    but honestly, does anyone other than the beatles / elvis have that many songs on the radio?
    good luck Tom Petty.

    The Travelling Wilburys were an amazing supergroup. I always thought it was funny to hear Petty and Dylan on the same tracks.

    I like won't back down a whole lot.

    Please feel better Tom Petty.

    Also Tom Petty is probably one of my favorite American rock stars from his time.

    Here's some pretty good Tom Petty

    Tom Petty is one of my dad's favorite musicians, so I've listened to a whole lot of him

    He's not my absolute, but he's one of those solid rocks, that sort of music that's always there to depend on

    When I saw Tom Petty live, it was shortly after this album had come out, so the way he looks in this video is a lot of how I actually think of him

    I'm seeing multiple outlets reporting that he was taken off life support due to no brain activity, but they are all citing the same TMZ article. Also the firewall at work blocks TMZ, so I have no idea who their sources are.

    Discussing the rumors that fly around whenever something like this happens feels gauche to me. Until there's official word from his people, I'd just wait.

    A Woman In Love might be my favorite song of his(/theirs). It's certainly up there with You Got Lucky, one of the greatest videos ever made.

    My dad's favorite album is Wildflowers, or at least that's what he says. I think he might be lying, but that's just because deceit runs in the family.

    Anyways, here's some more fucking jams because I'd rather listen to music than refresh Twitter.

    For me Tom Petty music always makes me think of long summer rides in the car with my mom.

    He really was the touchstone rock artist that her and I will always share as one of our favorites even as I finally built my own taste in music that drifted further from hers.

    This is his standout song for me. Though this isn't my favorite performance of it.

    Edit - Found my favorite, link amended.

    I think my favorite song of his is Into The Great Wide Open. For now, of course, since he can still make new music because he's going to be fine.

    During my film classes back in highschool, some friends of mine did a music video to that. It's burned into my mind because we had to hear it as it got edited, in jagged pieces.

    CBS News is reporting that Tom Petty passed away at the age of 66.

    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/tom-petty-legendary-rocker-is-dead-at-66/

    I was really hoping he'd be fine. :cry:

    edit: Apparently LAPD cannot confirm Tom Petty's condition, though the link title still says he's dead. Being first doesn't matter if you're wrong, media.
