WILDFLOWERS ~ TOM PETTY AND THE HEARTBREAKERS ~ FOR CHARISSE ~ (Lyrics)

[YEM321]

I think the point is that there is really no point - just listen and be happy

[zenajax2]

Absolutely stunning. Wonderfully done. The biblical quotes were nicely chosen and perfectly in sync with the song. Thank you for sharing!

[SuddenSparkles]

Loved it and especially enjoyed the words from the gospel...

[hnp5019]

love this song and the video you made..this songs always makes me tear up for some reason



[lesaww]

Find somewhere else to have your debates, I just wanna appreciate this song.

[trizmo289]

I think he's singing to me.

[Crowbabe74]

I'm pagan, and I liked the bible verses chosen, because they all are things that my spirit guide has taught me; true wisdom is universal, and will be found across the board in spiritual places, writings, and from spiritual teachers. I looked for this song because it contained exactly what I needed to know in order to live an authentic life, when I needed to know it.

[MrShakey50]

tears flow freely when i hear this song. she belongs somewhere she feels free.

[calico992]

Great song. If you believe in Jesus, please watch Zeitgeist part 1 (religion) with an open mind...

[castlemaninc]

@calico992  ex nihilo nihil fit

[foundmyrosebudfan]

@calico992 Oh for I have seen the light, you were right, Almighty Zeitgeist was all truth..... My life is now changed..... try speaking for your self, or I could just say. Here is a Bible, go read it. Not that I want to get into Zeitgeist right here over this beautiful song. But a movie that mixes up the Kar'an with the Bible is not exactly the movie I would watch to get my lifes morals from. Have a great day

[kostaskurelias]

@foundmyrosebudfan amazing reply!

[DucatiJohnny]

she belongs among the wildflowers... she belongs somewhere she can be free...

[shaunteaches]

thanks for the video, I posted a tutorial on the song

[LanaandGabesMama]

I was only half paying attention to the video when the Bible verses popped up. :) I thought it was beautiful. I love the song and I thing the verses you used were lovely. Now I'm going to go back and watch it again paying better attention this time. And don't worry about people who don't get it. :) Hopefully they will some day.

[harriscm91]

this song was played at my step moms funeral...it was her favorite song ever i love you momma i miss you soooo much.

[Rockification09]

1:14...are those two girls your daughters?? :D they're beautiful! :)

[christineMonroe68]

My favorite Tom Petty song! As for the Bible verses...remember this was made for someone. If someone made a cool video like this for me..I personally would LOVE the Bible verses..... but to each their own.... just sayin.. it was made special for someone that likes the Bible. :D cheers!

[HeavenlyBohemian86]

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!

[26sherrybaby]

wow this is awesome!!!!! Thank YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING!!!! I love the say you did this to give PRAISE TO OUR KING!!!! I love it!!!!!! From one SherryLynn to another God bless you ALWAYS Sis!!!

[lilleestar]

I love this song...it was the first dance at my wedding...and even though the marriage didn't work out, I still love this song. The beauty of this song is transcendent, thanks for sharing

[chefdjx]

What a great video to go with one of my favorite songs. Great job!

[orangecrush0214]

Rip jack, my cat, who died from a heart attak and was buried where wildflowers then grew like weeds ( i love this song my name means wildflowers ) oh, tom petty, thanks for everything :D



[NickersonGeneral]

I love Tom Petty's lyrics. Usually, great lyrcists tend to be complaining, dark, tragic, or anything negative. Tom has proven you can write nice happy songs while still being original and clever.

[crankstart]

I've probably listened to this song a thousand times (a few times live in concert), and never put it in the context that you did...Thank You...It just goes to show that God can show Himself any way He chooses, and not all of them are at church.

God bless you and your family.

[7redeye8]

This is also the first time they trusted him with the lead guitar or any, great song;}

[Sagatiaej]

I will never hear this song without thinking of Steve Shae,.. whereever you are my friend I love you and hope you are well. Lifetime love and friendship,.. God I hope you are safe,.. 10 years is too long. Thank you so much for posting

[HazeFerRillz]

i can't even say how much this song means to me and the way i see the world. listen and connect. love& be free ty mr petty

[musicis4losers]

Not that important, but this song is not by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. It's just Tom Petty. You even quoted in the description that it is Tom Petty Solo, but got the title wrong.

[HowPettyful]

This song can be interpreted in so many ways... But I like to interpret it in the peaceful and joyful way ^_^

[pivotnoobRB]

I have a friend that was close to someone(but they broke up IT WAS 8th grade!) and 2 years later(few months ago) i wanted to be close to who that Someones Friend, few weeks later I was told by Someones Friend that "Someone doesn't wanna talk to you anymore your bugging her" but tonight several months later I talked to the Someone and I liked it. and this is her favorite song and... I wanna talk more.

[hemet92544]

Uh yea, Jesus wants you to find a lover, and run away and make love out in the open in some wildflowers........ummm.......­..

[pupsparkle9]

haha wow this is my 100th favorited video

[Hutch0624]

I say everyone is entitled to their opinion, but not everyone should be exposed to it. Sherrylynn posted this for her family and those who might enjoy it. The ones opposing are just holding the rest of us hostage to their MISERY and GRIEF. If you don't like the BIBLE DRIVEL aspect, then don't read it. I think some people just like to hear themselves talk, or in this a case, see their own words on the screen.

Thanks again for the video. I enjoyed it thoroughly!

[Hutch0624]

Hey Sherrylynn70,

What a sweet video you posted. My mother and I share this song, although she dedicated it to me in 1997 while I was going through some deep emotional turmoil, I think she's is the true wild flower. No matter what I've been through or am going through, I know who I'll see at the end. Jesus, Momma and our entire family on her side, my sister, and my true loves (my husband and children)!

[karoletoledo]

My name is Mike from LA Although there busizz4me.info

[CarmenGreer79]

My Mom was jerked up from this earth in July of this year. Her favorite thing is to do is garden. When she would come home from teachcing, she'd be knee deep in earth pulling weeds and planting seeds. I could water her gardens with my tears.

[deansusky]

He was one of the many kings that came out of AMERICA

[evilgeorgw]

great song and nice video .... except for the bible stuff, that sort of ruins it i think ... let beauty speak for itself without inserting archaic middle eastern religion into it ... seems as if you missed the point of the song and of wildflowers

[sherrylynn70]

everyone is entitled to their opinion...actually, I think you missed the point..I think Tom would agree...how sad that you believe the message of the home by and by is archaic to you..but, thanks for visiting...keep you heart open to others opinions, too.

[leper123fly]

@sherrylynn70 Good for you for taking the high road. While I am a man of faith, not religion, I do enjoy hearing other peoples points of views, especially when they differ from my own. Very nice video/artwork. I love these kinds of heartfelt personal videos. Thank you for sharing.

[crazykristen819]

@sherrylynn70 just saying tom wrote this song completely ad-libbed. so he didnt really take time and write this song about a specific something. he wrote it for people to connect to it and be happy when they hear it. that is all.

[brendanflanagan737]

@sherrylynn70 naaa u missed the point deal with it

[newjerseydev]

@evilgeorgw I like the video but yeah the biblical drivel doesnt work for me either. and to the person who posted this. I think the beautful images you put up (dolphins frolicking in an unpolluted ocean, nature etc) run contrary to what the evangelical right and the rel right have have supported and want to do to the country. Pollute, overfish, and drill ofr more oil will destroy the scenery, wildlife depicted in these images. I am ashamed to have been brought up christian

[ThePannydancoast]

@evilgeorgw how bout you dont be so judgemental and let him be religious if he wants to. just cuz u dont ;)

[tunetothis]

@evilgeorgw just close your eyes just not forever

:)

[hislittleone93]

@evilgeorgw I agree but i also disagree, if that makes sense. I don't think the bible verses belong in any of Tom Petty's songs. But in a way i can see where she/he got the inspration for it tho.

[crazydaisyatl]

@evilgeorgw you missed the the whole point of her video...its how you see it ....GREAT VIDEO

[gmenfan48]

@evilgeorgw Tom was an extremely spiritual person. No matter what your opinion is on Christianity...you should respect the songs meaning for having such a deep connection to Tom and to the person who made this for his wife/girlfriend. Maybe if you read the Bible with a more open mind you would see that its a beautiful work that has a different spiritual meaning to each person and not just a "archaic" religious tool used by bible thumpers.

[1bill571]

@evilgeorgw - there you go thinkin again

[thefreewheelindylan]

made me cry missing my friend in London

[orangecrush0214]

im my moms wild flower cause sheridan means wild in irish and my middle name is rose for real!

[rebeccafields33]

ayed this at y daughters funeral.  Love it.

[BYUbleedblue12]

Good video and great song! Where is the love never fails scripture?

[humanrights4all]

Freedom, you either have or you die trying!

[mommapearl1]

Love the meaning behind this song

[KristaDanielle1]

Very beauitful, TY for sharing ;)

[dragonranger12]

This song makes me feel so peaceful.

[jdt606]

Sherrylyn70 great song and great video.

Babyjesus10000 I find it sad you'll complain about someone else putting thier beliefs in a video they made for someone all the while shoving your lack of faith in our face

[benjaminhooper1987]

@jdt606 I find it sad that people of religion spend so much time fighting wars in the name of god that the only way to make themselves look like better people is to tag their belief on anything beautiful. It's pathetic when people claim something for their own when in reality it has nothing to do with them. It's worse than plagiarism. It's theft of the worst kind because it's immoral. It degrades humans as a race. I don't say don't believe in God, I say be moral. I see those two as conflicting.

[jackieO708]

oh to be free...

[kevinwo72]

How is it possible to have a favorite Petty & Heartbreakers song?

[ofishin98]

i love this song

[samatl74]

The Heartbreakers had nothing to do with this song. This is off Tom Petty's solo record

[Lynz121007]

my favorite tom petty song.

[alysondavenpo]

I love this song heard it today...

[CarmenGreer79]

Someone Once Dedicated This Song To Me. Needless to Say, I Was Extremely Flattered.

[mustangTNT]

Heavenly!

[TStrawberryJam]

Lovely. Simply lovely.

[happyboi54]

i hate corey haim

[happyboi54]

good shit

[clairegirl25]

"you belong somewhere you feel free...run away, let your heart be your guide."

<3

[addictuss22]

cool

[ljsm187]

wildflowers one of the best cd's ever thumbs up

[TheGonzalezsim]

I like this song

[sorenjus]

i have to say, this is one of his best songs

[jarilima]

This song was played at my brother's funeral. Every time I hear it, it takes me back to that heartbreaking day - and I just have to cry. It's been almost four years, but it seems like just yesterday...... I love you, Ed, and miss you every day.

[TStrawberryJam]

@babyjesus10000 Quit being a cry baby. If you don't enjoy the video SHE made for HER DAUGHTER...no one is forcing you to watch it. Go make your own video. Boo hoo. Boo hoo.

[babyjesus10000]

Thanks for the song and some righteous pictures. Could've done without fucking scripture, though. "It is a terrible thing to die of thirst at sea; is it necessary that you so salt your truth that it no longer quenches thirst?" Do you get the quote? How about let Tom Petty be classic rock and your 2000 year-old fairy tale be an 2000 year-old fairy tale. As opposed to shoving your rancid beliefs down people's throat at every turn? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[babyjesus10000]

Thanks for the song and some righteous pictures

[Princeboy99]

This seriously is one of the most beautiful and inspiring videos I've ever watched on Youtube, and Tom Petty's a huge reason why of course but I love the pictures you have added. It definitely compliments the words perfectly. I'll always have a special place in my heart for this song. There are not MANY songs as special as this one. It's universal. Great job! 5 stars

[paperbackwriter1964]

I love this song. My dad and i used to listen to this when i was little. I'm not much of a country fan, but i LOVE Tom Petty. Great song, great vid:)

[shandraxox]

He is the best song writer to ever walk this earth lol Beautiful video!

[eteachout]

Sensational.

[sherrylynn70]

What an awesome response...that is what I could only hope for...and, why I am here...thank you so much..means aLoT to me...God bless you and yours always..♥

[eteachout]

Aw, jeez. Well your response is what I could only hope for, made my night and melted my heart. I was really depressed about the double-dose of sadness with Corey Haim and Alex Chilton passing away, your video and reply cheered me up some. God bless you and yours as well.

[sherrylynn70]

Awe Man...more saddish news..ok..I am ready...even tho..they are somewhere better..and, I have feeling..you are here to tell me news I am suppose to know..ok ..go ahead and break my heart a little more...I think Tom Petty and, the Heartbreakers know eXactly what they are singing about. I appreciate you being here..means aLoT..

[jlaser12]

Beautiful video!

[BellaItalia4480]

Very pretty video SherryLynn :) This is my favorite Tom song; excellent job!

[pianoman00712]

Anyone have sheet music, tabs, etc. for that little piano riff that starts at about 2:12? I know the chords to the rest of the song, so that would really help a lot. Thanks in advance.

[dewburt411]

[wedwedwed1]

This song makes me think of my momma. She passed away with all 3 of her children by her side. We had her cremated, and my brother spread her ashes in a field of wildflowers in Washington State. RIP Forever mom!!! Think about you everyday.
