I Need To Know - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers with Stevie Nicks

From Runnin' Down A Dream 30th Anniversary Concert

[@patriciaraymond7200]

This song is one of my favorites of Tom's... Love him, love her, love them!

[@michaeltenhagen6327]

I have this concert on DVD. After he introduces the song, he says, "You've never heard this song until you've heard Stevie sing it". She killed it!

[@squonk86]

Agreed and saw this live and Stevie is my favorite female singer

[@bkswanson2461]

You can tell just how much she loves singing this song...anytime have seen her live she sings this and it effing rocks every time!! Her and Tom have great chemistry!!!

[@evelynbaron2004]

Yes! Stevie was/is the ultimate harmonizer and Tom throwing over a guy's point of view and let it run .. pure magic.

[@bkswanson2461]

@@evelynbaron2004 Yes, Ultimate Harmonizer...perfect!!!

[@ambusg2000]

Tom Petty wrote it and his band cranks and the addition of Stevie Nicks makes them a super group

[@thinman8621]

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and Stevie Nicks It doesn't get any better.

[@saintninansplace]

One of the best versions of “I need to Know”. Stevie Nicks just nailed it and Tom just lets her do her thing.

[@evelynbaron2004]

I keep repeating myself but I love friendships between men and women and this was hard won over time and eventually did remind me of my Dad's favorite big husky and our pomeranian .... he just thought of her with infinite love and benevolence and she could take cookies out of his mouth anytime. Great interpretation as always when a brilliant woman sings lyrics meant for another context; in this case Tom totally losing it over Stan Lynch fucking over the band in another place and time.

[@laurelspence6578]

she’s beeen preforming it since bella donna!!! the red rocks version is really good too

[@kristinazubic9669]

Tom’s instincts were on point giving Stevie “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around” and this song, back in 1980!

[@steverivet6958]

Awesome version. Love seeing Nicks lead this one. Tom shows that the world never has enough straight ahead 4/4 rock songs.

[@Heather-r2n]

This performance is priceless! I've seen it on axs TV, at least over 10 times. Rest in peace Thomas Earl Petty! ❤️🙏❤️🎶🌍✌️🎸😇🕊️

Amen to that, Sister!

[@johnberndt8960]

That was freakin awesome. 70s Rock and Roll at its finest.

[@jasonbates8669]

Tom Petty is so fucking classy - letting Stevie Nicks take lead on his song and just shredding it on guitar. I miss him.

[@garylindsey5174]

One of the best Stevie performances ever! She always said if Tom would've asked, she would have left Fleetwood Mac to join the HEARTBREAKERS what could have been

[@saspinks3001]

NOOOOoooooo! She was a blast to have perform with them now & then but TPaTH was perfection as it was. I love Stevie but TP's voice was unique and irreplaceable. It was & should remain the only voice of TPaTH.

[@evelynbaron2004]

@@chrisdollar5409 Of course but compare original and hers; he's pissed off at Stan Lynch breaking up the Heartbreakers and he is gunning for bear and real anguish and she wants to leave Fleetwood Mac... which she did eons ago all you have to do is move a pronoun around. Live - total blast. I always thought Stevie needed serious backup to play live but she was stellar and totally on point!!!

[@evelynbaron2004]

...... OK JUST once. Forgive me but she was a total pest and seriously for a long time a mosquito Tom kept brushing away even though she slept with Jimmy Iovine .... the mind reels and some disasters did occur due to Stevie; Dave Stewart was one; all that cocaine and a smashed hand during Rebel, Southern Accents, in the studio; he was driven enough; chain smoking continuous coffee without that. His first wife Jane was avenue 2 I don't see anywhere an apology for all that time she spent with Jane Benyo all about cocaine and sent her over the edge and turned her into the monster Tom ran away from. I know this stuff is personal but not tabloid crap; Tom authorized information when he was ready for it to get out there. Last salvo from Stevie; sending Dana, Tom's second wife while they were being cautious, cuttings portraying her relationship with Tom as sexual which prompted Dana to walk out. She pushed and pushed and I don't know why she's not even jewish because I am and I don't do that kind of stuff ever. He just accepted her like a big dog and a little pomeranian with a great woof and the friendship worked out, in his own words, when he was happy again. References; Oprah Stevie Nicks on Addiction; Tom Petty bio Warren Zanes, authorized; film doc why can't you even rent it these days ... Peter Bogdanovich Runnin Down a Dream. I am not dissing her or whatever people say these days she remains a consummate musician and my sister's hero. I like my heroes with or without feet of clay to be honest.

Tom Petty Always Loved, Never Forgotten Forever missed

[@richrinehart1083]

I recorded this concert on my DVR a while back. Stevie Nicks still sounds the same as she did years ago. Very little change in her voice. She has one of those iconic voices that you know the second you hear it. You have to Love her!

[@geralddutcher3662]

A recording I would treasure, as the audio and the song selection are both excellent!! I've heard or read that Stevie is tone-deaf!? How could that be, given her always spot-on voice whether with F/M or T/P!?

Stevie has always been a rocker..they had an amazing musical relationship..loved eachother

[@evelynbaron2004]

Yes what an unusual combination of rock people sustaining a real friendship despite gender. Unique. Of course she didn't stalk him and later try to break him and Dana up ... but she's sober now and he's dead.

[@31Alden]

The Heartbreakers may have harbored serious reservations about Stevie Nicks (or any other “girl”) becoming a member of the band, but I think Stevie’s performance might have quelled any doubts or reservations about Stevie performing with them. They rock this number and appear to be enjoying themselves. A brilliant, high-octane performance by Tom, Stevie, and The Heartbreakers.

[@pierslawrence3905]

Did y'all know that Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty had known each other for years. In fact, at the time Fleetwood Mac were constructing the Rumours album, Stevie apparently asked Tom to join his band. He said that would be a mistake, and advised her to stay in situ. And of course Rumours went into orbit! But their friendship remained....which is why he called her "our little sister" when she came on stage. Awesome!
