As if yesterday wasn't bad enough, we found out that a ROCK ICON, Tom Petty has died. As Page Six notes, Petty just finished a 40th anniversary tour with his longtime band, The Heartbreakers, with whom he recorded such hits as “Breakdown,” “American Girl,” "Free Fallin'," "Don't Come Around Here No More," and “Refugee.” Petty and his band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002.
I thought I'd share one of my favorite music videos and songs from Tom Petty. "Mary Jane's Last Dance" came out in 1993, when I was only 12 and just starting to watch MTV. I was in love with it.
** I would like to note the nature of the video below may be disturbing for some, especially this week. I completely understand. I just really loved this video and the song met a lot to me in my younger years. So, please keep that in mind if you click play.**
