What? No "Free Falling"? That was one of his biggest hits; it was popular in late 1989/early 1990.

Tough choice between two. I'll have to go with Draggin', but You Got Lucky is a close second.

Change of Heart is also a cool song. I have the live video that they used to play on MTV all of the time. I had forgotten about it until I saw that video again.

Written By: RockandRollFan on 07/08/04 at 6:15 pm

I chose "I Won't Back Down"....thinking that you meant to say "I Won't Back Down"  ??? Also I couldn't bring myself to vote for "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" as that was technically Stevie Nicks with him backing her up....it's on HER 1981 LP called "Bella Donna"

My fave is "Refugee".

Subject: Re: Tom Petty Song Poll

Written By: Marty McFly on 04/14/05 at 6:05 am

^ That's my 2nd favorite (but, man it's hard to pick here, LOL). So catchy and a bit hard rocking too.

It's easily my favorite not from the 80's, but even though it came out in 1979, it could probably pass as an "80's" song - wasn't it actually a hit in 1980? Plus, I always thought it sounded closer to 80's arena rock than to 1970's classic rock.

Just IMO. :)
