Tom toured for 53 days with a fractured hip. On the day he passed he was told, the hip had graduated to a full-on break. The pain would have been unbearable, leading to over use of medication. RIP beautiful soul.❤

@jcgrumman7418 The pain of a full -on break of a hip would be unbearable & unfathomable, & easily lead to over use of meds. He overcame his addiction, as evidenced by his ability to continue to be a prolific writer & put out quality albums. Tom acted as producer for other artists , played gigs from the Super Bowl to Saturday Night Live , made videos, hosted his own radio show "Buried Treasures" and mentered a band called " The Shelters" in addition to touring & planning a double album release of Wild Flowers. So I respectfully agree to disagree.

As a singer-songwriter myself, he is a very inspiring figure both in the studio and on stage, but also in the business side of things. His story, along with countless others in the music biz, should be a warning sign for all creative people entering into their careers. RIP Tom. Then again, legends never die

Tom Petty was a thorn in the side of the Music industry. He wouldn't play by the rules. He got his publishing back and negotiated a new record deal with the record company. He put out "The Last DJ", which was a highly critical musical expose about the music business. Along the way, someone burned his house down. That was a not so subtle warning to Tom.

I was born in '66 so I have grown up my entire life (since I was 13, anyway) knowing and loving Tom Petty's music. I went through those years watching these album come out one-by-one-by-one... and the Traveling Wilburys were hugely popular and well-known everywhere in the late 80s / early 90s. Their first album was Roy Orbison's final effort - so for a guy who'd been basically off of everyone's radar for most of the previous 20-25 years... it was a great to see him go out like that on a truly triumphant note (no pun intended). It really surprises me to discover in only 30 years we're now living in a world where somebody has never heard of the Traveling Wilburys... When I was a teen in the 80s and in my 20s and 30s throughout the 90s... I and my friends were all fully aware of the 50s, the 60s, and the 70s which had all come and gone before our time or - in the csse of the 70s - while we were still pre-teens. We didn't have the Internet then yet somehow we knew our musical history. It's OK in 2024 to not know who The Traveling Wilburys were... but why has that become the norm? Who hasn't been doing their job to keep the public more educated and aware? Or perhaps I should ask, "Who's been intentionally dropping the ball to ensure the public never knows this stuff in the first place?" It didn't used to be like this.

Tom Petty, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, The Traveling Wilburys, and duets with Stevie Nicks were without question some of the most creative, inventive and inspirational musicians/singer songwriters/singers of our time. Tom Petty will always live on in our hearts. His music and his accountability by exposing the greedy record executives helped many during their musical journey. If you love Tom Petty you love most of everything he ever created and the geniuses he performed with. Give me a break. The best part of this video is the painting which is really nice.

Tom Petty was suffering from a broken hip at the time of his death. He could have cancelled his tour and had surgery, but that would have taken 2 months or more to heal (plus physical therapy which would have left him homebound) and he felt that he owed it to his fans to finish the tour. He had previously kicked his heroin habit, but I imagine the pain may have thrown him off the wagon. RIP Tom...you're a legend! One of the best concerts I ever attended.

he was a recovering heroin addict who made no qualms about how he liked opiates. And then he was given all kinds of opiates, fentanyl being one along with benzos and you think he didn't KNOW what he was doing? He knew better than anyone. you can't give opiates to recovering addicts, pain or not, or you're playing with fire and Petty was seemingly getting anything HE wanted. Yes it was an accidental OD, meaning he wasn't trying to die, but he wasn't treating hip pain, he was looking for that creative bump he wanted from the opiates and when it wasn't coming he took more. He was an addict. He knew. Prince is the same. He was looking for that creative opiate bump and the pressure the weird shy guy got from his one man shows he was doing, but his fav was Percocet or oxycodone for years and years. instead..... He got fentanyl. marked as percs thanks to unknown someone on his staff. Now, he wasn't getting the bump so he took more and more and the elevator brought him down.........but he knew too. Yes, we ALL over 50 can find some pain. But addicts have what i call "forever pain" because the only way they get more is pain - nothing else will get them. They can't say they use them for the euphoric boost. It's pain, so no one REALLY knows how much pain. I have some who fake pain or exaggerate all the way to many surgeries because they KNOW surgical patients ALWAYS get opiates.

He was scheduled for surgery 2 days before he died, finally came home and the pain was unbearable. I don't think people realize how being on stage is a kind of anaesthetic sp. although when I last saw him he was visibly in pain when performing at times.

For me, he's the greatest American songwriter of the rock era. During an interview, he was asked about the "songwriting process", and I'll never forget the answer, because it was so honest yet unexpected. He said to the interviewer, "I don't like to look it in the eye". Most artists aren't honest enough to just say out loud that they really don't know where it comes from.

You just described the life of every addict. When you’re poor, you’re just another no-good worthless junkie copping out. When you’re successful, you’re just a troubled soul bravely struggling with some inner demons. When you’re poor, you OD’ed. When you’re successful, someone poisoned it with cheap Chinese fentanyl, or some unscrupulous doctor carelessly prescribed you a lethal combination of deadly drugs. It’s all the same desperate attempt to deal with emotions that we don’t know how to handle or psychological, spiritual, and/or physical pain that we can’t endure, exacerbated by a consumerist culture and mass-media marketing that convinces us that we are not enough and that life, as we experience it, will never be enough, and that joy is not the product of self-acceptance, forgiveness, gratitude, compassion and love, but a product to be bought, possessed, conspicuously displayed or consumed, while supplies last. We’re doing it to ourselves. And it’s killing the best parts of ourselves and so many of the best among us.

I was born in '66 so I have grown up my entire life (since I was 13, anyway) knowing and loving Tom Petty's music. I went through those years watching these album come out one-by-one-by-one... and the Traveling Wilburys were *hugely* popular and well-known everywhere in the late 80s / early 90s. Their first album was Roy Orbison's final effort - so for a guy who'd been basically off of everyone's radar for most of the previous 20-25 years... it was a great to see him go out like that on a truly triumphant note (no pun intended). Your video showcasing Tom's career in chronological order is well-done. It really surprises me to discover in only 30 years we're now living in a world where somebody has never heard of the Traveling Wilburys... When I was a teen in the 80s and in my 20s and 30s throughout the 90s... I and my friends were all fully aware of the 50s, the 60s, and the 70s which had all come and gone before our time or - in the csse of the 70s - while we were still pre-teens. We didn't have the Internet then yet somehow we knew our musical history. It's OK in 2024 to not know who The Traveling Wilburys were... but why has that become the norm? Who hasn't been doing their job to keep the public more educated and aware? Or perhaps I should ask, "Who's been intentionally dropping the ball to ensure the public never knows this stuff in the first place?" It didn't used to be like this.

Thanks guys. Petty's music was a huge part of my life and it's always good in my book to hear others who appreciate his legacy as well. Just wanted to point out that the reason for the od on Fentanyl can be traced back to how dedicated he was to his fans and crew. He cared so much about them that he went ahead and did the Heartbreakers 40th Anniversary World Tour even though he had a fractured hip when the tour was about to start. Through the rigors of the tour the fracture got worse and his doctors had him on Fentanyl patches so he could finish the remaining shows. It was only a week after their last show at the Hollywood Bowl that the accidental overdose happened when he was at home.

I went to pain management. This was in the 90s when the field of medicine began. The doctor eventually prescribed higher doses over time. After taking the prescribed dose for a while, it wouldn't work as well. I was on a LOT of pain meds; oxycodone and fentanyl patches. The pain management business was booming and doctors handed out meds like crazy. Doctors opened fake offices that just handed out meds. Then it came to a screeching halt and the opiod crisis began. Realistically, the "powers that be" were aware how much meds were given and allowed it. Doctors, pharmacies and drug companies made millions/billions before it ended. Unfortunately patients went through withdrawal and their pain wasn't being taken care of. A lot of former patients started buying street drugs instead causing an alarming number of OD's. The "powers that be" were aware of how much pain meds were given, did nothing for years and then stopped. And they wonder how this happened.

So now, when a person is in legit pain, they're lucky if they can get a Dr to prescribe hydrocodone or something with codeine in it because they're scared to death of people out there dr shopping trying to get pills. That being said I'm sure there's some doctors out there that are more lenient when it comes to handing out scripts for pks.

My oldest son passed away suddenly from a massive heart attack 6 years ago and it was awful he was at my home and so I had no questions other than WHY. I love Tom Petty and was listening to the petty channel and my youngest son snapped at me he didn't want to hear the song hit the regular radio station and the same petty song was playing. I was blown away rode a few miles and as we crossed the Mississippi River I looked at him and said, you have to believe Travis is here- laughing at us.
