  • Thumbs up if you didn't need a video game to know about this great song!

  • First finding it in GTA:SA (K-DST is my favourite station there), now I am playing it on percussion in Guitar Hero... I love both games.

  • best driving song ever!

  • This is not the first comments section to make me realize what an awesome song selection GTA:San Andreas had.It makes me wish I still had my copy or that Rockstar would release it again in a high-def version.Oh well,from what I hear GTA 5 is going to take place in San Andreas.Now if they could make the song selection just as awesome us gamers are gonna be in for a treat!

  • I really wanted this as the theme for my high school graduation. It's much better than the failure of a song they actually picked!

  • I always thought this was "running down a drain". Kinda makes more sense imo.

  • I can imagine me riding in my truck down a highway in the boonies doing 65 on a warm summer evening.

  • @UnbiasedGiraffe Oh oh im sorry i was born in the 92 how the hell am I suppose to find out this song... its barely played in the radios nowadays you should be glad that its in games like San Andreas so the legacy of good music can be carried on

  • @cherrypoppa92

    maybe you just dont find the right radio station. I have heard many 60s and 70s on the radio. over the past 20+ years. as well as great classics from the 80s and 90s. Just got know where to look.

  • SAN ANDREAS!!!! KDST

  • @swine74 The critics at hollywood. I wonder if you could be a critic. You seem a little stupid and uneducated to be a judge. Leave now. or forever hold your life.

  • @swine74 what the hell are you talkin' about the voice matches the song perfectly and if i would meet Tom Petty in person i would tell him that he is awesome

  • Driving in the country side at dawn with a 1969 Dodge Daytona with this song on the radio!

  • k-dst took me here!

  • Best heard driving down Highway 1 at dusk in a Plymouth Charger

  • "Runnin' Down a Dream" is the title of a song co-written and recorded by Tom Petty. It was released in July 1989 as the second single from his first solo album Full Moon Fever. "Runnin' Down a Dream" achieved reasonable chart success, reaching number 23 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the top of the Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart, which meant in practice considerable airplay then on album-oriented rock stations. It has since garnered significant airplay on classic rock stations.

  • The radio in my bedroom 1991. And in the car. Thanks god for radio reaching regional Australian girls like me........

  • Born in '81. This was grade 4. This was ALL that happened in grade 4. And I never forgot it.

  • Thumb up if this is the only tom petty song you listen too

  • I used to use this song in the English Conversation classes I taught in South Korea. I would teach the vocabulary, then give the students a lyrics sheet with some of the words missing and they would listen to the song and fill in the blanks.

    Finally, we would all talk about the dreams we run down as we fly down life's highway.

  • Good quality
