  • this vid was recorded with a lump of coal

  • Tom, you sure looked stoned on this one, lol, rock n roll you sexy thang xxx

  • dang, i lurves youz guyz ya got me~

  • what's wrong with him???what wrong with you dumpup???????????

  • from 3:56 to 4:32 what is wrong with him? Medical condition? Drugs? any one know?

  • RIP Howie!

  • This is great - thanks so, so much for posting this!

    Just a question, is the audio not synched to the video? It seems off.

  • @SummonHeather no. you're right. it is off. the video i made this with was from an old vhs tape that i made in 1994. when i converted it to digital it just came out that way and i never fixed it. sorry.

  • It's so scary! both David and Tom are young! lol jk but Petty was handsome when he was young

  • he looks like he was losing his hair drastically.....but now adays its all back...what gives?

  • LOVE everything about this clip...except for Petty's hair. Not a good look :p

  • Comment removed

  • WOW. GREAT song, superbly performed. He's just so damn good, I can hardly stand it. As I write this, MOJO is set to come out tomorrow; I can hardly wait! I feel like a kid the night before Christmas! How lucky are we that we have Tom Petty in our lives?! What a talented songwriter and entertainer! TP ROCKS!!

  • in case no one noticed, Steve Ferrone is backing up on drums in this clip, as by this time Stan Lynch had left the band. Famously, Dave Grohl (of Nirvana, The Foo Fighters, and most recently, Them Crooked Vultures) sat in on drums when Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers appeared on SNL in 1994 to promote "Wildflowers". Grohl was actually offered a full time gig as the Heartbreakers drummer, but declined to devote his time to writing, recording and performing with his new band The Foo Fighters.

  • with all respect, the true fans, i'm sure will already know that information as well as the similarities between petty and grohl as rock artists. please don't use my childhood hero for a medium to express what you think you know about music.

  • @paulbhensley He was pointing out for people who don't know.

  • @paulbhensley wow, you are some pompus asshole, aren't you?

  • @fanzappa yeah, i guess that was a little arrogant of me. my bad.

  • @paulbhensley What the fuck was that ?????

  • @jenningswriter I didnt know that. Thanks for posting your informative comment. His earlier music takes me right back to high school.. I love it when that happens :). Cheers

  • @jenningswriter Thanks for that inside info.... Not sure why the original poster thinks that every Petty fan is as well versed as HE is in every historic aspect of the Heartbreakers as a band.

  • @jenningswriter Grohl doesn't belong in the same sentence as Tom Petty.

  • Letterman: "How big of venues are you gonna be playing"

    Petty: "Oh you know, bigger than this"

    LOL Tom Petty rules!

  • Am I Correct? Noticed that Ron Blair might have played Howie's White Tortise P Bass on the 30th Anniversary?

  • @jimbob0521 Oops! Wrong. looks like a Lakland J Bass - Same color scheme.

  • awesome song awesome band theyre so good live

  • Thank you for posting this...petty is my favorite American songwritter...I saw him 10 years ago...hey, what year did Epstein passed away ?

  • 2003.

  • I love Tom Petty....but did you notice how he shakes hands at the end? hmmm

  • @nsra1933 He's probably being careful with it - he shattered his hand several yrs ago & had a bunch of reconstructive surgery done. I guess he has several pieces of metal in there helping hold it together. Tom is married & has kids - no limp wrist for him. TP rules

  • @Rodeopain He broke his hand in 1984, this was Letterman 1994. 10 yrs of babying it? I was not saying he's gay, far from it. Just a limp fish.

  • I was there that night.... Awesome they rocked the house!

  • I'm jealous of you....NYC, great Rock and Roll, great TV show piped in everywhere.

  • I LOVE this Band. I love TOM, I love THIS SONG!

    :D

    Ohhh yeeeah! You wreck me baby! :D

    Thanks for sharing!

  • i'm glad you like it despite the quality of the 15 year old vhs tape that i took it from. i've been a huge petty fan since i was like 13 and this one and breakdown are my absolute favorites.

  • Thanks for posting this Paul.

    Your VHS tape might be OK but there may be dirt on the heads of the VCR machine which will affect the quality.

  • TOM PETTY = GENIO

  • you gotta be a good vocalist to use a 57 mic

  • He looks like a cross between Dwight Yokam and Beetlejuice. This song makes me cum.

  • Petty's got the cutest darn smile ive ever seen :8)

  • Tom Petty is 10 Fagens cool.....

    My freakin' hero...and he's a Florida boy!!!

  • Terrific performance. It's too bad the sound and video quality aren't very good but despite that, it's incredibly vivid.

  • Tom Petty could be bald headed & bare footed & still out class, out perform, & out talent anybody!!! Prove me wrong!!!!

  • ..WTF do u idiots sit n pick people apart for..? This is a great

    musician, playin for U..enjoy it n shut-up abut his hair or choice of shoes that nite..??!! I hope u have perfect hair, can play guitar, write excellent songs, n sing them too...like for U to show us ???

  • his hair....

    LOL

    tom i love ya but lollllll

  • I know. A guys got to deal with his receding hairline in is own way I guess! At least he's not like Daniel Johns of Silverchair. The guy uses a Karate Kid headband! haha

  • I'm only 14 so I obviously haven't seen him when he was young, but it looks like he has gotten younger. He looks older here than now..in my opinion

  • I thinks it's because of the way he has his hair parted.

  • It's so great to hear and see bassist Howie Epstein. He had such a beautiful voice. It blended perfectly with Petty's. Not sure people realize how great he was.

  • yeah he certainly was. but like so many other great artists before him, he let his addictions get the better of him...

  • howie was great

  • That wasn't Howie . That was David Grissom from the Joe Ely Band

  • @ 2:55 ....clearly looks like howie.

  • looks like Howie to me....

  • ooooooooooh this is such a great song - second to 'something big'

  • bull this song is up with last dance i love this song!! the first three notes give me goosebumps everytime

  • Thank you!

  • you're welcome! i'm so glad to know that people appreciate tom petty as much as i do.

  • Thanks Paul.There's no other way in hell I'd get to enjoy this show without you,crappy vhs or not.Love it !!!

  • you're welcome. i will do my best to get some of the more obscure tom petty stuff up and running on youtube asap.

  • amazing tom petty

  • SHORT HAIR wtf lol , only time iv seen it short lol

  • his hair isn't short but it is kind of styled different i guess. maybe the video was cloudy on your end. sorry about that. it was taken from a 13 year old VHS tape but it's my favorite video of all time so i had to put in on here.

  • thank you so much for commenting on this! i first recorded this back in 1994 when i was just 14 years old. i've been a devout tom petty fan since then and anyone who isn't is just whack!

  • you know it's funny that you said you were 14 when this album came out so was i and now i have seen him on tour 7 times since 2000 he is truly an amazing artist. i love this album he played some songs from it when i was at a concert in 2005 besides you wreck me and you don't know how it feels and loved it. i love those tunes but it was nice to hear others to great video, post more. send me some. thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Now that's a gorgeous man. :D

  • he is so freakin hot <3

  • He´s SO cute during interviews...:))

  • I love at the end when he does that little dance.

  • yeah, i've had that tape for a long time and a couple of girls have said that.
