The 50 Best Tom Petty Songs
First time I've tried one of these in a while - no promises that I can actually keep up. But in memory of the late, great Tom Petty, feel free to list your favorite songs of his.

How long do we have? By the way, if anyone (like me) is stumped past 10 songs, Rolling Stone has a list of songs.

I guess three weeks? Honestly, I have no idea when I'd have time to tabulate the results, so this could just be a place to list/discover favorites.Live in Phoenix wrote:How long do we have? By the way, if anyone (like me) is stumped past 10 songs, Rolling Stone has a list of songs.

Re: The 50 Best Tom Petty Songs
So I take back my statement that you never hear Tom Petty on French classic rock radio, I didn't know Learning to Fly was his and you can sometimes hear it.
