Yes! I heard it first in the movie "FM" then came Damn the Torpedoes and TP provided a lot of the soundtrack of my life.

minnesotaboy.bsky.social•96 days ago

Hey! Probably don’t recognize me from the X. I requested a song last year… great to see you here. 80s meant to be watched with the music. Banger 👇🏽

carlnott.bsky.social•96 days ago

I remember Tom Petty coming out of nowhere, seemingly, then it was like he'd always been there. Then suddenly he was gone.

roygregory.bsky.social•96 days ago

grace jones does a great cover, too

seanjean1973.bsky.social•93 days ago

He was a skilled Writer,Musician and Singer. I miss him.

fishgirl66.bsky.social•95 days ago

I miss him - just one of the best

jinnrikki.bsky.social•96 days ago

I miss Tom.
One of the best writers of the 20th century.

auntieshell.bsky.social•96 days ago

Love this song !

reallynowwhat.bsky.social•96 days ago

I win tickets in the radio in NY to see him. It was a great show! What a loss

gonegirl69.bsky.social•96 days ago

Miss him

Amazing artist. I've listened to his Wildflowers album thousands of times.

ladyannheather.bsky.social•96 days ago

👍👍❤️🎶👨‍🎤

blueagain.bsky.social•96 days ago

I took TP for granted while he was alive. Which I saw him perform. The greats of my childhood are few and far between. At least we still have Gilmour.

blueagain.bsky.social•96 days ago

*wish

raznochintsy.bsky.social•95 days ago

Man I love Tom Petty. Thanks for sharing a great song.

jam-mi.bsky.social•96 days ago

Same here.

maryangelafitz.bsky.social•96 days ago

So glad you’re here, Jim. 🎶

bsorohan.bsky.social•95 days ago

I saw them at the Fox in Atlanta that year. The first concert I was allowed to drive to after I got my license.

brownsbrewers.bsky.social•96 days ago

Saw him on his final tour in Milwaukee with my Gen Z daughter, Tom is still relevant.

idyll-dream2.bsky.social•95 days ago

The whole first album is legendary. One of my absolute faves.

hollyjee.bsky.social•96 days ago

Is Tom Petty still alive?

popandmarsh.bsky.social•95 days ago

Stunning 🤩

remarkableretro.bsky.social•96 days ago

And wasn’t his Lucky character just an unexpected gem on King of the Hill? And the traveling Wilburys. A true Legend.

annakatog.bsky.social•95 days ago

I had this on cassette. I beat it!

messinmynest.bsky.social•96 days ago

Thanks I needed that!

regfil.bsky.social•95 days ago

still cannot believe Tom is gone😪

rogerisin.bsky.social•96 days ago

I miss him and his biennial tours. His music transcended at least 3 generations while being a top performer IMO.

ladonna53.bsky.social•95 days ago

I had this photo on my page nobody came.

ladonna53.bsky.social•95 days ago

He is the still the best!

ts-thornes.bsky.social•96 days ago

Awesome song. Runnin’ Down A Dream is my all time favorite Petty tune 🤙🏼

theuprights.bsky.social•96 days ago

Same here.
'Breakdown' changed the way I write, play and look at music.
Tom was one of the all-time great songwriters.
RIP

ebohminator.bsky.social•95 days ago

Saw them play three times at Redrocks, favorite band of all time, thanks for this.

jack-kerrigan.bsky.social•96 days ago

pattiagood.bsky.social•95 days ago

So glad I got to see him before he died ❤️❤️

cjeris.bsky.social•96 days ago

I like the 1st lyrics “it’s alright if you love me …. If you don’t.” he’s talking to a girl. maybe she loves him, maybe not. It sounds like they are breaking up. She crying, breaking down.

maddie00.bsky.social•95 days ago

Always love some Petty.

mesolelua.bsky.social•95 days ago

Love Tom (& The Heartbreakers).
Found him with Mudcrutch and love them too!
Lucky enough to have seen him 2X in concert.

ndhm.bsky.social•95 days ago

Me too. And as a fellow Tom Petty fan, I'm still irked - and I should've left a good response - by a post on Twitter a few months ago where someone actually said 'Do you actually like Tom Petty?', insinuating 'who in the hell likes Tom Petty', or at least it seemed that way to me.

mabpeters.bsky.social•96 days ago

Tom Petty is my patron saint

dexy26.bsky.social•96 days ago

Same

rightheretic.bsky.social•95 days ago

It will always be FreeFallin for me!

rungirlrun07.bsky.social•95 days ago

Last live concert I saw was Tom Petty

newenglandgoat.bsky.social•96 days ago

1st concert was Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers at SPAC

cindylou1103.bsky.social•95 days ago

Love me some Tom🤟

janopal.bsky.social•95 days ago

Takes me back to the first time I heard this song

ayeronnie.bsky.social•95 days ago

One of my fave songs. While the live version is awesome, kind of prefer the studio version. Would be happy with either though.

abidingdude420.bsky.social•96 days ago

Love that self-titled debut album. Damn the Torpedoes and Full Moon Fever are also masterpieces.

vidbizz.bsky.social•95 days ago

Grew up listening to his music. Saw him in concert early 1990’s in ATL. Great musician.

so-dm-done.bsky.social•96 days ago

I think that is still my favorite album. Don’t get me wrong, I love them all. Just the nostalgia that album invokes is very powerful.

reallyfasteddie.bsky.social•96 days ago

awesome

mamarockit.bsky.social•96 days ago

I miss Tom ☹️

believer42.bsky.social•96 days ago

Sadly, I didn't realize how much of his music I knew/liked until after his passing.

karrigetsthenews.bsky.social•96 days ago

Gaawwww such great rock. Everything he did was golden, including the traveling wilburys.

robart59.bsky.social•96 days ago

Great single, slow and powerful!

sid-berman.bsky.social•23 days ago

Jim, A pleasure to follow you here on Bluesky!

Great song!

seanzawadzki.bsky.social•96 days ago

Never got a chance to see Tom, but I did get a chance to see Stevie Nicks sing Free Falling

https://youtu.be/CaB6yhVAo1c?si=DauDC2_asAV0SLL9

lfjackl.bsky.social•96 days ago

Miss him so much. I admit I’ve never seen this before and I was a little surprised to see a Flying V instead of his Rickenbacker.

lfjackl.bsky.social•96 days ago

I had forgotten it.

ddagger2024.bsky.social•95 days ago

Though I'm not a Petty fan at all, I have never gotten over loving this song from the first time I heard it.

justpam.bsky.social•96 days ago

One of my favorite! Love me some Tom Petty ♥️

val66.bsky.social•95 days ago

He's missed

fedele708.bsky.social•96 days ago

So cool!

rosie65-1960.bsky.social•93 days ago

Love Tom and the Heartbreakers. Thanks for this.

kroc5.bsky.social•96 days ago

The only celebrity death to bring me to tears. Tom’s music speaks to my soul. His death was devastating 🥺

satarnynvolaire.bsky.social•96 days ago

Love it.

paulaej.bsky.social•96 days ago

So happy I was able to see him in concert singing this great song

nuketelaviv.bsky.social•96 days ago

this fraud wishes he was nettspend

jand4hs.bsky.social•95 days ago

My first ever concert was Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. Stevie Nicks made a guest appearance and they sang Stop Dragging My Heart Around. Miss him so much.

mmamalama.bsky.social•95 days ago

My rock god.

atthestars.bsky.social•96 days ago

I miss him so much.

pamdess.bsky.social•95 days ago

Love "Breakdown" my favor is "Free Fallin'"

beachbumdoll.bsky.social•95 days ago

Great song!

mrsjohnwick.bsky.social•96 days ago

Also the first song I heard by them. Also the first album I was given. Also the artist I attended the most concerts of - at least six times. They always put on a killer show!!!

jezebel75.bsky.social•95 days ago

What a legend. Miss him, his voice, and it sucks knowing we won't have anything new from him ever again.

sirwillofbill.bsky.social•93 days ago

I'm so happy you are here! 🎶

musicjim.bsky.social•93 days ago

Very Kind💐

sirwillofbill.bsky.social•93 days ago
