Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers To Find A Friend Comments
  1. j.... ....

    miss you old friend

  2. e.... ....

    RINGO is playing drums on this one

  3. N.... P....

    29 people do not know what a real song is. One of the greatest.

  4. T.... ....

    My friend brought me here....
    the day I am super hurt 😔

  5. K.... O....

    This is a song Paul McCartney would have been proud to write. Pure melody brilliance.

  6. S.... W....

    Theres not one song on Wildflowers that doesnt make you tap your toes or sway your body--and reflect on life.
    What a legend

  7. N.... L....

    Tom Petty you are the BEST!!!! ❤️✌🏻 RIP

  8. J.... ....

    Rip Tom Petty

  9. D.... B....

    Tom was a master storyteller. I will truly miss his music, stage presence, & sense of humor. Choosing a favorite song is like trying to choose a favorite child. It's impossible! Dana York Petty, love you girl! ❤️

  10. T.... K....

    featuring great drum work not from Steve ferrone or Stanley but the one and only Richard Starkey😎
    yes indeed Rick Rubin who produced this landmark album brought in Ringo to sit behind the kit on this one😃

  11. V.... B....

    Sounds like Simon and Garfunkel

  12. D.... B....

    his best song imo

  13. M.... C....

    Some guy called Ringo Starr was drumming on this track? I just wondered if someone could confirm?

    M.... C....

    It's true

  14. t.... t....

    In the middle of his life
    He left his wife
    And ran off to be bad
    Boy, it was sad
    But he bought a new car
    Found a new bar
    And went under another name
    Created a whole new game

    And the days went by like paper in the wind
    Everything changed, then changed again
    It's hard to find a friend
    It's hard to find a friend

    Meanwhile then
    His wife's boyfriend moved in and
    Took over the house
    Everybody was quiet as a mouse
    And it changed their lives
    Changed their plans
    Slowly they grew apart
    Boy, it woulda broke your heart

    And the days went by like paper in the wind
    Everything changed, then changed again
    It's hard to find a friend
    It's hard to find a friend

  15. K.... O....

    Losing Tom Petty was like losing my father. His songs have given my life so much.

  16. B.... R....

    To Find A Friend..

  17. e.... b....

    With reference to eloquent post from Seamus Jones see below. Anniversary of Tom Petty`s passing, I know officially oct 2: cannot top what was so eloquently written last year but want to testify to powerful influence of this wonderful music in my family`s life over the years. I`m 62 and my Dad loved him! He spoke to the heart. We are living in uncertain divisive times politically; here we find emotional honesty of a rare and much treasured kind. Tx Seamus Jones (my Dad was a lot like you) and tx above all Tom Petty: know you loved your dogs; have new puppy inquisitive and full of life. Day of sorrow and celebration of your life.

  18. w.... m....

    like paper in the wind

  23. A.... F....

    What a great album. R.I.P. Tom Petty.

  24. M.... G....

    'Wildflowers' is a masterpiece. Transcends time and forever a classic. 'Wildflowers' was the Father & Bride dance song at my daughter's wedding... by her choice. This CD has been in my car player for about 3 years now. Thank you TP for the words and music from your soul to mine. Peace.

  25. M.... S....

    1976 I became a Tom Petty disciple, I'm lost without him.

  26. T.... D....

    Wow ....one of the songs my dad use to play and sing to us after he became sober!! Tom Petty has always been in the background of my life !! His music will truly live on forever💗🎩💗 Thanks for sharing this and I couldn't have needed to hear it as much as I did today💞

  27. J.... G....

    My fav Tom song. Everyone needs a friend

  28. a.... ....

    "It's hard to find a friend", how true is this statement.

  29. J.... P....

    In the middle of his life

    I remember riding around in my Mom's 1991 maroon Dodge Caravan listening to this on cassette in 1994-1995. Those were the days. Now that I'm older and fully understand the meaning of the lyrics, it makes it that much more special to me. RIP Tom

  43. T.... M....

    An amazing song from a man that pretty much wrote the songbook on life and experiences for the young and old alike. Thank you Mr. Petty.

  44. M.... �....

    R.I.P. Tom. I hope you'll find your friends on the other side.

  45. X.... M....

    RIP Tom Petty

  46. J.... M....

    Being a fan of 12-string Rickenbacker guitars, The Byrds, The Beatles & The Traveling Wilburys, Tom Petty's music was a natural gravitational force for my formative years as a songwriter. While in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Jared, Devin and I (The Naturals) listened endlessly to Tom Petty's 1994 masterfully beautiful album Wildflowers and took notes on how to write songs. While it's hard to pick a single song to signify the sadness felt as well as his influence, I have to say RIP Tom Petty, I keep "Crawling Back To You". It's really so much more than "Only A Broken Heart". #tompetty #onlyabrokenheart #restinpeace

    J.... M....

    I've been blessed to have purchased a 12 string Rick in 2005 that went out of production, and now a vintage classic. Started on an Ovation 12 acoustic in '76... hard to beat the sound of a 12 string. Wrote many tunes on them. Peace.

  47. P.... G....

    The first Tom Petty song that I heard. Today I read the news about his death. Travel lightly, you great guy!

  48. I.... N....

    RIP to an absolute legend
    You broke our hearts today. Thanks for the music Tom.

    I.... N....

    He was a Heartbreaker.

    I.... N....

    Saw him live one week before the end.

  49. m.... ....

    RIP Tom Petty This is one of my favorite songs by you. You will be missed dearly!

  50. c.... ....

    RIP Tom

  51. K.... O....

    Wildflowers, Full Moon Fever, and Highway Companion are among the best albums ever made. Please anyone seek them out and be rewarded by the master of melody.

  52. S.... J....

    my eldest was born that year...wildflowers is about her, she paints...wildflowers. I wish I could rock her to sleep on my giant forearm like I did 23 years ago, I'm so happy my kids are in my life, I really don't deserve it. guess most of us don't, funny thing family, love, forgiveness, change, time. guilt, shame remorse, peace, reckoning, death. human eh...

    S.... J....

    outlaw Seamus
    That was fucking real dude. Nice.

    S.... J....

    Be good to her.

    S.... J....

    You are not alone. I love this music because it is so emotionally honest. I lost my Dad too soon to Alzheimer, the smartest man in any room; he gave me my first Bob Dylan album; he loved my mum and she died a year after him. When I read the Petty bio I was so sad, so, so sad. It brought out in me how much I missed my family. And the antidote was there -- in his music.

    What Tom Petty teaches me every day is to be mindful and creative. I know he had some access to inspiration --- 90 percent perspiration also, and as articulate and analytic as Benmont Tench is, there is something so deep in this music and without that fulcrum it would not happen. Remarkable band, unlooked for and glorious experience. My Dad would have loved The Kings Highway. Tx Seamus Jones you did me a world of good!

    S.... J....

    Bless your soul.

  53. J.... F....

    This kinda sounds like Dylan's "blowing in the wind"

    J.... F....

    Tom Petty's work was very folk-influenced, and he worked closely with Dylan when the Traveling Wilburys were a thing.

    J.... F....

    It sounds more like Simon and Garfunkel to me.

  54. C.... W....

    What is it about this song - once it gets you you're hooked for life! :)

    C.... W....

    Like so many other songs on Wildflowers.

  55. J.... V....

    I was 14 when I first heard this. Am now 37 and this song still makes me stop and listen. There's this tragic melancholy to it...

  56. K.... O....

    This song is pure brilliance. No other than word than brilliance. Not ashamed to say I love you tp for your endless brilliance. You make my life hopeful and enriched.

  57. J.... M....

    I'm all out of friends...

  58. T.... K....

    My life SUCKS that much that it would be nice if green day would take me to tom. MY LIFE IS HEL!!! I don't want to die BUT Iam a real Jesus person & it looks like I'm NOT going to make it BUT I was focked with SO MUCH the last 2 months!!! I don't know what to do having NO resources that my family made sure I did NOT!!! I don't know what to do! I'm focked! DAMN!!! How can I make it with NO help at all?😨😰😱😖😩😫😟😪😥

    T.... K....

    hey if you're having trouble reply to this comment and we can talk. I can be a friend to talk to.

  59. R.... D....

    And I don't mean tom petty, I love this album and song, I just mean the decline in general.

  60. R.... D....

    This album came out the same year as me,Pretty much the decline started back in 94

  61. M.... J....

    o my heart. I like you Tom like my dog. perfect you are. ...

    Lyrics
    In the middle of his life
    He left his wife
    And ran off to be bad
    Boy, it was sad
    But he bought a new car
    Found a new bar
    And went under another name
    Created a whole new game

    And the days went by like paper in the wind
    Everything changed, then changed again
    It's hard to find a friend
    It's hard to find a friend

    Meanwhile then
    His wife's boyfriend moved in and
    Took over the house
    Everybody was quiet as a mouse
    And it changed their lives
    Changed their plans
    Slowly they grew apart
    Boy, it woulda broke your heart

    And the days went by like paper in the wind
    Everything changed, then changed again
    It's hard to find a friend
    It's hard to find a friend
