Tom your music is timeless and classics. RIP I will miss you❤❤

[@marcstrayer8097]

One of the very few musicians that never wrote a bad song...

[@jimduccilli1381]

FYI - Tom Petty didn't write this song. Bob Dylan did.

[@edkiely2712]

​@jimduccilli1381 They collaborated together on the lyrics while Mike Campbell created the track!

[@seisen410]

This song is relevant in 2023 as it was in 1987. With all the commercials, everything is jammed in our faces. Car commercials, movies , social Media, it doesn’t stop.

[@edkiely2712]

Exactly! It's worse, more relentless, and decadent!

[@annettestobb2847]

I agree! Also, I think we need to apply the "Simple Man" message that #LynyrdSkynyrd had given to us a lot more today and maybe take a step back from the craziness of the world to try and breathe. Maybe that'll help us find ways to make it better for all of us.

[@mikemahoney6840]

Don't forget insurance commercials

[@chaseme9860]

Little did Tom know how relevant this song would be to today's internet algorithms. We are all being jammed and it's destroying society.

[@JaxonSmithers]

Wish they'd play this on radio instead of Free Falling.

Don't matter if the rest of the world don't love this song. Everybody in here does!

[@markrani3302]

Very cool song and video

[@markneese7264]

I can't believe this song was left off Petty's greatest hits album.

[@alexkx8599]

There were a good many hits left off! There were too many plus it was the "Greatest" and not "All Of...". :)

[@1970borntorun]

Mark Neese Well his "Playback" box set was pretty killer and it's before he adopted that jangly folksie sound on Full Moon Fever if that matters to any of you.

[@RubHerSoul1]

You think that's bad? They left off A Woman in Love!

[@jocelyneke6445]

This song helped me understand a relationship I had years ago. It's all about static, excess, lying, relationships. So many images - how I love this song! Tom was so wise

[@Mato1970]

One of the band's most underrated tunes. It doesn't get enough radio airplay.

[@patwasilko8005]

I agree 100%with you.awesome video.

[@patwasilko8005]

I couldn't agree more

[@andrewbouk1324]

It reached the Billboard top 20 when it was released, not sure why it was forgotten.

[@Chrisstian111]

@@andrewbouk1324 Yes, definitely not underrated

[@kevinmcdonald6477]

Could not agree more. I think radio didn't play it much at one time for the same reason they rejected Elvis Costello's "Radio,Radio". It was somewhat subversive to AOR sentiments. Fortunately music fans who seek out great music keep tunes like this alive. Petty was if anything a fan first musician. Big time deserved R.I.P. ....Way too soon.

[@mikebrock7606]

RIP Tom.....dang.

[@jeffclark1129]

"Jammin' Me" is far more relevant TODAY than in 1987. Great Tom Petty song that, for some reason, isn't play enough nowadays. RIP Tom Petty.

[@missdarlene7]

God ! I can't get enough of this song! Just playing it over and over again !!! Sincerely Darlene

[@davidquinn2986]

I was shocked to hear of Tom's passing. He is the one I can't get over.

Saw him in 89, and what a show!!! This song was the pinnacle! Sorry this was one of last songs with the Heartbreakers. So much chemistry. R.I.P. Tom! We miss you man! Thank you for so many memories

[@jerrymeier5993]

Funny I saw them in 1989 or 1990 and the main thing I remember is they did not play Quit Jammin Me.

[@melissalawrence6397]

[@donalichtenberger9636]

Absolutely one of the best songs and video ever made. Huge message here.

[@Arturo-sm1tb]

Great rocker when turned up to the proper loud volume, and one of most memorable and INNOVATIVE music videos of the time. No one forgets it.

[@tomc2376]

in addition to the excellent songwriting and concerts, this is a reminder that TP and the guys were the best damn video artists for many years 🎶🎸🎹

[@aa306911]

Petty knows how to rock. The other heartbreakers are sooo unappreciated. I had the chance to meet Benmont Tench in Colorado a few years ago...he's a really cool guy

[@RobertGomez-fh1dp]

I've seen this group 5 times each time under the influence of mushrooms, they were very great. Always happy and always will be. I think he's responsible for reviving rock and roll. And ben won't church hell of a fucking organ player

[@scottcollins5060]

I think this is one of the very best songs that PT ever did. This song is his signature sound. Someone screwed up not putting Jammin Me top of the list. Such a injustice to the fans and the world.

[@setdrift]

because this song has cowbell....

[@thedragongamer5698]

Here's the lyrics : You got me in a corner , You got me against the wall , I got nowhere to go , I got nowhere to fall. Take back your insurance , Baby nothin's guaranteed , Take back your acid rain , Let your T.V. bleed! You're jammin' me, you're jammin' me, Quit jammin' me ! Baby you can keep me painted in a corner . You can walk away, but it's not over . Take back your angry slander , Take back your pension plan , Take back your ups and downs of your life , In raisin-land. Take back Vanessa Redgrave , Take back Joe Piscopo , Take back Eddie Murphy , Give 'em all some place to go ! You're jammin' me, you're jammin' me, Quit jammin' me ! Baby you can keep me painted in a corner . You can walk away, but it's not over. Take back your iranian torture And the apple in young Steve's eye . Yeah take back your losing streak , Check your front wheel drive! Take back Pasadena , Take back El Salvador. Take back that country club . They're tryin' to build outside my door! Like this comment if it's usefull!

[@JFPickus]

It did well on the US charts. From Wikipedia : "Jammin' Me" was released as the first single from Let Me Up (I've Had Enough) in 1987. It hit No. 1 on the Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart as well as No. 18 on the Billboard Hot 100.[6] It became Petty's third single to hit No. 1 on the Album Rock (later known as Mainstream Rock) chart and stayed there for four weeks
