      The song becomes hypnotic at 7:00 my tearing time, one of the greatest false endings in music. I often stop the tube about 10:41 so it never really ends.

    Say what you want about Elvis, The Beatles, Prince, MJ......Tom was (and still is) just as much of a musical gift to the world as each of them were. They all changed the world. They all affected lives. They were all strangers to no one, because we all knew them through their art. While we will never stop missing Tom, I still thank God for giving him to us as well as the technology to keep his life's work alive forever...

  • @tomlederle1960
    @tomlederle1960 4 роки тому +177

    i guess what I always liked about Tom Petty is he always put everything into his music, his whole heart and soul. At about 7 minutes in, when the crowd thought the tune was over and started to applaud, he just started back up again and gave them another 6 minutes of virtuoso soul-baring music. Damn it was good. Maybe one of the best I've ever heard.

    For today, I'll stop and make a comment. Gratitude that our paths crossed before the world discovered Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. Before he became a King. When this DJ was Music Director of a radio station in San Jose and 6-10pm DJ. When Tom and Ron Blair came by our studio at KSJO between the soundcheck and the show. Their first in the San Francisco Bay Area at the Keystone Palo Alto. From that night, I was convinced that they had magic and fire. And after the show, we stayed up till dawn at a motel. Yes, the stories we could tell. This performance appears to be from the 30th Ann tour, Gainesville, Florida. Thankful that I can still play it on the radio. Just because. ☮💌

      Who you see back there grinding it out with others and having a great time? Mike’s on low attitude. Check a little deeper ,,he’s not underrated,,never was overrated at all since a druggie who got his Creds being in a stupor on stage or dying at 27 being a fool…

    I'm a pretty big Petty fan, and was devastated when he died. I always loved this song, have heard it countless times but never this long version.
    I thought, man that first 6 minutes was perfect, existential, then the second 6 minutes just absolutely blew me totally away. I gotta go lay down for a while. TP, we all miss you but your music will live for freakin ever!

    One of the most awesome performances ever by Tom Petty Mike Campbell and the Heartbreakers. Glad this is on video, his band was one of the tightest bands out there, it's what happens when they play 40 years together. They were family, like brothers from their teenage years. The moment I like is Tom and Mike at the end playing together and smiling. I miss Tom Petty so much, probably the most of these musicians who passed in recent years.
    I just performed a set recently of his songs, and Good To Be King was one of the songs. Had a lead guitarist alongside me who gave the lead guitar parts lots of emotion. I think of Tom's music and I feel the emotion. It's hat makes Tom live still inside each and every one of us. Rest in peace Tom, we will never forget, thanks for your gift of music and songs. ❤

    The Heartbreakers homecoming concert. It's obvious that Tom, Mike Benmont, Scott and Ferrone worked hard to deliver their best possible performances to their home folk with this album. This version of "Good To Be King" is an absolute masterpiece and will go down in my books as the best song I have ever seen from a live concert. Even the camera work was artistic. It is said that "Art is the Quality of Communication" and this song and it's performance fit that definition in that it reached out and touched my musical soul and took me to places I have never been. And that possibly, is the purpose of music It's my opinion that Tom Petty and the Hearbreakers are the best musical ensemble to ever come out of America.

      I have seen him play almost every tour in the last 10 years and really hate not seeing him this summer. RIP Tom Petty you are truly missed. Hope your still RUNNING DOWN A DREAM.

    We lost David Bowie, Chris Squire (YES), Lemmy, Glenn Frey, George Martin, Prince and sooo many others over the last year. The great news is we still have Tom Petty!!

      Everyone is going to heaven or hell because everyone has a choice now. Jesus was God in the flesh and gave His Life for all mankind that would merely accept the free gift He was offering, Faith that He is who he said He was. So simple, even a child can grasp it. Examine that for yourself, please.

      Lyle Pegrim you say the gift is free? really now? or is there a catch you will tell us all about?
      if the gift is truly free, then I think we will all accept, right?

      lyle you are the first i have seen in my lifetime to
      say the CHRIST was/is GOD because that has been
      my belief since hearing "WIND UP SONG" by
      JETHRO TULL.

    Beautiful work as always. Scott Thurston is such an integral part of the Heartbreakers, always delivering vocals & great work on many instruments, from the shadows.

      Scott adds alot of nice work with another HOF'r...i.e. Jackson Browne too. And Mike Campbell plays the stealthy figure role on the list of great guitarists! Lotta talent amok here. Outstanding. Appreciate it I do.

    Is this beautiful or what. My sister just told me it's been 6 years since Tom left this world. He'll never really be gone. He filled so many of my days and nights with his beautiful music. I hope he knew just how special he was and still is. I miss you Tom Petty❤

    The band: again, quality. In a class all its own, singular. This is one of my favorites, when considering both lead singer with his band.

    Man, Tom had it together! Yeah he was a Cool Florida Dude and you can detect some of that in his music and maybe some Bob Dylan. The Tom Petty's of this world don't come around too often. Thank God for Recordings. Yeah I know, I miss him too!!
