever service my family decides to have after I pass as well. I LOVE it.
I am sorry about your friend! When i go to rest I would like this to be played as well! This and music IS my church. This IS fellowship. ❤️
R.I.P. to your friend. Was this his or her favorite song?
Having Stevie Nicks as backup singer, sums it all for how good he was. Amazing song from an even more amazing artist. Hello from a far far away country.
No shit.. She's world class too, and she respected the man so much, she became his backdrop and let him shine. Impressive stuff.
Tom
I miss you
Thank you for coming to Bismarck on the Lost Cities Tour
And thank you HeartBreakers for
being there for him
I am leaning to fly...and I will gain wings...😘
They had a good song together.
Yep.🙃
knowing dont come around here was written about stevie nicks ex and tom petty doing instead makes it even better

Tom, I'm sure you're flying now, and you certainly earned those beautiful wings. We miss you so much.
When he sings " I'll fly over Milwaukee" The longing in Toms voice is heart wrenching.
God I hope that man knew how much he was loved. Not that I knew him personally, but through his music I fell in love with the man. He had a way of singing right to your soul. Corny, yes, but that's how he made me feel. Still does. I feel his loss keenly, but he will live on forever in his music.
He did know that is why he kept on preforming even when he was not feeling well because he knew his fans loved him and he didn't want to let them down
I enjoy Ben's piano playing
I was lucky to see him live. My friend got free tickets. She came and woke me up and said "We're going to see Tom Petty right now." It was a beautiful concert. Thank you, Tom.
I was lucky to have seen him on two occasions, 1982 in Edinburgh and 1993 in Glasgow.
2010 at the Hollywood Bowl ❤
I want to hug him. His so good and maybe somewhere up there I’ll meet all this legends❤

One of my favorite Tom Petty songs. This live version with the crowd singing is truly special. Petty was a true gift.
This is just exceptional.
It's not a concert
Its an out-of-body experience
This song saves my soul every time I hear it. RIP Petty.. ty for all the soul saving songs you gave me. xo

This live version is amazing. Wow. Breathtaking. Tom Petty is so great live.
oh, yes...so amazing....
Was in the 6th row and sang every song and Tom was right there the whole time,so close you feel like you could reach out and touch him..Will always remember this special moment
Really this should have millions of views. Jesus.
Its our work to make that happen
Another account posted the same video and it has close to 20 million views
I just pasted this on to all my very special ones I hope the take the time to appreciate it. So so Great!!!
Yesssss
True.!
Wonderful musician. Incredible version. Rest in Peace. 🇧🇷
That's why he's one of the greats his voice just hits you deep miss the Heartbreakers
Tom was before my time, during my time and he'll be after my time. True beauty will not be denied, and Petty and the heart breakers will transcend generations.
One thing about "before my time"..... The music lives on for everyone to enjoy. Never get stuck in generational music.

Ladies and gentlemen, the voice of absolute freedom and the celebration of life..Mr. Tom Petty.
The BEST version of Learning To Fly on You Tube....How many rockers had Stevie Nicks begging to sing harmony "in the back"??
This is the best version of this song RIP Tom and I love that Stevie was there too!!!!!! This version will be played when I pass!!!!!
I could listen to this over and over again. IMHO this was an above average recorded song that was elevated to something far more amazing live. What an experience for the audience!

I have nothing to say I just love it

Hi Joseph, how are you doing today
Live music was Tom's thing. The difference between studio recordings is night and day. The man could leave a crowd wishing the show never ended.
That true…….a wonderful live show every time from Tom & The Heartbreakers.
I miss concerts like this.
RIP TP, This performance is magical,mystical,brilliant...Thank You TP
What a great song by Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers !!! 👩🐕🐈🐎🌹🌺🌻🌼🌷

This song always brings tears of joy whenever I hear it....Tom was a great musician!
The very essence of how connected the Heartbreakers were as a live band . RIP Tom!
RIP Tom! Thanks for the music! Say "hi" to Elvis for me. He played that guitar too.
He was just amazing. His music got me thru some tuff times in my life.
Life broke my heart and stole my crown.

The thing about Tom Petty live is how he enjoyed performing so much. He did that when I saw him in Irvine, California in the 90s. Nothing but a big fat smile on his face the whole time. He spread that great energy out to the crowd.
LIFE WILL BEAT YOU DOWN ...... RIP TOM PETTY !! God Bless and Keep !
