[thebiggestqueenfan]

[sethzky77]

What's the trick to matching other peoples voices?

[polcamara]

I like Tom Petty´s voice... but yours is funny!

[joeygsmom]

[gibbsforeverfan]

Best wishes to Stevie Riks and family. Hope to keep seeing you on youtube next year.

[Grimmfather]

You are quite amazing! Keep up your great work

[MrMike3865]

This is a great song and you did a great job of of looking and sounding like Tom Petty. It was great, I can sit all day and watch the videos and laugh!

[TCBabe1]

Beautiful Stevie! THANK YOU for all the fantastic videos you post..it's not like you're getting paid for all your HARD WORK! I can never get too much of any of your characters so keep on doing what you're doing like you've been doing it 'cause you certainly know what you're doing..... Yes Indeed LOL x

[MyChemicalRainbow]

Good one Steve, I love this song too! :o) x

[CarlBewley]

How can I like this better than the original?? I do . .. . I do . . .. Anyway, thanks for this, I needed a song for my wife and this was spot on lyrically. Awesome as usual Mr Riks

[BMaick]

Can you do Under Pressure with Bowie and Freddie, this could the best thing of the world. Greetings From Mexico.

[jcmend58]

Whoa! Outstanding! Congrats, Mr. Riks! This is perfect!

The southern accent...Tom Petty would be proud, for sure!

Five stars...as always!

[FunkyShoe]

Haha this is so good! I love it.

[brightonrock74]

You're amazing Stevie, don't let 'em get you down. Brilliant Tom Petty! :)

[ZedralZ]

Another fantastic video! Thank you so much for all the work you do to keep us entertained. You're awesome. :)

[briancatanzaro]

Steve, I thoroughly enjoyed this video, music, background and all! Hooray for the USA! You are awesome. Thank you.

[jojosullivan1024]

As I watched this amazing video I just kept wondering one thing...did Tom Petty ever date Lulu?

[TheAmazingMrRiks]

Amazing as always. Your videos are gonna live on forever - whose gonna wanna YouTubes 'favourtes videos years down the line?! The ones that get half a million views in a day...they're out of date the day after. We love what you do Stevie and I'm so glad you're still making videos -you're the BEST : ) Keep Rockin !

[meowbarrymore]

This works great with Just Tom Petty in the video - it focuses our attention on him and you're impression of him is amazing. All your stuff deserves more views. Like a zillion trillion gazillion. YouTube is so fucked up theses days.

[strimmer73]

Another Riksy classic! You've really got this guy down. The look and the sound are spot on. Keep em coming Stevie!

[ryoko65]

you are without a doubt THE BEST singer impressionist ever!!!! ---- though I think you've kinda done Freddy Mercury enough ---- love your impressions of the Beatles the best :) awesome!

[MrSTEVIERIKS]

@ryoko65 ..Thank you my Friend..I dont think The Freddie Fans would agree with you to be honest..LOL

But Thanks anyway :))

[TheAmazingMrRiks]

@MrSTEVIERIKS There can never be too much Freddie he's comedy gold. Genius character. Yes indeed. Dayoooooooo

[MyChemicalRainbow]

@ryoko65 I agree with Stevie, I LOVE Freddie, he constantly makes me laugh, Please don't stop doing Freddie Stevie

[kajwilhelm]

Perfect, sounds just like Tom. Spooky........

[ZZJoCa]

I don't understand why Stevie isn't recognized as one of the best impressionist in the world.

[Llzdd]

This was awesome...thx for sharing Glenn!!

[MrBeatles4eva]

AWSSSSOOOMMME POTRAYL

[vivajay]

Stevie, you should have broken out your George Harrison, Ringo and Jeff Lynne costumes? They were all in the original video

[MrSTEVIERIKS]

@vivajay ...My Friend..For the number of views im getting these Days..It aint worth me putting in a weeks work and getting dressed as George Ringo etc.."BELIEVE ME"............I do this for NOTHING dont forget!

[knarisa]

@MrSTEVIERIKS you should look into becoming a Youtube partner. You definitely should be getting something from entertaining all of us with your talent! :)

[MrSTEVIERIKS]

@knarisa .. I am a Partner...:)

[ZZJoCa]

@MrSTEVIERIKS Mores the shame 'cause you deserve worldwide acclaim. YT did you wrong.

[mrstevehartman]

@MrSTEVIERIKS I know the number of views is low. Your Lennon and Elvis video is filled with negative comments. Personally, I dont understand that. I think your the " Rich Little " of England ! So, one day the worm may turn toward your favour ?? KEEP TRYING !!!!

[Thegoodmusic56]

You should have done Mike Campbell for the solo, it'd be easy with your Brian May wig.

Awesome Video Stevie!

[psychgirl07]

Another absolutely fabulous cover.

[TinkerbellKat]

Ahahahhaha the look is definitely spot on!

[Monkofmagnesia]

Wow! You actually made a Tom Petty video better than the original. The original was, I believe, pre- 9/11. This video is like Tom Petty is saying, "America won't back down to terrorists."

[MaximumRD]

Is there nothing you cannot do Sir? You never fail to amaze! Take care sir and have a great holiday!

[PuggyBank]

This is great. I love the haunting quality of this song. Bush wanted to use it in his presidential campaign in 2000, but Petty said NO.

[spacecowboy5000]

I am blown away! Wonderful job, Steve. You really have the look down pat - even the teeth. And I would be hard pressed to tell your version from the original. Bloody good, old boy!

[thebiggestqueenfan]

hahahaha next time do a version with The Traveling Wilburys playing in the back

[MrSTEVIERIKS]

@thebiggestqueenfan ..Is that an order or a request...lol

[MrSTEVIERIKS]

@thebiggestqueenfan .. Theyre's plenty of the Wilburys Videos on my profile..If you care to look.. :)))

[thebiggestqueenfan]

@MrSTEVIERIKS Yup and they are amazing!!! Remember, you're weeks of work go to our entertainment and just show how amazing you really are. I truly mean that...you have a great talent so all this work is definitely not for nothing. I'd just love to see some more Queen (not Freddie) videos of them playing live like you did with the beatles :)

Keep on making great videos

[YCSMusic]

Great stuff, love Tom Petty.

Hey Stevie those teeth are really doing the rounds ain't they...lol

[Austenmad24]

Awesome video dude :-)

[27121957]

Just Friggin Awesome Steve...way too go kickass cover again....***** & Faved.

Regards Glenn.:)))

[Llzdd]

@27121957

Thx Glenn for sharing this awesome video with me :)

[Berniewahlbrinck]

Lots of praise from a devoted Tom Petty and Stevie Riks fan!!!

[KingofTomedy]

Oh man, I LOVE this song. Tom Petty sounds wonderful when he sings this. :D

[zacandtaylorrule]

Stevie this is just brilliant! I have been a Tom Petty fan for a long time and you need to do more Tom videos.

[analyzingfunny]

oh wow! That is really is better than the original. Pure genius.

[wamr1977]

where's Ringo?  great stuff!

[johnnymegabyte]

@wamr1977 I'm pretty sure Ringo AND George appear in the original video
