My husband and I would play this song, every Friday night before we went out to our favorite beach bar. He died this week. The day after, I was standing in line at the Target pharmacy, waiting to pick up a prescription.This song came on. I don't remember ever hearing music in Target before. I think this was his way of contacting me. We were married 58 years.
It is possible for sure....There was a connection of some kind going on there. I'm sorry you lost your husband. 58 years!! You are luckier than most but take that and 50 cents and it still won't get ya a cup of coffee right?
My dad loved Tom Petty. He died a few years ago. One of the roughest years of my life by far. Love you dad, and thanks for influencing my taste of music! ❤❤
Awesome! First concert my husband & I took our sons to was Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. They cherish that memory & so do we! Keep blasting your music!
Since the first time I heard it and ever since!!! I'm 70 the end of this mo. and listen to Sir Tom whenever I listen to any music, which is almost daily!
absolute truth ... fortunate to see two concerts as Tom's health began to fade === beyond ethereal unbridled brilliance ... Eternal Blessings Tom - a massive void exists filled with Heartbreaker Memories !!!
This is possibly one of the GREATEST guitar solos ever played in a live concert! Mike Campbell simply shreds that guitar solo, amazing artistry! Tom Petty was one of the great ones, RIP.
Oh yeah......this and Mark Knopflers' solo on Telegraph Road live (around 1987) along with David Gilmours' Comfortably Numb solo live at Pompeii I can listen to daily and never tire of hearing. Campbell, Knopfler and Gilmour at the absolute peaks of their respective careers.
Gainsvilles own Tom Petty! Its clear that Ole Tom loved Rock & Roll and playing for his fans. He,ll be sorely missed. We folks in Fla miss him extremely!! And a Great Dude!!!! RIP Tom P.❤❤❤😢
Been there..copper's running us down...no no..out ran them many times..Jason Australia..twin turbo Nissan motor sport....300k passing raders on highway... faster than twin porsche turbo..they're still finishing dongnuts....every night...
Yeah, this song is made for a fast driving car. (Even better if it's a brand new one and this is the first CD/Selection ever played in that brand new car!)
Michael Campbell is just about perfect on every Petty song... One of the best lead guitarists ever, because he played for the song, not for his own ego. His guitar was never about showing off... just filling in all the blanks in beautifully written songs with full color!
Petty always very clear in his interviews of the importance of his partnership with Mike Campbell to his work. Even when Petty did solo recordings, he generally had Mike with him.
A band is only good as it sounds live in concert. This is my absolute favorite performance. I always cry at the end because I know how his final story ends. A part of the world died when Tom Petty drew his last breath. RIP you beautiful man. You went out on top.
He passed away from heart disease by medicating himself because he would not take time off to have his knee surgically replaced. A disservice to his fans, his family and his little granddaughter.
That is the only thing that matters is being alive and contributing to the good of it all , and nobody has been able to do that better than the Legend that will Always be Tom Petty and rather have a few smiles in his honor than crying because he left to wander....So wherever they have gone the best thing to do is crank every single song and the rest is my kind of PEACE ☮️☯️💟
I’m 72 years old I’ve been dancing since I was two years old, ballet and tap and all through my life. I was very lucky to have 70 years of wonderful music. I’ll miss it dancing with my life even if I was on the dance floor by myself I didn’t care.
The band was "Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers", but Mike Campbell made that song come alive...a song where the lead guitarist earns his money. I'll bet now that Tom is gone, that song means more to Mike, because he helped Tom run down his dream. RIP Tom, Thanks for the memories!
Tom Petty one of the great ones. He always made it look so effortlessly when he played. I listened to him in my teens and I am now in my late 60s. Amazing talent RIP Mr. Tom Petty. Gone to soon but never forgotten ❤️
Ditto! I am 66. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are one of my all time favorites. I saw them 4 times live, and we used to play a few of his songs at gigs. Tom is sorely missed. RIP!
Sometimes I seem to forget just how great Tom Petty was. This concert reminds me very quickly just how great he was. One of the best. RIP Tom you brought a lot of beauty into this world. I was lucky enough to see him 3 times.When he did this concert in Gainesville my wife was undergoing a bone marrow transplant at Shands in Gainesville and unfortunately we were so caught up in her that I didn't even realize he was playing. It was only until a few years later when I saw this on you tube that I figured out what I had missed. Still kick myself in the ass over that one. My wife she's still kicking and is even more pissed than me that we missed this while only a few blocks away.
Benmont (Benjamin Montgomery) Tench has been w Petty since the beginning. Very soft spoken gentleman who turns into a beast on the keyboard. If you go back into the catalog, he’s a big part of the magic on every song. Don’t Do Me Like That sounds like they wrote it to put him out front. Whole band is in top form on this one. We miss you, Mr. Petty.
One day my two teenage boys were driving with their mother. She likes pop and more current music and she was scanning through the channels when both boys said, "That's Tom Petty, go back." I can die knowing I did one thing right in raising my boys.
Just did Leeton to Goulburn (They're Australian towns and I live near G'burn) with Tom all the way. I'm still running down that dream. This whole concert.......no cop was gonna stop me!
Tom Petty was the most sincere man I ever met, your millions of fans are heart broken, losing you, we LOVE YOU TOM. R.I.P. rock legend, Thank You for all of the great songs. My feelings and prayers go out to all of Tom's family.
Very nice comment! I've watched about everything about Tom Petty-- I think he was a pretty "good guy", but also an asshole/perfectionist -- like me, and thank goodness he was! ;) See the clip of Tom defending Roger McGuin -- and the album price was $8 dammit! ;)
Benmont Tench is a great keyboard player ! I hope you've heard him sing The Old Man Down The Road ( John Fogerty song ) on Italian . It was on a videotape they released in 1989. So was the song called I'm Stupid .
Why do you say that about Mike? Just because he is not a household name like Clapton, Page or Hendrix? Mike is not underrated at all. He is an amazing guitarist. Anyone can hear that.
A C M to say a guitarist is underrated is actually a compliment, there are many in this category. Mike is one of them and he’s fantastic (a guitar player myself) His work is amazing the way he works this solo into this song-just perfect 👌
Tom Petty was one of the greatest performers of all time. He is one of just a few musicians whose live concert music sounded just as good, if not better than his recorded studio music. And Mike Campbell is awesome !!!
This concert was the best I’ve ever seen the band perform especially the song about being King. That night he and the band were the Kings in all of music .
Tom Petty and The Heart Breakers!!!! Love Tom Petty, his songs are so great!!!! I listen to him all the time.. He rocks that guitar!!! Great dancing music!!! 💃 💃💃💃...🎶🎶🎶.. 🌹🌹🌹....
Here's to the Old School ROCKERS !!!! & the artists !!!! Can you believe The STONES, Sir McCartney,, Neil Young, and SO MANY others still KICKIN ASS!!!!!!!!! LONG LIVE GOOD ROCK & FUNK & BLUES & JASS & SOUL & & &
We miss you, Tom. You knew how to rock and roll like few can- it's impossible not to start tapping your foot, playing fake drums, singing... you make people happy. love, earth
I never had the desire to see Tom in concert but did I ever mis out on one of the best live bands. To me the records were blah, but RUclips has certainly taught me otherwise. They are all better than excellent individually but shine brighter together. My loss
My wife and I saw TPHB 7 times. Seven of the best evenings of our life together. She passed away last year. Watching these videos and remembering gives me great comfort.
But these live on forever! Being at a live show is an amazing experience but I’m so thankful RUclips exists. I’m would have never been able to see my favorite players “live”.
Mike Campbell killed it! I like how he looks at his band mates after his solo, kinda like, “ok boys, put a bow on it, I’m good”. That was one of the most incredible solos ever. I’ve got it on “repeat” in my truck for my ride to and from work. Put a bow on it!
my husband had to get used to my eclectic taste in music, he has like a really limited amount of music that he likes , I like all, so when it came to rock he was not for it and I broke him with dream on and now this one he likes it I can tell because he doesn't tell me to lower it or change it and I blast it and do the air guitar on my way to work😆😆😆
❤ ""YOU GUYS ALWAYS BRING IT LIKE NOBODYS BUSINESS.""LOVE YOU ALL. ONE OF TOP 10 ROCK BANDS OF ALL TIME. I'VE TRAVELLED HUNDREDS OF MILES PLAYIN' TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS ON MY CARS STEREO ...AND PRAYIN' THE GOOD LORD WILL GIVE ME THE GAS $$$ & GOOD RUNNIN' VEHICLE TO DO IT ALL AGAIN...LOVE & PR❤YERS. ..& MUCH RESPECT FOR THIS BAND ALWAYS...R.I.P. TOM PETTY LOVE & MISS YOU. 💔❣💘💙💚💜💛🧡💙💝.
I used this song for my son's High School Football team's "Running Highlights Reel", and I got grief for it - 13 years ago. Now as the boys and parents are older guess what!? EPIC i'm told. RUclips stripped it of course, but I still have it on my hard drive and will post to VenMo this year. It stands the test of time and will do so 50 years from now!!! Petty running down a heavenly dream. Mike Campbell!!! Props!!!
Great song and one of the greatest rock guitar solos driven hard by one of the most in pocket drummers out there, Steve Ferone. Never get tired of listening to this!
Oct 2, 2017...RIP Tom my friend, joining that big band in the sky, will love you and miss you forever...I remember banging on my steering wheel when I first heard this Most Awesomest Song Ever, in the Food Lion parking lot, wishing I had a drum. My young daughter and I love you, your songs will live on forever, you are not gone, we have your songs. Shit, tears on my key board, Love you man
Back in the early 80's I was a long haired TV/Stereo bench tech in Florida. There was a new TV out and the manufacturer offered a Free training school on repairing it. I met Mike Campbell's father there he was a TV repairman lol. He was so proud of Mike. He sidled up to me and asked if I had every heard of Tom petty and I said hell yeah he's great. He says "Mike Campbells my son" !!! At the time it was pretty cool. On and on he goes. Hey Mike your dad was really proud of you!
Runnin' Down A Dream" It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down I had the radio on, I was drivin' Trees went by, me and Del were singin' Little runaway I was flyin' Yeah, runnin' down a dream That never would come to me Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads Runnin' down a dream I felt so good, like anything was possible Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes The last three days the rain was unstoppable It was always cold, no sunshine Yeah, runnin' down a dream That never would come to me Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads Runnin' down a dream I rolled on, the sky grew dark I put the pedal down to make some time There's something good waitin' down this road I'm pickin' up whatever's mine I'm runnin' down a dream That never would come to me Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads Runnin' down a dream Yeah, I'm runnin' down a dream That never would come to me Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads I'm runnin' down a dream
I would say unknown. Band members whose bands name begin with the name of the band leader rarely get much notice except by hard core fans. Joan Jett and name a few of the black hearts. In a few cases like Bonjovi, people knew Richie but that's the exception. Many people never really noticed the difference when Petty made solo albums. Some did but most people can't point to which songs came from them Campbell is a great guitarist but Tom Petty was the name people said when they talked about the music. No one ever said I got tickets to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. They said they has tickets to see Petty, and who was on stage with him was an after thought. That changed a little over the years, but no even though it's an overused description on RUclips he probably is under rated or unrecognized by average fans.
Yesss. I remember the first time I drove to Manhattan from Boston and heard this when I was approaching the city and could see all the tall buildings at night. Fitting song
Yes it is a very good driving song and a good song to play along to with drums!!!! Makes ya want to go fast ❤ with caution of course 😂 We all miss you Tom and will see you in heaven 🙏 You can play for us there ✌️
I really love this man. I remember when he first had a hit way back and I knew this guy is amazing. My condolences to all his family and friends. Just so you all know we loved him so much.
Lucky people in that crowd. I miss Tom Pettys music. The full moon fever album is excellent. RIP Tom. What a amazing artist. 👏 ❤ and his band the heartbreakers. ❤
3:59 I can listen to that solo for hours. EDIT: Today is the 15th year anniversary that this magnificent concert took place! Long Live Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. 🙏🙏🙏🤟🤟🤟
Running Down A Dream !! Aren’t We All ??
After praying everyday, I listen to this song and watch this video. Enough said!
Hats off to the drummer 🙂
And the keyboard player.
Cuánto tiene que disfrutar estando ahí
And the singer.
And the guitar player.
You can keep yer Taylor Swifts and Beyonces,..gimme Tom Petty any day for sheer excitement! God i miss these guys :))x
Me Too
My husband and I would play this song, every Friday night before we went out to our favorite beach bar. He died this week. The day after, I was standing in line at the Target pharmacy, waiting to pick up a prescription.This song came on. I don't remember ever hearing music in Target before. I think this was his way of contacting me. We were married 58 years.
rae anderson so sorry for your loss, and I do believe you maybe right. Hugs
So sorry hon,i know the feeling.god bless
It is possible for sure....There was a connection of some kind going on there. I'm sorry you lost your husband. 58 years!! You are luckier than most but take that and 50 cents and it still won't get ya a cup of coffee right?
Definitely a way of saying he’s still there no matter where you go, I’m very sorry for your loss.
I cried when I read this. 58 years is amazing and I'm glad you had that time together. Having moments like this are awesome and I'm glad you had it.
My dad loved Tom Petty. He died a few years ago. One of the roughest years of my life by far. Love you dad, and thanks for influencing my taste of music! ❤❤
Na ja, verständlich. Aber was kann Tom Petty dafür, dass dein Vater gestorben ist??
One of those rock songs that never ages,sung by one of the greatest rockers
February 2024 and still listening to the Heartbreakers. This song is forever. We're all running down a dream.
It is now April 2024 and still rocking out to Tom and the Heartbreakers!

i can't imagaine how good it'd sound live.
May 2024! Yeah baby!

I live in a seniors building and I play this full blast. Most of my neighbors are deaf anyway. Still rocking out at 68.
me too at 72 !
I love your attitude!
Deaf or dead??😁
I love this song and Tom Petty ❤ I'm 76.
Awesome! First concert my husband & I took our sons to was Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. They cherish that memory & so do we! Keep blasting your music!
I watch this video just to focus on the last part. That Guitar performance is next level. Phenomenal. Wow. Anyone else addicted to it like me?
I am. But it's not just the guitars, drums are unvelibeble too
Yeah for sure. It is a great piece of guitar 🎸 work. Rock on ✌
Since the first time I heard it and ever since!!! I'm 70 the end of this mo. and listen to Sir Tom whenever I listen to any music, which is almost daily!
Yes. Mike Campbell is incredible
Absolutely thats why im watching lol
Still missing his music.
missing his music and his biggest fan, TP and Johnny Spil R.I.P.
“I feel like a forgotten man”
Fortunately the music didn't go anywhere.
Almost 67 and I'm still Running Down A Dream. Thank you, Tom and all the Heartbreakers!
Live life when you can listen to music this good
Nobody replied why
I just want to give a big thumbs-up to everyone who came here, and said all of these kind words about this legend.
Cheers!
I never realised how good this tune is until today and I'm 56
Better late than never 😊! Love Tom Petty!
Young pup! You see thats the problem with kids today 🤣
He's got plenty more
Outstanding. Who hell are these 1.1 K people who didn't like this song / performance. Unbelievable.
They are w/out any class!!
Not all of us are born with souls...
Tom Petty was the best concert I've ever been to. No nonsense, just rocked solid playing hit after hit.
absolute truth ... fortunate to see two concerts as Tom's health began to fade === beyond ethereal unbridled brilliance ... Eternal Blessings Tom - a massive void exists filled with Heartbreaker Memories !!!
Played this song at my late husbands celebration of life ceremony 2010 , he loved Tom Petty! Miss you Tom and Keith (my late husband) married 30 yrs ❤

This is possibly one of the GREATEST guitar solos ever played in a live concert! Mike Campbell simply shreds that guitar solo, amazing artistry! Tom Petty was one of the great ones, RIP.
One of the best rock song EVER
PS I was married to a drummer and not a day goes by that I miss him
Oh yeah......this and Mark Knopflers' solo on Telegraph Road live (around 1987) along with David Gilmours' Comfortably Numb solo live at Pompeii I can listen to daily and never tire of hearing. Campbell, Knopfler and Gilmour at the absolute peaks of their respective careers.
There never was nor will be anyone like Tom Petty and his dedication to his extraordinary band proves it ,,, could go on and on ,
I have to agree. Awesome solo
Gainsvilles own Tom Petty! Its clear that Ole Tom loved Rock & Roll and playing for his fans. He,ll be sorely missed. We folks in Fla miss him extremely!! And a Great Dude!!!! RIP Tom P.❤❤❤😢
Every band member a master of his instrument.
That's an absolute fact, they could play Anywhere with anyone or start their own groups if they wished
The last rock and roll band.
Thanks Brother , what a fantastic journey you have accomplished and it will remain always a part of me.!
You could easily find yourself at 100 mph if you're not careful.
Hi friend, how are you doing today
I couldn't have said it better!
Been there..copper's running us down...no no..out ran them many times..Jason Australia..twin turbo Nissan motor sport....300k passing raders on highway... faster than twin porsche turbo..they're still finishing dongnuts....every night...
Yeah, this song is made for a fast driving car.
(Even better if it's a brand new one and this is the first CD/Selection ever played in that brand new car!)
I know, right ✅️
Michael Campbell is just about perfect on every Petty song... One of the best lead guitarists ever, because he played for the song, not for his own ego. His guitar was never about showing off... just filling in all the blanks in beautifully written songs with full color!
John Diggs This is my all time favorite guitar solo.
Petty always very clear in his interviews of the importance of his partnership with Mike Campbell to his work. Even when Petty did solo recordings, he generally had Mike with him.
And Deadpan as well.
John Diggs Amen
Like Gilmour of Pink Floyd, I always look forward to the guitar solo from Campbell
A band is only good as it sounds live in concert. This is my absolute favorite performance. I always cry at the end because I know how his final story ends. A part of the world died when Tom Petty drew his last breath. RIP you beautiful man. You went out on top.
He passed away from heart disease by medicating himself because he would not take time off to have his knee surgically replaced. A disservice to his fans, his family and his little granddaughter.
That is the only thing that matters is being alive and contributing to the good of it all , and nobody has been able to do that better than the Legend that will Always be Tom Petty and rather have a few smiles in his honor than crying because he left to wander....So wherever they have gone the best thing to do is crank every single song and the rest is my kind of PEACE ☮️☯️💟

YES YES YES.......MIKE CAMBELL! UNDERRATED GUITAR PLAYER!
I first saw Tom here in G'ville, Fl.. He was in a band called, 'Mudcrutch'....Great stuff!
underrated for sure
Tom petty was a awesome guitar player but smashed his hand to bits, so he needed a lead guitar player.
@@chrisflesher1041 Mike was that bands lead guitarist from the first time Tom heard him play. Before TPaTH was even a band.
Tom Petty one of the great ones. He always made it look so effortlessly when he played. I listened to him in my teens and I am now in my late 60s. Amazing talent RIP Mr. Tom Petty. Gone to soon but never forgotten ❤️
Saw him 5 times, even with Dylan, had an amazing time!!!
This song is timeless and Tom will always be a legend. R.I.P Mr. Petty you gave so much!

Yes, yes you can!
Great job, Dad!
Yes that's the way educate the next generation of rockers. Great sound and guitar. ❤
One of the greatest bands of all time. Tom Petty was so really talented and he will, and always, be missed.
Yes, he was a real talented rocker, yet seemed happy to be part of the band and not need to have all the attention and accolades.
You are sure Lynn. How are you doing? Hope all is well with you there
the best driving song ever
Just did Leeton to Goulburn (They're Australian towns and I live near G'burn) with Tom all the way. I'm still running down that dream. This whole concert.......no cop was gonna stop me!
Exactly ... my vintage
Right on brother !
Especially round the streets of San Andreas.
I knew I wasn't the only one that loved this song when on a road trip!

I'm 74, seen Tom Petty twice. Will not stop listening to him, may he RIP 😢
The piano parts are so killer on this song! I think the piano is one of the many little things that make the Heartbreakers so unique!
Listen carefully....keyboards are actually a big thing in a lot of heartbreakers tunes.
Love this tune ❤
@@barbaraberg2393 Check out "It's Good to be King" from the same concert. Amazing keys, twin lead solos and drums. Best version ever.

there way too many under rated guitarists ,,,,,,,Lindsey Buckingham and Mark Knopfler,,,, many more............
1267jimbo
Mark Knopfler transcends all ratings just on “Sultans of Swing “ alone not to mention “ Money for Nothin”
Mike Campbell's guitar solo is one of my favorites in any song.
One of the best guitar riffs of all time!!!!!
Rap crap doesnt come within a million miles of TRUE talent.
Tom said Michael came up with this riff to mimic Jimmy Page who wrote all the best riffs.
This song, this voice, this solo, these drums, these...everything!

One of my favorites of Tom Petty's songs. RIP, Tom. We miss you. ⚘
God took him from us too soon. Why?
😢
Tom Petty was one of the greatest performers of all time. He is one of just a few musicians whose live concert music sounded just as good, if not better than his recorded studio music. And Mike Campbell is awesome !!!
This is what I call music
Very few indeed and Petty certainly outdid himself here for sure!
Think the Heartbreakers played a small role.
in the middle music started a bit ago but good observation nice rock
welcome to southern rock friend
Fuck yeah!
This concert was the best I’ve ever seen the band perform especially the song about being King. That night he and the band were the Kings in all of music .
My kind of drummer.... Solid, no drama, just metronome-like steadiness and precision.
Steve Ferrone, a Brit.
Jumpin Skins!
And funny too how when he missed a beat in the middle ,Mike lifted his guitar back in recognition to his greatness.Jet Engine!
@@jerrilehane7815 missed a beat where??
I first saw Steve with AWB in the early 70's and he's been that "go-to" steady drummer.

I never had the desire to see Tom in concert but did I ever mis out on one of the best live bands. To me the records were blah, but RUclips has certainly taught me otherwise. They are all better than excellent individually but shine brighter together. My loss
My wife and I saw TPHB 7 times. Seven of the best evenings of our life together. She passed away last year. Watching these videos and remembering gives me great comfort.
My condolences. Play this song as loud as you can in her memory! 💙
I listen 2 this song every day I'm so sorry about your husband I will say a prayer 4 him God bless u 2:17
Gets better every time.
Love Tom Petty his music had
Huge influence on me growing up in Reno in the late 70’s and 80’s.
I love this song! It makes me sad that I never got to see Tom Petty. This is my favorite Tom Petty song! Put me in a good mood!❤️
I agree 200%.
Same. Never saw them Live :(
Hard to beat "You Wreck Me" though!
But these live on forever! Being at a live show is an amazing experience but I’m so thankful RUclips exists. I’m would have never been able to see my favorite players “live”.
Agreed x
words cannot describe what this video does for me. Tom Petty was the greatest American rock and roller of all time..Thanks for this
I personally find his music very spiritual
Mike Campbell killed it! I like how he looks at his band mates after his solo, kinda like, “ok boys, put a bow on it, I’m good”. That was one of the most incredible solos ever. I’ve got it on “repeat” in my truck for my ride to and from work. Put a bow on it!
Also, how Tom lets the talent of his band mates get some light. Not only about him.
my husband had to get used to my eclectic taste in music, he has like a really limited amount of music that he likes , I like all, so when it came to rock he was not for it and I broke him with dream on and now this one he likes it I can tell because he doesn't tell me to lower it or change it and I blast it and do the air guitar on my way to work😆😆😆
I do love the way Campbell plays solo. You most have of the song at home there
❤ ""YOU GUYS ALWAYS BRING IT LIKE NOBODYS BUSINESS.""LOVE YOU ALL. ONE OF TOP 10 ROCK BANDS OF ALL TIME. I'VE TRAVELLED HUNDREDS OF MILES PLAYIN' TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS ON MY CARS STEREO ...AND PRAYIN' THE GOOD LORD WILL GIVE ME THE GAS $$$ & GOOD RUNNIN' VEHICLE TO DO IT ALL AGAIN...LOVE & PR❤YERS. ..& MUCH RESPECT FOR THIS BAND ALWAYS...R.I.P. TOM PETTY LOVE & MISS YOU. 💔❣💘💙💚💜💛🧡💙💝.
I used this song for my son's High School Football team's "Running Highlights Reel", and I got grief for it - 13 years ago. Now as the boys and parents are older guess what!? EPIC i'm told. RUclips stripped it of course, but I still have it on my hard drive and will post to VenMo this year.
It stands the test of time and will do so 50 years from now!!!
Petty running down a heavenly dream. Mike Campbell!!! Props!!!
Hj Robert, how are you doing today
Those guys were soooo good! There will never be another band like them. Simply awesome!
so true !! love the drummer !!! he looks like hes pissed at those drums !! bad ass !
They had so many great songs but I think this was the best!
I think I have to agree with you.
The whole band was just exceptional, but god I miss Tom Petty. No one like him ever 💔
Mike takes us all for a ride on his flying guitar,like a magic carpet ride.
Missing Tom 💔
That was one of the Greatest Ovations I’ve ever heard! I Love this Song!
My favorite song from TP & The Heartbreakers!!!! Classic Fire!!!!
Great song and one of the greatest rock guitar solos driven hard by one of the most in pocket drummers out there, Steve Ferone. Never get tired of listening to this!
Thanks, didn't know his name but, yeah; he is killing it here ..
Oct 2, 2017...RIP Tom my friend, joining that big band in the sky, will love you and miss you forever...I remember banging on my steering wheel when I first heard this Most Awesomest Song Ever, in the Food Lion parking lot, wishing I had a drum. My young daughter and I love you, your songs will live on forever, you are not gone, we have your songs. Shit, tears on my key board, Love you man
Still will be banging the steering wheel

Anywhere in march 2,023..Tom Petty FOREVER
2024
It doesn’t get any better than this. Professional musicians playing rock and roll together in a band for the ages. Tom Petty was a gift. RIP good sir.
Back in the early 80's I was a long haired TV/Stereo bench tech in Florida. There was a new TV out and the manufacturer offered a Free training school on repairing it. I met Mike Campbell's father there he was a TV repairman lol. He was so proud of Mike. He sidled up to me and asked if I had every heard of Tom petty and I said hell yeah he's great. He says "Mike Campbells my son" !!! At the time it was pretty cool. On and on he goes.
Hey Mike your dad was really proud of you!
Very cool! Glad his dad is/was so proud. Thanks for sharing that! Mike's the best. (Miss ya Tom).
That is still pretty cool today.
Gainesville Florida in the 70's was called, 'The Berkley of the South' due to the music scene.....
That's so cool to hear...small world for sure!👍👍
Goddamn! Some of the most underrated guitar playing in rock and roll.
Fucking Amazing
Runnin' Down A Dream"
It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
I had the radio on, I was drivin'
Trees went by, me and Del were singin'
Little runaway
I was flyin'
Yeah, runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
I felt so good, like anything was possible
Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
The last three days the rain was unstoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine
Yeah, runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
I rolled on, the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down to make some time
There's something good waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever's mine
I'm runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
Yeah, I'm runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
I'm runnin' down a dream
Mike Campbell, the most underrated guitarist in rock and roll. I never saw him having a bad night.
Underrated. The most over used saying on you tube.
He is very overlooked!
@@thomasedmundrichards UNDERRATED
I would say unknown. Band members whose bands name begin with the name of the band leader rarely get much notice except by hard core fans. Joan Jett and name a few of the black hearts. In a few cases like Bonjovi, people knew Richie but that's the exception. Many people never really noticed the difference when Petty made solo albums. Some did but most people can't point to which songs came from them Campbell is a great guitarist but Tom Petty was the name people said when they talked about the music. No one ever said I got tickets to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. They said they has tickets to see Petty, and who was on stage with him was an after thought. That changed a little over the years, but no even though it's an overused description on RUclips he probably is under rated or unrecognized by average fans.
No, He's "rated" just fine....smh...
One of the greatest driving songs ever.Thank you Tomx
Yesss. I remember the first time I drove to Manhattan from Boston and heard this when I was approaching the city and could see all the tall buildings at night. Fitting song
Yes it is a very good driving song and a good song to play along to with drums!!!! Makes ya want to go fast ❤ with caution of course 😂 We all miss you Tom and will see you in heaven 🙏 You can play for us there ✌️
This is an awesome song. Used sing along to it in the 80's such a great song.❤
He left us some really great music
I really love this man. I remember when he first had a hit way back and I knew this guy is amazing. My condolences to all his family and friends. Just so you all know we loved him so much.
Lucky people in that crowd. I miss Tom Pettys music. The full moon fever album is excellent. RIP Tom. What a amazing artist. 👏 ❤ and his band the heartbreakers. ❤
Mike Campbell's guitar playing is so underrated. He was phenomenal here.
Tom Petty was also a great guitar player until he punches a wall in a hotel.
I always liked the subtle piano licks on this tune.
Hi friend, how are you doing today
3:59 I can listen to that solo for hours.
EDIT: Today is the 15th year anniversary that this magnificent concert took place! Long Live Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. 🙏🙏🙏🤟🤟🤟
So very very good!
My favorite
I have. For decades now! NEVER gets stale! Wonderful legacies. Blessed, all, to have it "forever on the world wide webz". TC
Me too!!👍👍
