Without a doubt, his best song. I have never been devastated by a musician/celebrity death like this. Tom Petty & HB my first rock concert, 1981. Saw him numerous other times, including Mudcrutch, the tour with Bob Dylan, 4 times in 2006 with Stevie among others. The 2006 tour will always stand out with that elegantly paced set list and bringing out the best performance in Stevie in years (esp. her insane tambo banging at end of DCAHNM).

This morning I gathered in my mind a quick list of the well-known TP songs - I challenge to name any performer with a more solid list (Breakdown, Refugee, Don't Do Me Like That, Here Comes My Girl, Even the Losers, The Waiting, Woman in Love, You Got Lucky, Deliver Me, DCAHNM, Jammin' Me, Free Fallin', Won't Back Down, Running Down a Dream, You Wreck Me, You Don't Know How It Feels, Learning to Fly, Mary Jane's Last Dance, Stop Draggin My Heart Around, I'm sure I'm missing some).

What a loss.
