You forgot another line - “Sometimes you’re happy Sometimes you cry half of me is ocean, half of me is sky” I’ve always took that to mean just as the elements have an affect over time, ocean water and powerful rays of the sun will eventually wear out that barricade. That and her big heart - basically they will both bring down each other’s barriers 😊
Honestly...what can ANYONE find not to like about this incredible piece of artistry? The songwriting, the musicianship...all incredible. Tom Petty really was one of the truly great artists of our time, and we were lucky to have him with us in our time. This is music that will stand the test of time.
I wouldn't say he had a beautiful voice. He had a very unique voice and you knew when you heard it, that it was him! He certainly used it to bring his songs to life.
What Petty does is to make the extraordinary appear simple and the simple extraordinary. "Heart so big it could crush this town." "Smoked cigarettes and stared at the moon." "Long day livin' in Reseda." "Most things I worry about never happen anyway." All seems so off the cuff and easy .. but try doing it yourself.
ocan1033 very well put, indeed. At one time I had mistaken Tom Petty’s brilliance for ordinary, but it is in no way ordinary, it is genius, and absolutely extraordinary
You just made me cry with your beautiful description. Tom was truly a Heartbreaker. Right to the end..... Such a beautiful soul under those soulful eyes.
i'm so amazed. his audience consist of adults his age and even decades later younger kids are still listening to him. i have SO much respect and appreciation for this man and the music he has made throughout his years.
I am truly still grieving. A comment came to mind that I saw somewhere a couple of weeks ago ...it said: "Tom, you Heartbreaker, you went and broke our hearts." ♡♡ A huge loss for all fans who loved him. So thankful for the legacy of music Tom left us. You will never be forgotten Tom! ♡
Caroline Baxter Right on. I tear up every time I watch his videos. Dana needs our prayers, folks. It's been over a year now & she's missing him very much! 😢💜
Unbelievable lyrics on this, and all of Tom’s tunes. RIP to an absolute legend. So missed. Wish I could’ve seen him in concert, but I know I can always find solace in this crazy life by listening to his stuff. And that keyboard solo..magical
@@thetompettyproject I know you know this but it was of the Storytellers series on I think VHS? Pretty girls in a row at the front of the audience and one lovely young woman with her boyfriend totally rapt in the music for its own sake ... 20/20 hindsight not all the bio details exact and who cares? A human being who gave his heart and soul to his music audience amazing band ... to be forever cherished.
I have been lucky enough to see TP 5 times in Canada. I have been Lucky to see alot of concerts back when they were affordable. I have seen Pink Floyd. ACDC. Metallica several times. Bob Dylan. Slayer. Steve Earle. Slipknot. Primus. Rush. Just to name a few. I will say this. TPATH is the definition of rock n roll. Best served live. My fav shows ever. R.I.P. yer music will live forever so you will never die.
I'd be honored if some Petty fans would check out my acoustic keyboard & vocal cover of INTO THE GREAT WIDE OPEN on my channel in tribute to one of the purest artists that the USA has ever produced. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and keep on rocking. THE LEGEND LIVES ON
Tom was one of ''those'' people who ''just have IT''.....their soul just seems to be connected to a completely different energy source. I'm not with it enough to figure out what IT is, but I sure do appreciate it when I see/hear IT!!! LOL thank you, Tom. You made millions of peoples' lives so much better.
AgentUndertaker absolutely AGREE. Damn is right. I used to love Howie’s high harmonies with Tom sooooo much (and still do). But wow, Scott does a freakin’ amazing job.....especially here on this song. Sounds just 👌!!! And Benmont’s keyboards👌. And Mike Campbell playing that...instrument he plays (not sure what it’s officially called?) - it sounds absolutely fantastic. Put it all together with Tom’s unique voice/style and you’ve got true, utter perfection right here. 100%.
That's the way it should be, as much as fans like to sing along to heighten their personal experience I wish they would just zip it. I wanna hear who I paid money to hear, not a crowd of people.
I have most of Tom’s music in my iTunes rotation. On the morning of 10/2/17, I listened to this beautiful song, one of my favs, as I drove into work thinking what would I do without Tom’s music to get me through the traffic jams of life. Sadly it was later that afternoon I was sitting in my office doing some legal research when a news brief popped up that Tom was on life support. I had a dreadful feeling we’d lost him and within minutes the news was confirmed. Friends started texting me. My boss who knew I was a huge fan came down to my office to see if I’d heard. I ended up meeting a couple of friends down at our watering hole to commiserate and it was all anyone could talk about but made it so much easier to know I wasn’t the only one hurting. In fact his death inspired me to play guitar and “Walls” was the first song I learned. I truly hope Tom knew what he meant to his fans.
History will tell that it was Mr Tom Petty who wrote the Great American Songbook and folk will say Bob who? Because Tom Petty is and was the real deal.
How professional is Mike Campbell? Mike is usually the co-pilot but he eyes up Benmont Tench on his killer keyboard part to make sure Benmont is the focus...which he certainly is...KILLER! Kudos to Mike Campbell.
One of the regrets of my life, not seeing Tom & The Heartbreakers when they were in Hartford June 14, 2017, less than three months before we all lost him. His best songs were not necessarily his most popular ones, not a bad one in the bunch. Such a talent & treasure!!
That is amazing,I thought I was a late TomPetty fan, 35 now, got into Petty in th late 90s, You guys, 20 years later like him, Petty has been playing for 30 years, and he i still picking up fans. One of the best, Tom
You're right, the lyrics do have a deep, personal meaning. Even more this morning as the news of Tom's passing on is slowly sinking in. I grew up in Florida, went to school at UF in Gainesville. Tom Petty's music was just always there, like a favorite shirt, always comfortable, always in fashion. God bless Tom Petty, may he rest in eternal peace.
Rob McLean I love this song soooooo much. It’s one of my TOP 5 favorite TP songs (I think I have about 35 “top 5” songs of Tom’s😉). Those lyrics are just perfect and beautiful and pure Tom. And no one else can sing them the way he does either. What really also got me about this particular song is the fact that he was asked to write/contribute just ONE song for this movie.....and he watched the movie and liked it so much that he went on to write the entire soundtrack for that movie. Who the heck does that?? Who else has the creativity and talent to do that? Only Tom Petty. I didn’t grow up in FL, but I did grow up with Tom’s music. I remember hearing “Listen to her Heart” back in 1978 or so? I was a high school senior. Still one of my most favorite TP songs. During his lifetime, I hate to admit, I wasn’t one of those absolute super fans. I knew and loved his music though and just always thought he’d be around. Human nature, I guess. Maybe that’s why his passing has gutted me. He WAS always there.....and now he’s not. But his awesome music does live on, and what an amazing legacy it is!
I'm doing my "Petty" rounds today - keeping my heart alive - - I LOVE what you said Rob -- "his music was always there, like a favorite shirt, always comfortable, always in fashion" I join you in saying: 'God Bless Tom Petty, may he rest in eternal peace".
What strikes me as odd is on SiriusXM’s TP Buried Treasure channel, he keeps remarking about how they jacked him around on his studio, treating him like a 3rd class host; 4 yrs after his death, they’re running his shows back to back still operating ON HIS CHANNEL!!!
ruclips.net/video/97mYaU4akVE/видео.htmlsi=YjMP1trhPl0PRAca the person that posted this, pinned comment , has a Petty TV site too with other cool live videos from 70s
I was in Philly too last Saturday and their performance was AMAZING!! you can truly fell Tom's energy and love for his craft....a gifted musician and songwriter....best concert ever...and I came all the way from Italy to see him
This song is particularly poignant to my wife and I at this point in our lives. Tom and the band played it at the Sept. 21st concert at the Hollywood Bowl. I cried at the show and I've shed a lot more tears since Monday. I am completely gutted. Sometimes the world sucks and a lot of times listening to Tom and the band would make it a little more bearable. RIP Tom...you are greatly missed!
How Mike Campbell's talent goes under the radar of a genius musician ,is a total mystery to me .......i.saw the band live a couple of years back.absolutely star studded talent throughout.i I have no doubt his music will be as fresh in 20 years,when one considers what some of today's music measures up too.
I had the pleasure of seeing him in Little Rock, AR. His only time there. I thank God I got to see him in concert. Also my kids got to see him. We miss you...
I started falling in love with Tom Petty at 14 as well. Now I am 30 and his music still touches me deeply. I always said, heseems to write songs for me, always has a perfect song for whatever I'm going through. I also love his fire, humbleness, and humanness. His band is full of superior talent. Rock On Tom!
Scott is so great, his backing vocals are perfectly in sync with Tom and you can tell that his job is to contribute to the song and not to stand out from it.
Tom Petty has been part of the soundtrack for every wonderful and terrible thing that's happened over the course of my life. I can't believe he's gone. This day can fuck off forever. Rest In Peace darlin'. 💔
It has been 6 months since his passing and I have been listening to songs on his earlier releases, and, as it is with all his songwriting, his gift, was immense. Such a beautiful human being. So glad I got to see TP& THB at the Sept. 22, 2017 at the H. Bowl. Hugs to Dana, Adria, AnnaKim, Mike, Ben, Steve, Ron & Scott. Myself as well as the entire Tom Petty Nation are with you in spirit.
I woke up singing this song today. This could have been written for me. I spend my life building my walls high and thick. Every time I let someone in, I just build my walls higher so I can't get hurt again. Keep out the world, keep in the pain. Pretty sure Tom wtote this about me. In fact, I think all the songs he wrote are about me.... How did he know me so well? Surely no one else hides behind their barricades, that's just me, right? I wasn't allowed to listen to Rock growing up, or go to school dances or have friends outside my parents church. I was born in '72, and I was about 3 or 4 when my dad's mother, who I never got to meet (no matter how fucked up your family is, trust me, 99 times out of 100 I'll win that game) she sent me a transistor radio, just a little hand held kind that took a 9 volt battery and had a long-ass antenna. I used to listen at night with the volume low. I got to hear Elvis and the Beatles, CCR, Steve Miller. A friend made me a mix tape of some Police songs when I was about 12, which I loved, but I didn't get to hear Tom till I was a teenager. Full Moon Fever-- I think I had to replace that tape at least twice while I was in college. I love Tom, and when I'm really low, or really anxious, I turn to Tom. The last couple years, Tom and Jack White (in all his many incarnations) have been in heavy rotation. Tom just soothes my soul, which is why I wore out 2 cassette tapes of Full Moon Fever in college. I think I'll have that last verse of Walls on my tombstone. It just sums me up so well, and imagine having Tom Petty's words immortalized on your resting place? What could be more soothing than that? Whenever my time comes, I plan to round up all my dogs, my grandfather, and we'll join the ultimate Tom Petty concert, wherever it is.
One of my all time favorites. Even if it was for a movie soundtrack..Seeing him live -just basics like this is even better. I don't need a light show and deafness after the show. So many artists working there on the stage. Excellent group. Thanks Tom!

Tom was one of a very few who sounded better live
“All around your island/theres a barricade/that keeps out the danger/holds in the pain”...INCREDIBLE lyrics. Tom Petty was a national treasure.
Indeed
The man was a poet.
They dont make em like they used too ...
Yeh, this whole lyric is just astounding. "You've got a heart so big, it could crush this town". No one writes like this.
You forgot another line -
“Sometimes you’re happy
Sometimes you cry half of me is ocean, half of me is sky”
I’ve always took that to mean just as the elements have an affect over time, ocean water and powerful rays of the sun will eventually wear out that barricade.
That and her big heart - basically they will both bring down each other’s barriers 😊
The man could say more in one line than most songwriters can say in a whole song...Miss you Tom.
You mean lines like, "I'm just a loser at the top of my game."? One of my favorites, which, unfortunately I can relate to all too much at times.
❤️❤️❤️
You know..
When TP crossed over
A piece of my rocking youth
Heart cracked
❤there was a gem in this world and his name was Tom Petty ❤
"Walls" is probably my favorite Tom Petty song, and this live version is fantastic!
Thumbs up if you're listening forever ;) Timeless.
Amazing lyricist ❤❤❤We Love you ! Rest peacefully Tom Petty ❤
Love you always , Tom ❤
I still mourn tom petty to this day. Never has the death of a celebrity impacted me so profoundly
Same. :(
It was such an unpleasant shock, his passing. Yet he gave us so much cool, down-to-earth, real time, while he was here!
Yes Sir, I fully agree
I still mourn 4 years later! This man WILL live on!
@@anyathewildchild4400 I am still in tears every day and night, I met Tom in 1990.Such a nice humble sweet humble man,
Some days are rocks but days I get to listen to Tom are diamonds.
Honestly...what can ANYONE find not to like about this incredible piece of artistry? The songwriting, the musicianship...all incredible. Tom Petty really was one of the truly great artists of our time, and we were lucky to have him with us in our time. This is music that will stand the test of time.
So damn well said!!!
This song just makes me happy and sad at the same time, I don't think I'll ever get over his passing
I don't understand how 44 people could unlike this song. One of my favorites. I love Tom Petty.
Probably because of patriarchy or something...
Elle Bee me too. It’s one of my absolute favorites. One of my top 5 TP songs for SURE. I have about 35 “top 5’s” of his!!!
Elle, are you Honey's sister?
sitting on their taste buds.
hell yeah one of his best....but the drums and guitar are incredible.
A masterpiece song. That it. 💕✨
"Half of me is ocean. Half of me is sky".
One of the best lines ever!
❤❤always so emotions #tompetty
Great version with the mandolin's solo and the piano's solo. It makes so big it could crush this town...
Such a beautiful voice... Tom is so sadly missed.
I wouldn't say he had a beautiful voice. He had a very unique voice and you knew when you heard it, that it was him! He certainly used it to bring his songs to life.
Very few musicians can sound the same live or in studio. That is true organic talent.
A legend forever. Rip in paradise.
Tom, remember Kelly my beautiful daughter. She just died. I will raise her daughter. Please meet her.. She loved you. Kelly Busse was the best.
My favorite songs ever “ you got a heart so big it could crush this town”
He certainly had a way with words that could just melt your heart
What Petty does is to make the extraordinary appear simple and the simple extraordinary. "Heart so big it could crush this town." "Smoked cigarettes and stared at the moon." "Long day livin' in Reseda." "Most things I worry about never happen anyway." All seems so off the cuff and easy .. but try doing it yourself.

Tom was a musical genius.
You just made me cry with your beautiful description. Tom was truly a Heartbreaker. Right to the end..... Such a beautiful soul under those soulful eyes.
Been 1 year and i am still in tears..Yesterday was a rough one one..
i'm so amazed. his audience consist of adults his age and even decades later younger kids are still listening to him. i have SO much respect and appreciation for this man and the music he has made throughout his years.
I'm just blown apart by his death and this song is both comforting and devastating. "Part of me you carry, part of me is gone."
Caroline Baxter me too....completely devastated
I am truly still grieving. A comment came to mind that I saw somewhere a couple of weeks ago ...it said: "Tom, you Heartbreaker, you went and broke our hearts." ♡♡ A huge loss for all fans who loved him. So thankful for the legacy of music Tom left us. You will never be forgotten Tom! ♡
Caroline Baxter Agreed, bittersweet listening to these, but I'll never stop. ♡
Caroline Baxter Right on. I tear up every time I watch his videos. Dana needs our prayers, folks. It's been over a year now & she's missing him very much! 😢💜

That's my favourite part of the video. When Mike and Tom both turn to watch their friend rocking out. I love that moment.

Perfectly said!
ByA
Tom's smile always warms my heart....God....we miss you.
Love that beautiful Tom Petty smile,...
Damn. Scott's harmony is amazing, and Benmont on those keyboards though. Something you'll never be able to recreate in modern music.
AgentUndertaker absolutely AGREE. Damn is right. I used to love Howie’s high harmonies with Tom sooooo much (and still do). But wow, Scott does a freakin’ amazing job.....especially here on this song. Sounds just 👌!!! And Benmont’s keyboards👌.

AgentUndertaker mandolin! That’s what Mike is playing👌
Yeah, Mighty Mike on the mandolin is nothing to dismiss. They were all versatile as fuck.
@@padodger7 Really unbelievable ... Very reminiscent of The Band, except a notch higher with Tommys lyrics and composition. jmo.
Beautiful song. Love the piano. Makes me think of floyd cramer
Don't think Tom ever wrote or sang a bad song. I really miss this guy big time.
Look at the crowd they are quiet and really appreciating the song
That's the way it should be, as much as fans like to sing along to heighten their personal experience I wish they would just zip it. I wanna hear who I paid money to hear, not a crowd of people.
I have most of Tom’s music in my iTunes rotation. On the morning of 10/2/17, I listened to this beautiful song, one of my favs, as I drove into work thinking what would I do without Tom’s music to get me through the traffic jams of life.
Sadly it was later that afternoon I was sitting in my office doing some legal research when a news brief popped up that Tom was on life support.
I had a dreadful feeling we’d lost him and within minutes the news was confirmed.
Friends started texting me. My boss who knew I was a huge fan came down to my office to see if I’d heard. I ended up meeting a couple of friends down at our watering hole to commiserate and it was all anyone could talk about but made it so much easier to know I wasn’t the only one hurting. In fact his death inspired me to play guitar and “Walls” was the first song I learned. I truly hope Tom knew what he meant to his fans.
I miss Tom Petty and My Dad!
amazingly well written song, but its Petty's singing style which truly makes him an all time great, in my opinion
Got it in one, Randy!
History will tell that it was Mr Tom Petty who wrote the Great American Songbook and folk will say Bob who? Because Tom Petty is and was the real deal.
No better group out there, never has been,never will be!!
Best band and front man in the history of recorded music.
How professional is Mike Campbell? Mike is usually the co-pilot but he eyes up Benmont Tench on his killer keyboard part to make sure Benmont is the focus...which he certainly is...KILLER! Kudos to Mike Campbell.
Tom paints emotions thru his guitar and voice
Still listening in 2024!
Same here. The more I listen to his music the more I miss him ❤
Me too
At the beginning of the Song ...there is Only His Voice 🎤& His Guitar 🎸...
And it is Perfect 🎼🎵🎶!
Absolutely love that Tom's videos are still surfacing in my youtube feed. Miss you Tom. #AmericanMaestro
How could you leave us all so early ? So unfair. RIP Tom. Your music is there to stay
Hard to write songs that good
Rest in Peace Tom Petty. Just a beautiful human being.
One of the regrets of my life, not seeing Tom & The Heartbreakers when they were in Hartford June 14, 2017, less than three months before we all lost him. His best songs were not necessarily his most popular ones, not a bad one in the bunch. Such a talent & treasure!!
This faster version really should have been released as the single, but I get it.
183 people are hopeless lol
Tom was awesome live. I'm grateful I've had the chance to see him in my lifetime
Im right there with you. I was lucky enough to see Tom and the boys on 9 seperate occasions and was left breathless every single time.
That is amazing,I thought I was a late TomPetty fan, 35 now, got into Petty in th late 90s, You guys, 20 years later like him, Petty has been playing for 30 years, and he i still picking up fans. One of the best, Tom

Petty is in pain but still preforms for hours appreciate that Great Man! RIP Brother
As much as i love Tom Petty and Mike Campbell...Benmont Tench on keyboards kills this song...a classic!
This is truly poetic.

Lo echamos de menos ... mucho ...
Wow! I love the little Rickenbacker electric Mandolin! Mike often has interesting guitars...
His Gator one is my favorite, but I'm a little partial. (I went to UF. lol)
Agree. His collection of guitars is absolutely phenomenal!
How Mike Campbell's talent goes under the radar of a genius musician ,is a total mystery to me .......i.saw the band live a couple of years back.absolutely star studded talent throughout.i I have no doubt his music will be as fresh in 20 years,when one considers what some of today's music measures up too.
FOR THE LEGEND TOM PETTY, ALWAYS LOVED FOREVER MISSED NEVER FORGOTTEN.
I absolutely love this song. I miss Tom so much 😢
Tom Petty rocks!
"Part of me, you carry, and part of me is gone"
THE PART OF YOU THAT WE CARRY WILL BE ALIVE FOREVER
I think that he was a friend, its painful to Lost a good friend. One of the greatest musicians
Wow Classic Tom Petty live performance. Will miss this great talent. RIP TP
Can.t believe the news, Tom 's true legend, won't be forgotten xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Never forgotten...ruclips.net/video/EMmo-wr-a6g/видео.html
My favorite version, wonderful song !
The sound track of my life, absolutely wore tom pettys music out growing up, and still do at 51.
...still do at 69!! lol
Good song
"Now I'm starting to relax a little bit--everywhere I look is me."
Rock Legend, Tom Petty and his band, they are all pros..We Love you Tom Petty..
😊2024 just found this album nothing to say. It’s so beautiful Thanks❤
The world will miss you Tom, sad to know you are gone, but you will live our hearts forever, we LOVE YOU TOM.
Just unbelievable. So minimalist but so full at the same time. The most talented musician and best band of their generation. RIP TP
This is making me cry,....I love you forever,Tom.
(and the Heartbreakers too)
Thus we lose another legend! Rest in peace Tom! Thanks for the music!
I just can't stop listening. What a song. Lines that say a lot and only those with good hearts will understand. RIP Mr. Tom Petty, you will be missed.
I had the pleasure of seeing him in Little Rock, AR. His only time there. I thank God I got to see him in concert. Also my kids got to see him. We miss you...

Thank you for the music TEP
This is one of my all time favorite songs by Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers!
I miss this man more than i do a majority of my late relatives. A void so big, it could crush this town.
Godspeed TP.
i like this version better than the album version, thanks for posting
Tom Petty, through his great music, lives forever. RIP
Mike on the mandolin absolutely beautiful...
goosebumps.
Tom Petty and this lineup.
Just wow.
I woke up singing this song today. This could have been written for me. I spend my life building my walls high and thick. Every time I let someone in, I just build my walls higher so I can't get hurt again. Keep out the world, keep in the pain. Pretty sure Tom wtote this about me. In fact, I think all the songs he wrote are about me.... How did he know me so well? Surely no one else hides behind their barricades, that's just me, right?
I wasn't allowed to listen to Rock growing up, or go to school dances or have friends outside my parents church. I was born in '72, and I was about 3 or 4 when my dad's mother, who I never got to meet (no matter how fucked up your family is, trust me, 99 times out of 100 I'll win that game) she sent me a transistor radio, just a little hand held kind that took a 9 volt battery and had a long-ass antenna. I used to listen at night with the volume low. I got to hear Elvis and the Beatles, CCR, Steve Miller. A friend made me a mix tape of some Police songs when I was about 12, which I loved, but I didn't get to hear Tom till I was a teenager. Full Moon Fever-- I think I had to replace that tape at least twice while I was in college. I love Tom, and when I'm really low, or really anxious, I turn to Tom. The last couple years, Tom and Jack White (in all his many incarnations) have been in heavy rotation. Tom just soothes my soul, which is why I wore out 2 cassette tapes of Full Moon Fever in college.
I think I'll have that last verse of Walls on my tombstone. It just sums me up so well, and imagine having Tom Petty's words immortalized on your resting place? What could be more soothing than that? Whenever my time comes, I plan to round up all my dogs, my grandfather, and we'll join the ultimate Tom Petty concert, wherever it is.
One of my all time favorites. Even if it was for a movie soundtrack..Seeing him live -just basics like this is even better. I don't need a light show and deafness after the show. So many artists working there on the stage. Excellent group. Thanks Tom!
