[@gingermcintosh6545]

You need to listen to The Traveling Wilbury’s song ‘end of the line’. Tom Petty at his very best.

My friend, pick any Tom Petty song. Great song writer, singer and band leader. Thank you

[@LSqrd1960]

Tom Petty was one of the great American story tellers. Dig, dig deep. You won't regret it. American Girl, Listen To Her Heart, Even The Losers, etc, etc etc....

[@seanh4841]

Amen

[@livenhfree]

Have you listened to his Wildflowers album?

[@jeanniedebartolo5965]

Tom Petty was a super star in a low key way. Loved and missed❤. I’m sure he’s making beautiful music in Heaven. RIP

[@kati-ana]

LOVE Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. My 2nd favorite band. It was a sad day when Tom died. Very sad to me.

[@phoebeandtilly]

EVERY Tom Petty song is great.

[@loadedorygun]

Dolly covered this on the recent Petty tribute and it’s glorious. Fits her, fits him, works for both because it’s such a genuine song that’s a little defiant under that southern charm. And that’s how both of them are. Second favorite album for me behind Wildflowers.

[@DaisyAnnabelle6]

I saw Tom Petty in Seattle the month before he passed away. He is my husbands favorite musical artist. The concert was so amazing when you looked around there were at least 40,000 people, just incredible! Rest in Peace Beautiful One! ❤

[@chrisjenkins6120]

🎼“I Won’t Back Down” or “Learning to Fly” are 2 of my favorites. I was born in Columbus, Ohio but have been in Alabama/Georgia and Florida since 1972… so I’m a Yankee married to a Southern Accent. I heard The Heartbreakers way back in 1973/74 in Gainesville, Florida at the University of Florida. Everybody loved Tom Petty. I mean EVERYBODY. We still do and always will.🎼☮️☯️💟

[@LoriLogic]

Tom Petty forever!!!

[@kaarenmorris8149]

Wildflowers is a masterpiece of an album, from beginning to end. Not a bad song on it and deserves to be listened to from start to finish.

[@chipsterb4946]

Benmont Tench’s piano lays the foundation for this song. Mike Campbell’s slide guitar is so tasty here. Both are phenomenal musicians who were with Petty from the beginning. I’m a Yankee who lived in Virginia for about 30 years, and Southern Accents is one of my favorite albums.

[@wayneporterfield6171]

The heartbreakers were one great band

[@wichitadisciple9874]

Not a song I would have chosen. But I love Tom Petty!

[@pollynicklas5220]

I am grateful that during the eighties I was in my twenties, and saw many many concerts. All current tours of new albums! Tom Petty was in that lineup 4 times (tours)!

[@LyndaHarris-cj1vm]

He was my favorite songwriter/singer. Super entertainer. I always got my moneys’ worth at his concerts. Very missed!!

[@bradjenkins1475]

My wife and I are huge fans of Tom petty. My wife went to see him only once without me because she went with her sister. And that was as it turns out to be his last concert before he died 3 days later, which was in L. A. So of course, the T-shirt she bought when she was there became unbelievably special to her because of what happened 3 days after the concert. Without being said, this particular song is very low on our list of ones that we will listen to have listened to or whatever. But to add to that, we love everything he did and it was a good song to listen to because it in itself had Beautiful tunes, very Simple, something in certain moods you would prefer to Listen to than some of his other stuff.

[@Jeffbambam]

Tom Petty was my Rockstar ❤🎸

[@kennethmarshall6524]

Tom Petty really one of the greatest

[@charlottedixon6628]

RIP Tom❤

[@Debcatawba]

I cried crocodile tears when I watched Dolly’s version. Love LOVE Tom Petty forever 🎩💔🎸

[@amycrouch3439]

One of my all time favorite performers ❤

[@Gashouse69]

I miss Tom Petty.

[@leceillebeckmeyer3195]

I knew I loved Tom Petty but unfortunately it took for him to be gone for me to realize just how much. RIP Dude.

[@livenhfree]

Wonderful, Polo. RIP, Tom. I took my then 24 yo son to see Petty on his 40th Anniversary tour. A few months later, he was gone. I am so grateful for that experience. Now, as a Yankee, I do agree and own the fact that we up here tend to think of southerners as "dumb," by and large. But this is the wonder and magic of music. It crosses all of humanity. And despite the fact that I have a less-than-honorable attitude toward the south, I respect Tom for sticking up for himself. Gives me a different perspective. Thank you Tom, and we miss you.

[@JoeSmith-ey2xp]

What an amazing band the HeartBreakers were.

[@samidebs3559]

Tom Petty is one of my favorite musician ,listen to is good to be king.

[@sandybourdeau9300]

One of my very favorite Tom Petty songs

[@dongiovanni6796]

Among my most favorite TP&H tracks (and I'm a yankee too!) Polo: this live version was very faithful to the studio version. Not too much different. Both impassioned and serene.

[@user-yd9vr4gl2d]

Tom petty has a massive catalog of great songs start at the beginning with. Breakdown and then American Girl etc…

[@phoebeandtilly]

I was pretty much devastated when Tom Petty passed away. He was a big part of my younger years and I loved the band.

[@classicrocklady6288]

I have this concert on DVD. The entire thing was amazing! Performed in his hometown of Gainesville Florida

[@ana34602]

A Face in the Crowd is a must listen as well as Refugee & Breakdown

[@pamlunsford544]

I love Tom Petty & I miss him so much. I thought I’d heard everything he’s done but I’ve never heard this song. Of course I love it.

[@barblunty2329]

He had a lot of awesome songs. I discovered some new songs that were not played on the radio station when I was young , "All or Nothing" . "Room at the Top " . "Two Gunslingers"

[@joltmark3612]

I consider myself a petty fan, ashamed to say don't think I've heard this one. Enjoyed the reaction. Love is a long road, breakdown, mary Jane's last dance, American girl, - too many to mention. All great!

[@marybethdugger2547]

Thanks Polo I’m from Texas. I’ve been a Tom Petty fan since the mid 70s been to tons of concerts. He has a huge catalog. I’ve read some of the replies and it’s all been said before I don’t need to repeat anything. It’s simple Tom Petty was the best and his Heartbreakers were & still are kick but ❤.

[@kennethmarshall6524]

Tom Petty is a god literally in music and message I'm 52 I love his music vet retired USMC

[@LeighMerrydayPorch]

I love that you chose this song. It's definitely in my life soundtrack, hailing from the same area of Florida. I love how everyone can relate to it, even if not Southern. But I have to say that being native to Petty's stomping grounds makes it beyond magical. "If them orange groves don't freeze..." Tom Petty was cool as hell. A Southern artist to be proud of when so many of them are so ugly.

[@sandybourdeau9300]

I’m a Yankee living in the south and I love this song

[@vickihirsch8340]

I love everything Tom Petty. I think you would like It's Good to be King.

[@stephenreiner1523]

Such a great thing about memories that linger far after the star is gone.

[@aaronhaupert3015]

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are gold. Please, more. Dylan, Prine, Petty, Forbort.

[@barblunty2329]

"Refugee", " Don't Come Around Here no more", "I won' t back down", "You Got Lucky" and anything/everything on the album Highway Companion" Important: He was in a group with Roy Orbison, Jeff Lynne, George Harrison Check out "tweeter and the monkey man" "handle with care", "Nobody's Child" maybe others can suggest more from this group

[@chipsterb4946]

The Traveling Wilburys - you left out Bob Dylan. “End of the Line” is a classic tune.

[@kathysvagdis5130]

Don't come around here no more has a fantastic video!

[@leannmiller7153]

You absolutely must react to the new video Dolly Parton just released of Southern Accents. It’s a tribute to Tom with a film, and iconic items of Tom’s that were lent by his wife. It’s absolutely beautiful. Dolly’s was the first single released from the tribute album Petty County: A Country Celebration of Tom Petty being released on the 31st. Besides Dolly, it includes Willie Nelson, Chris Stapleton, The Heartbreakers, George Straits, and many others.

[@kathysvagdis5130]

I did not know this, Yankee living in Florida, Love, Love, Love Petty.

[@leannmiller7153]

@@kathysvagdis5130 I admit I cried when I watched it. Hearing Tom talk about the song, then the film of Tom’s life running in the background….heartbreakingly beautiful ❤️💔❤️

[@andrewturnham557]

One of my favourites. Thanks Polo. And thanks Tom.

[@carolmckay9067]

Thank you Polo, Love Tom & Heartbreakers !! Huge catalog, Keep going I really think you'll love His Songs. Amazing story teller ❤️❤️

[@TeriKaiDesigns]

Pretty much anything Tom Petty did is stellar. He was the absolute best.

[@seanswinton6242]

I agree. Tom Petty's albums are a huge part of the soundtrack of my life. I discovered him in junior high. When MTV launched I became a monster fan! Attending his concerts were a regular thing. I met him at LIVE AID. Great man!

[@kennethmarshall6524]

Texan born n bred retired USMC veteran Tom Petty is one of the best

[@JohnLennon99791]

Tom Petty born 10/20/50 in Gainesville, Florida

[@davidmcdevitt9071]

Loved Tom, probably my overall favorite artist.

[@JBAKER97]

Tom Petty was a cool dude! One of coolest.

[@danielfolkens5639]

Love Tom Petty storytelling. Just got a funny memory getting to know a new neughbor. I saidthat my east tx accent had been lessened by several years in MN, WI and CA. His response was - Really? Seems you just can't lose it.

[@paulbarden1895]

Try" Free falling" by Tom Petty

[@violetfemme411]

This made the tears come....💜

[@user-gu1zb6cw6t]

Thanks Polo anything from Petty is great with me! The studio version is similar, just a little more polished of course. He has another, a little more upbeat southern ode called Rebels.

[@anngladstone9130]

My favorite Tom Petty song would be Don't Come Around Here No More ❤ Would love to hear you cover it.

[@AFL67pitt]

So powerful brings me to tears cause he’s gone now

[@shalea976]

On 'Southern Accents' tracks 3 'Spike' and 6 'Don't Come Around Here..' are good listening as well.

[@jimcrawford3221]

Tom Petty was the man. However, each time I hear the words "southern accents" I have to think of the late, great comedian Tim Wilson. He was so funny. I got to see him live a couple of times and I laughed till I cried.

[@sandrafazackerley9526]

Simply beautiful ❤

[@kevinfarrell3121]

I love all Tom Petty tunes, but this is my favorite. I’m very not southern too. Born and raised in New York, but spent my last 25 years in Nashville. Yeah, unfortunately they are still fighting the civil war in the south. I think we studied the civil war for a day in school in New York. I didn’t know anything about it when I moved here!

[@violetfemme411]

American Girl is my favorite Tom Petty song. I think you'd like it too 💜

[@lawrencesampson3996]

This the album that got me hooked on TP. Love it.

[@RussellStClair-cy1vu]

This whole album is awesome ! The live Pack up the Plantation is bitchen !

[@wroberts8323]

One of my all time favorite albums

[@MamawT65]

I’m from the south in East Tennessee but I love your channel ❤!

[@Debcatawba]

Great reaction. Now that you’ve heard this beautiful Tom Petty song give a listen to Dolly Parton’s version. You’ll be doubly blown away!

[@annheckenbach9396]

That's a Florida southern accent, I grew up an hour outside of Gainesville, Tom's hometown. It differs really from state to state in the south. I live in Tn. now and it's totally different. P.S. Some southerners call all soda a "coke".

[@BernardHodgson]

They've been playing the Dolly Parton cover of this recently in the UK.

[@Merzui-kg8ds]

I love that your Petty initiation was with a piece that is not in his top 5. Because you get to now experience his top 5! It would also be interesting to see your reaction to The Traveling Wilburys, an ensemble that Petty sings with.

[@billbibber1278]

You love his voice, and he was always said to think his voice was not good.

[@DaisyAnnabelle6]

My favorite song of Tom Petty is Refugee ❤

[@mysticpanther069]

Hardy with Lainey Wilson "Wait in the Truck"....official video will leave you speechless

[@bobwoolerOriGinal]

If you appreciate good driving music, try Saving Grace by Petty👍 The first verse is you driving trough your neighbourhood heading for the highway. From the second verse, you're on the highway.

[@Paul-gv6qd]

Jane's Addiction "Three Days"

[@wichitadisciple9874]

“STOP” “Mountain Song”

[@dougww1ectebow]

Not sure, but I think this was from his last tour. He's looking sorta haggard here, working on a fractured pelvis. Tom was all about the fans. A bittersweet performance.

[@GayleKazanis]

Wow ❤ country Tom petty ❤ grandma likes Mary Jane ❤ peace Polo ✌️...

[@dbasstij512]

From Hawaii, home of the most southern accent...

[@preachervideo]

The Steel Woods covered this impeccably.

[@beefcakes27]

This is a song I describe a pretty and it slows you down lto listen like early Neil Young.

[@loadedorygun]

PS the bridge makes me nearly but not quite cry every time.

[@alpine1600s]

Some parts of the South it's "coke" for any soda.🤣

[@wayneporterfield6171]

Check out the Dolly Patron version of this song. It will break your heart

[@diggityDan74]

I've been in love with this song since I was a kid! You should check out Dan Fogelberg Leader of the Band, I think you'd really like that, amazing story too.

[@brendabowman622]

'Leader of the Band' hit me a little hard because of the "and I'm in Colorado, if I'm not in some cheap hotel" because my siblings refused to make the effort to come for a visit because it was "so far away". They'd annually spend thousands of dollars to go to Disney World, but they they thought that driving/flying to Denver was "too much" of an expenditure.

[@AFL67pitt]

You wanna hear a song about Yankees listen to REBEL from the same Album Southern Accents Also the Album cover is a very cool piece of artwork looks like a Van Goeh painting

[@CareyTisdal]

More Tom Petty!

[@marybethbrown7944]

Try some earlier tracks-Last Dance with Mary Jane or Free Fallin’. But you got it right-which song almost doesn’t matter. The voice is the thing.

[@PROBUDMAN]

Please, please go down the Tom Petty rabbit hole. Hes one of my faves. Just pick one. For once Polo, I dont care. Hes an American Icon

[@michaelmueller8772]

Man, you should hear Johnny Cash's version of this, backed by the Heartbreakers!

[@tomferrante8002]

Have you heard The Last DJ by Tom Petty! If not give it a listen, you can thank me later! Great channel Polo!

[@emerald1805]

Tom Petty has a MUCH better song called “Rebels” from this same album. It’s lyrics are tremendous. It was a hit single.

[@kennethmarshall6524]

Our culture in the south is definitely different..mmmm yeah you went to the south food wise ..

[@kathgygiammalvo9248]

Polo! Please, please please. Would you play Chris Cornell's live version of Billie Jean with his band? I would love to hear your reactions and opinion.

[@shybutterfly_]

Hello! Came across your channel as I was looking for good reaction videos. Must say you have kinda cool & genuine vibe. Your reactions don't look like forced overreaction, Lol I do believe that music transcends language and national borders. Art is Art after all, right! 😊 So if you are open to other genres then may I request you for a reaction to 'COME BACK TO ME', the latest Indie single by Rapper, Singer, songwriter RM. The music video itself is a whole Cinematic treat to watch! Directed by Emmy awardee director-writer Lee Sung Jin. The song has already broke records within 24 hrs of release debuting at #1 on worlwide itunes chart as well as it was #1 on Trending videos on KZbin gathering critical acclaim too. I'd really appreciate if you would react to the song. His new album Right Place Wrong Person, is releasing on May 24th. And yes, I wish you all the best for your channel :) ❤

[@VickiS-7080]

Another artist gone too soon.☹️

[@ripvanwinkle2002]

and no one to replace him...

[@GayleKazanis]

Grandma in Canada called me a Yankee ❤ it's Pop ❤ ✌️ Polo...

[@christinalong5786]

Gizzard s are nasty! Dude don't eat a lot of southern food! I love collards but most people cook them so much that they are nasty. I love you. Beware of the special church family in the southern states. GOD BLESS.

[@user-vb1xl1bi7j]

Tom has a fantastic rep as a song writer . . .this is among my least favourite . . and still good.

[@kathysvagdis5130]

I love an ode to, this is it

[@smd2169]

Tom was unabashedly Southern; but was really able to describe what that means-both good and bad. Check out “Down South”, “Rebels”, Red River”, “Saving Grace”…
