| I've been a fan of Tom Petty since high school. I heard the song "Free Falling" and went out and got the album. Been into his music ever since. Anyone else? | |

| Lost my fandom when I learned that 'Mary Jane's Last Dance' was not, in fact, about necrophilia. | |

| Eh, I don't hate him. I have his greatest hits collection and that's more than enough for me. _________________ "The cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals." - Spock in the "Catspaw" episode of ToS Season 2.

| Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, up to and including Southern Accents, is top shelf, catchy Rock N Roll...beyond that, I'm not really interested. |

| Liked the hits and owned the Greatest Hits disc for a long time, but I lost interest a long time ago. _________________ I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too.

| I hated him back when he was popular and overplayed'80-86-ish. Recently I am becoming a big fan. My buddy had the new dvd thats like 8 hours of stuff and his career is pretty incredible, being the first artist to ever fight against the corporate record companies and win back in '79. | |

| I'll mention that the documentary Runnin' Down a Dream is very good too. I didn't see the whole thing (it's like 4 hours long) but I saw a good 3 hour clip and found it to be very interesting. And that's coming from a casual fan of the band. _________________ I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was.

Anyone else? Yup, I have about 9 of his CDs. As a matter of fact, I picked up "Wildflowers" for $2 bucks at a used CD shop last weekend. I can't believe I had overlooked this gem from '94. Very good... it was more back-to-basics than the Lynn produced albums (not a complaint... I love the stuff Lynn produced too). My favorite album is probably "Damn the Torpedos". | |

| I have Hard Promises by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. And Wallflowers by Tom Petty. I would like to get into more of his music, but I'm confined to these two Cd's and the hits that frequent the radio. | |

| Wildflowers is the only thing I've ever actually stolen from a store. If it makes up for it though, I bought Greatest Hits fair and square. | |

Geez, if you're gonna break the law, at least steal something cool, like a bottle of Jack and a Slayer cd. Anything's better than Tom Petty. _________________ I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was.

| He is another one of those artists that everyone seems to like ..but me. I do have alot of respect for the guy despite not liking his music, he has managed to hold on to his success for over 30 years. | |

I do have alot of respect for the guy despite not liking his music, he has managed to hold on to his success for over 30 years. Yea, I've always enjoyed his "stick-it-to-the-record-company" attitude. He's managed to carve out a nice little living for himself, doing things his way. I admire that. _________________ I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was.
